I started boating later in life and have spent the last several years with a wide variety of small boats, outboard engines and electric outboard motors. When it comes to boats and boating, I'm not a professional by any means but I share what I learn and my experiences good and bad. I want you to get the most out of boating whatever your budget - and to have days filled with good trips out on the water!

You can also find me on Instagram, Facebook and even Reddit!

A small (3 hp equivalent) electric outboard motor is $3,000 - which inspires people to build their own.

Does your motor have tilt/trim built in? Some smaller outboard's don't have that option. I tried out bracket that isn't cheap, but it answers a question...

Sometimes a video just doesn't do very well, despite our best efforts. This was one of those videos! I planned it for months. I sought out an inexpensive sextant and purchased it. I had to do quite a bit of research and build the story. But the reality was that very few people are interested in sextants and there's plenty other videos out there that teach those people how to use one! Anyway, if you're looking to learn a little something, here's that video!

In Maryland, our winters are unpredictable. Some years, it is cold, but rarely below freezing and almost no snow. Other years, it can be the opposite. We have had several years of mild winters until this winter. This is our third snow for the winter - and there's several weeks left! The temps won't be above freezing for at least a week.
Needless to say, this weather has kept me busy doing many 'non-YouTube' things! Stay safe out there!

Playlist Tuesday! Last week I started putting together a new playlist of "video essays" These are general boating topics - not repair videos or product reviews.
This playlist is a collection of my video essays that are related to boats, the boating industry, and specific boat related topics that are sometimes controversial.
