The OBBC has standardized on Raymarine suite of Electronics. All boats come equipped with Raymarine's C-80 8.5" color display, 2kW Radome radar, DSM 300, Raystar 125 GPS, transducer, Navionics Gold navigation chart chip, digital VHF radio. All of our boats are rigged the same, which means you only need to learn how to use one system. As a training aid, all of our members receive a set of DVD's that will teach you how to use the Raymarine suite of electronics.

Excess Recycle accepts e-waste at the administrative offices of Connections located at 141 W. San Antonio Street. Materials may be droppped off on the covered porch facing San Antonio Street 24 hours a day. More information about excess recycle is available at www.excessrecycle.com. Our local Goodwill store, located at 1075 S. Walnut Ave., is a participant in Goodwill's Reconnect program. This program accepts used electronics and computeres for free, during normal collection hours.

One particularly strange thing I've noticed on rec.boats is that there is an amazing amount of attention paid to boat names. Perhaps this is because a boat name is one of the few periods where everyone absolutely has to come up with something sounding creative and original. I remember well when my family bought a 13' Boston Whaler together. There were two major factions in the family, it being a coming together of two formerly-fractured halves, and each half wanted their own name or else.

Students are allowed to bring cell phones to camp. However, all cell phones will be left with mentors during the day. No exceptions. Students will have access to their cell phones in the evenings. This policy is for the students safety and is to ensure that there are no distractions or interruptions during class. If an emergency situation arises, parents may contact the resident director at the number provided in the information packet.

First, a confession/disclaimer - the configuration of electronics was of our own design based on boat shows, literature, and some dock talk. We did not sit down with a professional, and in reflection, perhaps we should have. We do have most of it right and the specs are laid out on our Electronics page. Our main complaint is with the Furuno Navnet chartplotter/radar. The radar is fine, but we think the chartplotter is slow and cumbersome.

Many wonderful things. We are actually building a utopian society and sanctuary for electronics from around the globe. Actually, if you must know, we take your broken electronics and swap out parts to fix others, then resell your gadgets. We get hundreds of damaged electronics each month and as we grow and get more we will be able to fix more and more electronics because of our growing stock pile of parts. So send em’ in, in any condition. Don’t forget the used ones too.

No. The shirts simply let people know what keyword to text and to what number. When people text your keyword to 41411, the text message goes to the Reactee servers which then send your response.

Almost everyone will immediately say Fiberglass. It's strong, it's durable and it doesn't have many of the durability problems of the other materials. Basically, unless you're a maintenance maven, it's by far the best choice. What about wood? Wood boats are far cheaper than fiberglass ones, and they might seem like an ideal way to get into cruising.

we state in many places on this site, the answer is no. All the boat reviews that we have are posted, and there are no others hidden away in a file somewhere.

There is a guide in each boat on all of our Colorado whitewater rafting trips except for the Inflatable Kayak Trips on the Colorado River. If you are paddling an Inflatable Kayak, a guide will always accompany the trip in a raft or another Inflatable Kayak. Our rafts hold up to seven people plus the guide on our intermediate and advanced sections, six people on our advanced + sections, ten people on our beginner sections, and five on Gore Canyon.

No! The under carriage treatment will not effect the electronics of your vehicle. It is designed to be a full coverage, low pressure rinse and rust protecting process.

There is a fee for recycling most electronic equipment (cell phones and printer cartridges are free). These funds are used to offset the cost of collection, storage, and marketing of the materials. In most cases, items must be disassembled before they can be recycled, a labor-intensive process that often requires handling toxic substances. Eco-Cycle works only with certified, domestic electronic recyclers.

Recognizing the environmental impacts associated with the manufacture, use, and disposal of electronic product, growing numbers of purchasers were seeking ways to buy more environmentally preferable computer products. Purchasers were beginning to ask for a standard set of environmental attributes they could use to compare products. At the same time, manufacturers were seeking clarity about how to define a "green" computer.

A:You absolutely can recycle your old computer. A few options exist: If your computer can be reused, consider taking it to one of the local organizations that offer computer refurbishment for community purposes. Examples are Goodwill and the Computer Recycling Center, and they will take your computer for free. For more than five systems, contact the CRC directly through their Web site at www.crc.org to request a pick up under "Business Pickups". A fee may apply.

Yes, you can, but at YOUR OWN RISK. Cell phones must be turned off and left in your locker at all times.

The box has an on-board control system which operates an illumination system, a camera and a transmitter, as well as controlling the power consumption to maximise battery life.

A Pacific Northwest electronics manufacturing services company, PTL Electronics partners with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to manufacture, assemble and test their products.

Due to the complexity of today's technology our men cannot be trained in all the different systems that are available today. Because of this we ask that you have all electronics disconnected from other components before we arrive.

Used and obsolete electronics, such as computers, printers, mobile phones, and fax machines, are part of an increasing and complex waste stream that poses challenging environmental management problems for federal facilities. Electronic products contain a variety of hazardous constituents. Cathode ray tubes, circuit boards, batteries, and other electronic components often contain toxic materials such as lead, mercury, and cadmium.

Yes. List your products in our Shop/Check Prices section viewed by millions every month. Registration is required. Try it out here!

When you disassemble electronics such as computers and stereos (items that have numerous cables), place small colored stickers on the cable and the same color sticker where the cable goes.

The electronics are 100% solid state and will give years of trouble-free service. Klima-Gro carries a full one year parts and labor guarantee against defects in manufacture, and should anything ever malfunction, the control panel is modular, removable by four screws, so there is no need to send in the entire greenhouse. Just remove these screws, unplug the component connections, send to manufacturer and it should be back within one week.

Yes and no. Some name brands you will have never heard of simply because they are not sold in North America. some others may be direct from the manufacturer, before a company such as Sony (believe it or not they do not manufacturer all their products themselves) slaps their logos on them. If you know your electronics well, you will definitely recognize some models which are sold in the states minus the logo. Personally I do not suggest going with brand names common in N.

No. This is one of the joys of our program. You don’t have to worry about depreciation, resale, or anything else related to the management of your boat. If you are interested in yacht ownership with WindPath visit our Owner-Member page.
