Not corny I like it. Leave the rib there for a heck of a bumper!

Understand. I can't see the back from the pilot house nor the sky bridge. But wanted to use the cameras for looking at a scale of a few feet away From the rear swim platform but with good comments regarding lack of depth perception the use as a backup camera is limited it sounds. But using...

Imoressive! perhaps makes it to easy? I still need a little excitement in life...

All, my apology for not including the quote message in reply....I am sloooowly gaining posting experience.....

We have plenty of space so a separate display would work fine. Our chart plotter is an older Netnav system with the infamous iPad backup. I guess we could run the cameras thru one or the other but the screens get busy. Thank you!

Gosh, I wish I had a back window! I'm jealous. Even steering from the fly bridge I can't see the back in very tight quarters.

Thanks! We will look into.

I wish my wife had that confidence in me. Lol As I mentioned she's smart.

Thanks! Appreciate the link. We will look into it.

That makes perfect sense. The detail needed for effective back up camera would require multiple cameras. My wife has been preaching about the wireless headsets, but at the same time it was her idea for the back up cameras. She quite smart, I see her advice as her saying why weren't you looking...

Thanks, just trying to avoid running the wires. So far that sounds like the best way to go.

We have a 62 Norland, that's why we can't afford to hire the help!! LOL

We are looking for advice for an easy install back up camera. I assume a 12v wireless system would make sense. All advice is appreciated!

Thank you I definitely need to add more information We will be using them mostly while underway without wifi.... backup camera, engine room gauges and the like.

We are just starting to look at installing cameras on our boat and trying to avoid as much wires as we can. Recommendations, please!

Much more room for road with a mix of chain and cable on the drum. Stainless because i didn't buy it, nice though I'll try the "knot" with nylon on inch line and let you all know if it works, i.e. Doesn't slip Thanks,

The drum is very similar to the nes pictured on the link referenced above. I would like to post a picture put I need to find out how to upload a pic to the cloud it appears to post here (any advise on this aspect is greatly appreciated) No toothed wheel and pawl just the friction wheel. As you...

Thanks all I apologize I had my wisdom teeth out at 52. Screwed up my sinuses and barely van read the post Exactly, snub to stainless cable Its electric it is only one way perhaps a winch The entire rode is on a drum as you mentioned. It has a hand wheel that engages a friction clutch...

Gotcha. I would like to tie a bridle to two very robust cleats. I need help a figuring out how to attach it to the stainless cable Thank you

All I have a Nordlund 62 with a chain and stainless cable rode. How can I tie off the cable when on anchor to ease off pressure on the Windlass? Thanks!

Jim, stupid question what is a KK48?

All great advise. We are tweaking the list, making arrangements to visit Anacortes. With regards to the Hatteres, i like the lay out, escpecially the aft state room. Makes fishing a little bit tougher. The upgrades sounds great. ...I am warry of the 2cyl detroits? all...

Great advise and recomenations......Old Deckhand see you in Sitka, we will be up the second week of june...

KTDTX, thanks! We will look her up. A 52 North Pacific fits the criteria great.......maybe a budget stretch, but beautiful boats.....

Duration in Seatle isnt set yet, three days to a week most likely. A re-powered new tanked, Ocean Alaxander 50 Mk I would be great!..... Although, we are leaning towards less teak ( I would still jum at an Ocean Alaxander), good space (liveaboard ultimately, possibly Sitka), Three...
