Re: Flotation

John I don’t know what the story is with it, I’ve driven by it a hundred times now over the last few years and my wife is tired of me pointing it out “Still there!”. At one point it had a large sign or notice stuck on the side of the hull, most recently I noted apparent repairs on the starboard side...

Re: Electric gremlin

In a pinch and to verify, you could always quickly swap load with another 15A breaker, that would verify that was the source before replacement . As Duane said though breakers do have finite lives, tripping can shorten them.

Re: ICW Northbound-newbie

We just passed north out of the Dismal, currently lying High Street inlet, Portsmouth VA. If you’re at all apprehensive about the weather the Dismal is very protected and secure, but if time is a priority transit is very slow. I expect zero delivery captains take the Dismal, however for those who ch...

Re: Hardtops-a-building for Looking Glass

To follow up, my tower is labeled as made by Atlantic Towers out of Bayville, NJ. They have a robust web site at http://www.atlantictowers.com. Their database indicates they’ve also built one for a 2003 PDQ 34 (no pictures however).

Re: Hardtops-a-building for Looking Glass

In my case I would expect so, there’s a label on the uprights indicating it was made by “Atlantic” (per my notes), if you want I’ll see what else is on the label tomorrow and post that here. Sorry but I don’t know if this was done out of of the factory or commissioned by the PO.

Re: Hardtops-a-building for Looking Glass

On mine the hardtop is notched to accommodate the mast. Here's a picture for anyone interested. (I've since removed the satellite receiver and replaced the digital antenna with one mounted on the mast).

Re: Hardtops-a-building for Looking Glass

There are at least 2 MV PDQs with hard top Biminis, an MV34 out of Punta Gorda and my 2001 MV32, hull 004 (new to me). It has two solar panels and in the 2 years I’ve owned it I haven’t seen a bridge yet (throughout south Florida) that I would have only cleared with a folding Bimini. Happy to have i...
