Sharp boat Tony! http://britestaryachts.com/images/albums/NewAlbum_34e56/tn_FinalCut_Ver7_50OpenBridgeTower.jpg Power? Thanks! MTU, CAT, Cummins and Iveco have all been out to the shop and done the plans for their engine(s). Just based on the power curve and price, I'd have to go with Iveco. Their ...

JuiceClark, Pacemaker never used any hulls from Trojan, they built their own. Now Egg Harbor did buy their fiberglass hulls from Pacemaker Oh yeah...that's who I was thinkin' of! There someone did. With Warnike that makes at least two. The more I look at that 44, the more I like that builder. The n...

Thanks Ross...didn't explain myself well in that last post. Making the new molds was brutally laborious and expensive, but we still spent less than half of having another company make the plug for us. The molds are mostly all done. I told the guys I'd start marketing the boat when unemployment turns...

I'm pretty sure Pacemaker used the F-36 hull - had a brainf*art when I said Uniflight. That fire-proof resin blisters so badly that it really makes a USCG approved boat unattractive....still haven't invented a fix for it today. After paying for 4 guys to create a new hull mold (took 3,000 sheets of ...

Sir thanks for your response. The boat is listed on yachtworld. The listing says the boat is a Trojan/Warnike so I ask the agent what the Warnike meant and he had no clue. Well after a further search I found the son of Mr Warnike who told me his father built about 5 of these boats for Trojan using ...

Juice , you need to tell how you get 5 years . some of us know but others don't . If you think Juice keeps his boat in a swiming pool your very close to the anwnser . I wish I knew how to pull up one of those old posts that describe my "barnicle bunker." Barnacles feed on things flowing i...

Love that boat. I've mentioned another 44 sportfish that was for sale up in Canada on here before. The eisenglass was probably on when they tested it...will slow it down a couple knots. I like the small keel, the cockpit set-up and the flybridge helm are superb. The teak and holly floors are great, ...

I have this old horse that came original with the boat: http://www.goodwindlass.com/Products/ropewindlasses/ropewindlasses.htm#topofpage It's slow, loud and kinda ugly. However, I can't break it. Even when it stopped working once, it only took 10 minutes to pull it apart and find a broken set screw ...

I'm sorry ... but I just couldn't help post the toilet paper on my boat. It seems to make the macerator run smoother: http://www.jeremyinc.com/BarackObamaToiletPaper.html

I'm on FIVE years now with no bottom job. :wink: I do still put on the scuba gear and dive under there about every six months to replace zincs and give a scrape. There's usually a few tiny barnacles on the props...but the only place they really grow with this contraption is right inside the V-shape ...

I hate the government demanding a license and, consequently, a fee for everything. Boating is one of the last facets of human life that contribute to natural selection. If someone blows up because of improper maintenence or slams a piling while drunk in the middle of the night, we should just be gla...

I took a good look at that NuTeak at the IBEX boatbuilders show in Miami last fall and it really does look pretty good. I think that's as close as they'll ever get to making a board from plastic. Guys standing around there said it looks even better after you beat it up for a couple years. However, t...
