Hey Steve. That was such an amazing trip, met so many nice folks. And got to see orcas from the boat, which was a bucket list item for sure. We’ll be at it again someday, but we are trying to sell everything and live out of a van for a couple of years and spend time with aging family while...

Also, even talking about this makes me sad. Ugh.

Double battery system. Swim step. Some dri-dek in the back. No fishing stuff, no radar. Pretty much as we bought it fresh from the factory. It has a lien that we could pay off or figure out with sale. The dealer we bought it from says they can consign it and move it quick. I spit out the number...

Also has a full cover.

Hey folks. It’s breaking my heart but we are gonna have to sell our 2017 22 Cruiser. Probably in early fall but maybe sooner if an offer appears. Trying to figure out what to ask for it, maybe you kids can help. Pretty standard new 22. Has a Wallas, VHF, right at 200 hours on a Honda 90...

Hey folks. Trying to fight the battle of PNW foggy windows and was thinking of installing 2 fans to blow on the windows. I know absolutely nothing about electrical really, how hard is it to wire these? Is there any write-up somewhere with a dummy style guide? Thanks in advance. And if you...

Had a great day cruising today. Did like 50-ish miles down the Columbia from Portland to St Helens and then slow ride up the Multnomah Channel. Tons of birds and even a coyote. Sandwiches, chips, and hot tea. Just thought I’d share a great day out. Now if only the Wallas would have run for...

Do you have a link to the ladder you installed? And did you have to add some bungee points to secure your gear?

If you want to spend some really pleasant time online, watch the series “Great Canal Journeys”. A BBC thing and you can find many of them on YouTube. I can’t get enough.

Oooh, hopefully we can make this one. Was sad that we were gonna miss Friday Harbor this year, but fingers crossed we’ll be able to pull this off much easier.

Ugh. I dove off this boat 3 years ago. Super nice crew. All the local Portland dive shops charter with them. So tragic.

Anybody have their top pick for a small fan or two to help with fogging windows? Also, best placement on a C22?

Just wanted to say thanks to everybody for the advice and just being so nice and welcoming to Emiko and I. We had an amazing first trip to the San Juans and you folks made it even better. Extra warm hugs to Mike, Robin, Fred, and Harvey. Hope to run into you all sooner rather than later.

Thanks for all the feedback. Heading out tomorrow, actually gonna launch from Skyline instead. Wish us luck on our first big trip. Hopefully we’ll run into you kids out in the water or in Friday Harbor. xoxo chad

Thanks. I called and Washington Park is open. We have friends who live about a 10 minute walk from there and we can keep our truck/trailer there for free.
