my bad 5x only on reels, still agood price

West Marine has a 5x points special going. They also have a Raymarine axiom+ 9rv on sale for 799, they also have a axiom+ 9rv for sale for 1539.99. I cannot find a difference. Can someone see the reason for price difference. With points the cheaper one is essentially 640 thanks

hope your flying!

never use salt water to flush, we use the fresh water sink sprayer in the head. I do believe it is lack of volume for flushing and waste sitting in the hose. I will be more diligent in flushing with large volume when we get back to dock. I have flushed copiously at the dock recently and added...

When I bought the boat the head (with the exception of the manual pump on toilet) was not functioning. Macerator and indicators did not work. My fix was to convert to a number one only head, we call it the ladies room. To empty the tank I installed a small bilge pump in the tank connected to...

Probably all of the above. Have spare fuel filters but just realized no wrench to remove. Will get one.

i set up my batteries with the house bank and starting isolated from each other. house has simple on/off. starting have 1-2-both. the cables are to feed the house if needed. which i actually did once when my old ox66 engines aux cables did not function and were not charging the house bank...

better yet jumper cables for the truly paranoid. when we reduced the auto fleet upon retiring i had a spare set. on the boat they went.

You should easily be able to construct a solar battery maintainer. A charging system is a horse of another color and requires considerable amount of panels. The main problem with maintaining boat batteries is that we have multiple banks of batteries. You can get solar charge controllers that...

looking for mounting recs for my new I pad at the helm. it is an a16 model/size thanks

not sure about your engines but my old ox66 was a nightmare. unit was bolted to the block and cooled by salt water flow. needless to say bolts were hard to get out and one sheared. had to drill it out and tap hole which miraculously worked. good luck. ps symptoms were similar to yours which...

Scrubbing with brush on right angle drill and acetone wash seems to have worked so far. Now thinking of restoring the helm chairs. I have new cushions but want to paint or gelcoat the arms and base. Looking for advice.

this is not a pie hole but a 2x4 foot deck plate

Got my hatch for the rear deck plate and installed it. Prior to install sprayed the plate with gelcoat. My color match is horrible, added way to much beige to try to achieve off white. Would have been better off with no added color. I would like to recoat but on the last spray coat I added...

One of the first things I did on my boat was to pull all the non functional ac stuff. Cook top, microwave, fridge and the entire ac panel in the cabin. Made a dc panel to replace old ac/dc panel. I did leave the wire from the original 30 amp plug to the cabin bulkhead as a just in case. Have...

bought a 13x30 hatch

Pulling up my deck plates to reseal and inspect. The rear plate in this picture is over the bilge. Since I have owned the boat it has never been screwed down. Reason being it is the only way to access the bait tank and washdown sea cocks and float switch. This could not possibly be done...

These ACRs are voltage sensing relays and I would imagine have diodes? which prevent current from passing from the house bank. To me that would mean a voltage spike causing the problem not voltage drop. I did wire a switch to the negative of the ACRs so they are disabled during charging when...

i did and all but one wiring diagram shows si wire going to start lug on key switch. mine are sealed units and as i said cutting harness may void warranty. one diagram did show the si wire going to the starting wire connection on the starter solenoid. seems that would suffice and a wire could...
