jimjazzdad liked post by nolatom On thread : New York Ferry

I would bet on prop control failure depriving capt of reverse, or enough reverse. But we'll see. New reg coming, I would think--"stay seated till vessel is stopped, don't line up early at the...

jimjazzdad liked post by JonEisberg On thread : Cruising to Central America with Guns

That's very sad... I spent about a 5 weeks in Belize a few years ago, and left with the same opinion about cruising with weapons that I've always had... I doubt I'll ever go back there, however,...

I have a non-pressurized alcohol stove (an Origo) on my boat and the ONLY drawback I've ever found to it is that it's totally silent (that's actually a plus and a minus: I can't tell just by...

jimjazzdad liked post by MastUndSchotbruch On thread : kerosene stoves.. WHAT HAPPENED!

I have posted several times on SN about my 10+ years with the kero stove/oven on my boat. The only 'downside' is that it takes 3 minutes to pre-heat, a process which I actually enjoy since it makes...

Here is something to consider: Humans have been in environments with mold for all of our history. There is mold almost everywhere. People who have sensitivities to mold could have serious...
