Good morning, I recently purchased a Simrad halo plus and own two Simrad NSX MFDs. Is my only option for networking the Simrad Ethernet hub? I see a Simrad 7 pin joiner hub for significantly less. Appreciate if anyone has any experience with this.

Question for the group, I've been having an issue on our boat with our carbon monoxide alarms going off. It's when we aren't running and haven't been for some time. What possibly could be generating CO? I open the windows, vent the boat when this happens but I need to figure out a root cause...

Hey all, having problems with what I assume is a relatively new Raritan 1700 water heater. I apparently have a short, the 110 breaker pops the minute I turn it on. My assumption is that the most likely failure point is the coil and I was going to order a replacement coil. Is there anything else...

I am adding a wifi booster to my mast on a Grand Banks 46, I am wondering how to access the cord bundle once it passes from the mast to the cabin roof. I have investigated our master closet looking for an access panel and haven't found anything. I assume this is a fairly easy thing once you know...

I will freely admit that I am caught up in new boat exuberance and I want to order some glassware with our boat name and the outline of the boat.

Good morning! I am considering purchasing a 46 Grand Banks, I currently own a smaller, (not a banks) trawler. The boat has the 375 Cats, hours in the high 3k. Any advice anyone can offer both in attempting to establish value, and specific things I should be on the lookout for in evaluating the...

Hey all, I have an '81 Present and I am trying to locate a surface mount light. All exterior lights on my boat are currently a 2.5" diameter circular light base. they are mounted on a wood mount on top of the glass of the same dimension. I have to replace several and have been trying to find a...

I wanted to take everyone's temp on what marine insurance provider they like. I have an '81 Present trawler. I have always been with BoatUS, in the last several years they have partnered with Geico and the policy has changed to depreciate parts to 20 percent of replacement cost. I had to file my...

Hello, I need advice on sealing the forward hatch on my boat. I have stripped the varnish and removed the glass and am now attempting to plan on how to seal the glass. It has always had a terrible seal around the glass, leaking during rain or big seas and has therefore always been covered by...
