    Windlass anchor rope “rode” tangling/jam fix?

    Try weaving a little piece of ribbon around one strand of your rode, every 25 feet.

    Hi Mustang The install went great, and I couldn’t be happier with the end result. Riggers feel solid in place, and they look great even without riggers! I actually haven’t had a chance to use them yet, even though WDFW has given us a cpl xtra wknds in area 7 to fish. Ferry life is keeping me...

    Looking for GPS/Fishfinder for 208

    T-Man….what product is that on the dash? Also, where did you install the VHF? I just bought a 93 Adventure, and am looking for ideas. I like how you did yours. Thanks.

    Adventurer 20, cuddy floor drain

    I just bought my first GW , and it’s a 93 Adventure. In my explorations of the boat I discovered that the anchor locker basically drains through the fwd storage bin in the cuddy, straight into the bilge. Totally unacceptable to me, so I glassed in a floor in the anchor locker, and drilled a...

    I’m going with the Burnewiin inserts. I bought them from Fishery’s Supply through a boat builder friend of mine and that saved me 30%. The gunnels are just too narrow to accommodate the Scotty base plates for me. And backing plates for the Scotty mounts would have been a pia. The fit and finish...

    Mustang, I’m really leaning towards the Burnewiin‘s, but would really like to see them on a boat, with riggers attached. Just to see how well they work. How solid they feel. I see Fishery’s has all the parts, and really, not bad priced if they work well. I’m WSF deckhand,and I work...

    Hi all. Happy to be here! I just bought my first GW, she’s a 93 2008 Adventure. I’m a sport fisherman, mainly around the San Juans, and Vancouver Island, and have owned many boats before this one. The boat I just bought is pretty bare bones as far as being rigged for any type of fishing, so he...
