[Liveaboard] Whatever Floats Your Boat :)

2012-05-19 Thread Vernon Densler
Well We got the boat floating again and temporary plugs over the holes. The good thing is that both of the pilings were actually wood and Sam's step son was able to cut them out under the water. She is moved to a safer location with the damaged hull close to shore so we can try to jack the hull

Wondering if the stern locker is full from the skeg breaking off and if the water looked like it wasn't going down because it was coming from there as I pumped it out. I guess I will find out soon. 2 pump should almost be enough to pump the whole river out. -Original Message- From:

So not a good day at all. Got the 3 pump and managed to pump the hull out enough to see not only the last thing I expected but the last thing I wanted to see. There is a 4 concrete piling skewering my hull. I was able to slow the water down enough that the sump pump is keeping it almost empty.

Actually looking at a Necchi Super Nova right now. If it's in good shape and the seller will sell it for the right price I think I may jump on it. -Original Message- From: liveaboard-boun...@liveaboardonline.com [mailto:liveaboard-boun...@liveaboardonline.com] On Behalf Of Bob Johnson

They make zigzag attachments for some machines. From what I have been reading 2 rows of very long straight stitch would be about the same as a zigzag when it comes to fabric strength. Most covers and things are straight stitch. One thing I read said that straight stitch was actually better for

Vern, to do the job right you need a walking foot machine. Like the sailrite LSZ-1 From what I am reading you can get a walking foot add-on for almost any machine. Looks like the main reason for the walking foot is when you are doing multiple layers which I don't plan on doing too much.

My cover on my roller furling jib started to unstitch from the sail. Besides getting a very expensive industrial machine, what would the best used machine be for this kind of work? An old solid metal Singer comes to mind. Will something like that work? What do I need to look for to make sure I

That is the opposite of what I heard. I heard on a lot of printers if you leave them on the heat causes the ink to dry out. How would leaving it on keep it from drying out? Unless it purges the ink every so often. Again that Kodaks are really good. -Original Message- From:

I have to second that. I love my Kodak all in one. The transformer is a separate power brick like a laptop and is 36v at 60w for the output. So it might be possible to run it from a 12v source with the proper transformer. I would imagine that the non all in one version doesn't need anywhere
