    Every Day Is Like Christmas!!

    I found a pretty large bag of weed on my current boat that the PO shoved waaaaaay back in one of the storage areas… we gave it to a friend who said it was still pretty good. And lots of other stuff, some of which was usable

    If you need insurance, here is who to call!

    Ditto - Peter just helped me with insurance on my new boat. Great guy, excellent resources and gets it done at a very competitive price. I'm looking forward to my new coffee cup, too!

    Recently divorced, should I live on a boat with my kids?

    You've had a number of very insightful replies but I'll add my own after the fact experience, having been through something similar. I'm divorced and have my youngest full time and a few years ago we thought it would be great to live on a boat. It turned out that a teenager has a lot more...

    Battery bank charging

    Saw a few people mention putting together something themselves but I looked at a boat once that had a small diesel DC generator on it - pretty quiet, really low fuel usage. Something like: this one ... there are other manufacturers, this was just one of the first that popped up for me

    Divorcing the Wife and looking to marry a Trawler.

    I was in a similar situation as you a few years ago. I wound up buying my "starter boat" which is a 1989 Bayliner 3870. It has a great floorplan for the footprint and is reasonably easy to handle - I run into a LOT of people that have owned them. Going to a larger boat is a great option if you...
