Internal debate… need new Tender Cover
We have had several types, colors and materials. Still debating, Lol
See pictures below for our recent styles. Pluses and minuses with all I think.
Main questions.?.
1) Gray, White or Color of Canvas/Trim on the big boat?
2) Draw string or clips?

Anyone have experience replacing a failed key (#13) for the shaft on your water pump impellor shaft?
Looks easy enough if the slot is clean, still need to check that.
Maybe easier to just replace the body (#3).
Any help appreciated...
The old Aqua Signal lenses and fixtures were getting pretty long in the tooth.
Weems and Plath turned out to be a good all in one option even though there are less expensive options.
You can order through West Marine or several others...
Have any of you ever replaced the lift fluid for preventative maintenance purposes or had to add fluid or replaced the filter that is part of the pump?
I asked because I believe the instructions do suggest to add fluid as necessary and replace the filter yearly.
Thanks

How often do you’ll do a full bottom sand and paint? I haven’t since July of 2019 just before I got the boat.
Every year since we have pulled the boat, power washed and just touched up the bottom paint. The running and swim platform gear requires a full sand and paint each year though...
Has anyone pulled their box apart and tried to replace the Sound Deadening Materials?
If so what materials did you replace it with? I am planning this soon as it is leaving the old sound materials all over inside the generator box and motor.
I am sure many of you know but see below link for replacement fire extinguisher Kidde is doing for certain recalled units… Have three new replacements on the way.

Heard a couple of reports of some debris littering the bay…
Anyone been out on the Mid/Upper Bay since Friday that can report back?
We planned a Still Pond weekend from Annapolis but with the dam opening we have just laid back.
thanks

At what point is your prop shaft to stiff? My starboard side is so tight I can barely turn the prop (while on the hard) by hand. The port side prop shaft is pretty easy to turn but nothing like an outboard for example.
I have a mechanic coming to look this week but wanted some of your input...
Have you replaced your VHF antenna? Mine is looking a bit rough and the exposed wire insulation is falling off.
I noticed West Marine has a standard 8’ antenna for about $80 and an “extra heavy duty” antenna for $125.
Any need for the extra heavy duty?
Appreciate any thoughts
