    Bear Spray

Some people would never go into bear country, some would never sail...

    Bear Spray

    As far as the bells and pepper smell in the scat, we used to tell visitors this for determining the difference between a brown bear and a black bear: If it chases you up a tree and kills you, it is a black bear. If it pushes the tree over and kills you, it is a brown (grizzly) bear. :wink...

    Bear Spray

    I'll try and make this story short. Grew up in Kenai, Alaska. My wife(girlfriend at the time), two friends and myself were backpacking. At the end of the trip there was a long gravel road about 2 miles, strait and long with just a little hill. At the end of that road was the restaurant where...

    Article on Marijuana on boats

    Dutch, you're probably right. It was the long thread that pulled my chute. I'm sure he was only making a flippant remark and maybe I read into it. If so, sorry Bob! I like talking about hot topics as much as the next guy, sometimes I just hear a little more "I know best" comming out and cant...

    Prepping to Buy... Advice?

    I was going to comment on this earlier but started to add everything up and backed out. I started with an outdate Raymarine A65. It worked, but I wasn't happy about it. After about 6 months, I bought a Samsung Tab A 10", Ram Mount, and Navionics. To say navigation improved was an...

    How much boating experience before you bought your C-Dory?

    My wife got tired of me spending my life on Yachtworld. Sometimes you just know if you have salt in your blood, and if so, the search will be endless. At least with a C-dory, if you find it's not your thing, the resell value is amazing! I love my decision to take the leap and hopefully you...

    Winter Cruises

    Harvey, You're not the only one who got to stretch their winter legs! Scallywag spent the day Saturday fishing off Hein Bank. Three just shy at 23", one big old wild and one keeper. It was a little cold and rainy but we'll worth the run. That night Alicia and I spent the night aboard in...
