    Good bumpers?

    Buy an inflation needle that is used to fill basketballs, footballs, etc, to re inflate them in the spring for the new season.

    Wireless MOB Kill Switches

    With the new regulation that took effect on 4/1/21 about the mandatory wearing of kill switch lanyards on boats under 26 feet, I was wondering if anyone has installed a wireless kill switch on their boat? I have seen the ones with the wearable bracelets. Are there any other styles? Has anyone...

    Public Service Announcement

    With only a few years boating experience i have a question not just about this incident but about mooring. Because of the lack of a port side stern line, wouldn’t a port side springer line tide to the dock be helpful? I see just a fender tide to the port mid cleat. Wouldn’t this be helpful in...

    EPIRB's

    Finally got mine a few weeks ago. Got the ACR EPIRB with the ditch bag, beacon strobe light, mirror and whistle. Bought a Stanley waterproof rechargeable spotlight and started looking for a handheld waterproof radio. Thanks for all the input.

    Towing

    I'm in Sea Isle City NJ and I have SeaTow. It seems I see more of their tow boats near the Townsends Inlet so that's why I went with them. I think it's about $140 a year.

    My daughter's boyfriend dropped and broke his iPhone over the summer. My daughter found a refurbished iPhone X on Amazon for around $400. I think it came with a 30 day warranty. He has had no problems with it since. Maybe Amazon would be a better place to look than EBay?

    Missing Summer

    New boat question

    What are the rules for the Chesapeake for discharging the head overboard? I am in South Jersey and I must go 5 miles offshore to dump the holding tank. I agree with everyone else, it's up to you, how much do you think the head will be used? I have the head with the macerater and overboard...

    When it comes to cleaning I have found that the combination of Spray Nine and a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser cleans almost everything but rust stains.

    2021 GW Fisherman 236 Windlass Rope/Chain

    From Boat.ed: Determining how long your anchor rode should be is as simple as multiplying the deepest water you expect to anchor in by 8. As for rope size, the rule of thumb is 1/8" of rope diameter for every 9' of boat length. So if you expect to anchor your 26' boat in 30' of water, you need...
