Mr. Clean Magic Erasers....they work great on bolsters, cushions, etc.

Great looking ride! Best of luck with her. Fast question. In the 2nd pic it looks like you have a rocket launcher set up in the stern that must be removable since its not in the other cockpit shots. What/how do you have that set up?

I had used Sikkens for years on the teak deck of my Pacemaker. The good: Fast and easy to put on Completely sealed and waterproofed the teak (deck hatches stopped swelling and sticking) Long lasting The bad: the color (even the "light" has an orange tint) each coat made the color more...

My '89 Marlin has them in the aft corners, tucked up under the gunnels pointing down and forward. Out of the way and no cutting involved

I had the same issue last year with my Grady and followed everyones advice regarding Woody Wax. Great stuff and great results. I spoke with the company back then as well and they gave me a tip that I hadn't seen on their website or bottle, etc. They said to coat the tower legs with woody...

I hate to say it due to the expense and hassle involved, but it sounds like you'd be better off adding a genny. I have an 1990 Marlin without one and it is on the "wish" list.

I've been to a seminar by Ruguso in the past. If you ever get the chance I strongly recommend it! Very good speaker and the amount of knowledge and experiance he brings to the table is substantial to say the least. One of the first things I did when I got into offshore fishing is to buy his...

Go with the normally aspirated motor and plumb it with a nice nitrous set up for when you need the extra speed to make weigh in :lol: Yes I'm being a wise ass, sorry

Try a product called "7-11". Not sure who makes it but one of my crew is a machinest and he turned me on to it years ago. It amazing the stuff it has worked on. Light years ahead of Liquid Wrench or WD40

You know...it's getting to the point that we have enough GW owners on the South Shore of LI on here that we should consider starting an owners group/club

Pete Who's doing your welding? I have a crack in one of my hardtop supports as well. I did my last fishing trip yesterday as well. Nothing happening but its always better to empty the bait freezer over the side then the garbage pail. :) Joe

I hate reading stories like this as we all do I'm sure. We just lost another fisherman here on Long Island out at Montauk this week . It only takes a second. My sympathies to the families and friends of these men. I'm guessing of course, but I wonder if the rear curtain was zipped for...

Thanks guys for the great info and feedback I took off last week so I didn't get to read/respond so I apologize for starting a thread and then disappearring. I do use an electric heater at the dock and will probably go with a propane heater designed for camping with a low oxygen cut off...

:lol: You know Bob I'm fast approaching that point as well lol Then again there is nothing like being the only boat on the bay, with the sun coming up and putting a glow on the sky, crisp clear air, a hot cup of coffee in your hand and the optimisim that there is still one big bass out there...

Thanks for the input. It looks like the stove and the heat pail use the same fuel which I'd pick up at West. Fumes/CO issues have me a bit concered but then again I don't plan on being down in the cabin much.

I've never thought about this before since my other boats all had gennys and heat (reverse cycle and electric), but is it safe to use the alcohol stove to heat up the cabin? I know Origo who makes the stove also makes a heat pail so on one hand I wonder how differant they can be in concept...

In defense of Blue Sharks I know I'm the minority but I'm not an idiot. Like everyone I live for that high flying mako and freight car of a Thresher....but if the Blue dogs show up I still smile. I just break out the light tackle (20lbs stand ups are perfect) and you'd be surprised the fun...

I have 3 of the units on my Pacemaker. All three control heads are set so that the fans only run until the temp is reached. The manual that came with mine was pretty easy to follow and I think it covers setting the fans

Thanks. I got so annoyed the other week I posted the boat for sale. I can't take credit for finding him either. My wife and fishing crew all went crazy trying to find someone good for me before I did something stupid like sell the boat. And thanks again for all of your help and advice on...

Idiot Mechanic I probably should start a new thread on the subject...but I lost patience with the original mechanic I was using and who diagnosied my problem/inability to shift into reverese. Finally (after having 3 seperate mechanics pull "no-shows" on me) a new guy came down. Besides...
