It may come down to ease of service. Which dealer is nearest and preferred? I suspect if taken care of, that Honda will not require much in the way of routine maintenance. The big outboards have a terrific reputation. Does the 24 have diesel heat? The I/O will certainly require occasional...

We just made a similar change, but only have about 30 hours on the Skagit Orca in the last month after putting 100 hours on the 22 Cruiser last year. We have confirmed we prefer the deep-V hull. Ours has a VP D4-260, which provides for nice cruising speeds at reasonable efficiency. We are...

We are using a Ford F 250 V-10 to pull Irene, which is 10000 loaded and including the trailer. We have the 2wd, standard cab, automatic with 3.73. It pulls very well, including grades, and stops very well. We selected the gasser as it sits for sometimes a week or more without use. I didn't...

For those that could use the information, there is a new automated weather observation station on Ediz Hook in Port Angeles. It provides nearly real-time winds and visibility, among other things. The phone number is (360) 457-7529.

So we recently relocated to the Olympic Peninsula, and we have switched boats as well. We intend to use our boat for many weekend excursions, as well as one larger annual trip, north along Vancover Island (inside and outside). Previously, we had our 22 Cruiser VERY well screened to defend...

I had similar concerns when we purchased our 22 Cruiser. Our adjustment was quick and for boating in the north, it just makes sense. The cabin protects you from the cold, wind, spray and sun. You can get plenty of air through the doors and windows but we found ourselves buttoning up more than...

We launched our previous 22 cruiser from both Spanish and Little Current last summer. I prefer Little Current as a base of operations for several reasons: 1. Good ramp with plenty of vehicle storage at Spider Bay Marina. Numerous anchoring and dockage options close by if the WX is poor on...

I offer to deliver it for you, free of charge...

I recommend you visit with Buster at Port Angeles Power Sports. I purchased an aluminum 4-blade from them for my previous boat. They will work with you on finding the right size for your needs. They put mine on for me and did an exchange when an adjustment was necessary. The unit I selected...

The boat is sold. Thanks to all. We will continue to participate here and still look forward to meeting those of you nearby. Bucket List has a great new caregiver, who I believe will have a presence here too. Best Wishes

Sale pending as of 11/22. Thank you.

...and hopefully another boat at/for the Seattle Boat Show, where they had a great lineup (including dealers) in 2014.

We have carried our 12' Saturn KaBoat like Hardee does, with good results. We have also pulled it up over the gunwales, just ahead of the outboard, and carried it that way. When returning to the dock, it's easy to pitch it over the side and tow to the slip. You are welcome to experiment with...

We are hopeful this gathering occurs. I think we may be able to assist with some logistics, depending on the date (work status).

We ran Bucket List from John Wayne Marina to Friday Harbor today. Many birds, dolphin, and a whale were seen. Great first run in the NW!

We towed ours from Billings, MT to Missoula, MT. The shrink wrap is holding up and we plan to be in Port Angeles on Wednesday.
