There is good podcast on Hidden Brain called An Unfinished Lesson dated 3/23/20. Its about the 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic. Worth listening to for historical reference and potential lessons.

Agreed Rogerbum. Another point needs to be made. If the medical system is tied up with the Coronavirus,and it is and will be for the unknown future, there will be reduced or no medical services available for other illnesses and medical problems. If you won't follow the advise of the...

We're all operating under a "new normal". Talking about it should be expected and not discouraged. Let's just keep the "Be Nice" mantra in mind. I, for one, like hearing what other folks are going thru and thinking about our current situation.

Stay home, practice social distancing, flatten the curve, give the meds a fighting chance.

Thanks everyone for your comments and good information. My question was more directed to the design of the hose connected cooling system. Thru another forum I think when you connect the garden nose to the engine fitting, the water flows thru the small rubber hose to a "Y" fitting that is...

Thanks Teufelshunde. I haven't been back to my boat yet so my information is from what the marina said but I do know the fitting that came apart was not exposed.The fitting I'm talking about is downstream from that exterior garden hose fitting you are talking about.

I have the Yamaha 90. I was washing down the engine using the hose connection and heard a pop like a fitting being blown off of a hose. As I was at the marina where I store the boat and I was having the 20 hour service done, I told the shop about what I had heard. After the service they verified...

You can buy ethanol free gas in Everett too. Place on Broadway.

I have an old style crab/shrimp pot puller that has been sitting around for many years and I want to get rid of it. Pictures are in my album. Everything is stainless steel. The base would bolt to the removable floor panel and the mid-bracket would bolt to the inside of the gunwale. It comes...

If you do decide on the BC Ferry be sure to book well in advance as I believe you would be over height and summer is really difficult.

Does anyone know of a company in the Puget Sound area that repairs damaged hulls on thin skin aluminum boats such as Lunds? It will probably require removal and replacement of the transom and some repairs on the bottom of the hull. It will also involve removal and reinstallation of interior...

There is an article in the Anacortes newspaper about all the accidents now occurring at the Sharps Corner traffic circle compared to before the traffic circle was installed. We drove thru it yesterday with that in mind and it seems like having a 2 lane traffic circle causes additional confusion.

Jeff's post is more of a progress report than a conclusion. More to come I'm sure.

Having only heard one side to this sad tale........it doesn't seem unreasonable to expect a certain degree a quality control when purchasing anything costing over $300k and to except that same degree of customer care from the company doing the final delivery. I thought the customer was very...

Very interesting and informative article . Thanks for posting.

We've been thru there ~3-4 times now and it is an improvement, particularly going west to Anacortes and in light traffic but think of this scenario..... Before the traffic circle I remember long lines of traffic queuing back on highway 20 wanting to head south to Whidbey Island. When there is...

What do you use to clean the saltwater from glass? Thanks

Good suggestion Harvey. I'm assuming you would also lower the winch assembly in front also?

The slope of the ramp I use is shallow so the wheels need to go in the water so I can get the depth on the trailer to launch. Gene
