Casey- As I think we have mentioned to you, during visits, some of the best travel experiences we have had drifting around North America by road, have been with folks in Newfoundland. They ere cordial, welcoming, took in family when we had some car trouble, and shared meals, tales, and...

Our condolences -- what fine C-Dory companions you folks have been to this 'pub'. Stay aboard with us here, Joyce. Our thoughts are with you. El and Bill

Scott- As you know, you live in some fine cruising country. We sure have enjoyed chugging along Maine and the northeast in general. The front opening window is great for circulation and keeping out condensation. We had a Wallas heater -- it was great for cooking and heating. We had a small...

A great Holiday season to all in the pub! And a memorable New Year.

A great cruise awaits you. As others have said, take your time. Leave at a marina on the hard for winter, if it gets cold, and come back the following year to finish the cruise of a lifetime. Bon voyage. El and Bill

Have a great Turkey Day.

If on the route east in the fall you plan to come anywhere near Denver, drop an email and let us know. We would love to visit and share your photos and adventure from your trip north, and we have a spare bedroom for you. Might want to hang out in Colorado for a few days (or just an evening if...

Joel -- Thanks for your comments-- glad you are enjoying the book. Meeting folks like you is the real joy of cruising -- the scenery and nature are wonderful, but sharing that with good friends is the real pleasure in life for us -- and our cruising together with you and other great...

Great trip. So glad it worked out well for you, and how encouraging it is for the others to consider what you just enjoyed. Best to you. El and Bill

Pat and Patty-- Just got an email from Amazon.com. Are you sitting down? We are #10 on Amazon's best seller book list! Well, drilling down, we are #10 on their eKindle booklist for Travel US. Thanks for buying that book -- that probably was #25 and now our royalty might buy...

Thanks for the posts -- this site has been a great pub to share with good friends

This is our favorite 'pub'. We have sure enjoyed the years of visiting with such good and knowleable friends. Thanks guys for managing the site and for all who have made this such a fine place to visit and share.

We have just completed condensing our website into an Ebook -- available from Amazon.com. We think it is a good book for those considering a boat, or who have just bought a boat. Also should be of interest for those considering cruising longer distances. The price is right --$2.99 Product...

Tomorrow we fly to Edmonton. Then the next day to Kugluktuk on the Arctic Ocean. We board an ice-hardened commercial ship to cruise for three weeks through the Canadian arctic Islands to Greenland's west coast, then in and out of fjiords along the coast, and then late in the month fly back to...

Wow - thanks George - that will sure make our old scout compass a marvelous entertainment. Your GPS was a joy, and got you through the arctic.

"Be prepared -- that's the Boy Scouts marching song." If an electronic system (or systems) can fail, someday they will. We will be cruising north of the magnetic pole in a few weeks, so my old scout compass might have a problem.:-)

Your shallower draft with the new boat will open up many fine places not available to others. There are so many coves and small harbors in the sound -- anchoring in those when the winds are right, will be a delight. When the conditions are fine, circumnavigating Long Island can be a delight...
