Since you're on the east coast and I'm in the PNW how about some "Pacific Yachting" and "Canadian Yachting West" 2013-2014?

If you have a chance I'd be specifically interested in issues covering Trans Atlantic Voyages since that's the way my Blue Water dreams are headed(long long way in future)....just have to reinforce the Hull on my :macx: for icebergs :o Just kidding, actually I'll be hoping to do it in an offshore Cat, so if there are any issues with Atlantic Cats on the cover :wink: Seriously you don't need to sort, it would just be a bonus if there was something along those lines.

Sorry but shipping to Ca is a deal breaker for me. About 24 issues would fit in a $12 medium flat rate box for US delivery, but it jumps up to over $40 for canada :? . BTW my sister left the east coast a few years ago and moved just south of you in Bellinham Wa without looking back. We visited last summer for 2 weeks, beautiful area.

I might be able to help here as Im a Milgram Connector.

I visit both of these area frequently and could potentially shuffle this stuff if you aren't hot to get it earlier than 1-2 months.

yukonbob,
I guess the swap is off for me since you have not replied to my pm (see below) from Tuesday Sept 9.
Please advise if otherwise, I would still like the :macm: Main.

OK, sorry I did not pm you for this at first, the rules said to "quote, and reply" so that is what I did. I really needed the jib, but will still take the main. please let me know exact shipping, and payment method.

Thanks, No Control

Sorry I haven't been able to get back to you, been out of town on work most of the week. Even if you had Pm'd me you wouldn't have made it on the jib Seapup was on it first thing Monday morning. I plan to package items up today and get exact shipping costs tomorrow or monday. I will confirm before I ship. It appears based on a 24" x 24" x 4 - 20 lb package to be roughly $60 CND through Canada Post (via USPS) online. I would prefer to do COD but may not be available for shipping outside Canada. I will PM you when I have exact numbers.

Thanks to yukonbob, I now have this great marine stove. As soon as I saw it listed on swap meet, I knew I wanted it. Me and the admiral have been looking at these stoves for over a year. He shipped it all the way from Canada to Atlanta. You might think shipping was high; it wasn't; less than $50. Considering stove new on Internet is $355, plus shipping, it was a great investment.We were able to find a cutting board at Wally World that was already the right size and fit perfect.

On behalf of Patti and myself, hats off again to Yukonbob.

Garmin Charts

Just passing this info along I found elsewhere. If you do a search there are posts on a bunch of boards about it. I am always a skeptic so I emailed navionics and it seems legit. I received a response from a Scott Walcott at Navionics, he said they would mail me a card so will see if they show up and how they compare to the Vision charts on my echomap. His email is his first initial and lastname at navionicsdotcom


This is posted on a bunch of different boards:
Navionics is releasing their "Sonar Charts for Garmin" at the start of the year. These will show 1ft. contours in coastal regions out to 80 ft (in addition to over 18,000 lakes). 80 - 250 ft depth will be 3 ft. contours and deeper than 250 ft. will be 6 ft. contours.
This will improve the data available on your Garmin chartplotter. Navionics is looking for people to try these chart chips out and get your opinion before the launch of the product.
