    For Sale: Two Hobie Mirage Revolution 11 Kayaks For Sale

    We are selling a pair of Hobie Mirage Revolution 11 kayaks. Oddly, we managed to acquire two more than we need. It's handy when friends come to visit, but that doesn't justify keeping four kayaks around. It is time for two to find a new home. Hobie Mirage kayaks use Hobie's proprietary Mirage...

    I have a West Marine (Zodiac) 310 RIB and Mercury 9.9 2-stroke outboard for sale. It belongs to my father-in-law who no longer goes boating. Both were new in 2002 and have been in storage since 2009. He sold his boat but hung on to the dinghy in the hope that he would use it, but never has...

    How hard is it to change engine mounts?

    It's time to change the engine mounts in our old Grand Banks. The engines are Lehman 120's. How hard is that to do? I understand that we will need to align the engines and the shafts when done. I am just trying to figure out whether I want to change them myself or have it done. I can get...

    We need a generator

    Our boat does not have a generator. I am told the boat had one in the past, but I can find no evidence of that. We are not looking for the best generator in the world. We don't need one that is going to run for twenty years straight. We just need a reliable, reasonably priced, easy to maintain...

The desire of the association is that site be the internet home of the PSGBOA and allow all members to participate and share information and experiences. With about 500 members from several countries and many states...

    Pacific Northwest Grand Banks Rendezvous recap

    We just got home from the Pacific Northwest Grand Banks rendezvous in Roche Harbor. Our first rendezvous. We are not social boaters. The preferred limits of our social interaction is waving at other boaters as we pass by. So going to the rendezvous was a different experience for us. We had a...

    New LED Lighting

    I thought of this as I was posting in another thread. Rather than hijack that thread, I though I would go ahead and create a separate post. We recently replaced all our inside lighting with new LED light strips. In our case, the lighting inside was 12 inch long fluorescent tubes inside recessed...

    Our Boat from Space

    I was playing around on Google Maps today and sure enough, I found our boat. Headed out from our slip on Lake Union for an afternoon on Lake Washington. I know exactly the date and time of this satellite image. We only went that way once last summer. Isn't the internet great? -- Edited by...
