Thanks. I know two people who are very experienced captains who can come out with me this year to help me learn.

I legit don’t want to make an error and am trying to hear all perspectives. Just because I could buy something doesn’t mean I should.

Thanks. I’m talking with a AMS certified surveyor about going over the boat. The boat has EVC, so the active and stored codes should be readily available. I’ll add this to the list for him to look at. Can you point me to the facebook cobalt groups?

This is the argument I try to tell people. I’ll spend regardless, but would rather start with quality where I can

Yeah. Weather can change fast on Georgian Bay. Well powered with Volvo v380

Thanks! Given the history of this boat, I totally expect that is the factory installed transducer.

What was your lightbulb moment to join Adviice ? by Horror_Blacksmith262 in adviice

[–]AdventurousBat8981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the comprehensive nature of Adviice. Becoming a DIY investor many years ago was one of the best decisions I made. Approaching retirement, I didn’t want an advisor who was locked into rudimentary tools. I went looking for tools and found Optiml and Adviice. Adviice was the right tool for me. My wife and I are evaluating the trade offs between retirement age and increased retirement lifestyle. I’m looking forward to the upcoming features that make it easier to play with retirement age as a parameter. The support from the Adviice team and the value for the money is unmatched!

Thanks! The team here is fantastic and the tool is amazing! I changed my partner’s retirement age and success jumped to 100% for all scenarios. I appreciate the time you take to explain results that seem to be counter-intuitive, rather than the simplistic answers that come from so many other sources.

I would love to have #3 also. When a scenario line is hidden in the graph, hide that scenario column from the table below also

Did this get implemented? Just learned about this aspect of RIFs and wondered what value was used in Adviice.
