When I wanted to completely clean our boat bottom I considered soda but the head painter recommended sand.

From my perspective, this is a few boaters that like to travel places, meet and exchange ideas and experiences, along with a chance to show off their boat. I met Paul and other Trojan owners 2 years ago at the "official" Chesapeake rendezvous put on by a group that used to arrange a big re...

Hi Jamie,
We don't travel very fast and kinsale is about 100 NM from the rendezvous. When we get closer to the departure date we'll firm up plans. I'm hoping to stay at the Capital Yacht Club in DC.

I think Paul is trying to get to the rendezvous by car and then boat back to kinsale with us. Anyone want to give he and his lady a ride? After the rendezvous we plan to go up the Potomac to DC. Anyone else up for that?

Our AC strainer is a Groco small. I went to Groco directly and found that they had small(AC and Generators), mediun(for the 454'6) and large for diesels. Any Groco dealer should have the replacement gasket you need.
