3" to 4" long wrapping around the corner. I'll try to get a picture up this weekend.

It's to the lower right of the cable hose. It looks like it is the same location as on Jeff's Windward if I am remembering Jeff's photos correctly.

I have absolutely no fiberglass/epoxy experience and must get my leaking C26 keel trunk glassed ASAP. You guys may see photos of another kind of cluster coming out of Texas soon.

We saw a blue Chrysler 22 going east on Arapaho Road in Richardson, TX last Sunday night. I wanted to turn around and chase them but the wife was only interested in getting home. I think most women will never "Get" us.

Nice work Bill! I watched your other videos too. Now I can tackle my port lights. I've been scared to start them.

It was either Home Depot or Lowes. I go to both so often I forget what I got where. I will look it up when I get home late tonight. Make sure that is this light if you do. It's the only one I could find with enough rim to drill into.

Scott is right on! I plan to mount mine the way Jeff did on Windward. Specially made removable lower hatch board with a little plug for the light. It's the perfect solution for me since I rarely need it. I love having both sides of the boat to rest our backs on.

Thanks for sharing this data collection task with us Scott. LED nav lights are generally 1/10 the draw of their incandescent counterparts. They run much brighter at a much cooler temperature for a lifetime. I went with new fixtures on the bow because nobody makes a worthwhile bulb replacement. I thi...

You are correct sir. The Longhorns are on a port tack. The trouble is that Tiny (second from left) is a demon cow and most likely to become first at the dinner table. Tiny waits until I'm down inside the boat and then knocks the ladder down stranding me high. That is one mischievous cow! She is a ba...

Thanks . . . I'll try those apps when we're back in the water. I went ahead and upgraded my 6 year old Razr Sunday afternoon. I got my first Smartphone in the Galaxy S II Skyrocket. It has a brighter and slightly larger screen. No shut down issue. As for getting in the water . . . I have the keel tr...

Just keep the pressure low. Yes 40psi will blast through almost anything. 20psi is good on mine but other models/tips may need more or less. Play with it on unimportant stuff and wear a face shield and gloves. There is no better way . . . in my opinion. It cleans non skid grooves like magic. Rust on...

Sailing . . . much better to think about.
