Re: [Liveaboard] Battery Pulsers for Sale

2012-11-15 Thread SteveW
We fared okay with the exception of a bimini deck fitting which pulled out. 
I can rout out, epoxy, and re-drill and re-attach myself without making any 
insurance claim. Besides if I had the yard do it, the cost wouldn't come 
close to my deductible so I didn't make any claim.

Other boats weren't so lucky with one boat belonging to a friend of mine was 
completely totaled. Captive has her bow cleats right on the toerail so when 
the mooring line loops are over the cleat, there's nothing for them to 
chafe on.  On my friend's boat, his mooring lines ran through chocks to his 
bow cleats which are mounted inboard and aft of the bow. The resulting chafe 
(and he did use chafe guards!!!) parted the lines (sustained 65-75 with many 
gusts to 85-90!!!) and off she went to end up on the rocks at the other side 
of the harbor.

If you send me off-list your 'private' email address, I'll send photo's. 
Not a pretty site.

We're actually planning on sailing this weekend since the forecast is for 
great weather with temps around 55 so ski clothing should be perfect...

Hey, Steve -

I've been wanting to call you, but my phone died and then went into the
drink (yes, in that order, and no, not on purpose :), so I've lost your
number. How did you make out with Sandy? How is Captiva? I at least
know that you're OK, which is a good thing; I've been trying to catch up
with all my friends in the area just to make sure that they are - and
everyone seems to be alive and well, for which I'm truly grateful.

My temp # is 347-764-6625. Please give me a call when you can.


Best,
Ben

I would like to see the photos Steve. Thanks.
The chafe is the killer. I may have mentioned before that our first
surveyor about 15 yrs ago told me he was a former USCG officer  engineer
and did insurance claim investigations. He said in many many hurricanes he
had never seen a boat with a BOW EYE attachment that had been destroyed.
