Check out Project Brupeg on Youtube. They are rebuilding a sunken trawler into an expedition vessel and added that type of stabilizer.

Hi, Installed that windlass on my prior boat, a 43' Pearson Portsmouth. Had 25' of chain and 150' of 5/8 3 strand nylon. Windlass worked flawlessly for the 3 years I owned the boat. Only negative is the chain stripper is a thin piece of plastic that immediately broke. Never replaced it as...

Beautiful boat. I owned a 1963 Cheoy Lee Monterey Clipper troller, designed after your Monterey. Similarity is pretty amazing.

Happy New Year everyone. It's been quite a while since my last post. From my last post until haul out last October, I got just about everything I hoped to accomplish done. The new enclosure was completed. The workmanship was fantastic. Structure is 1-1/4" stainless tubing and built more...

Kit_L, good morning. Just confirmed your original link to Kiwi, as well as the one I sent you, both work on my computer. Must be something blocking your access on your system. I just discovered that the original Seapiper site is gone. The enclosure and a bimini set up was offered on that...

Hi Kit L, Herman showed his enclosure to Ritzo, who asked him for approval to use it, which he granted. I also asked Herman for approval to use it, which he granted, as well as linking me to loads of photos he took during the fabrication of his enclosure. Mine is constructed more like a bimini...

Hello All, Many thanks to Herman, the owner of "Kiwi", hull #5 of the Seapiper 35 line, for all the info and photos he provided me with to design the enclosure for the center cockpit area. Final install was today, and here are some photos. This was constructed of 1-1/4" stainless tubing in a...

Hello again everyone, I've been quite busy the past several weeks fixing and cleaning Grey Ghost. The list seemed endless, but I've made great progress and am pretty much finishing up a few items and modifications. I've replaced the Vetus hatch over the pilothouse dinette, along with the...

Agree 1000% with DDW. I'm spending days going over every inch and tightening loose screws, etc. Reinstalling the entrance hatches at the aft end of the pilot house and the entrance to the forward cabin. These hatches are very will built and quite heavy and only two hinges holding them. These...

Hello again, This past Sunday, July 23, I moved the boat from Bayshore, on the south shore of Long Island in the Great South Bay, to a temporary slip at my old yacht club in East Rockaway. This is about a 30 mile trip, and one I've done numerous times in the past when going east or to Fire...

Thank you, Much appreciated !!

Welcome aboard. I follow that channel and will add yours to my list as well .

Hello Joe, First let me say thank goodness you were not seriously injured in the explosion. Secondly, my sincerest apologies to you for what appeared to be me insinuating you were involved in any "hanky panky". I was surprised that the boat had been totalled as well. I have seen instances...

Hello everyone, There has been much discussion on this forum regarding these vessels. Lot's of knowledgeable people, lots of misinformation regarding much about these boats. I am the new owner of Grey Ghost, the vessel seen on Yachtworld and other sites. I had the boat surveyed today after...

Looking for recommendations for a quality marine surveyor in the Norfolk, VA area.

What about Gulf Coast Diesel in Punta Gorda?

Check the fuel solenoid as well to make sure it's pulling in completely

Thank you for taking us along on your years with Passi. Magnificent scenery for a magnificent vessel.

Just magnificent!!! Unfortunately can't access video as it says it's private.

If you look at the email address it's related to the US Merchant Marine Academy on the north shore of Long Island. Yet when I went to that site, that vessel was not shown as for sale anywhere. Could have been sold by now

Also, if the bracket holding the solenoid has some play in it, position the solenoid so that the shaft moves in and out without binding anywhere before tightening it down.

There's also Don's marine surplus and salvage in Clearwater, Used them many a time when living in Tampa area. Huge yard with everything you might want.

Correction, that's Peekskill, NY

Check Yachtworld, Boat Trader. Skipper Bob's boat is for sale in Poughkeepsie, NY for 84K. There are others listed as well.

Welcome aboard from Wimauma. This is a wonderful site with loads of information and friendly folks. Currently boatless, but previous boat was at Little Harbor in Ruskin.
