Harvey on SleepyC - I don't know how to do internal site links, but here is how I found the reference on the similar trip. Go under Forms Go to Grand Adventures Go to Lewiston to Astoria (by using search). It is right there!

Dave on Raven Dancer we would look forward to you joining us for the last 150 miles of our journey. Pedro on C-Casa has expressed similar interest in joining us from Portland to Astoria. I will do detailed trip planning and present a proposed day by day itinerary before we start the trip so you...

Colby on Midnight Flyer you are certainly welcome to come and we would look forward to seeing you. I think this trip may be closer for you than your recent Rio Vista journey. I finally looked up Eric's similar trip information on Chack Chack in 2014. They also went in October and had a...

Harold on PennyBridge, thanks for posting the George Grech video. This video was very encouraging for our own trip. This was a trip by two guys in one 22 foot C-Dory. They took their Lewis & Clark journey in September of 2014, 520 miles from Lewiston to the Columbia River Bar, in 13 days. They...

Thanks Floyd for another great video. I liked your early morning hike videos. The music was very tranquil. I look forward to your forthcoming documentation of our Lewis & Clark Expedition cruise!

This is a pretty good tutorial for our trip. Tony Fleming takes our same route in reverse on board his namesake Fleming yacht. We will not have to worry as much about grounding as he did when he went into the small marinas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0PGkDY2EXc

Thank you all for attending our 16th Annual Catalina Offshore Adventure. This year seemed like the hottest weather on record, but we still enjoyed the nearly perfect weather. We would not make this journey each year if this was not such a magical place in paradise. John & Robbin, Steve et. al...

Right now, we have four (4) vessels committed to this entire trip. They are as follows: 1. Jim & Kath on Pounder 2. Bernie on Vega 3. Floyd on Far C’R 4. Chuck and Penny on Two Bears. In addition, we have John on Firefly doing the 150-mile Snake River stretch with us. If there are others still...

Thanks everyone for your valuable inputs. John Firefly, that is great that you are going the 150 mile stretch from Lewiston to Tri Cities. Brent Discovery, thanks for the magazine reference. There is good information in the article on the lower Columbia - especially for Astoria, Cathlamet, St...

For those that will be at MDR on Sunday night, we will likely either take the Harbor taxi or walk over to Whiskey Reds for a kick off dinner for those that want to participate. For Sunday night I expect it will be eight of us at MDR: Jim & Kath, John & Robbin, Joel & Susan, John & Laurie. I am...

Good Joel. We will be happy to see you and Susan on Sunday at MDR. I spent all day working on my boat trailer lights. I finally found the short 1/2 way under the trailer in the middle! Kath said I absolutely had to get the turn signals working or we could not drive through downtown LA with...

Thanks everyone for your help and offerings. Quite touching the outpouring of interest. Fred, thanks for the chart sharing. I already bought the entire set of charts myself but someone else may want to take you up on this generous invitation as they would save themselves about $75 or so. It is...

PennyBridge. Thank you for the link information. Very helpful. Also thank you for the update on your status for the trip.

Hi John For fishing at Catalina, the easiest is bait casting using squid as bait. Usually frozen squid is available in the store there, but sometimes it is not available. If you can bring some down with you that is good insurance. We always take our cockpit shade cover to Catalina, though we...

Thanks Chuck for all that you do. These items are all very helpful. I need to get my own thoughts together as I have been out of town for some time and I will continue to be on the run for awhile. I will call you in the next two weeks to discuss (1) picking the exact launch date and (2)...

Joel. Thanks for doing this. Who knows, the factory may jump in. You may want to also ask one of their large dealers. After all this is a unique off-shore adventure involving C-dory's. Also, it allows them to reach into the large California market from the Pacific North West.
