I have a handheld Garmin. I purchased a Garmin map of the US Virgin Islands for a catamaran trip we took. The map was provided on a microSD card that I installed in the handheld Garmin. I was able to access the new map of the USVI on the handheld. Do you think that may be the purpose of the slot on ...

One plate is used against the fiberglass and mates with the holding bracket (Part Number F16-0080). I used the other plate on the backside of the storage compartment. It's not a metal plate, ...

Nice!

The dealer completed the repair today!

No special filters, just an iPhone SE.

What's the latest on the recall issued by one of Cobalt's suppliers, Dometic Marine, for steering cables installed in Model Year 2023 Cobalt boats.
I'm still waiting on the dealer to complete the repair. The notification came out April 5th.
