    Hello, seeking advice on boat mooring in PNW....

    I found Twin Bridges to be expensive at $350 for my 16 footer. If Friday Harbor becomes a serious contender, I just left a 30 ft moorage I was paying $200 a month. He wanted $325, but he was willing to take my offer as he had empty slips. You can get electricity, but you need to have the power...

    Cheap cabin heat...Mr. Heater propane?

    A friend had installed a Mr Heater (Buddy) in his sailboat last year and told me she was happy with it. She had an external tank. About 6 weeks ago her son went to light it and an explosion occured. Not sure what caused it, but heard second hand it might have had to do with the gas line. Guess...

    Nordic Tug furloughs workforce

    Matt, I think you are pretty much correct in your thinking. Used C-dory's don't stay on the market for long. I would just as soon purchase used and repower if necessary. When I see another C-dory I have no idea what year it is and could care less. The auto industry makes major changes every...

    "Boating is expensive!"

    I don't see the problem. You got by getting something for your boat for under $100! I just paid $96 to have mine lifted out of the water and put back in.

    Trailer Tires

    Discount Tires would not replace my mounted winter tires with my mounted steet tires because they were seven years old. Some new law. Strictly age, nothing to do with tread left. Don't know how this pertains to trailers. Todd

    Honda 40 Cooling

    Last Fiday while crabbing I noticed my stream that started out strong kept getting weaker until it quit. I used a paperclip and stuck it in the pee hole. I then pulled the hose from the block and blew it out. I didn't notice any kind of residue while doing this. After putting it back together I...

    Off Topic - motorhome or travel trailer?

    I view the motorhome as a I/O equipped boat. More down time and expense when it comes to repairs. I've been tempted to start counting how many of these I see parked in yards missing the outdrives. For me, a trailer is like my boat. New engine and I'm good to go. I subscribe to the KISS method...
