    Article on Marijuana on boats

    If violence is the only measure - I agree 100% back in the nineties a judge in Bayern (Germany)said if all soccer fans smoked weed instead of drinking alcohol there would be no fights at soccer games. While I get this argument I think it is quite a mediocre one and certainly short sighted...

    Article on Marijuana on boats

    I second the prayer wholeheartedly. As to evil or not I read it as more of a flippant remark. Ie we all know they are not good in excess. As to the opioid problem - I think it’s complicated, socioeconomic conditions, availability, what I would call the depression epidemic etc. I think we...

    Article on Marijuana on boats

    Thats a slippery slope. Look I enjoy a beer like anyone else but pounding 6 beers taking a shroom or two and going water skiing while it may be fun is hardly prudent. the problem in my opinion is not one of availability. If you really want something you'll find a way... but rather of culture...

    The merits of a good dealer- SportCraft

    In my opinion very reasonable. There is also for maintenance - if you want to make the treck - Dennis's boat shop in Salem. I trust Dennis and his crew as well as they are one of the cheapest around if your willing to make the treck. Funny thing is Dennis and Sportcraft work together. Dennis...

    The merits of a good dealer- SportCraft

    Hi all, I am not much of a reviewer, I don't care for Yelp or many other such opinion or whining sites. I never leave reviews for any company - its just not me. This is a first for me and is truly only because of the outstanding way Sportcraft has treated me from day 1. A little over a year...

    They ain't cheap anymore...

    It's a beautiful boat indeed. I could not justify the price of it tho in comparison to the ranger 23 or something of the sort. Let's face it while we all love our C-Dorys for current prices or close to it I think there are other options that offer greater amenities. I think either they will...

    Article on Marijuana on boats

    The illicit trade is indeed still alive and well - The reality is its cheaper than buying it at the store and guess what you don't have to go to a shop be seen there maybe by someone you don't want etc. Look I am all for legalization and decriminalization of usage. However I am against the...

    Article on Marijuana on boats

    I am quite annoyed by all the party boaters to be honest. Sure I will have a light beer when at rest and my wife may have a glass of wine but I see at boat launches people unloading their boats with countless "empties" constantly. Here in Portland it seems there is no enforcement at all. My...

    Trailering

    Thanks - the TV is fine for this boat, it is within spect with about 30% to spare which I think is acceptable. I think I will go with weight distribution. EZ trailer is not opposed to them - they just say they must be installed properly. also they give this warning "Several models of weight...

    Trailering

    I have yet to tow the boat with the new rig - it’s a 17 ram 1500 ecodiesel. It supposedly toes 8500 lbs in my config (4wd crew short bed). My Jeep Grand Cherokee did fine but it was over it’s limit - the short wheel base imo was the worst part of it. I will try it without just was thinking a...

    Trailering

    Hi all - this may be a dumb question but I can’t find an answer anywhere and would love to know what you think. I am pondering getting a weight distributing hitch. From what I understand it puts more weight on the trailer axels. The question I have is what happens after I launch my boat ...

    What people say about our boat

    Lol - I have no license plate on my trailer or on the boat. I’ve taken it all over the place since please cling it up in sept - no one seems to care the local river police and coast guard wave at me as I pilot right past them. Too funny
