    Help selecting radar/ gps

    Go with Garmin. I have used Raytheon, Furuno NavNetv2, Raymarine E-120, Nobeltec and Garmin is my approved solution. Can go into details if interested, but those touchscreen Garmins in my mind are unbeatable. Boated with all those combos for 6 years. Get GARMIN

    How far do you have to drive to your boat?

    My commute usually takes 2 games of cribbage........depends on the winds........if the winds aloft at FL 410 are good, then it's 1:15. If the winds are lousy, it takes +15min max. jet is 3 min from my PA house and boat is 15 min from airport on Johns Island in SC.

    The death of my 340DA - Roof collapse at SMYC

    Death of my boat? YOU got to be kidding me. INsurance will cover this, you'll end up with something guaranteed to better than what you had and you act like you just lost your precious pet. I'd be rejoicing and trying to figure out how i could claim the whole enchilada.
