Re: Slip or mooring fees
All of those fees seem pretty well inline, EXCEPT the mast pulling at $25/foot. That is outrageous. We have a private crane truck come to the harbor and pull our 49' mast for a flat $225. Are you allowed to pull your mast on your own?

Congratulations! I can't wait to hear about the journey. I see the ice, but I don't see any Guinness in there.

Re: New Boat Inspection
in addition to the above, check for soft spots on deck and especially in the cockpit sole. As for the diesel, Slainte, our 1981 CD27 has the Yanmar YSM8 it cam e to us in 2010 and had only 1260 hours on it - good for another decade or two, although the 8 HP worked for us the later 27s came with a 13...

Re: CD 25 Shaft Length
I think that you have already made up your mind. I will not try to talk you out of what your heart feels is right.

Re: Converting CD30C from Diesel to Electric propulsion
Thanks Keith, It looks like you got it right. I had asked Scott at Electric Yacht for his advice and here is what he said: The prop shaft is electrically insulated from the rest of the motor frame. This is primarily to reduce any chance of stray current corrosion that can occur with faulty ac wiring...

Re: Source for MC 4 Connectors?
John,
Sometimes a big company like that will not sell one or two items, but they will often send you one or two free samples.

Re: Converting CD30C from Diesel to Electric propulsion
We are about ready to test the new install. We just need to connects the last two battery cables and then plug in the throttle, display, and current sensor wires. I do have a question for you guys though. We have the 48V system for the motor and we have a 12V system for the house loads. Does all of ...

The 3-5 day turnaround time from Propeller Depot is now in its14th day and it is still not here :( I did take the old shaft up to the boat today and did a test fit. I rubbed a little hand soap on the old shaft and it just slide right in. As long as I kept...
