    Moon Light Picture received, Rick. Ah, moonlight..."that tender light which Heaven to gaudy day denies." I think that was Byron. Anyway, it's strange how modern cameras can make a night time moon shot look like dusk. Here's a picture of Annabel Lee trucked in for the night behind one of...

    Tides Marine Strong Track

    Kissing Kin Rick, Since we have the same boat I will be very interested in your assessment of the new track system. Do you have a full batten main? Larry Lee Annabel Lee E 32-200 Savannah, GA

    LinxLITE Blues

    Moo Tarninies Tom, You are on. Next time I'm up your way we will have two martinis. After all, the best thing about a martini is the second one. Thanks again Larry

    LinxLITE Blues

    Problem Solved Many thanks to Tom Metzger for advising me to check connections before dumping my LinxLITE. I went back and checked every connection again. Cleaned and reconnected. BINGO. the whole system woke up and is cooking again. Thanks Tom Larry Lee Annabel Lee E 32-200 Savannah, GA

    LinxLITE Blues

    I have a Xantrex LinkLITE monitoring my modest house bank comprised of two 24’s maybe providing, when fully charged, 155 amp hours. It’s enough for what we do but recently the little guy has been giving me fits. It tells me that my batteries are at 8.6 or 9.1 volts when my volt meter tells me...

    Re-bedding ports

    Been there... done that Please don't EVER THINK about 5200. I used to use caulks like 3M 100, now out of production, but recently I have had better luck with butyl tape. RV shops sell it although some Vikings have expressed concerns about butyl. Anyway, It's fairly easy to use. I put one...

    Turning Icebox Into Yeti Cooler

    Beefed up box Rick is right. (Hi Rick) I did extra insulation on my icebox using 1 in. pink foam from Home Depot, West systems epoxy and some fiberglass to protect the inside of the box. Started by cutting out cardboard templates which I used to cut foam pieces. I painted the interior panel...

    Replacing Windows on an 88 E32-200

    Gasket warning Select Plastics did a great job on rebuilding and reglazing both my hatches. They also sell lenses and rubber gasket material (by the foot) for the port holes. There is an "old gasket" size and a "new gasket" size. My 1988 uses the old style. Make sure you get the right thickness...

    Ignition wiring

    Starter Woes I think I made every modification suggested in the above posts over a two year period and still Miss Annabel would refuse to start on the occasions I really needed her to do so. Like blowing down on a lee shore. Needing to reset a dragging anchor. I mean I separated the starter...

    Lovely boat Wow, There really is something special about an Independence. We had one pull into Savannah a couple of years ago and it got all over the marina that an Ericson Independence 31 was present. What fun. Wish I could remember the number. Larry Lee Annabel Lee E 32-200 Savannah, GA

    Three more Here we have the Admiral a/k/a Severe Storm Specialist K.I.Tolvstad practicing removing her hands from the wheel just before she guesses the lightning will strike. The lightning was everywhere. I am below avoiding contact with metal in case I will be needed topside if anything...

    Pump? Rick, Nice sole looking sole. One question: Where is your fresh water Whale foot pump? I am assuming the one that is visible is saltwater and ice box drain.

    Location of Battery Charger on 88 E32

    Lust is as lust does Tom, I love my 32-200 and only old age and/or dementia would cause me (or my guardians) to ever sell her. Your picture looks just like my locker except for the charger, that chandelier, and the little shelf on the right (aft) of the locker. My experience with being out on...
