Thanks for looking out for me, Kushtaka. But Bob sums things up pretty well. I'm just starting to process this, and most all the information has been helpful. I just joined the Tugnuts site, and will post the same question there. It is interesting to me that most people I know who own larger...

Wow, thanks for all the input! Lots to think about. But I'm probably two years away from retirement, so there's plenty of time to mull things over. An additional consideration is that for the time I've had Cheeto, my employer has let me keep it moored at his waterfront home. We have always...

The only boat I have ever owned is our current '87 22 Angler. We have enjoyed a lot of weekends in the south sound, and have gotten it pretty nicely equipped for that function. But still, it involves only a 5 gallon water jug, porta potti, igloo, and coleman stove, in addition to the motors. As...

I've been hoping for more info on this. We've enjoyed staying there several times.

I have used one for several years. It is not maintenance free - I have to get in the water every year and pull all the mussels off, or it gets very heavy. Where I am, I can catch a low tide and do it with waders. Also, I've had the PVC framework come apart a couple of times. I think the constant...

Man, how cool is that!

Has anyone posted this yet? I might have missed it. C-Dory to the rescue! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUerZpcQB8s

OK - I guess I was wrong. It just struck me as not big enough relative to the fish. But I claim no expertise!

I think it might be a Dall's porpoise instead of an orca - but still impressive!

SoundTransit tries to take some of the uncertainty out of mass transit in an unfamiliar locale: http://www.soundtransit.org/ Enter your point of origin and your destination, and get specific info on how many blocks to walk in which direction to catch the best route, where to transfer, etc. I...

I wish that would work! I can't believe there's a seat going begging!

I would be on the road right now, except that I just put my wife on a plane for a cousin's wedding in Charleston, and I've got to do house/dog duty.

I saw a C-Dory with no hardtop - just a windshield - about 8-10 years ago on a storage lot in Langley. I thought I had posted about it, but can't find the post, so I guess I didn't manage. Very strange to see the C-Dory graphics on a boat with no hardtop!

Glad things turned out OK, Roger!

Sounds fun. If I wasn't having to conserve vacation time for a May holiday with my wife, I'd be there!

I remember reading a short story, probably 30 years ago, about the Japanese fishing fleet targeting the last living blue fin tuna. I think there were competing groups in subs tracking the critter with sonar, closing in for the kill. They knew it was the last one, and whoever got it would be set...

Ron - I'm glad Robbi offered to take a look, because I think I need to withdraw my offer. My father has been hospitalized in the Houston area, and the news is not sounding good. I'm on my way down Friday morning.

Wow, what a cute boat! Might be a mistake to send me out to look at it! (not really - still happy with my 22 Angler.) One caveat - please understand I'm not nearly as experienced as some of the members of this site, but I will try to give you good photo documentation and highlight any obvious...

I could probably get by in the next day or two to give it a look-see and take some photos for you. I don't see it currently on Craig's list. Is it still available?

Wow - congrats, Roger!
