Mike, I considered binding absolutely necessary as we had berber carpet ,that wears very well ,but can unravel if not bound. I would think you would want to bound most carpet for the same reason and

Found it. The website Igot a quote from is gone. Here is the brand: Aquamat. If you do a search forthe brand, you can find retailers. With best regards, Mark Skipper Sailing Vessel

After 20+ years of service, the compass on Talia (SM#209) has developed an air bubble (astonishing service life by today's standards). The compass is a Plastimo Olympic 135. My intention was to

Hi Mike, Sorry that didn’t work out. Thanks for letting me know itis no longer available. Too bad, carpet has lasted well for us and still looksgood. When I replace ours, I did consider

With the frustration of not finding a urethane foam backed broadloom carpet (apparently available in Canada, but not the US) I am considering a thick carpet without backing. My concern was about

Mike, Diane and I replaced our carpet about ten years ago,we went up the Airbase carpet mart in New Castle ,bought a short nap berber in beige ,used the old carpets as templates ,cut the new carpet

I know it violates your stated desire for a diaphragm pump, but I think the Marco gear pumps are the cat's meow. I think you'd be happy with a #3 or a #6. They are simple, robust, quiet, and very

We have the aqua king 2 and love it. Good pressure with both showers going. Very reliable in that we've been full time live-aboards for 10 years and I've replaced it once.......with a spare I seemed

CorrosionX is a sailor's best friend! I could tell you dozens of similar stories. If you own an Amel and do not have one of these, you will spend a lot more money than those who do have one of

A related recommendation (may be helpful to others in future searches). Our bilge pump activation switch began to fail, staying on even after the cord pulled the switch down and into the off

Hi Nick, if I understand you correctly the cracked part is the curved piece that carries the balls around the end. I had the same and the replacement car was expensive so almost for the fun of trying

Hi Nick. If I understand you correctlt th

I don't think I'd go with 55psi. I've had both 25psi and 40psi ParMax 4's on board for the past seven years. They are not super-long lived (but then again, they get ~lots~ of hours on them) and
