Thanks guys, I heard from some other boaters that use Pettit, they had similar good results. Saving $100 on a gallon of paint may not seem much for some but I just don't feel like I'm getting my monies worth with the Interlux. If I were to switch, would there be a problem using Pettit's Ablative...

Same here, they work fine.

Mine are festoon bulbs, after having them burn out every year or so I decided to replace mine with LEDs. I haven't had to replace them for two years now and they draw less power too. Actually I replace every light on my boat with LEDs, check out www.SuperBriteLeds.com

Choosing a prop for your boat is always challenging. The best think to do is get in contact with your engines manufacture and discuss this with them. Your WOT RPMs will determine the size and pitch of a prop that will be the most efficient for your boat and engine. Prop manufactures might be...

There are a lot of bottom paints out there. I've been using almost a gallon of Interlux's Micron Extra which is a little more than one coat every year. My boat is in salt water for more than 6 months and for the most part I run it on an average of once a week. Every year I have some barnacles on...

Thanks Workdog, that's just the info I was hoping to get. I'm glad to know that there is a way to re-fill this compass. It would be a shame and a waste to trash it and spend more money than necessary to replace it. Actually I was thinking, if there isn't a screw in the bottom of the compass I...

You may be right but considering the compass is almost 23 years old it's probably a very, very small leak.

If I could refill it, what fluid would I fill it with?

Is there a way I can replenish the fluid inside my compass?

Here is a link for the Lewmar Bow Roller I used. Keep in mind that this bow roller was a good replacement for my Seafarer. I don't know if it will be the same bow roller for your Sailfish. Make sure you take measurements of your bow roller. GW has their bow rollers custom made. There were no...

I had the same problem. My bow pulpit made by GW was made for a fluke anchor not a plow. I changed the bow roller to a lewmar bow roller with some mods which is made for a plow anchor. I do not have anymore problems deploying my anchor.

I'm not a Sailfish owner but I am a very happy Seafarer owner. Best of luck with your new purchase, take care of her and she will take care of you for many years to come.

I can measure the size from the Adobe Illustrator file I have if that would help. Depending on what name you put on your boat would determine what size you want. I took a picture of my boat and placed the name on it with my computer to see what I thought would look good. I have redone the name...

Sorry Charles, I sold them.

2Xs on the Toyota Land Cruiser. I tow my boat which is fully loaded and have no problem. I also have 232,000 miles on it and still have the original engine and transmission without either have any major work done to them. I was told that the engine is good for 500,000 miles and that's probably...

What kind of anchor are you using and is the bow roller stock from GW?

No, the window does not open. i am afraid to remove the glass beings it is 21 years old. My worry would be that I will break it. At this point I am not sure how the molding or gasket works. Can I use the automotive silicone to just fill in the hole and next year with more time I can repair the...

Obviously I need to fill in the void that the window gasket has left when it shrunk. I really don't want to use silicone. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks, I just had a flash back of the Three Stooges.

I just uncovered my boat today and thought I would ask and see if anyone has ever solved this problem. Every year while my boat is in my back yard uncovered I always have wasp or yellow jackets make their home inside my gunwales. It's usually right behind the outrigger holder. Does anyone know...
