Also, when applying pressure to unscrew it, bang the boat with the soft side of your first. Anywhere near the deck port works. But this will, in ess...

5. Did someone forgot to turn on the fan before leaving the shore again? 6. Can I get a tow back in? 7. Who wants to get wet??!?! Jonathan Nacra...

I think this is a great idea. I would go with any F18 setup. Pretty much same size and you could get into with replacement parts a plenty. When I d...

EC, I am not laying fiberglass on the insides. I applaud you for popping the decks off for access inside. That scares me and I don't plan on popping...

Following this.... I have an 18.2 that I am going to tackle a bottom job here in the next week or so. Have the west epoxy stuff to do it. Hope it d...

Ropewalker, I have sailed with a guy that had a hooter on a P19 many years ago. Sailed upwind an a light breeze with it but it was a handful. Yea, ...

You guys have me all concerned on taking the boat down to Mexico for a couple days later this week. 🙄

Loved the slow motion video backwards.... I have had a crew do that. Funny watching them take a splash like I did it on purpose to them.

Might be in the market for an older F18 in southern Cali. Any one out there looking to upgrade and sell their boat? Jonathan Mesa, AZ

I really like the black crossbars and mast! Jonathan

Cool video. Love the black boat color scheme. May I ask how you got the black paint to stick on the crossbars, mast, etc? Jonathan

Mark, I know you were in the process of getting certified years ago. Did you finally get certified? Did you make a purchase? Jonathan
