Remember to calculate in the rated gain on the antenna. A simple 3dB gain gives an effective doubling of radiated energy. With sufficient gain, you can overcome much of the feedline loss. On 4/26/2022 11:04 AM, Joe Della Barba via CnC-List wrote: > FYI: > > Loss per 100 feet at 150 MHz and

I obtained an old two-stroke Suzuki Sail-8 for my first outboard for my 24. It has a few issues, one being is flings small amounts of oil at the transom, so now I have some minor staining. It's less of a spot, and more of a discolored patch where the oil has absorbed. I am looking for any kind

Was this thread about a gasket to re-bed the hatch to the deck, or the seal integrated to the hatch frame that the lens makes contact with? I must have lost track of it along the conversation, sorry. I am in need of the gasket that the lens contacts to prevent water entry. The frame is

Stus-List First Aid Kit (inland & coastal)

An ad popped up on FB for a "boaters" first aid kit for a ridiculous price of $200+. The wee orange Pelican box was probably half the cost, but I digress. Concerning inland and coastal sailing, it made me wonder what should be in a marine FAK? From my limited experience, I'd say the items that

My daughter asked me last weekend if I ever thought of getting a bigger boat, and after a moment I said no. Open water is fifty miles from me, so I'm a river sailor. My 24 is perfect for that. There's no engine issues to deal with. There's very little wood to maintain. Everything about the boat
