Re: [Liveaboard] Battery Pulsers for Sale
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...

Re: [Liveaboard] Battery Pulsers for Sale
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.
