barrelroll, your Mexican restaurant sounds great, maybe worth the trip. Your experience with the C-Dory is exhilarating, and your guts are impressive. I think you have what it takes to make this "new to you" work. Already sounding like a true SE'er. A side view would confirm the "Angler"...

Reversing the light mount would have put 2 holes aft and 1 at the forward point (It is teardrop shaped) and then it would have about a 10 degree forward rake. I could probably have lived with that. The light post is " adjusted" now. But if I make a change that would be a good way to go. I...

Well, that and my favorite food is fish and chips. I will have to put your place on my list of worlds best. Harvey SleepyC :moon

I didn't think of that. If you are thinking the ScanStrut mount, the hole for the wires would then be in front, and the top shelf on that mount would have to be re drilled as those bolts are not a perfect rectangle. So the way it is now, if you look too close, it looks a little funny anyway...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: That was so cool. Don't you just love the smart machine stuff. Harvey SleepyC :moon A really truly "dangerous grabber.

I recently had my Raymarine electronics updated, including the 15 year old Raydome 2K changed out to the new Quantum 2 Raydome. Seems lioke it should be an easy switch since the mounting bolt pattern is the same for both. Easily done . . . . UNTIL I was having my 2022 Vessel Safety...

Nice work Roger. Took me a minute to turn my laptop up on the side but I got it figured and those look really simple. Thanks for sharing. Harvey SleepyC :moon

I just checked the fuel price at Fred's Marina, Multnomah Channel, near Portland a couple days ago. For regular (with 10% Ethanol included) it was only $7.11 per US gallon, delivered directly from the dock pump conveniently to your boat tank. NO that was not the 7/11 store, that was the fuel...

flagold, man you are making me drool all over my computer. And I just ate supper, now I'm hungry again all over. Hummmmm :roll: :smilep Harvey SleepyC :moon

Patrick, Back to the question of sending info on other marinas. It is getting toward the time of year when many will be out and about. If we had a format to send the info that might make it easier for you and help us send the right stuff. OR, to know what to look for when we are at a new...

When I remounted my ScanStrut after having it powder coated, I used large diameter nylon washers, and nylon bushings to keep from having any metal touch the new powder coat. The washers were sized to shim, and then used BoatLife Caulk to seal around the perimeter and at the bolt holes. I did...

Bob, Good to hear you are home safe and sound. the trip, It is what it is, and you make the best of it. Harvey SleepyC :moon

Great to see they are still taking good care of their customers. Harvey SleepyC :moon

John, Good to hear you are home safe. WOW, 35MPH on the freeway. Maybe you should have been riding in the cat and towing the truck. (Just an idea for next time :idea: Really enjoyed you lesson on the Great Loop alternatives. Makes huge sense to me. Harvey SleepyC :moon

It would be interesting to see any follow-up on this, either from 3 Rivers or NMI. Harvey SleepyC :moon

B U M :shock: P I just talked to Bob today and he has his new 2022 stickers and is ready to do inspections. I am getting mine done Sunday. This is open to anyone in the area, Sequim, Port Townsend, or Port Angeles. If you are interested pleas PM me and I will send you...

Yes, they are pretty neat models and YES they have TWINS. So Cool. Gotta make this trip next year. Thanks for the pix, the notes and for putting it together again. Going for the 10th Anniversary Hontoon Hoot. What a challenge. You all travel safe, stay healthy and see you next year. Harvey...

Colby, Thanks for posting all the pix. Fun to see them, and, with the captions. I did see a C-Dory model on the table. Cool. Harvey SleepyC :moon

Last weekend I rode the mc over to the Mystery Bay State Park and sat in the sun, for a while. There is a privative boat launch there --> track through the hedge onto the beach. A fellow drove in and launched his Montgomery 12 sail boat there. The same as my first sailboat. He had a ton of...

Thanks too, Colby, for sharing the pix. I can feel the warm right on my screen. NO 24 inches of snow here, but we are a long way from the 80's (F). The good news, Spring is on the way, I have 2 yellow flowers blooming in my yard --> a Daffodil and a dandelion. Both are good signs. Harvey...
