Powercats Get a bit of weather behind them and they surf very well on low hp

Rubbish Star trek had them way before apple thought of them

Obviously did not have spell check?

Same same but 6 X the cost

I use a Pantech Element when on the water and most of the time at home and on the road. They are a pretty good tablet, not as fast as some but certainly faster and with a hell of a lot more feastures than a mates ipad mini and screen res is the same. GPS is great (works on planes) and when...

The need was based on the $1500 purchase price. I was keen when listed at $2500, keener again when the price dropped to $2000 and this morning was going to pull the trigger when it dropped to $1500 Doesn't matter now, it was sold almost instantly. SK Watermakers SC 1500 Marine Desalinator | eBay

and you run it how? The one I am looking at is 65 GPH

Just wondering how I would power a watermaker? The one I am thinking of says 230v @ 14-16amps Initially I thought I could run it when the engines are running but then I thought I would be better off with a Honda Genny, but I have my doubts about that even though they supposedly have 15 amp...

I'm planning on installing one of these cheapies. I have had one for several years in my house as a test to see if they are any good and it seems to work just fine I did it as an under the bench install - cheaper than a F&P dishdraw but does the same thing. Omega Benchtop Dishwasher DW101WA |...

So on my 49ft cat weighing in around 10 ton fully loaded I should have a 10 to 15lb anchor? :ermm: Instead I have a 100lb manson supreme

I rode down to OM a few months back for a look see and got to the car park and tried to ride down to the water for a look but the parking Nazi insisted I would have to park the bike several hundred meters away and then walk several hundred meters again down the marina. Felt about 40 degrees in...

I thought it was a steaming pile of crap and so did my wife. There's a few hours neither of us will get back and glad we didn't pay money to see it

Just a bit more on this, but from the flood perspective have a glance at these two stories. We get fairly major floods up in the north on average probably every 5 to ten years...

Easy then and I would think the window manufacturer will have an idea as well. Go bigger if you feel the need depending on cruising grounds. Pointless making it icebreaker tough if in its intended cruising area it'll never see more than 20 knots of breeze.

But its not a new build is it? Looks to be a refit/modification. From this to this

Its a bit of a beat up IMHO For starters look how far Abbot pt is from the actual GBR http://goo.gl/maps/P41aE I would have been more concerned about the dredging they did in Gladstone Harbour for the LNG plant and I would have more concerns over flood waters and the toxins they contain from...

see what others have done DOMINO 20

Multhullers would generally use 3/8th ply and a single layer of 8oz. I have even been on 30 ft cruiser/racers that have only used 1/4 ply on decks and hulls, but I felt the need to walk dainty on these ones. You can build amazingly light and stiff structures if you get your framing right

Exactly

I would do it because A) epoxy is a far superior product B) I have no poly but plenty of epoxy Only if you have poor prep Never seen a problem with epoxy/poly/fairing. If its such a problem as you claim I wonder why the experts, when doing blister repairs on failed poly, use epoxy ?

Save weight , save labour, save excessive sandpaper usage, save $$ Have you ever tried to epoxy resin and microfibre (glue powder) Try longboarding concrete to find out

All sorts of views and opinion on the internet, rarely does any of it agree with others.

Well, all I can say is 20 plus years in the game and have worked on dozens of composite builds using that method under the waterline and I havent had a problem or heard of one yet.

No because that obviously would not work But epoxy is a far superior product to poly and if you are cutting out blisters from polyester failure, why would you want to put the same crap back in?

I wouldn't use it to fill blisters either. But carving out gaping wounds in the hull structure and filling with low density filler is very different to a wafer thin screed of cosmetic filler on the outside of the structure.
