This Beneteau First 375 has been meticulously maintained by her current owner. With many recent upgrades, Cheeky Amie is ideally set up for fast, comfortable sailing in the Pacific North West. Attention to detail is evident throughout and there’s a list of recent upgrades that includes standing rigging, life lines, keel bolts, hot water tank, furling gear and more. With the possibility of assumable moorage at Thunderbird Marina in West Vancouver, this boat is a must see. The deck layout and hardware upgrades have been carefully thought out and feature self-tailing Lewmar winches, Harken Battcar system on the main, a rigid boom vang, with all lines, including reefing lines for the main and adjustable genoa fairleads, led back to the cockpit. The windlass has foot switches on deck, as well as a wired remote at the helm, making it possible to drop or retrieve anchor without leaving the cockpit. There is a large (41″) leather covered wheel, with a Raymarine chart plotter mounted on the pedestal, as well as radar, wind, apparent wind, depth, AIS, VHF and a stereo with cockpit speakers. The teak decks are in good condition and have been regularly maintained. Cheeky Aime’s owner raves about how well balanced the boat is, thanks to her design and to a versatile sail suite. She comes with a North Sails Dacron main with 2 reef points, a Dacron 140% furling genoa, a 100% jib, and a Bamar Rollgen furling gennaker. This fast and easy to furl gennaker comes with both heavy and light air sheets. Below you’ll find a warm and bright 2 cabin design with 6’ 1” headroom. The aft cabin, like the forward cabin, is equipped with a double bed, a dressing table and hanging locker. The dining room table comfortably seats six, and converts to another double. The galley features a 3 burner propane stove with oven, refrigeration, and pressure hot water. A diesel Planer forced air heating system takes the chill of cool nights. The head includes a shower, and there’s a holding tank with macerator. Interior and exterior lights have been converted to LED. Extras include a 10.5 foot AB inflatable with cover and 9.9 Mercury outboard. Inflated the dinghy fits nicely on the foredeck and there’s a lifting crane for stowing the outboard on the pushpit. There are Sumbrella covers for the wheel pedestal, hand rails, winches and windlass, as well as a custom full boat winter cover. Bottom and zincs were done in May, as well as an out of the water survey. Contact us now for more about this ready-to-go Beneteau or to book an appointment to view.

Unleash the Power of Your Subwoofer! Are you tired of your car's wimpy sound system? Do you want to feel the music in your bones? Then it's time to upgrade to a subwoofer or position your current one right! A subwoofer is a speaker that's specifically designed to handle low-frequency sounds, such as bass. In this article, we'll show you how to position your subwoofer for getting the most out of your bass. Get ready to rock your world! See Our Blog On This: https://www.chrisdoeswhat.com/how-to-unleash-epic-bass-with-subwoofer-trunk-placement/ What is a Subwoofer, and Why Should You Care? A subwoofer is the key to getting that thumping bass that you feel in your chest. It's a speaker that's designed to handle the low-frequency sounds that other speakers can't reproduce. A good sub and proper placement can make a huge difference in the quality of your music, especially if you listen to genres like hip-hop, EDM, rock, or country. But be warned: a subwoofer can be loud enough to make your music more enjoyable! How to Choose the Perfect Subwoofer for Your Ride Choosing the right subwoofer can be overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. The first thing you need to consider is the size. Subwoofers come in different sizes, typically measured in inches. The most common sizes are 8", 10", 12", and 15". The size you choose will depend on the amount of space you have in your car and the level of bass you want. Keep in mind that bigger doesn't always mean better! Another factor to consider is the power handling. This is the amount of power that the subwoofer can handle without getting damaged. It's measured in watts RMS (root mean square) and should match the power output of your amplifier. You also want to look for a subwoofer with a low frequency response, meaning it can handle the lowest frequencies. Lastly, consider the type of enclosure you want, such as a sealed or ported box. The Art of Getting the Most Out of Your Bass Placement is key, to get the most out of your subwoofer. If you have seen our video with the Jeep subwoofer, we have the ports pointed toward the corners of the jeep body. Just like in your home, the closer the subwoofer is to a corner, the more bass reflect you get which equals more bass. In our car we have the subwoofer port in the corner giving us low smooth bass. Once you've installed your subwoofer, it's time to fine-tune your settings to get the most out of your bass. Start by adjusting the gain, which controls the volume of the subwoofer. You want to set it to a level that's loud enough to hear but not so loud that it distorts the sound. With a subwoofer mounted in a trunk this can destroy the speaker because you can't hear it. Next, adjust the low-pass filter, which limits the frequencies that the subwoofer can play. This will prevent it from playing sounds that it can't handle or sound you don't want it to produce.  Let's Get Pumped: Tips for Maximizing Your Sub's Potential Now that you've got your subwoofer set up, it's time to get pumped! Here are some tips for maximizing your sub's potential: - Play around with different genres of music to find the sweet spot for your subwoofer. - Turn up the volume gradually to avoid damaging your ears or your car's sound system. - Experiment with different EQ settings to fine-tune your sound. - Consider adding sound deadening material to your car's interior to reduce road noise and improve sound quality. - Be respectful of your neighbors and don't blast your music too loudly in residential areas. With these tips, you'll be well on your way to unleashing the power of your subwoofer and enjoying trunk-tastic bass like never before!
