strange how a XM radio or your gps can pick up a satellite but you need a dish for TV . maybe in a few years ? Funny you should say this, Paul. Martine Rothblatt, who invented both the receiver equipment and the development of the spectrum that Sirius/XM use, has been working on this for over two y...

I have a 4'6" draft sailboat that I get in and out easily at high tide, the owner of the house has a Bertram 26 that he used to get in and out anytime. Of course it hasn't been off the lift since Isabelle paid us a little visit...

Doug, there's a Hatteras just like that up here in Nabbs Creek, been sitting for at least 4 years. Twin 454s, two staterooms, galley down, two party decks. The guy shows up under threat of auction three times a year and pays his back rent but the boat has been partially stripped by thieves. Absolute...

Welcome Torcan! Another 1980 HTE owner!

I've already faced up to the fact that it's not going to happen until we get a thaw. Tides have been pretty low.

Allen, back of the main, Maywood Cove, about 300' from Compass Point GC.

OK I'm back, stopped at Cobe, they have it on the shelf for $184 will pick it up tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

Didn't. Cobe was closed when I got in last night, tied up all day. Leaving for Ft Myers at dawn. It will wait. But thanks for asking.

I'll be back in MD tomorrow, plan to swing by Cobe if they're still open. Thanks. Oh, and I'm at Maurgale.

When you pay $5 per foot per month wet and $4 per foot per month dry, no survey, no insurance and no questions, you have to take the bad with the good. Unfortunately the bad is alcoholism, drug addiction, violence and stupidity. One of the drunks cooked a Mainship last weekend by overamping a shore ...

Well, I get no support from my marina, can't upload pics from my phone, I'm stuck in West-By-God for a few days, no internet or cel in the valley and as soon as I get out of here it's off to FL for a week. Looks like it's not going to happen. Thanks for the encouragement, advice and the messages, fo...

I have pictures of the starter, the back of the bell housing and will post some numbers as I get them. I am off-site for a day or three on another project and have very spottty internet, but I do have cel service. If I can upload to photobucket from my reclaim, I'll post pictures tonight. Otherwise ...

So I have had zero luck finding a starter to fit my 350. But I have found a bell housing with an bottom slung starter and the correct flywheel to match.

Still hoping to move her down to the Bodkin before Christmas...

The exhaust isn't fresh water cooled. The the block and manifolds are cooled by ethyl glycol in a closed loop, just like a car engine. The raw water that cools the glycol in a heat exchanger is then dumped into the risers and exits through the exhaust.

And to you.
