Installing a smaller engine in my Cygnus 19 and this might be the time to raise the deck slightly to give me a flush deck. I've traditionally used Douglas fir for deck beams in the past but with timber prices being a bit all over the place has anyone got an alternative?

Norris have given me a 7+ week lead time anyway. I forgot about Michigan. Always associate them with outboard and outdrive props. I'll message them, they are only a few miles from me.

Cheapest quote so far is just under £600 just looking to get a few more prices

looking at something like a 15x12 4 blade. Probably aluminium bronze.

Sorry, it sold ages ago. Forgot I'd advertised it here. What's wrong with yours? I've got one here working but the casting cracked. I was going to strip it down but it's one of those non urgent jobs that I plan for the winter but never happens, but while it's all still together there's no chance...

Hi, bringing a little boat down the Thames later in June delivering to Dartmouth. Plenty familiar with the coast but wondering what the best time to leave the Erith area would be can make 7kts but planning for 6. . Any problematic places heading down river?

Did anyone here have a lowrance hook unit and output the GPS data to a DSC radio? I took my Garmin echomap off my little pilot to put it on my Cygnus and then bought a Garmin striker to replace it but it only outputs proprietary data and won't connect to the radio. Wondering if the cheaper...
