Marlene and I spent Saturday night eating steak at the Fort Walton Yacht Club with the Power Squadron. This morning we left cruising on CHARITY east and stopped today (Sunday) at Port St. Joe, Florida. We plan to spend two or more days here and then on to Apalachicola, Florida. We will keep you...

Bill and Brenda Russell: Sounds like you are having a wonderful time. Marlene and I (Dave Mason) on CHARITY wish we were cruising with you. Maybe next year we can schedule a gathering with some advance notice and we will join the group. I sure do miss the Gulf gathering.

Radar - $2,000 to $4,000 Ski Mirror with Suction Cups - $39 Money in your pocket PRICELESS!!! :lol:

I will add my 2 cents worth on a review mirror. I bought a wide angle ski mirror from West Marine. The suction cup was hard plastic and it would not stay stuck to the smooth surface of the console. I took a pine 2/4 and cut the corners round, fastened the mirror with screws, bought soft silicon...

:lol: I would recommend shopping at the West Marine store in Honolulu, phone # 808-845-9900. The Fulton 1500 is priced in the 2010 catalog on page 722 for $79.99. Buying a new one is easier than trying to fix an old one. Also you might try the Trailer SuperParts Store a division of Eastern...

My insurance is with Boat US. Here in Florida we are always dodging hurricanes. Boat US is very quick and good when you file a claim, no hassle. I chose them because of past experience, I trust them. Their rates are reasonable. Always get an agreed policy. Some of the other companies weasel on...

:lol: Congratulations Marc on adding Johnny Floyd to your employment. Wefings is the finest and best boat dealer in the US. You sell boats right and you give fine service. :lol:

Try West Marine Express store in Friday Harbor (360) 378-1086. Look on page 642 and 643 in the new 2010 catalog and see if any of the parts will work for you. :lol:

For 7 wire cable try McMaster Carr in Atlanta, GA. They will cut any lenght and ship it to you. Also try easternmarine.com "Super Trailer Parts Store" they have "50 foot of ABS Green Lectraflex 7 Conductor Wire #3-326" :lol:

There are 10 West Marine stores in the Seattle area. Take your AFI parts off of your boat and take them to a WM store and they will help you buy the correct parts. We have all of the AFI parts hanging on a shelf in our WM store in Florida. Good Luck! :lol:

I work for West Marine and they have all the AFI parts in stock. If there is a store close to you, stop by, otherwise go online to westmarine.com and look at the AFI products. They sell new wiper blade inserts, wiper blades, arms, motors, etc. :lol:

Well no matter how many times you check and double check and proof read, you always make a mistake. The McMaster-Carr page showing the Barbed Hose Fitting should read NPT 3/8" female thread and not BSPP 3/8" ... This fix really works. Thanks for the comments.

My 2008 C-Dory 25 has a Sandvik shower that one of the hose connections leaked. The plastic adapter when tightened jumped a thread and could not be fixed. I tried many ways using caulking etc., but were not successful. I plugged the hoses and would fix it later. Well later came and I finally...
