Thanks for the heads-up. We'll check with the Minnesota DNR for clarification on out-of-state boats launching from Minnesota facilities. Meri Aura

We're looking forward to another season on Lake Superior and hope many of you will join us in exploring this greatest of the Great Lakes. Early June to September are the traditional cruising dates for the Big Lake. At this writing the lake temperature is around 34 degrees and we're expecting...

We are former sailors (65 years) who joined the C-Dory family a few years back and also live on Lake Superior. Our 22 has served us well having taken us to Isle Royale three times along with cruises on Keweenaw Bay, Huron Bay, Apostle Islands and around the Keweenaw Peninsula. Last year we...

The Hontoon Island docks won't be the same at the March gathering. Judy's subtle humor and rich laughter added so much to our time together. Our thoughts and happy memories of a great gal are with you. Hank and Pat Meri Aura

We "invested" in two Lafuma flolding recliners and have been very pleased. Being of an age where naps are a part of our day when boating, we've found them ideally suited for us. When towing we store them on the forward bunk. While cruising they bungee nicely in the cockpit. At anchor or...

The crew of Meri Aura will be camping in Cabin 5 and will not need dock space. Start saving "stuff" for the silent auction......more details later. Hank and Pat

Meri Aura has this one on the calendar and will probably launch at the city dock in Ashland, WI. No ice on Lake Superior right now unlike last year's bergs in June. Hank Clow

All the memories of Blue Days happenings came flooding back with your anniversary announcement. Bill, you could write a book on fish caught around the US. Wait until you land your first BIG fish out of the Pacific. Becky, we'll expect a book on "projects" completed while being a First Mate...

I purchased some spare washers (metal gaskets) to use when changing the oil on my 2003 BF 90 Suzuki engine and they don't fit. I bought them from a Suzuki dealer. I have since checked with two other dealers and they came up with the same part number after checking the serial number. The plug...

Meri Aura and her crew will be there. Hank and Pat Clow

OK, all you computer nerds, I need help. What is the best way to access the internet while cruising? I've heard of portable hotspots and other gadgets, but would really appreciate some ideas from all of you. Hank Clow Meri Aura

Thanks everyone for your input. One of the many joys of C-Dory ownership is the helpful response from other owners. A shake-down cruise on Lake Superior is coming up followed by the actual installation of the solar vent. Wish me luck. By the way, we are planning an extended visit to Isle...

I plan to cut a 3 3/4" hole in the center of the forward hatch to install a solar vent. I did this in a sailboat 20 years ago without a problem. I was told the hatch might shatter.....any comments? Hank Clow
