You might consider using a flush bag. It’s a bit more time consuming, but the engine is doing the circulation work without additional pressure from the hose. I don’t recall who made mine, but can dig it out if needed

Bob and Marie, Allow Diana and me to also say thanks for the years of friendship, mentoring, and boating with you two wonderful people. It’s been fun and educational! We send our sincere hopes that you get those additional years to boat as much as you please. Kindest Regards, Diana and Steve

Bob, in the Airstream community, the Marathons have a horrible reputation. I suspect a lot of that is due to negligence on the part of the owner. Most people I know are now running Goodyear Endurance, and the dissatisfaction noise has subsided significantly. IIRC, they are rated for higher...

Well done! Great video, excellent ethics/etiquette

After seeing what happened to Lake Powell, courtesy of quagga muscles, I’m thankful that states are inspecting boats as they cross borders.

Joe, while a CDory does have a sharp entry, there is very little dead rise aft of the house. You slow down, or you visit your dentist to get fillings replaced. That said, they’re wonderful boats. If you want to go fast in the chop, look for a Cutwater or a Sea Sport

I agree with Bob regarding gas, but recommend going with the highest horsepower the boat is rated to carry. I have a Gregor 14.5 with a Honda 15. At altitude, or with a load, it’s not enough to plane.

After reading a story about extremists on Whidbey, are they starting their own navy?

Use non ethanol, your boat will thank you for it.

asuaviator, it happened to my boat as well. I did raise the bunks, and I’m pretty sure the damage happened at the ramp when loading in chop. I think it was Jody that suggested pads epoxied to the trailer frame, and believe that would be helpful as well.

If you haven’t already, you might let the seller know that you would be interested at the lower price if he changes his mind.

Hi Pete, I looked at the ad, and the boat looks in fairly decent condition. It will be a slow boat if loaded for cruising, especially if at altitude. The electronics are dated, and might need replacing. The trailer, if not corroded should do the job, but a tandem axle for long distances...

Does anyone have experience with this product? Purportedly will not strip wax. https://www.jamestowndistributors.com/p ... etail/8132 I’m considering it for use on my Northern Lite truck camper.
