    Windshield wiper replacement

    I need to replace the windshield wiper arm and blade. Anyone know the brand for the arm? I can't find a manufacturer on the part and there are a lot of options. I have a 2320.

    Got my 9X24 tabs today. Possible problem

    I am retaining my Lenco actuators but replacing the 12X12 tabs with 9X24 bennetts. I received the 9X24s today. When I went to line things up I realized the mount on the tab plate will have to be several inches ahead of where the 12" tabs were. Since I am relocating the actuator anyway, is it...

    Going larger trim tabs. Lenco or Bennett???

    I recently took off my Permatrim and now feel the need for bigger tabs. I keep my boat in the water and somewhere I heard Bennetts might be better. Any feedback would be appreciated. Dave

    Catalina Island (CA) Bonito. VIDEO

    It's been a little slow around here lately, so here's a late post on a trip we had a couple of weeks ago. Still some tuna lingering but I have not been able to make the long trip out to where they are. Even reports of Threshers still being caught but we already CPR'd three and harvested our one...

    VIDEO - SoCali tuna on the Nostrovia. ZZ Top tunes

    9/12/2008 YFT, Albacore and Dorado caught about 30 miles offshore, AKA The 181. We lost just as many as we caught. Mostly on the 15 and 20# line. As we got more patient... we got more fish. The trick was to get ahead of a pod or porpoise then soak the live sardines. At one point, we had a quad...

    Personal best Yellowtail. Catalina Island CA

    A spot came open on the Dreamer so I decided to give Nostrovia a break and go out with my son Matt and some new friends who turned out to be a great bunch of guys. The WSB were wide open for 30 minutes and Matt nailed 3. A couple were tanker models. I had what I thought was a record croaker that...

    Shade for our 2320

    I wanted some relief from the sun but didn't want any poles or straps to get in the way of fishing. I had some ideas but ended up working with Tom from Saltwater Specialties who came up with this design. The rocket lauchers can still be accessed obvoulsly not as easily as before but they can...

    Advice on adding a third battery

    I want to install a third battery which will be used for the house. There is room next to the existing batteries, but I might wire an AGM up front. Do I buy a three-battery switch or parallel the new battery to number two with somthing to keep it from discharging it? Trying to be a...

    Any word on the Parker 34'????

    Does anyone have any scoop on these? The dealer says next year but I can't find any info on them. I googled key words and searched this site with nada. There has to be some "spy pics" or something. Nostrovia, Dave

    Telescoping outrigger advice

    Any comments on these such as made by Taco would be appreciated. I just don't have a good feeling about them. I am looking at them as I trailer my boat and was concerned about gas stations, bridges, etc. dave

    San Diego Albacore. Broken gaff.

    Went about 50 miles out of San Diego and started trollin towards the 182. Lots of radio chatter. Everyone was sharing information and no-one was worried about keeping "secrets". We caught one nearer the 181 then nada for an hour. Then we discovered our lines were twisted! CRAP! Our gaff broke...

    Mounting gunwale speakers. Drilling holes.

    All of my stereo equipment was delivered. I am mounting these gunwale mount speakers and will be using SS screws to attach them. My question is, how thick is the top of the gunwale? I do not want to drill through. Pic of speakers attached. dave

    The first Mr. T for our boat at 0730 after trollin for about 40 minutes. We saw jumpers and birds working hard so we turned about and were in a pod of dolphins. We straightened out and got hit on 40# line. Almost three hours we had'm roped on the side of the boat. Weighed in at 163. Had my...

    Vinyle graphics. Got the name on her!

    I wanted to have the name on her before first splash but the place I had in mind was no longer there. I found a store that made them up for me at $16.00 each. "Nostrovia!" translates To your health. It was always a toast by my mom at family functions. dave

    Picked up my 2320 :)

    OH MY GAWD! Very restless sleep for the past 3 days but I got her! Everything turned out perfect, but not without some worries. Sample worries... Would the Expedition tow it from San Diego to OC? It did a great job. Stayed under 60 which is OK. Driveway = 30'... Boat and trailer = 33'. Had the...
