Hi Mike, Great Kills is a good place to be stuck. Very easy to visit the city from there on the express bus. You'll need $11 in quarters though, unless you're seniors, then it's half price. But I guess you know that. Well, since you're stuck, try to make the best of it. I'm in Atlantic City. If I ca...

Hi, Did that leg last week. We went straight from Great Kills to Atlantic City, about 90nm. It was an easy motor-sail with light winds on the nose, until we got past Barnegat inlet, then the wind picked up to 18-20 and really slowed us down. Got into A.C. around 11pm. If I had it to do again, I woul...

Hi Chet , Thanks for the wiring diagrams. My boat was originally wired to 2 APC Smart Outboard Regulators, that don't seem to be working. I have the literature, but it doesn't tell how to wire the engines. APC seems to be on the rocks, so I can't get any info from them. So, now I'm thinking to just ...

[quote="David West"]For the past few years my masthead anchor light has not worked but I have been content to use a plug-in light hoisted about ten feet above the Bimini top. This now does not satisfy the US Coast Guard regulations, despite being more suitable for the tight nooks that I us...

I must have connected it incorrectly, because it's not working. None of the wiring diagrams show how this wire is connected. ...

I just bought a 2001 T9.9 tiller model that I have to convert to remote. I have the elec. harness (6G8-82590-00-00), but I'm not sure where to connect to. If I unplug some existing connections to plug in the harness wires, what happens to the old wires?
Can't seem to figure it out.
Thanks, Marc

Hi Mark, I just saw your reply to my question on the value of 9.9 Yamaha's. Sorry I didn't see it before the board went belly up a week or so ago. They are the long shaft, high thrust 4 strokes . I had one offer from a marina for $250 a piece, but I think I would keep them as spares at that price. ...

Chesapeake Yachting Center, off the Middle River has some slips that are wide enough for a 36. Very nice, gated, pool. Also may have some T-heads. Located in a protected hurricane hole.

Just a note on battery voltage. 12.0 volts shows 25% charge, 12.6 is 100% charge. Don't ask me why.
