Dick:  Who made your auto prop?  Are you happy with  your stern  mounted 
dinghy davit?  If so, what make and model is  it and how much did it  cost 
you?

With an  AUTOPROP we  get about 7 kits at +/- 2700 RPM.

Galley stove   update.

SEAWARD (562) 699-7997 has made 2 nice upgrades to the  stove  sine our 
stove
was installed in 1999:

1. A grate that  covers the  entire cooking area.  You remove the two 
burners
and  replace.   Part # 73515 - Grate, Full 2BR $50.00   You can  see the new
grate  on their web site.


2. A new broiler pan  that is much heavier and  larger:  part # 50627 -
Broiler Pan  &* Insert Assembly -  &40.00

These are not listed on line  you must call customer  service.

Thanks to a CYC member Tom Dead  for the heads  up.

Bob:

I know whereof you speak,  having sat on a restaurant  deck in Portsmouth 
and
watched boats  fighting that current.  Yikes.

But, on the subject of speed, what  RPMs do you run to get to 7.2  knots? 
Cruising at 2600, we get in the  range of 5.5 to 6  knots.
