Re: 1988 Marinette 32 Sedan For Sale

Quite a boat!! Hope you're able to sell for at/close to asking price. It's worth it!

Question (as I already have a 32' and next (dreamer) purchase would be a 41' Marquis)... where did you find/buy the end table/drawer(s) unit in the salon between the white/aluminum deck chairs?

Thx,
Bill

Re: Refrigerator Replacement

We used a Xantrex 1000W inverter. http://www.ase-supply.com/Xantrex_806_1010_PRO_Series_Inverter_p/xa-806-1010.htm It supplies plenty of affordable AC to the fridge (ours draws 74 watts when running). You'd need to check your fridge's current draw + normal run time as it cycles on/off to figure the ...

Re: jralbert Private message outbox stuck

With MetalHead's notation above, you can use this as sort of a "message has been read" alert, similar to AOL's system for emails sent to other AOL members. A backdoor "email receipt". ;)

Re: 1988 lm318 carburetor

I'm concerned....

... flippin' the rotor so many times could cause cramping...

... best to stop every few " flips " snd re-exercise the fingers/hand...

... grabbing a brewski should work quite well!!!
:-D

And in doing so should keep the "flipper" well oiled as well.

Re: Retrofitting bow anchor platform

Busia, (If you're still alive... :-D ), great story!! I use a plastic ammo box attached to the entrance to the chain/rode locker. I only use 15' of chain attached to my rode which seems to be sufficient to keep the anchor on the bottom and set well. Cutting a hole on each long side of the box allows...

Re: transom gate and swim platform

Jeboniface,

Thanks for posting the pics. Nice work and great detail. Did you need to special order the aluminum channel across the top of the gate?
