Boat Projects Page

From time to time there is a need to do a boat project.  I figured I'd put some pages up as time permits on items that might be of interest to other boat owners, as well as present my current dilemmas.

1.

A simple voltage regulator: This isn't for your alternator. It's to run battery powered devices off of your battery bank. The problem is that battery operated radios, GPS bbom boxes or what ever, usually run on 3-9 volts and an adapter is usually required. I fgured that it was easier and cheaper to make one myself. This will cost about 2 bucks. Take a look at it here.

   

2.

Catalac windows (not ports, we have real glass windows) have been known to leak a bit now and then. I describe a workable fix on the Window repair page

For those of us concerned about creating a short wave antenna on our boats. This is the bible. Click here to get a copy of The US Navy Antenna Manual in PDF format. The reader to view this manual is a free download at www.adobe.com
