Post by MeyrickP »

Does anyone have a check list? Andiamo is a new 1997 28 TE Peninsula to us and we about to leave for 200 mile hike in open water. Any advice?

Here's some starters:
Fuel Filters, Tools and Fluids.
Fire Extinguishers and PFD's at the ready.
Physical Damage Insurance & Towing Insurance - before departing, call to confirm coverage and procedures for making a claim.
Paper Charts & Tide Tables.
