Ok, so I'm assuming I'm good to 185-190....not passed that.

Hey Guys, I've had the XM "Fisherman" package for two years now, and wouldn't go out with out either XM or Sirius weather. I can't speak for Sirius, but now that they are a merged company, I'd assume they would be similar. The radar and Nexrad is spot on for Fronts, T-Storms and Lighting S...

Thanks Al, Will do.

Thanks Rick, Yeah, the end that plugs into the Furuno display unit must now plug into the Garmin expander, thus allowing it to display on the chart plotter split screen. I'll take a stroll over to the marine electronics store and see what they offer.

Hi All, When I purchased all the Garmin eqiupment last year, I got the expander for when I would need to change over radar, sonar, etc. I tried to use the cable in the electronics box that was there for the Furuno fish finder, but it is not compatable with the Garmin expander unit. Is there a conver...

I will. Thanks for the heads-up. Any recomendations?

Thanks Mike, Do you think your guy would come to Cape May? And if so, can you get me his info? Thanks!

I wasn't sure if this thread was for canvas (winter covering) or actual eienglass. Thanks!

Hi All, Hope the winter months have not been all that bad for you, and a reminder that Spring is, kinda, alomst here! Was curious if anyone has recently had their eisenglass redone. I'm looking to have the front and side panels replaced on my 33' Sportfisher in the Cape May, NJ area. Any Ideas? Thanks

Hey Gerard, I got some pretty fine stainless mesh. About same size holes as the main intake strainers and just wraped the end of the new hoses and then hose clamped. Should work fine. Let's hope there's no need to use them other than the annual winterizing.

Hey all, Thanks for the responses. This is the first year I have the boat in year round. It's in a new, private slip, and the current runs pretty strong, so no concern for water freezing. (hasn't on record yet). What I ended up doing was installing "crash valves" in line. Closed sea-cocks ...

Thanks Charlie! I think once the wet weather stops, I'll be doing the hose removal. Will take your suggestions and heat the hoses and twist and pry away. While I have them off, I think I will also install a crash valve, as a charter boat here in Cape May had an incident today and took on a bunch of ...

Hi All, Been a while since I've been to the site. Many crazy things the past year, but all is well now. I've missd the conversations and great information. I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving and a great start of the Holiday Season. I've begun winterizing my 33 and have gotten all the fresh wate...

As a Cape May summer resident, and a 33' Bertram owner, I can attest to the great destination point Cape May makes. It is very nice in itself as a small town, with great restaurants, mueseums, etc. Also, if there are kids, Wildwood's boardwalk is only a short 10 minute drive. There are plenty of doc...

I used to date a girl from Wilminton, MA. Spent many a nights on RT. 1 in Danvers with her brother. I think there was one called the golden bannana? and another called the Caberet? Such fond memories.
