Tilex Mold & Mildew Remover. Works great!

You just can't believe how much oil can be "made" by running in high humidity at low rpm's without a thermostat, or with a thermostat that's failed in the open position. And, with the additives present in many high quality motor oils, the water doesn't slosh around waiting to be vaporized to the...

We'll be anchored at Hospital Point, or tucked into one of the Portsmouth free docks. Give us a call on Channel 16 when you are a little bit north, and we'll get underway and join in for what should be a great time doing the Dismal. Anyone know which opening of the north lock we're going to make?

Alma's Only will bring some cut fruit.

Lou: Good work! Looking forward to the trip.

Left VA in lovely minus three degrees, trailered to the intersection of the ICW and St Johns. Launched there yesterday, then overnighted at Metro Park Marina. Headed south on the St Johns, presently anchored in Black Creek at n 30 4.988 w 81 46.835. Lovely weather and water.

Alma's Only will be on the St. John's for most of the week before the gathering. Always available to raft up for a break or provide assistance, and anyone wishing my specific location can hail on channel 72 (or whatever other channel is agreed to). For a longer range connection, just send a DSC...

Just signed up. We've done the St. Johns once before, but are looking forward to doing so again, with the group. Launched at Savannah before, and will probably do that again, as the cruise from there to Jacksonville is wonderful.

Neal: You're I our prayers, too. David & Dayan

Whether you leave the motor up or down, be aware that at least on the Honda 90, tilting the motor up before cooling water has had a chance to drain out of the head area will result in pockets of water being trapped inside the manifolds, where it will remain until it eventually evaporates, or...

Gee, almost feel guilty for having a smooth ride home. But, since we just had to go from the slip to the ramp, that's understandable. As I watched the white lights of the other four cruising partners disappear into the early morning, it was with fond memories of a great time, and thoughts of...

Alma's Only, with Dayna and David, will launch Friday, and overnight at anchor in a creek off the south shore of the James. Will furnish lat/long by cell phone, once we're in place. We'll monitor 13, 16 and 68, and plan on meeting the group at the mouth of the Chickahominy on Saturday, heading...

Thanks, Steve. See you there.

Steve: Just spoke with Rivers Rest to confirm slip rates ($2/ft), and the fellow with whom I spoke said that they had our reservations for last weekend. Think they're off by a month. I told him the plans are for the nights of JULY 12 and 13, but you might want to followup to be sure they're...

Steve: As a belated reply to your June 6 request for suggestions for a place to raft up, you might want to consider Morris Creek, which is the first creek on the port side after the Rt 5 bridge at the entrance to the Chickahominy. If you know how to get in, which I do, you can enter even at low...

Alma's Only and crew are looking forward to joining the group. We have some tight scheduling on the front end, so rather than joining up at Smithfield, we're planning on launching at Jordan Point on Friday, and spending that night at anchor off the James. We'll meet up with everyone else...

Steve: I plan on launching at about 9 Wednesday morning, and showing up at your dock shortly thereafter. Once the tow rig is taken care of, I'll head down to hospital point, and anchor there. Does that work for you? If not, I'll change things around. Still looking forward to joining you for...

Steve: Will look forward to joining Joan and you for dinner on the 15th. What should I bring? Still plan on launching on the 14th, and hanging out around Hospital Point to watch the world go by. As I indicated earlier, Dayna will be out of town. David Paxton

Steve: Please put me down for your generous launch/park service. I'll probably launch a couple of days early and anchor somewhere, and will check with you on that later. Thanks again. David

Yes, I'm doing breakfast.
