Had a brainwave today and picked up a large exhaust pipe expander from princess auto today (a Canadian version of Harbour Freight) Worked very well indeed to press the dent out from the inside, and coincidentally straighten the bend - no doubt it is not at its original strength, but overall not

That’s true, but the flip side of it is that the GPS signal is pretty weak by itself. You don’t want to attenuate it more than you need to. Just to argue with myself, most of the time the external antenna is not required - the GPS would receive the signal without it, even in the cabin. Marek F

The "right" way to splice it is with 2 male PL259 connections on both cut ends and then a double female to connect them together. In reality the center conductor carries the signal and the outer is the shield. The signal from the antenna really isn't a high frequency signal requiring a shielded c

My old Garmin text only GPS quit acquiring satellites. I tried a spare 128 with the same result. Aha, bad antenna. I bought a cheap Chinese knock off replacement. When I went to pull the old antenna out, I discovered the cable somehow got cut by the steering system. (I think it was a leprechau

Its definitely not the case of “don’t worry about it”. Do you know if you have balsa? On my 38mk2 from 1977 balsa goes all the way down to the keelbolts tabbing. You need to find that out. Few ways you can do that. Tapping with a mallet on the outside of the hull around the questionable are

In my '78 C&C 36 I am seeing a couple spots where salt water is weeping in through the hull near the bilge area, appearing from seemingly nowhere as if from a spring. One point is about 3' back from the mast and 18" to the side. The other is closer to the keel but they both are on the edges of hull
