electrical current in water
I would like to know if anyone on this site has any information on how to protect an alloy boat from errant current in a marina setting? Going to a slip for the first time and I am concerned about corrosion due to electrical current in the water from leakage at the slips. Thank you, Mike

Re: V1925 water in hull
I had the same problem with my 23 pacific. It . the deck inspection plates. plastic on aluminum expand at different rates I think. Previous owner had same issue and he caulked them shut.

Re: Pacific boat fuel tank, lasted only 11 yrs.
A friend of mine that has a 23 Pacific had a problem where the fuel connection on top of the tank. It corroded away. We had a friend who has a metal shop make one out of stainless, as far as I know no further problems.

Re: Garden hose spray nozzle-
check out the Lonn water saver on Amazon! No handles to break,pretty much a ballistic hose nozzle. I've had one on the boat for at least 5 yrs

non-skid
Anyone have an idea on how to remove non-skid paint from aluminum? tried using a oscillating tool,way too slow ! Boat is a 2002 Pacific. Some paint comes right off, other areas are really on there.

finding cans and nuns
Went on a charter a few years ago and the capt used a big flashlight to find buoy's in the dark. I thought that was a clever idea. I then went out and bought a green laser with an adjustable beam, this thing will light up a buoy miles away. I call it the flashlight from hell!
