throwing away so many of the advantages on the PC side. REPLY For a power user like yourself that argument is valid. But what about the countless others who never go beyond having the little boat icon crawl across the raster display? I have seen several market surveys that indicate many if not the majority of consumer seldom use more than about 10% of the total feature set of the major navigation software packages. Even the argument about updating the charts themselves has holes in it. Not every chart on a CD or chip set changes from year to year. And of those changes which might affect your particular area, how many are significant to your particular boating? When the commercial ship channel markers are realigned to ensure safe passage for a vessel drawing 35 or 40 feet, does it necessarily affect your safety? The majority of NTM concern artificial nav aids in commercial shipping channels and in commercial harbors. Recreational boaters tend to stay away from such places if they can help it. Most secluded anchorages do not have a buoyed channel defining the entrance way. Shorelines and bottom contours seldom change that rapidly, except perhaps in hurricane prone Florida and Gulf area. But when they do, how long does it take for NOAA to resurvey and issue corrected charts? regards Arild --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

structure that holds it. Are you saying you put the caulking gun tip under the stitching and "force the silicone through the stitching? Do you wipe it off on the other side or just let it bead up? What brand/type of clear silicone do you use that doesn't yellow over time? Thanks in advance for the tip.

he fitting metal because of the remaining diesel film. Assuming that is correct, a good seal can only be obtained by actual removal of the fitting and treating with an engine cleaner or such to get a really clean surface for the sealant. Comments?
