Re: Cleaning Boat Hull

I put my boat in the salt water every summer for the past four years. I do not have bottom paint. I use three coats of marine paste wax at the start of the season, when it is out of the water. I scrub it with a stiff brush about every 5 weeks when it stays in the water. The big difference is the cov...

Neck Seal Replacement

Looking for a quick replacement for a neck seal on a Bare shell suit. Any recommendations for a shop with quick turnaround or a shop with seals for a DIY project?

Re: Cove 2 Shower?

Just don't mention any marina and water use by boat owners. I would hate not being able to hose down my boat after a day on the water. I also wonder how the park services or a marina will wash bird crap off the docks?

Re: New to the Board and Seattle- WTB- Drysuit

If you are still looking, I have a brand new Fusion the has never seen the water. I purchased it for my daughter and she never used it. The seals might be dry or need to be replaced, but I will lower my price to adjust for this if needed. I will have to go find it and tell you the size.

It looks like you fixed the leaks in your lift bags. Wouldn't they work more efficiently below the waterline?

Re: Missile Silo Dive

I did this dive years ago. Interesting to experience, but a little pricy to recommend it or ever do it a second time. I would save my money a do something like God's pocket or go dive a nice charter in the PNW.

Waterproof Phone Case

I just purchased several phone cases to protect my phone around the water. I thought this would be a good thing to have. I do not think I would tether this to my BC, but would possibly have an old phone in my pouch for 911 emergency calls. I hope this link works. https://www.livingsocial.com/deals/6...

Re: Truck advice

Very valid points and the ones I am pondering also. The truck is in good condition and is a good truck. The down side is it is a fuel guzzling beast. I have an older Ford Ranger I drive now while the big boy sits in a shop. It is nice to get 20 mpg in my ranger than the 8 - 10 in the big boy. A new ...

Re: Truck advice

Thanks for the advice.

Brian,
The spark plug was fixed last season with the special insert and that blew out again pulling the new threads with it. Not sure if a new insert would work again. Open to all suggestions.

Truck advice

Looking for advice on a truck. I'm in need of repairing my existing F-250 that needs a new head due to spark plug blowout or trade / sell as is and upgrade. Not sure if I lease a truck or buy one. Need full size bed and tow 8000 minimum.
