What’s the best process to let it grey? I have about have the teak sanded, toe rail has varnish which is starting to flake off.

Thank you! I have seen this before, and it's probably pretty close. Surprised they didn't do something similar for this edition.

Does anyone know where I can find a link to the sail inventory for the VO65 and Imoca boats? thx

That was a fascinating read. Thx

You are absolutely correct. If I’m not mistaken, approximately 75% of the TNF retail sales were on fleece products. They wanted 80% of the floor filled with fleece. Very little if any sleeping bags, packs, and tents are on the floor let alone in the store. Exactly!

Damn, I kept typing musto.org. No wonder the linky no worky. At one point in my career, I worked for one of the premier technical outerwear companies. I was privy to the R&D costs, margins, etc. Once the manufacturing was outsourced out of the US, the quality dropped, and the margins increased...

I have no problem paying for a quality product. You always get what you overpay for. However, how does a Garmin chart plotter (entry level) start at approximately $1K, and some Ocean jackets/smocks sell for well over $1K?

HA! Plenty of snakes rolling around here!

Depends what you are looking for. Solid racing scene, then that's Chicago for sure. Waukegan or Kenosha could be worth considering if you are looking for a more laid-back experience. Younger days, Chicago was the place to be for the action. racing and scene. The older me, likes more of the...

Catching a lobster, cooking it (bbq pit) on an island in a tropical location. With a supersized mai tai! 

Boat is 34ft. Both Spinlocks - XTS - 8-14, XAS - 6-12 Thank you, fist time boat owner, so I have many questions and not sure where to start at times. 

I was gifted two clutches and trying to determine the best use for these if I'm singlehanding. I have self tailing winches for the jib sheets but everything else is on a cleat. All my halyards, topping lift, are running to the cockpit.  I'm new to singlehanded sailing, so any suggestions are...

I would rather eat shit and die in the ocean than sitting in a room at some senior housing facility.  This guy does not seem to be floating and drifting around like Rimas!  Send it!

I'm doing a complete electronics refit.  I have AIS (transmit - receive) - Garmin - I understand that the GPS Antenna will integrate with the tablet for location but want a redundant system.  Garmin MHU -  Navlink router thing -  I decided at this point not to install a chart plotter. The...

I just purchased a refurbished gen3 ipad. Great comment on the daytime display. I'm glad somebody else noticed that this (gps info) is not obvious on the spec section.  Fuck it, I have blown through my budget this year. BOAT BOAT BOAT BOAT!!!!!!!!!!  Bust out another thousand! 

Will the GPS enabled tab-ipad only work while in WIFI or cell range? Or would it work with my AIS GPS antenna?  Now the internal GPS tablets will work with or without the AIS GPS antenna.  I guess the main question is, what is the least expensive tablet that will work with Navionics out of...

I'm finding GPS enabled, but I'm not sure if GPS enabled will work like Internal GPS? The farther down the rabbit hole I go, more confusing it gets.  You would think this is a common feature listed on the spec section, but it's not. 

Been doing some research and getting so many mixed messages I can't tell any longer.  I'm looking for an inexpensive tablet that would work with Navionics. Any suggestions are welcome.  Thanks!
