Also consider that all "marine gas" is ethanol laced. Other than Aviation fuel, there seems to be no "non ethanol" gas available in Calif.

Sounds like a good time for Startron, RingFree and Stabil on the last fill.

I just saw a note somewhere that E-15 is going to start showing up in some places. Sure hate to see that.

Might be getting time to revert to sailboat gas. Shocked Confused Wink

Heads up for Guided Fishing on Thursday at the Duck Club

Because of the heavy winter we had the Stripped Bass fishing right now is considered winter fishing conditions with cold water and sleepy fish. Because of this the guide is kind of recommending that we do Sturgeon fishing. The Guide will be set up for either Sturgeon or Stripped Bass, but not both.

But to do Sturgeon you must have your California Sturgeon Fishing Tags in your possession. This is required to even get on the Guide's boat if he is fishing for Sturgeon.

For all those who plan to go fishing with the Guide I recommend that you get your Surgeon Fishing Tags now. The extra cost is about $8.64, but well worth it if we do the Sturgeon fishing.

For those that do not want to do the Sturgeon fishing, John says the Stripped Bass fishing at his dock by the pump should still be pretty good for smaller size Stripped Bass.

I have my Sturgeon Tags and am ready to go!

Don't know if anyone has put together a spread sheet with contact info for this event. If you have, please PM me. If not, I have a list in WORD that I can share when we get together, provided there is someplace that has a copy machine.

Looking forward to this. Thanks to all for your effort and participation already.

Jim,

Alex and I will most likely be the crew of Dora Jean this trip. We discussed and decided that we'd prefer to go after those elusive stripers once again this year. So we won't be doing the sturgeon trip, although it sounds like a real educational opportunity.

Hello Fellow Voyagers,
There is an option to have dinner and cocktails at the South Beach Yacht Club Saturday evening. Jim (head Honcho guy) and I have agreed that in the past it has been a nice way to end our last evening in SF. They have been very accommodating in both hospitality and providing seperate bills. We were thinking about meeting at the club house for adult beverage of choice at 1800hr and Dinner at 1900 (6pm/7pm for you landlubbers). Laughing As most of you seasoned Extravaganza veterans know the lines are typically cast off bright and early the following Sunday morning so far flung fashionably late dinner can be problematic! Let us know if you would like to join us. I am tentatively telling the staff at SBYC to prepare for 17-20 people. I will adjust as interest in this dinner dictates. Try to us me know if you and your crew will be joining us. Look forward to our cruise and hangin out a bit! CoolSmile

I launched at Delta Marina yesterday. Really beautiful place and nice people. They weren't quite ready for the C-Dory group yet, got a bit exciteduntil I explained I was there a week early. The parking up on the hill was the issue. Shouls all be ready when you get there.

I met a past C-Dory owner who showed up as soon as I parked to get ready for the launch (ahead of the usual "isn't that a cute boat crowd") and we had a good visit. He joined me for a ride later, and gave me a guided tour to the Market for bananas. He got something else. His name is Steve, and he said Jim would know who he was by his dogs name (Sidney the terrior). Steve said he really enjoyed his ride with the Delta Cruise and he was glad I was doing it. Me too, even if it is hot here.

Got a few miles in today, under 3 Mile Bridge, and around Franks Tract. Met the only AIS target of the day, a 65ft tug with a oair of barges, side tied, and pretty much filled the channel. He advised me, use VHF 13 is best, or the bridge channel, 9, although he did answer up on 14, VTS channel.

I also saw a ferry here. Very different than the WA State ferries back home.

Fun and different so far. Glad I'm doing this. Tonight I am anchored in Sand Mound Slough. I have seen a bunch of "bass or flats" boats. Little flat things not much thicker than a pancake with BIG outboards on them. Looks like most of them are doing 40mph plus, with 2 people on board, hunkered down, trying to keep from getting blown out of the boat. They keep doing it so it must be some kind of fun for them.

If they're only going 40, they must be having some sort of engine trouble.

Kath and I will be launching our C-Dory at Rio Vista about 10:00 AM on this Wednesday (May 1st). We will then leave the dock about Noon and head to Wheeler Island, about 2 hours down river. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Please have full tanks of fuel when you leave Rio Vista as that will hopefully carry you to San Francisco and back to Rio Vista.

Jim & Kath
