    New Poo Regulations ??

    If it was ONLY "P" and "Poo" the problem might be manageable.

These things are very measurable in Puget Sound...

    Daily Laugh

    Being Green Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the older woman, that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment. The woman apologized and explained, "We didn't have this green thing back in my earlier days." The young clerk...

    Road Treks vs. Class C

    We have a "newer" 2013 view with that nice Mercedes turbo-diesel and in the last year have driven it from WA around the country to ME and back plus numerous other trips over the cascades and into the rockies. (about 14000 miles) Very much like a CD experience, not too big, not too small...just...

    Repowering - OB Dealer Recommendations in PNW?

    I'm with Roger on this one. We have bought two boats (5 engines) from EQ and had a third one re-powered there. All of them subsequently serviced and maintained by EQ. My favorite story concerns an ECU Module failure in Canada where it would have been cheaper to fly EQ to Canada to fix it and...

    NEXUS PASS

    Roger, Barry, Good to hear from y'all. Agreed. I think after a while they get to "know" you. Let's face it they can pull you over anytime they want. Also, they make subtle changes in the questions etc. so we always kept all the details they could ever hope to know written down at the ready. A...

    NEXUS PASS

    You will if you ever sit for 3 hours in line at the "Peace Arch" :-) Last time I trailered back through there I was home on Whidbey before our non NEXUS friends had cleared customs. I agree, going into Canada it's not much difference but coming back it usually means we can head straight home...

    NEXUS PASS

    Dave, We have used NEXUS for a number of years and although the rules may vary from time to time it goes pretty much like this- (By Boat) Going into Canada, call the magic number (cell #) at least 30 minutes before your first intended port of call (which must be a customs post). They will ask...
