Hi BarkerD

cash is all that is needed...

I see your badge is Silver Contributor so you must have found the info. Welcome

I figured it out ..... any source for model-specific manuals ? Thanks

Re: newbie with a Talari
 

The manuals are pretty basic. There are some model flyer in there and if you send you hull id to the site founders, they might be able to send you build info. I think he has up to 1996. His id is at http://www.mariahownersclub.com/foru...habahz250.html

Search the site and you would be surprised what you will find.

He's probably too busy boating. I met him last week. There are now two teal Mariah's in our harbour.

Hey D. Still having fun up there?

Re: newbie with a Talari
 

Glad to see another 96 Talari on the site. Post photos and lessons learned.:worry_to_laugh:

What are the chances of a teal Mariah coming to the aid of another teal Mariah ? should have gone out and bought a lottery ticket !!

J : having fun , Georgian Bay is a beautiful body of water, but I have already lost an anchor ;( ...jammed in so tight into the rocks (@ 15 ft) I couldnt budge it ...replaced with a modified mushroom style ...so far so good . / hope to see you out on the water again sometime soon.

Looks like rain today ...coming down in buckets this morning ....have to do some chores I guess ...ttyl

Re: newbie with a Talari
 

You're not alone on the anchor. :shakehead: My original is about 30' down in the water below the eagles nest... The rope actually broke. It wasn't a very good one anyway. Now I use a 15lb navy style with 6' of heavy chain and a heavy line. I've still had a few occasions where I had to power it free, but I haven't lost it yet... <touch wood>.

I'm coming back to paradise soon. Hope to see you around!

Here's a shot for our members. See if you can spot the kids!

At the base of the big "faller" ...looks pretty familiar.

We were out during the "small craft warning" the other day ... was hoping that staying within 100m of shore would do the trick ...still pretty wild !! (2m waves)

J : paradise awaits ...

Heard there was some very tragic news up there this week. Sombre reminder that things can change up there very quickly...
