Nice Zodia Projet
2001 11' Zodiac ProJet 350 - $6595 (san rafael)
Date: 2010-11-21, 12:36AM PST
Reply to: sale-2fgfb-2072045742@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]
Only 29 hours on this clean 2001 Zodiac ProJet 350. Used as a tender for a larger yacht and always garaged or covered this boat is in excellent condition. Reliable 84HP Yamaha makes it fun to drive with the safety of a Zodiac.
Maintains exceptional stability, even at high speeds in high seas. The tubes can also be removed to make the boat easier to handle and store.
Comfortable Interior: The ProJet doesn’t sacrifice comfort for the sake of speed, it can accommodate up to 6 passengers comfortably, even while maintaining superior handling and acceleration. The ProJet features standard equipment like a large aft locker, swimming platform, and a water ski towing ring. It also has a low-slung profile: the pilot seat backrest and steering wheel can be folded down for easy storage.
When it comes to performance, this boat is the second to none. The throttle is very responsive, and it can get up to top speed 45 miles per hour in a matter of seconds. The deep V-shaped hull ensures a smooth ride, even in not-so-smooth waters, and jet propulsion allows for instant planing, even with multiple passengers on board.
High-capacity fuel tank provides for long-range cruising. Includes a new Galvanized Pacific trailer, life jackets, full cover, fire extinguisher and safety equipment. $6,595.

Yosmite Waterslides - Off 120 - Tenaya Creek
Took the whole family and friends to the Yosemite natural watersides. It was a perfect day in the mid seventies albeit smokey from the fires and the mosquitos were out in force. I must be pretty bitter because I didn't get bit to much but my youngest and my wife got torn up.
The slides are about an hour and ten minute drive from the house and then a two mile hike in. They are way off trail so unless you know where they are you won't find them. The slide only go off for about two to three weeks per year. Too early and it's super cold, fast moving water. Too late and it can be dry as a bone. This is the same spot I lost my wedding ring two years ago. We didn't find it today.
The hike in
Nice little swimming hole

This smile sums up the day. If you are 36 or 11 this was plastered all over everyone's face.
The hike out. My three year old made it all the in and out with out any help.
And last but not least a scenic shot.
Good stuff and a super fun day with the family and friends. Video to follow

New Superjet!
So dad went to get me a round nose 1997 Superjet from a guy named Randy from Paso and he works at San Luis Salvage. I think it was a good deal. We'll have to ride it and give it a try! Can't wait!

Connect your NPN transistor with the emitter to ground then you can calculate the resistor in this way:
R = (Vin - 0.7)/Ib
Where:
Vin = pic output (5 v)
0.7 = base/emitter diode threshold
Ib = desired base current ( 2mA is what you need for saturating 20 mA load)
Nearest value = 2,2 K
LM555 can be connected directly to 9 V PS and the output (pin 3) can drain your 20 mA load without any problem. So you can connect your led + 330 ohms directly to the IC.

IC max. Maximum collector current.
VCE max. Maximum voltage across the collector-emitter junction.
You can ignore this rating in low voltage circuits.
hFE This is the current gain (strictly the DC current gain). The guaranteed minimum value is given because the actual value varies from transistor to transistor - even for those of the same type! Note that current gain is just a number so it has no units.
The gain is often quoted at a particular collector current IC which is usually in the middle of the transistor's range, for example '100@20mA' means the gain is at least 100 at 20mA. Sometimes minimum and maximum values are given. Since the gain is roughly constant for various currents but it varies from transistor to transistor this detail is only really of interest to experts.
Why hFE? It is one of a whole series of parameters for transistors, each with their own symbol. There are too many to explain here.

Nice hobie / anderson skiff boat with cabin
Hi all,
New to this forum and fishing. Thought I'd post a few photos of my Hobie Skiff remodel. Hull was stripped and sent to local boat builder in Santa Barbara, CA. The blue one posted earlier is an aquaintence of mine, lives in the same area that I do. I got the idea from him. The difference between mine and his, I did all of the hardware/motor mount fit myself. The same boat builder did his complete. Once it was returned to me, I spent about 9 months with the fit process.
The boat was built for local waters to explore for surf, I've surfed all of my life and as mentioned in the previous paragraph, have began to take rod and reel with me on my surf exploration adventures.
I have photo essay of the complete rebuild if someone is interested, can email them.
ep

jetski pump cone
The cone ends up right at the entrance of the nozzle. If this cone is longer, then it causes a smaller passage way for the water to flow into the nozzle, thus raising the velocity. However, if the cone is short and stubby, it will allow a larger volume of water to go through, thus giving you more bottom end acceleration for freestyle.
The Adjust-A-Thrust constantly shifts back and forth, changing
the size of the pumps exit nozzle automatically. For maximum low end, the center shuttle is retracted, opening up the nozzle and allowing a large volume of water to be moved to accelerate the craft. As craft speed and pump pressure build, the tapered center shuttle is forced out into the exit nozzle, reducing its size and increasing water velocity, which increases top speed. Letting off the gas lets the shuttle backshift into low gear.

Sea-doo 787 Motors Speedster Sportster
The Rotax 787cc engine was and still is, one of the most reliable engines Rotax assembled. The 717cc was/is a good engine too, just short on power.
I personally have a 1997 Challenger, 14ft., that I wouldn't sell for $10k. O.K., lets be real. I might think about it.
I've put a lot of time in the boat to get it back up to par, and now, it's a diamond in the water. It's still in mint condition, the previous owner did a great job on the outside, kept it in the garage, but seemed to lack know-how on the maintenance. I got it for a steal and love it.
I have a thread in the boat section that shows "a look inside the 787" that gives a lot of breakdown info on this motor. If you decide on the older boat, I believe you'll be happy with the performance, tubing etc...but make sure you do a compression test on the engines before you buy. With age, comes work that you may not see from the start. You'll not notice till your really into it for a ride, that something may be a miss.
So, most important is the compression. Anything between 130 and 150 psi and most importantly, no more than 5 to 7 pounds between the cylinders of the engine your testing.
The 4-TEC is a great engine too. But for the price, I'd be a little hesitant on it. Because these motors are such high performance engines, you don't know how it was treated or what may be a hidden factor in it's purchase. Unless it comes with a warranty, I'd be skeptical of the electronics. The Engine Management System in these electronically controlled engines can be a living nightmare. They are dependent on about 14 different sensors, depending on the type 1503 it is, for keeping the engine operating properly. The difference here between the 787 and the 1503 is electronics. The 787 only has a high temp sensor and that's basically it, outside of the DESS system.
Good luck, happy hunting but the choice is ultimately yours to make. Just make sure you really look at it, I mean really look at it. Don't let your excitement get you stuck with a deal you'll regret later.........
