Re: Stus-List inflatable repairs

Re: Stus-List inflatable repairs - Porta-Bote

I have an 8.5 foot Porta-Bote. It planes with a 3.5 hp motor with two adults aboard. It is a dry ride compared to an inflatable. It weighs 60 pounds, and I hand launch and retrieve it over the side. I can unfold it or fold it on my C&C 27 foredeck. When folded, It

Re: Stus-List inflatable repairs

First, never buy an inflatable with glued seams. My glued seam Zodiac joined 3-4 others in falling apart after a few short years. I now have a thermowelded inflatable. I reglued the Zodiac with West Systems G-Flex epoxy. Seemed to work well. Properly cleaning and prepping the surfaces is cruc

Re: Stus-List inflatable repairs - Porta-Bote

I would endorse the Porta-Bote as well. I have two live aboard/ cruising friends who have them and swear by them. One of them has taken his Porta-Bote around the world twice, plus several seasons in the Bahamas and Caribbean. >From experience, it takes about 15 minutes to assemble/ disassemble

Re: Stus-List inflatable repairs - Porta-Bote

I love my Avon RIB, but if I go offshore I'll need to get something like that. I do not want to tow a dinghy in the ocean. It gets scary with any big waves behind you - the dinghy tries to pass you. Joe Della Barba j...@dellabarba.com Coquina C&C 35 MKI From:

Re: Stus-List inflatable repairs - Porta-Bote

So, Bill. Do you like your PoataBote? :) I've got a 10 foot model, purchased because it is the best on deck stowage solution as you described. I hate towing, except in the islands. And it's kinda like when you're driving a tractor, it seems everyone you pass by looks over and smiles.

Re: Stus-List Anybody know these Boats?

Coventina isn't really at McCotters. She is at the Washington Yacht & Country Club where I normally keep my 38. Judging by the portlights she is an early 80s vintage. I went aboard to look at the boat when she first came to the area last year and she appears to be a pretty decent boat. Canvas is gr

Tom, We've chartered several times with the Moorings both at Tortola and Marigot Bay. Although it's been several years since our last charter with the Moorings, our experiences with them were all excellent. The BVI are a great place to sail. It's fairly well protected, distances between anchorage

David, The "Starboard Home" is currently docked in my marina about 10 slips away from me. I've done a brief walk-through and would have to say that she is pretty rough and needs a lot of work. I would definitely not pay any thing close to the asking price even if I was willing to take on that ki

Re: Stus-List Bareboat charter BVI?

Check out Conch Charters. Boats are from Sunsail & Moorings fleets when they are chucked out after 5 years. So boats are a little older and scratched up a bit more, but substantially cheaper. A 43 foot Jenneau will cost you about $2900 for 9 days.

I've sailed right up to the start of the peak season on November 15. Always found a mooring buoy. Also sailed last week of January this year. Plenty of mooring buoys.
