Hi, Matthew — welcome back! How long a piece of molding do you need? And is
it straight, or on an inside or outside curve? This past summer I salvaged
some straight molding (not a lot, but some) from a 38 that suffered hull core
damage, and was being stripped and landfilled. This would be th

For ages I have had a Standard-Horizon SL1 speed log. The instrument eventually
died and was replaced. The impellor was always getting gunked up and then died
for good. The instrument died again. I got one instrument and two impellors

Mine is from Raymarine and it is removable for cleaning while the boat
is in the water. I keep the dummy plug in the thruhull except when I

There are ultrasonic speed transducers (no moving parts), but they aren’t cheap
(around $650?). Arimar makes them, as well.

I have Nexus NX2 instruments (now owned by Garmin), and they are very reliable.
No problem with five year old speed transducer.

My Hurth transmission has a drain, as well. Totally useless. In my stupidity,
after having problems to suck out all of the old oil, I decided to use the
drain. Opening it is not a big deal (an extra joint in the arm would certainly
help). But putting that plug back in requires at least two extra

How often is your boat hauled? Is it like our Northern boats where it is only
in the water for 5-6 months a year or year round like our Southern friends?
That would have a huge impact on fouling of all impellors IMO

I come out every third year. The impellor itself can come out and be cleaned,
but if it is just dead cleaning won’t help it. I usually have it out when not
using the boat frequently.

My 30 year old Signet Marine depth and speed instruments have never failed.
They still sell them and they're rock solid. www.signetmarine.com/. I suspect
you may have water in your cables that is eventually penetrating the impeller.
As to modern the Airmar looks good and is nmea 2000. Jerr

My Nexus Classic knotlog is pushing 15 years. I don't leave it in the
boat. Remove it and replace it with the plug if boat is going to sit for
more than a few days.
I did, however, add stress relief to the cable entering the transducer
after the original transducer died after 2-3 years. Nexus t
I'm about to deliver a boat that had a max prop installed with the wrong key on

Hey all,
I'm trying to price out a large solar system and new house battery bank for a
42' cruiser and I'm curious where fellow sailors are buying solar panels,
regulators, and batteries these days. Amazon has tons of panels, but in most
cases it seems the quality is questionable for marine us
I got a quote from Ferris Hamilton for a 200w system for a soft Bimini mount
for about $1500 USD. It included 2 flexible panels, controller, wiring,
special pop on attachment buttons, and wiring instructions. This was their
"boat show deal". I too have seen these things far less expensive on
Grape solar panels appear to have a good rep with the RV and sailing
communities. I just bought a 100 amp panel with solar regulator from Home Depot
at a decent price (300 total). So far, it works well and is put together well.

I have not been disappointed with my flexible panels that I got off of
eBay. I paid ~$150 each for two 100w panels. I cheaped out on the panels
but made sure to get quality charge controllers from Genasun. MPPT, 8amp
with boost. I got cheap volt/amp/power meters with digital displays for
