    Did you register your dinghy ?

    For the last 30 years I must have been lucky. I've never been asked once about having my dingy registered. I just recently received a cute little notice from the state of Washington that I need to pay excise tax and register our new inflatable.......they have to catch me first . I'll probably...

    New Boat Purchase

    Dave My wife and I purchased a 22' for many of the same reasons as Bill and El. While we do a fair amount of cruising in the south sound, I spend almost every Sunday out in the ocean out of Westport. I love the way the 22' handle the swells and the rough chop that blows up almost every day. I...

    Fishtales caught a 50 pound salmon

    Pictures! We need pictures! A fish like that doesn't come along very often. We were happy with our two kings this last Sunday out at Westport, one at 15lbs and one at 32lbs. I'm afraid I would have to hide these runts in the presents of 50lb monster.

    Wesport Fishing

    Sark, Roger What a team, the fish won't have a chance! Roger, I did take the downriggers off of the whaler and installed them on the C-ya. Last Sunday, the down riggers out performed my diver with a herring in the propwash. When we were looking for the last silver two of us switched over to...

    Sark- It will be nice to see you guys again! I order fresh herring from the Hungry whale in Westport. It is a chevron mini mart. You must call by 6pm the evening before to order bait. The herring have been small 4-5". I would feel better if he held a gun on me while I am being robbed...... I...

    Wesport Fishing

    Hey Guys- The fishing has been great out of Westport! Opening day, 8 fish in the boat by 11am. Last Thursday I had four guys from Montana. I checked the internet at 3am and it said light to moderate bar condition. When we got there the bar was closed and small craft warnings were posted. Oh...

    Furuno Radar

    Dave- I too have a Furno 1715. We have had it for about a year and couldn't be happier! I sped a lot of time in the ocean salmon fishing out of Westport.

    Empty Nest??

    Mike- The girls are have a lot more fun than you! I'm sure they are not worrying about whats going on at home, except for the pets. Cathy used to worry about the " empty nest" thing but it took about 3 days to get over it. ENJOY......they will be back.

    Tired of the Rain

    Pat- Quit your whining! I thought you were the one who said that bad weather was made for c-dorys. Cathy, our daughter and I took a four hour cruise today and it rained, it blew, so what.......well it might have been a little lumpy coming back to Olympia and I might have got a little wet...

    Rude Behavior

    We cruised from Olympia to Gig Harbor and back today. The trip was great until we were coming back into Swantown in Olympia when a go fast cruiser passed a string of us doing about 30mph in the no wake zone, He must have been in a hurry to beat everyone back to the launch. It was really nice...

    Traler Hitch Extention

    mmitchell- I have a 2500 dodge diesel 4x4. We carry a nine foot Summerwind camper. I tried pulling my 22' boston whaler cutty cab with just a stinger extension. Not a good idea! I went to Central welding in Kent Wa. and they installed a Super hitch. What a differance! It is a massive hitch that...

    Tuna - Albacore

    Fac-Dory Guy- If the tasty rockets get as close as they did two years ago at Westport I'll be all over them. For two glorious days they were within 14 miles of the south jetty. If they get within 20 miles I'll start chasing them.

    Radar causing interference with other electronics?

    Dave- I have two antennas, furno radar dome and the GPS receiver all mounted within the width of the boat on the radar arch. I've not had any noise or interference except from the admiral when I do something crazy.
