John, or anyone with experience with the hose cap for the Honda generators. How would i get the fuel from the tank under the floor to the generator? It would seem to me that it would require a fuel pump to push the fuel up to the cap. I have the eu2000i generator on a platform similar to the...

Waypoint, Is that 30amp socket putting lout 30 amps with the 2200 companion or is there another eu2200I in line? Also, do the engines tilt all the way out of the water with this arrangement? Nice work, looks professional.

Colby there are lots of choices, here are a few that you can pick and choose from. Start at Port Orchard marina, with foot ferry to Bremerton, then to Paulsbo, Kingston, Edmonds, Bell Harbor on Seattle waterfront, then Blake island, Gig Harbor, Anderson Is or Johnsons point or Boston Harbor...

SSBOL, you're correct. It is my understanding that if the belt breaks while running that the cam shaft stops turning but the crankshaft will continue to turn. As a result timing is thrown off and as a result valves and push rods get bent by the piston pushing up into the valve and any number...

Looking on Utube for the answer as to whether the BF90 has a belt or chain. The best i could find is that the change over between belt to chain was somewhere around 2006 when they reconfigured the entire engine. One video I saw was for a 2005 BF 90 timing belt change out. so they still had a...

If this were my project I would be more inclined to cut out a rectangular area to 1, be able to assess the entire problem as to weather you have rot and how extensive it is and 2, it will give you good access to dry it out and replace any balsa if required. I'm not a fan of drilling holes and...

JamesTXSD Another option is that the Swinomish Casino and Lodge now has a new Rv Park at the top of the Swinomish Channel on Padilla Bay. Look nice from what you can see driving by. There is also a boat launch on the other side of the Bridge crossing Swinomish Channel. It's located under the...

We've all been there, searching for the right C-dory to fit our wants and needs. Searching near and far and using various search mechanisms. I always considered the hunt part of the package, when you go hunting you don't always bag what you went after but had fun doing it. Something that has...

Thanks Gary, good info for planning a transit thru the rapids. So basically, add a 1/2 hour to the tide chart at Pt Atkinson to get the slack current at Malibu. It appears that the chart is in Pacific Standard Time and I suspect that we will be on Day Light Savings Time by them so spring ahead...

I've been following the conversation on the after cruise (cruises) that folks have mentioned, Chatterbox Falls, Inside Passage going north and am interested in making some sort of trip. Gary, you posted info on the tide chart at Malibu rapids. Just wondering if there is a current chart for the...

Salmon Fisher, you mentioned launching at Coronet Bay, I was wondering if you had to have a special state parks pass to use this facility. I've stayed there several times by boat using my state parks boating pass but I'm uncertain in you have to have a Discover Pass to use the facility if...

We had a pretty good blow up on Vancouver Island over the Christmas holiday. A few ferry runs were cancelled from Nanaimo to Vancouver but we managed to get on a later boat when they started running again. Made for a long day coming home to Port Orchard. I don't believe I would have been...

Bob I can relate to how this may have happened on I-10. I towed a 21' Atlas Pompano from Ram Rod Key Florida to Washington state. I had arranged to Tom at Atlas Boat Works to purchase a tandem axle trailer and have fitted to accept the 21' and he arranged that for me. We loaded the empty (no...

Welcome to the C-Brats, It's a good idea to plan ahead and book ahead to land a place near to the marina. Here is a web address you can copy and put into your browser https://www.airbnb.com/friday-harbor-wa/stays I saw a couple condo's located right down town Friday harbor close to the...

I've not seen it done on any boats but many 5th wheels and travel trailers have steps that fold up and out of the way. It may take a little engineering to adapt something like that for a boat but I'm guessing it could be possible. Good luck with that.

DayBreak, Our two states have different taxation schedules. Your state of Oregon has a state income tax which seems to cover all the expenses of your states budget, whereas Washington state does not have a state income tax, we have sales tax which depending on the county you live in varies by a...

As the adage goes, Fish or Cut Bait, Well Donald, it sounds like its time to quite cutting bait and start fishing. To help with some of your questions... Go to your credit union or bank and get pre-approved for a loan for whatever you intend to buy. Be aware that you'll need probably 20% of...

Colby, yes i was talking about vehicle insurance while in Mexico. But you bring up some important points for those of us who rely on Medicare insurance for most of our medical needs. I am fortunate to have Medicare as well as GEHA insurance. It is my understanding that my GEHA plan covers...
