Search the Seabee website!
This is a tip from member Bruce Hinds.
Type this in your web browser:
"___________ site: www.republicseabee.com"
Fill in the blank with, "Brakes, landing gear, hydraulics, etc." and a space between your word and 'site'.
For example:
hydraulics site: www.republicseabee.com
Hint: type in the "blank" word in your browser then copy and paste the Seabee site above. Your browser will then list most of the articles on those subjects from the Seabee website. Note: You will also get links from other websites but the first listings will be from here.

(I'll try to get a search bar going as soon as I figure it out)
=========================================
International customers please note:
Due to the rising cost of shipping, we can no longer honor the "free shipping" on internatonal orders from the Seabee Store. We can still ship your items but we must add a realistic shipping charge. It pains us to do this but we have to cover our costs. Shipping inside the U.S. will still be honored as "Free Shipping". We can make arrangements for international shipping costs. Thank you all for your understanding.
(As an example, shipping to British Columbia, Canada for a Seabee T-shirt costs $29.56!)

 An answer to the boat (ship) with a Seabee on it!
Mr. Montgomery's great great aunt used to own it!
He says:

"Hello,

I noticed a question on the Seabee website asking about this photograph. The yacht was named Brezzin Thru and belonged to my great great aunt, Leila Post Montgomery. The vessel was originally constructed as a U.S. Navy patrol boat and later converted to a pleasure yacht. It foundered in a hurricane in 1950. The wreck is located in Kingston Harbor, Jamaica.

 Best regards,
Larry Montgomery" Overhaul your Electrol 430 Hydraulic PowerPac
