A Glance to Lake Como – a Guide to the Many Lakes of Italy

Ferry?s are a fast and convenient way to travel, and even have room for cars. If the thought of travelling by ferry does not match your idyllic view and does not appeal to you there are a vast range of crafts, with slow boats, express boats from a to b as well as tourist boats that will meander the lake and some even have on board restaurants.

Lake Como is set in the country of Italy. Italy is in Europe, it is easily identifiable as a country within Europe and often is referred to by many as the one that looks like a boot. The capital city of Italy is Rome, and has many other cities such as Venice which is famed for its Canals and Bridges and Milan for its glamorous Shopping as well as Pisa for the very famous leaning Tower.

The Weather in Lake Como is extremely pleasing all year round. Compared with other regions in Central Europe, Lake Como is renowned for its beautiful med climate and has tropical and sub-tropical plants all year round.

Don?t expect the winter to be too cold either, as the lake absorbs heat from the sun in winter which provides a warming effect to the shore. The lake has a warming effect due to absorption from the sun.

The lake is surrounded by steep wooded hillsides which are lined with orange terracotta roofs and villas that look almost toy like which leads down to the steep waters of Lake Como.

Without a doubt the best time to go to Lake Como is any time between Late March and October making it just about the start of the season in my opinion. Like a typical holiday destination most hotels and restaurants as well as most leisure facilities close from November until March however if you want to do some great exploring then perhaps it is better to go this time for climbing, walking, hiking and running.

What is the best bait and best time of day to catch bass?


Its been years since I have gone fishing. I have fallen back in love with the sport and I do it for relaxation. I have a retention pond behind my house that is stocked with plenty bluegil, sunfish, catfish, and which i didn’t expect bass. I can catch bluegil all day long. The bass is my issue right now. I spent all day fishing I can see the bass shoreline in the seaweed or in dark holes within the seaweed. What is the best time of day to catch bass and the best bait / lure to use. It wasn’t until 9 pm at night i caught a 16 inch bass with a night crawler in open water. What would be my best bet to catch one of these bass during the day. I have never really been just a bass fisherman but I am thinking I would like to learn. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You have plenty of answers so I will just give you some information that may be helpful to you at some point. First the best bait may vary from lake to lake, day to day and year to year. Each fishing situation will call for a different bait. In your case fishing a pond with weeds, I would go a weightless senko worm type of lure or a Zoom trick worm. You cast it out and retrieve it with numerous twitches and pauses of the rod tip.Watch the lure up close in the water to get a handle on what types of movement to impart to it to make it seem alive. When the fish take the lure, let him have a little slack so he can’t feel any resistance and then reel the slack in and set the hook by a hard upward motion so it will penetrate the mouth. Another bait for pond fishing is the buzz bait. You cast it out and reel it in rapidly so it runs on top of the water. It works best early and late, or when the day is overcast. Generally speaking the best times to fish is the first few hours after daylight and the last couple of hours before dark, but bass will sometimes feed at different times of the day. Just go when you can go. Sooner or later you will hit the bite just right. Good luck!

Super-Inclusive Jamaica Resorts: What May Be Included

Are you searching for a Jamaica resort? In your search, you will find all-inclusive resorts and super-inclusive resorts. Both may sound appealing, but super-inclusive resorts should get the main focus of your attention. Why? Because of what is included.

Before outlining what a stay at a super-inclusive Jamaica resort may include, it is important to discuss variances. Not all resorts are the same. Just because tips are included in the stay at one Jamaica resort, it doesn’t not mean they will be at another. That is why you should thoroughly review all information provided to you, including the fine print, before purchasing a Jamaica travel package.

Rooms and Suites

In terms of accommodations, your decision should be based on availability and your own personal preferences. Regardless of which Jamaica resort you opt for, you should have multiple options. These options may include a resort room, honeymoon suite, or a room with a beach view or garden view.

Those who are on romantic getaways or honeymoons are encouraged to upgrade to suites.

Dining

Most all-inclusive and super-inclusive Jamaica resorts have at least two eateries for you to choose from. Often times, you are provided with a convenience style eatery and an upscale restaurant. Unless otherwise stated, the cost of dining should be included in your price. For some upscale restaurants, you may find a small surcharge. This surcharge, should it exist, will be clearly highlighted for you to see.

What sets most super-inclusive resorts apart from traditional Jamaica all-inclusive resorts is that you receive more than a nice meal. Many upscale resorts not only include the cost of your food and drinks, but your daytime snacks as well!

Entertainment (Will Vary)

Entertainment is typically included with a stay at a super-inclusive resort. You will, however, find some variances and fees. For example, swimming should be included in the cost of your stay. In addition to a pool swimming, this should include beach swimming, if you stay at a beachfront resort. Family resorts often have onsite playgrounds for children. The use of this playground should be included in the cost of your stay.

Where you will find variances is with additional land and water based activities. For example, it is common for beachfront resorts to offer snorkeling, water-skiing, sailing, and kayaking. Although these activities are offered, you may have to pay a small fee, often for rental equipment. This fee, although small, is still at a discounted price and should be clearly outlined.

In terms of land sports, there is golfing. At many super-inclusive resorts, green fees are included in the cost of your stay. Depending on the Jamaica inclusive resort in question, it may be your responsibly to pay for a cart rental or caddie fees.

Tips and Gratuities

At all super-inclusive resorts on the island of Jamaica, you will find that tipping is already figured into your vacation costs. This means that you are not required to tip. In fact, most encourage you not to. This is one way that a super-inclusive resort is different than an all-inclusive Jamaica resort, where tipping may still be encouraged.

Amenities (Will Vary)

All hotels and resorts provide guests with various amenities, but you will be pleased with the amenities provided at super-inclusive resorts. Of course, a television and telephone are provided, but what about a CD player in every room? That is just the beginning. Although you may find some variances, depending on the resort in question, you may find arts and crafts, indoor game rooms, and much more.

Airport Transfers

On the island of Jamaica, all super-inclusive resorts include the cost of airport transfers. For your convenience, it is best to examine the nearest airports before making your air travel arrangements.

In terms of airport transfers, they are included with all super-inclusive Jamaica resorts. With that said, not all all-inclusive resorts offer this convenient service. For that reason, be sure to know the difference between super and all-inclusive.

As you can see, there is a lot that you gain access to with a stay at a super-inclusive resort. On the island of Jamaica, you will find six super-inclusive resorts. These resorts include Breezes at Montego Bay, Breezes at Runaway Bay, the Grand Lido Braco, the Grand Lido Negril, the Hedonism II in Negril, and the Hedonism III, located near Runaway Bay.

How Does A Diesel Engine Work?

You just bought that beautiful used 1987 Vista sundeck trawler and she is everything you wanted in a boat.  The good sundeck, the master stateroom and the big flybridge are just right.  She also has twin Lehman diesel engines and a Onan genset also.  But you’ve been thinking, how do diesel engines function?  These are the first diesels you have owned.

On paper, diesel engines and gas motors are quite alike. Both are internal combustion engines fashioned to change the chemical energy available in fuel into mechanical energy. This mechanized energy pushes pistons up and down inside cylinders. The pistons are connected to a crankshaft, and the rythmic motion of the pistons, known as linear motion, produces the rotary motion required to rotate the prop on your used trawler or motor yacht.

In today’s world, where fuel prices are increasing as a consequence of spiraling demand and diminishing supply, we must select a cost efficient fuel to meet our needs. After the invention of the diesel engine in 1892 by Rudolph Diesel in Augsburg Germany, the diesel engine has proved to be exceedingly efficient and cost effective.  In1894 Rudolph Diesel was almost killed when his engine blew up.  But that explosion established that fuel can be ignited without a spark.

A diesel engine is truly a bio-fuel engine.  Diesel’s first engine ran on peanut oil.  In practice, a diesel engine can function on peanut oil, vegetable oils, synthetic oils, and even hydraulic fluids.  Rudolf Diesel even experimented running earlier diesel engines with gun powder.  But the handling of the fuel posed a significant problem and that fuel source was abandoned.

After oil was found to be a readily obtainable resource, a product we now call diesel fuel was refined to power diesel engines.  Diesel fuel is priced somewhat higher than gasoline but diesel has a greater energy density, i.e. more energy can be withdrawn from diesel as compared with the same amount of gasoline. Therefore, diesel engines provide greater power, making it an obvious choice for large used trawlers and motor yachts. Diesel is heavier and oilier compared with gasoline.  Its flash point is higher than that of gasoline making it very safe to have aboard a boat.

The easiest way to think of how a diesel engine works is by memorizing the phrase “suck, squeeze, bang, and blow”. This refers to a cycle of 4 strokes known as the OTTO cycle.

First of all, air is drawn into the piston chamber (suck). The air is then constricted by the movement of the piston, and fuel is injected as a vapor just before the piston reaches the top of the cylinder (squeeze). This compression raises the temperature of the air; which causes the diesel fuel to combust (bang). Finally, the burned gases are blown out of  the cylinder (blow) and into the exhaust stream.

A diesel engine injection pump is responsible for injecting fuel into the firing cylinders of diesel engines. It is important to remember that, unlike gasoline-powered engines, spark plugs are not used to ignite the fuel. Diesel engines rely completely on the compressing of the fuel in the cylinder to result in combustion. As a result, diesel injection pumps are exceedingly important and are bult rugged to create the compression values of up to 15,000 psi necessary for the engine’s operation.

Naturally aspirated engines pill in air without mechanical help (suck) to begin the combustion cycle.  These diesels produce less power than their turbocharged cousins.  Turbocharging is the mechanical pushing of air into the engine allowing it to produce more power.

Turbocharged diesels mean any diesel engine with a turbocharger. Turbo charging is the norm rather than the exception in larger and faster motor yachts. As with any turbocharged engine, turbo diesels can offer higher power outputs, lower emissions levels, improved efficiency than their naturally aspirated counterparts.

Hi power engines requires stronger and heavier internal components such as the pistons and crankshaft to withstand the constant lumbering from the diesel engine’s operating cycle. Thusly, the design of a diesel engine is built to take hundreds of hours of sustained use under load.  I am told by the Westerbeke representative of one engine, still in use today that has thirty thousand hours on her and she is still operating fine.

Diesels can be damaged as a result of misapplication or misuse – pricipally internal glazing and carbon buildup. This is a common problem in generator sets caused by failure to run the engines not under a load – ideally diesels should run at least about 75% of their maximum rated load and Revolutions Per Minute. Short periods of low load running are permissible providing the diesel engine is brought up to full load, or close to full load on a regular basis.

In another article, we’ll examine the principle problem with diesel engines – the quality of the fuel.

how do you unlock a chrysler 318 marine motor?


ok so i have twin 318 chryslers in my express they ran great 4 years ago and when the boat was pulled they where winterised but now that im ready to get them going they are both stuck tight i can’t budge them i tried deaisel fuel and now im trying atf fuild anyboady know a better way to do this ?
there was a little rust on 2 or 3 of the pulgs in both motors noting that would scare me or make me worry. the last owner ran the boat very light 1800 rmp was flying to him so the motors should be in good shape if i can get pass this problem the boat only has 235 hours on it. that worrys me a bit as well if he never ran it hard i hear thats bad?

Was there rust on the spark plugs? If so try a product called Power Tune, Engine turner or de-carbonize. Spray into plug holes till it runs out and repeat as often as you can. Let it stand for a week. These products are for dissolving carbon, and works well for eating corrosion too. Your best bet to try and turn the motors is to remove the crank pulley and balancer, they make tool that fits on the end of the crank that will allow you to put alot more force to turn the motor. If it don’t break free, they are coming apart. Will explain later if needed, the whole motor might not need to be torn down.
