    HURRICANE IRENE

    After watching local 5:30 AM news this morning we decided to bail out of Ocean View. While our house is not on the water at 11:00 AM Governor made evacuation mandatory as we are within 3/4 mile of water so our early departure decision was a good idea. We left around 7:30 AM, made mandatory...

    I need some input please...

    If there are two finish levels of M215 built that do not look noticeably different there will be potential for complaints in subsequent resales. A 2nd buyer who doesn't get as good a boat will potentially come up with negative comments that could hurt the brand. Initial Ranger tugs with low...

    New company and website announcement

    Retirement -- what's that? At my June annual meeting I extended my contract through 2013 -- my wife thinks that 2015 or 2017 has a nice ring to it. As to place, I am sitting in the living room of our vacation/retirement home in Ocean View, Delaware. We bought it last fall at a bargain price...

    New company and website announcement

    We think the Marinaut 215 has one of the best blends of space usage available on a 12' 6" boat. Les I think you mean 21'6" in the above sentence. Nice site and nicer boat. Bill Uffelman Usually Las Vegas NV

    Seven Day Chesapeake Cruise

    Kept my Ranger 20 sailboat in a slip at the old Granary back in the early 1980s. When I worked for Allied had to deal with public sentiment concerning ships of chrome ore from USSR and South Africa tied up at Fells point -- painted a city scape on the buildings. My wife's father imported...

    Jim -- belated sympathy on your mother's passing. The past week was as chaotic for me as traumatic for you. I feel like I am reading about my 90+ year old mother when I read your blog on the "discoveries" you made. I figure I'll have to have Waste Management bring a roll off box to my mother's...
