Re: Boat Insurance

Re: 4" bilge blower repairs
Fresh air shoud be drawn in from vents while blowers are exhausting existing air from the compartment. I am not aware of any need for blowers to be used in supplying fresh air.

Re: 4" bilge blower repairs
My blower sounds like an M1A1 tank at full throttle. My plan is to replace with Inline.
Found al the parts I need for conversion online and have ordered. I have an F-26, so not sure what other models would require.

Re: Radar & MFD
Paul, Sounds like you have put some thought into what you want a system to provide you! I am still running components and from different mfg's. I run a JRC 1000 Mk II on my F-26 ( and my Sabre ) which give me up to 16 mile view. I am happy with, and most concerned with target seperation at close ran...

Re: Clean machine on ebay (va )
Imagine showing up to your marina to find someone on your boat
they look at you and reply: what do you mean "your" boat, I just bought this from Randy!
I'm calling scam, and furthermore, no one should ever buy a boat without inspecting it

Re: F-26 Wiper Motor
I traced my power to the positive lead and have 12.5 volts at the motor, and tried jumping the ground.
Motor still did not turn so I assumed bad motor. I think I will wait until I head back out and try to bench the motor straight off the battery before I invest in a new one.
Thanks for the advice

F-26 Wiper Motor
Hoping someone can help me with standard replacement advice for wiper motor replacement. It appears that I have a single speed AFI motor ( MRV I think) from Marineco. I left the boat without measuring shaft length and would like to buy a replacement motor before I go back out. Anyone replaced the mo...

Re: My First Trojan
We are staying in Kewaunee. My options for Algoma would be limited to the city marina and most of the charter traffic has moved there. I have heard good things about Kewaunee and am looking forward to the change as we have been in algoma for the last 15 years. I am very familiar with Overboard, Ric ...

Re: My First Trojan
Sadly, I have enough rods to fill all available space in the launchers and deck. :shock: We are located on Lake Michigan out of Kewaunee WI and will be primarily fishing for Salmon and Trout. With a full crew on board(6) we can run 18 lines. Just NO SHARP TURNS! Gladd to hear about the toe rails and...

I debated whether to commission a survey , however I am glad I did as it found several deficiencies that I was able to build into the purchase price. Good surv...
