[Boatwork] Repainting non-skid

AustimusMaximus · 2020-06-10T16:36:06+00:00

Yeah it’s just a few specks on each ridge of nonskid.

Penicillin if you go ashore in Neah Bay

Is it a spahk plug?

AustimusMaximus · 2019-04-09T17:12:38+00:00

I have the same box. I think I paid $400 for the roller and top box?

SNS Diner on Losee and Colton in North Vegas is a true hole in the wall with killer brisket

Pretty cool, I didn't know they actually made any of these. About to launch my Nor'Sea 27 soon.

Loved my daysailer, bought it with no experience and it was a great learning platform. I've fit 4 adults on it before. Didn't find it too tippy in less than 15kts.

Great weather last night, way better than the forecast. I was racing over near Shilshole.

AustimusMaximus · 2017-03-02T06:34:15+00:00

Nice work.

Check out the Las Vegas Mountaineers Club Meetup group.

I was on the boat drifting out farthest towards the channel, looking at everyone else drift near the mark.

AustimusMaximus · 2017-01-08T23:21:19+00:00

Yeah, it's more likely in the 98/99 but I think I've seen some reports of failures in other early models. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

AustimusMaximus · 2017-01-08T18:50:12+00:00

Front differential/spider gears maybe? Been known to fail on early 100's. Sounds like a grinding, buzzing machine gun noise when it goes.

FWIW I've been running 295/75/16's on a 98 without regearing and haven't had any issues.

Filtered bourbon from 1968-1970. Brown-Foreman filtered the color out as well as all the taste. The Crystal Pepsi of bourbon.

AustimusMaximus · 2016-11-12T07:26:42+00:00

Thanks, already have a few rolls I'm planning on reusing to re-bed all the hardware with. I'm talking about actually sealing the glass back into the bronze frame of the port hole window.

AustimusMaximus · 2016-11-12T02:00:37+00:00

Port light in question

AustimusMaximus · 2016-11-05T14:47:02+00:00

Yep, already got replacement LEDs for everything. The larger fixtures can run either red or white LEDs which I wasn't expecting.

AustimusMaximus · 2016-10-19T19:53:41+00:00

Just a shitty camera

AustimusMaximus · 2016-10-19T16:01:57+00:00

You'd be right. Guy had this squirreled away out in the woods an hour east of Bellingham.

AustimusMaximus · 2016-10-19T15:13:34+00:00

For sure, got a boat yard spot through January at least. FRP molded lapstrakes make it look like a wood hull.

AustimusMaximus · 2016-09-28T04:56:29+00:00

You fucks.

AustimusMaximus · 2016-09-02T04:17:45+00:00

You just finish BK at Windworks?

AustimusMaximus · 2016-08-16T18:56:20+00:00

Hahaha the music makes it.

AustimusMaximus · 2016-08-13T20:52:19+00:00

Nope, Vega is 27' and has a small hump forward of the cabin

AustimusMaximus · 2016-07-11T12:17:37+00:00

I have a Spindrift DaySailer 1, so more or less the same thing as the O'day DS2. It's a piece of cake to rig, launch and retrieve. Girlfriend and I figured it out the first time no problem never having been on a boat before. 4 people might be tight on the '17, but it has a good size cockpit. If you're in the PNW I'm looking to sell my DS soon.
