Yep, depending on the destination, you can ferry over from Tsawwassen to Duke point (nanaimo) then trailer up to Comox, Campbell river, or all the way to telegraph cove all in one day. I would recommend the discovery islands area and the broughtons area for sure. It will cost you about 250...

I am a junkie as well. Lots of favorites and they do keep getting better and better! Greg

Thanks Ron, I will map those out. Greg

Congrats Kevin and you will love the space for longer journeys. I hope you guys are having a great summer. Greg

We are making a run north on Tuesday night (late ferry) to Telegraph cove for a week of boating in the Broughtons. If we get too tired going north from Nanaimo, does anyone have any ideas of places to pull over safely and get a couple of hours sleep? Just wondering if others have a favorite...

Enjoy it Cbrats! We will be out of the country roaming Iceland by 4x4 truck/camper and will unfortunately miss you. Greg

We also do not use any special hitch but are familiar with them from our travel trailer days. Greg

We use a 2017 hyundai sante fe 7 passenger model and get low 20s when not towing and low teens when towing our 22 "like" heavy 19 on a sigle axle trailer. I moved our boat backward slighly to rebalance for a lighter hitch weight and it worked well. Happy with our tow vehicle and it is the...

Welcome Jim and Martha and you will love that Venture! This is a great resource and I encourage you to learn and share when you can. A new boat is a great thing, Greg

Great info and I love this stuff... The Sterling Battery to Battery chargers mentioned by Bob are a solid solution and I have installed them in two boats with the second still running strong after 5 years of salty use in an damp location. They are great for mixing chemistries and also...

Excellent, -Harvey (hardee) has signed on to coordinate with the port and setup the potluck! -Pat (Pat Anderson) will do any christenings for the event! -Gary and Colleen (gary f) will do juice and perhaps pastries on the dock Saturday AM! -Keith (Kfoote) has also voluteered to assist as...

Some folks carry the generator on a small platform in the splashwell or swim step in a storage box, usually with a cover on it if not otherwise enclosed. Others leave it in the cockpit or even keep it in the head or cabinet near the door. Based on how you move around the boat and how you use...

It looks like there is plenty of interest and excitement leading up to the 2019 FH event and that is wonderful. I have talked with a few folks and there are some hands going up for specific tasks (christenings, Sat AM coffee/snacks, Class events, etc.) but we could still use a point person (or...

Hi Sculpin, I Just replied to your PM with more details. Greg

If you are a fan of boats but dont like to own and drive a huge vehicle, there is a new option coming to market this month. The Honda Passport is back and is a more compact variant of the Pilot with the same wheelbase and powertrain for up to 5000lbs of towing capacity. Nice to have another 22...

AWD at least is what we use and it has allowed is to use more launch options than if we had only 2wd. Last summer, we used a steep sand ramp at lake roosevelt with our small Cat and it worked fine. Another small boater with 2wd tried it and nearly got stranded with just the empty trailer. Greg

Hello C-Brats! We have been distracted with travel recently, but it appears that folks are thinking about sunshine in May, including dates and conversation about this event. The dates are indeed set with the port for May 17,18,and 19. Moorage should be fresh this year based on dock upgrades...

Drying it out after 3 weeks of sitting at the shop waiting for the first break in maintenance on our new Suzuki 90. Last time I do that. I really feel for you folks who store you boat outside in wet climates. Love my boatshed! Greg
