    Friday Harbor Fuel cost me over $700

    Wow thanks for the great insight. I will look into all of that. The problem I have is the amount of rust that was in the fuel when I have plastic tanks. However I will check out the vent issue. Also I have a problem understanding if it is a vent problem why it was only one side and not the other...

    Friday Harbor Fuel cost me over $700

    Well the bill came to $1026. I think I was the unfortunate one at FH that fateful Sat morning. FH fuel will deny it however all was fine with my fuel before I filled up there. I realize they go through a lot but I was the first to fill up Sat morning and who knows what may have happened with a...

    It isn't US. Canadian registration was a 1k or 13k or 14k number before they went to letters from the Province. My old boat registered in 2003 when I brought it into Canada in 2003 was given a 14k number. My new C dory was given a BC number.

    Friday Harbor Fuel cost me over $700

    Last Saturday I was in Friday Harbor and got fuel before heading home. After getting home and going fishing my starboard engine sputtered and died. I figured it was a fuel problem. I changed the racor filters and still the engine was only running on 2 cylinders. I took the boat to the Marine...

    Another interesting note is the 1K number. I believe that is an east coast number and older than 7 years. The numbers here in BC use to be 14k numbers. They now have registration numbers that begin with BC not a K number

    Busted

    Probably a routine check. I was pulled over and lashed to the patrol boat in the first week I got my boat on the water. I too was near the breakwater. I was over near the mouth of Esquimalt Harbor. They came up to me and then did a check on all the safety equipment and my pleasure craft...

    Bottom Paint Advice Needed

    I suggest you power wash the bottom. Then use a 90 or 100 grit wet/dry sand paper and sand the bottom using water and smooth out the areas that may have chipped away. Be very careful not to sand to hard or intensive in one area because you could sand through any barrier coat or if not...

    New name and Logo complete

    Well here the Canadian Gov gives you a number and says where to show it and the minimum size it must be, but makes no requirement where or how you get it on the boat. So I just waited and got it put on at the same time I put the name on. BTW it is the same color as the name in Seahawks blue.

    New name and Logo complete

    Well I didn't want to go to the graphic artist to put the name on until I could also put on the BC reg number at same time. Took them close to 3 weeks to get the number to me. Cant do in Victoria any more. Had to send docs to Nova Scotia and wait for a mail return to know the number.
