At 4 min 30 sec see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KN3dXbs3UTU Bob Jarrard PS: As long as we have a recovery vehicle close by and just about any 4x4 will do if they have good tires.

Oh boy, a new "Re-Power" post thread! I am getting my opinions all in shape. A preview is "Be a Bear, Be a Grizzly!" and go for the Suzuki 140HP with a 25HP kicker. As Alfred says "Why Not, What Me Worry?!". Bob Jarrard

All other methods of getting unstuck are out the window. Yankum Rope Matt's Off Road Recovery Rope ASR Ropes Bubba Ropes Plus good attachment points on both ends, 2-4 soft shackles, 1"/7/8" recovery rope at 30' and the rich can buy two, pintle hitch or better yet, a 2" receiver snatch point all...

Lot's of folks beach launch/camp at Sandy Beach at the end of Lone Rock Road which faces, you get it, Lone Rock which is West of Wahweap. I have small boat launched there but you need a 4x4 and a tongue extension would be a good idea, not sure about a C-22 but that is what adventure is all...

Route, Up the 93 is likely shortest, we go to California on the other side of the River on the 95. The 93 and the 95 join here in Boulder City and become the first segment of the newest interstate, I 11 which crosses the River just below the Dam on the Tillotson Bridge, then swings wide around...

Hi, You can go part way up river towards the dam form Willow Beach, a boat permit for both Mead and Havasu is just one permit. See at: https://www.nps.gov/lake/planyourvisit/boating.htm You also need an AIS mussel tag, best to call on that one, I get mine online Two Mohave River Trail maps...

I pinged this listing for a "Still Available" reply. Not everyone is as smart as we veteran C-BRATS who know better than the brokers, sellers, and Nada as to what a boat is worth. The truth for me is that all the boats that have appeal and price are on the other side of the country or in...

Powell is so low, many folks are not going there, for launch info try (https://www.lakepowell.com/houseboating ... gle_places). Be careful, we are in uncharted territory at Powell at these water levels and lots of former fav coves are gone for now and new obstacles are showing up every day. Bob

Hi, The Park Service has had to close lots of ramps but the Hemenway ramp is open, Boulder is closed - shoaled up at the exit. They are using pipe ramps as the concrete is long gone from the water. If you want a last minute report, I suggest you call Las Vegas Boat Harbor...

#1 have the trailer bunks modified for a sling lift #2 Find a sling lift/launch facility #3 Repeat as needed in both directions - In and Out (one of Jim's and his daughter's favorites - speaking of burgers) I know: -- Some folks have no lift/sling available -- At $25-50 each way a Frequent...

Nice boat for sure but the Outer Banks 20 with a 25hp single is a great boat in so many ways. One link to the OB20 is at: https://bandbyachtdesigns.com/ob-20 Or at: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/54746951697921563/ Bob Jarrard

I like the newer outboards in the 20-25hp range with battery less EFI and the lighter weights. Also, two cylinders will shake less than one and having a real shift lever with the possibility of remote steering and/or electric trim/tilt is worthy of thought. You can get a good bracket now that...

I know this has been yakked on before but a bracket has a lot going for it and having a full transom is my taste. Personally as I am spending mythical dollars on my pretend boat, I would go for the largest combo of single main plus 20-25hp kicker plus a Honda generator that stays in the right...

Kirk, send me your number for the boat where she is all cash this week, I will give you a response. I have been to Catalina behind the Ferry in a small Boston Whaler more than once. We used to race 14' Lasers over every year. I have friends who ski over all the time. I rowed a surf dory over a...

Kirk, Why not give it a try here on the Forum? For us as an example, we do not pay sales tax on a used boat and trailer here in Nevada. Builders are great but they have to make a buck in and out. Friday Harbor is not much of a drive/ferry ride and lot of folks might like the chance to visit...

Tyboo, Gracious response. Bob

I always have to edit, I just focus on the first 30 minutes. For me it is bad typing, bad thinking, poor composition, inability to proof read, and old age in general, especially difficulty reading small type. I cannot open and read the site on my cell phone but a laptop is never far away. Thanks...

That is a tough one. You will get a buyer at a fair price. Advertise big in a state like Nevada that does not charge sales tax on private sales of boats and trailers. Will you tiny home be for sale as you mention? List it as a upgrade to the boat!!!!! Lord bless all this and the work that is in...

Not sure if I am the effete coddled conservative you mention (or is that Sandy?) but as I grew up rural and have no fear of stepping in manure, I can move to Seattle if I wish. I also spent 50+ years working my rear end off so that I can afford to live where I please and I don't ask for help...

We live within a rock throw of Las Vegas but in a controlled growth community that is so conservative that even the dogs vote and the cats have a suit/tie. Less than 16,000 residents and only one grocery store. The only town in Nevada that does not allow gambling. Police with a deserved...
