    The tablet has a GPS built in, and that's all Navionics needs. The maps are downloaded through them. If you need internet, you use your cell phone as a hot spot. Most of the boating we do, there is data service available on our phones.

    Desolation Sound - Generator Needed?

    Northern is right. We have done desolation when we had a 28-foot boat many times with no generator. You're limiting factor is really your water, unless you haven't installed extra group 27 batteries. There's plenty marinas up there to moore and charge batteries. We did put an extra soft water...

    Remove Westerbeke Genset from a 330DA- sterndrives

    A few weeks back my Westerbeke 4.5kw generator started smoking like there was a fire. After the smoke cleared, I opened the access panel to the generator and could see that some wires and windings melted. The motor still runs fine, but the generator is no producing electricity obviously. I've...

    Trailering oversize in PA (or other states)

    I trailer my 33 a few times a year. In WA state, you can be up to 12ft wide and 14ft high with without a pilot. My boat is 13.6ft high and usually goes under all bridges. Permits are easy to obtain. I print them online.
