From what Mike(keeper of the cup that day) said it would actually float for about a minute or two before it went under. I guess they "press to test" a couple times over history.
we had it on the Gasparilla pirate ship a couple years ago, and we put the life jacket on it, the only limitation...
I had a stressful couple months, but good friends sure know how to pick up a guy's spirits! Had this special guest on board all day for a great day of friendship and celebration. I am very blessed to have such great friends.
Group of friends and I ate at Theo's a few years back, I still remember it as one of the best steaks I have eaten. Maybe it was the company I was with or drinking all day, but we all still talk about that place.
Did someone on this thread swap out an interior electric outlet for a usb outlet that matched perfectly?
I think it was this thread, and I tried the search but no luck.
Thanks,

Paul,
I am looking for a trim piece for a 2005 420 sundancer It is for the skylight in the main salon. Not the retractable one, but it covers the inside. here are a couple pics of the damage.
thanks,
Matt
not to scare you but here is a link to an article on Tony's site about the beloved 480 C-E. You may have seen this:

I am out of Tampa, and I had Southeastern Marine Power do the work. I have another great mechanic who is actually friends with Tony that does most of my work, but this was a big project and he didn't want to tackle it. Down here the Cummins guys will not work on a boat and send you to...
uggh, I have been following you story on sbmar. I proactively replaced both heads on mine last year and it cost me around 15k. My theory was replacing both prior to the valve seat failing would probably be cheaper than rebuilding one engine. Of course there was no damage done to mine when I...
Cold beer is served once again..
The original inside fridge was not cooling so I had my guy come out and take a look. The fan and AC converter on the fridge were not working properly. We replaced both. He had an upgraded module that was the controller and AC converter combined for just...
Sweet thanks guys, glad its an easy fix. Figured probably a six pack? One to get tools ready, one during process and four to admire how great it looks.
Thanks again!
Matt
Mine arrive today! Before I get too deep in to the project, some advice please. I ordered the whole switch and cover. To install just the cover, is it as simple as removing the six screws and replacing the cover? Seems way to easy.....
I knew ours was overloaded. Since we were the second owners, we didn't know how hard it was run during it's first 85ish hours. I have taken about 2 1/2 or 3 inches out of the props(down to 25"). To start with a new baseline, I replaced both cylinder heads to make sure I eliminated any...
480 CE's and the port check engine light came on today after running a bit and then just idling around the island. Any clues what reasons the light comes on for? I tried to search and cannot find anything.
Thanks!
edit: sounds like operator error, once docked I left the engine sync on and...
Thanks Todd. I have been in touch with Mike, however in the meantime I stumbled upon a new sc5800 that I am going to try. I may still send the old one to Mike.
Thanks,
Matt
