I don’t have a lot of knowledge about it, but what I’m thinking is if I put the GPS cords in, it would adjust the rudder using the GPS location of the boat. Meaning if the boat was pushed by the tides or the wind, it would auto correct itself based mainly off the GPS coordinates of the boat...

Thank you all for your input. Portage_Bay, that gives me some great info to research and a good starting point for diagnostics. If you give me a hammer and nails, I’m at home. When we start talking data ports and signals, my brain isn’t wired so well. I greatly appreciate your time in giving...

Thank you for the recommendation. I’ll give that some research.

Hello everyone, I’m in need of advice and opinions. I’m currently looking to upgrade the electronics on my boat (1986 - 41’ motorboat). I’m normally able to research things and understand the basics, but all the options and brands of electronic equipment has me perplexed and nervous of buying...

Thanks again for everyone’s input. I’ll research the three before making a decision. The newer A/C units have start up and running amperage ratings lower than my current units. Any of the three will be an improvement, I’ll just have to see what’s worth spending the extra money for. My boat has...

Thank you for sharing your experiences. That definitely helps ease my mind on ordering from them.

Hello all, I’m currently looking to replace my old non-functioning A/C units. I wanted to ask if anyone here had any thoughts on or have used the Webasco units? I have found the best price at Citimarine, but have no experience ordering from them. I would appreciate any input or suggestions...

Can you PM me a phone number so I can call you to work out the details? Thanks, Sam

I am also interested if still available.

Thanks again for al the reply’s. I appreciate the advice and will be using that looking at boats as I move forward. I have been on the hunt for about a year now. Hopefully the right one will show up soon. Thanks, Sam

Thanks again for everyone’s insight. I have found it hard to find a boat in my budget that has the right “look” and sea worthiness for me and layout for my wife's comfort. Leaning towards the more inexpensive boats I know I will have issues to deal with. This one just may need to much. This...

Thank you for all the replies. This boat is one I was looking at purchasing and while the boat looks good from 10’ away, it’s the issues up close that start to turn me away. The boat puts a smile on my face as I peer through my rose colored glasses. The reality is, the sitting water in the front...

The water comes in from the chain locker area. It also looks like the stanchions need to be removed and reset as there is water coming in at those locations also. It maybe possible to add a pump , but the area is not very deep. It would still leave some amount of water in the forward bilge. At...

Hello all, I’m looking at a boat and have a question about water in the bilge. The chain locker and V-birth drain to the center of the bow with no opening to continue draining to the bilge pump located mid ship in the engine compartment. There is only one bilge pump on this boat and appears to...

Does anyone have any information on Legacy tugs built in Florida. I have found limited info on a blog that was last posted on in 2010. I have seen a few Legacy Mk II and Mk III’s. Does any one have any pictures or info they can post? Any stats on how many were built, quality, and layouts...

Hello everyone, I joined the forum several months ago and never posted here in the welcome mat. I found this forum in my search for a Prairie trawler. I found Miss Dot Dee during an internet search and joined to contact sailermike and asked him about it. It has since been my go-to for endless...

Atlantic 30 Hello, I hope this message finds you well. I sent a PM and emailed my contact info. I’m currently looking for an Atlantic or Prairie. I would like to talk to you about yours if it is still available. All the best, Sam
