    electrical cable cutter recommendations

    boat cable cutter I've had good luck with my Craftsman Anvil Cutter. It uses a replaceable razor blade. With a fresh blade it cuts 4.0 like butter without smashing the cable or leaving a deformed end that wont fit in your lug. It's useful for lots of other things around the boat too.

    He's talking about Gates Fleetrunner belts. That's all I run.

    Broker tactic?

    That's why I think it's a good idea to use a buyers broker. Find a broker that you like and let him make the initial contacts for you. If you eventually purchase the boat he gets part of the commission the seller pays.

    Partially Submerged

    Think about where that salt water went that cannot be cleaned, like between the engine cradle and the stringers. Does it have steel fuel tanks? They could corrode on the back side or bottom where you can't see. I walked away from a Defever 49RPH for just those reasons.

    Catalina line of Chris Craft

    I've lived on my 1988 CC 381 for 8 years. Very comfortable double cabin layout. The downside is the gas engines.

    Is blistering a common problem with the Mirage trawlers?

    Great Harbour N37 Young America at our dock yesterday

    How are the Mirage n37 boats away from the dock. Do you run your genset all the time to power the household appliances?
