    Garmin-Cummins interface

    Nothing really. Just based on the website and available videos it appears, and restate, appears there might be more support. It does seem a little more robust but that is only based on pictures.

    Garmin-Cummins interface

    I have been doing research on this exact subject today. This items looks like a decent setup and can be configured. My engine is a gas engine. https://actisense.com/products/emu-1-nmea-2000-engine-data/ Looks like it would be best to know the make/model of the sensors on the engines as well as...

    South Pacific Mayday

    2300nm from Ecuador and 1200nm from Nuka Hiva, the first land available. Ok what am I missing? The picture shows him close to shore yet he was a ways away from land. Did he need rescuing and that picture was taken when he was safe? It appears as though he is ok. Did he require being towed in...

    Boat innovations you would implement today!

    I am not an engineer, of any kind, and not necessarily pro electric engine, but if an electric engine that was designed to have low power consumption and produce 100 plus horsepower. Where you could be self sufficient on as few solar panels as possible.

    For Sale 1978 Grand Banks 36 classic, Ventura, CA $109,000

    That is a very nice looking boat. If I were 7 years down the road I would take a serious look at it.

    Tollycraft owners

    Sorry to hear that. I will tell that is the opposite of what I have experienced, although small interaction due to where we live. The Tollycraft Club, from my experience, are a very accepting and welcoming group of people. I will give you and example. In the fall of 2020 they had and impromptu...

    Diesel Duck Pacific Crossing - 22

    35 foot seas would have given me a F8 pucker factor. Wow. Any video of that? The seas, not the pucker factor.

    save fuel and cruising green

    I think debate is good and in no way want to keep healthy debate off of this forum, but I have to point out that I once go reprimanded on this site, by another forum member, for stating "why do we have to continue to buy oil from countries that hate us". Yet here we are delving into the...

    Stern Thruster Installation Cost?

    I recently put both a bow and stern Dockstarthruster on our boat, have not had a chance to use yet, but very easy install, no wiring required and under $5000 for both.

    Boating and Cannabis

    Interesting side note. There is really no good data that pre-employment drug testing effects on the job incidents/injuries. I have worked in the medical industry for 35 years and have had multiple jobs with multiple healthcare entities. Some do pre-employment drug testing and some do not. I...

    Paid for a New Furuno, Got an Old Furuno

    Have you reached out to this governmental agency? https://www.competitionbureau.gc.ca/eic/site/cb-bc.nsf/eng/04339.html https://www.consumerprotectionbc.ca/ I am a firm believer that it is incumbent on all of us to highlight obvious fraud in any industry to help future consumers. I am not...

    Bad fuel tank - looking for options

    I recently checked into the poly tanks myself because I had a leaking tank. I called the company, they are in TN, do not remember the name, and asked if they could be used in the engine room. He said they were not recommended to be placed in the engine room. Not sure if that is an issue with...

    Takacat Inflatable Tenders

    We bought the longer version, 14 feet, and a 20 HP engine. We have not had a chance to use it yet. Based on everything I read and watched I believe that it is going to be a good tender. The design looks like it will keep you dry, even in rougher water. You can beach them because they do have...
