Yellowstone Park Road construction - For anyone that may be coming thru the north entrance at Mammoth. Between Mammoth and Norris Junction there is construction work with some bumpy road and it can be muddy. They do have new pavement on much of it. There is maybe 3 miles of hard packed dirt with...

Regarding fuel. The marina fuel dock is $3.39 per gallon. Non ethanol.

Jay, The beautiful 25 was C-Puffin from Oregon. They spent several days at YSL and headed out today for Jackson. We had a great visit with Bernie and Kyra this weekend. They have some obligations back home and are not able to stay for the gathering.

Mary/Jay, We are open to pot luck or if we want to play it safe, the Lake Lodge cafeteria would be the way to go. The weather is pretty iffy this time of year at YSL for outdoor dining. Friday we had an all day wind storm, waves crashing over the back country dock at Wolf Bay with 50 mph...

Frost on the dock today. August 16, 2015.

Hi Mary. We just returned from a gorgeous weekend at YSL, sharing the dock with Jay and Jolee, and catching up on their recent Alaska adventure. We had a good frost on the dock this morning with temps down in the 30s. Regarding Bears and Racoons, I actually don't recall ever seeing a racoon...

Yellowstone Lake Gathering, Saturday August 29th... Jack, Rob, nice to see you will be at YSL. I think you are the only two I have seen commit to Yellowstone on this thread. I believe Jody/Voyager and Jay&Jolee/Hunkydory will be at Yellowstone and we have one more Montana C-Dory that may attend...

Regarding - Yellowstone Lake Gathering, Saturday August 29th. I was hoping to get an updated count to see how many plan on being at Yellowstone Lake for the gathering. By the way, Park attendance is up almost 25% but the marina has been pretty tranquil this year, lots of empty slips... take...

Our boat is slipped at Bridge Bay #B4 from July 1st till the end of the season September 13th, we are there every weekend, Friday evening thru Sunday. If you take a look at this link there is lots of information on the marina, boating on YSL and the YSL C-Brat gathering this summer...

Sunbeam, I just replaced the two tires on my single axle load rite trailer due to dry rot/age. The tires only had an estimated 3000 miles on them but they were probably 10 years old. The wear was on the outside identical to your 3rd tire photo, the one with the most wear. It will be interesting...

We have a Sea Eagle Fast Track 485 and have really enjoyed it as a tandem kayak. It's a bit longer then the 385. We added an extension to our wooded rack to give more support. It works well. Our simple wood rack is light, cheap and easy to remove for winter storage under a tarp. Here are a...

Greetings from Montana. Here is some more Yellowstone Bridge Bay Marina/Lake Information to add to the previous post by others. 1. Inspections and permits - Boats must be inspected by a resource Ranger at the Bridge Bay Marina Ranger Station before they can be launched. Inspections close at...

We really like having the camperback cover the motor well. For ease of entering and exiting it would be nice if it were taller. It's fine with the side panels off but there is more ducking and crawling in and out under the rolled up doorway. Having he ability to zip back the top a couple feet is...

Our kicker was mounted on the port side when we bought our 16. I added cutting board material over the fiberglass to keep further scaring of the gel coat. We have a minijacker on the 22 and I would use a minijacker on a 16 if I was doing it today. Having the motor on the port side was fine, you...

In case you want to connect with another C-Dory owner on Kodiak, there is a Coast member at Air Station Kodiak that has an older 22 C-Dory. He was in a recent episode of Coast Guard Alaska on the Weather Channel. Good luck with your search.
