    Ketchikan Alaska - marina CD22 haul & outside storage

    That sounds great. Do you store it with Bay Co? Is the reliable person checking on it available for another boat - is this their business? Is the $32/mo for the storage or the reliable person? Do you have any contact info? Thanks for the info. Very much appreciate it.

    Victron 602 shows battery always charging

    I'd suggest to perform the ZERO and SYNC. My guess is that it needs to be ZERO'd. Disconnect the negative from the shunt and perform the ZERO function. The SYNC is done with the battery fully charged and in the float mode.

    Alaska planning - buying dinghy

    Yeah, we thought about kayaks and almost purchased the Oru Kayak - foldable. But we have two SUP's that we use in warmer water (actually used them as our dinghy that last two years in the Gulf Islands & San Juan's). We enjoyed our dinghy that we had on our Sundowner Tug - so we decided to go...

    Alaska planning - buying dinghy

    That is a great idea. We are both runners (a few IronMan's under our belt) and have a hard time going more than a couple days without running. Rowing the dinghy around would be a great way to explore and get in some exercise. We took the View motorhome to Alaska this summer and I had a hard...

    Alaska planning - buying dinghy

    Thanks D.D. Yeah, it shows 4 person capacity - but after laying out the measurements on the floor, it'll be too big and like you said - bulky to lift. Just looks so perfect as we love to run ashore and explore. Back to the SD230 or the Baltik 7.5.

    Alaska planning - buying dinghy

    Very intrigued about this Saturn Mini-cat MC290???? http://www.boatstogo.com/inflatable-catamaran-mc290.asp Do you think two of us (late 40's, runners, fit, etc) can easily lift 100lb dinghy to the roof of a CD22?

    Alaska planning - buying dinghy

    Thanks for all the input. After going back and forth on spending the extra for the larger motor (6hp) which would require larger dinghy - and extra weight - and extra $$$. Now I'm thinking this: Saturn SD230 with high pressure floor or Saturn Mini-cat MC290...

    Alaska planning - buying dinghy

    Thanks Boris. Good point on the motor size - we had a Sundowner tug with a Rib dinghy and a 5hp. It would push the dinghy but was too slow to go any distance. We finally upgraded to a Mercury 9.9 - and then of course sold the Sundowner the next year. But it was fun with the 9.9hp. I'll see...

    Alaska planning - buying dinghy

    Thanks Roger. I noticed that the zodiac has a Aluminum motor clamp plate - will this (aluminum) interfere with the radar? I assume the dinghy can be in front of the radar without problems - is that true? Thanks.

    Alaska planning - buying dinghy

    We are planning to do the inside passage to Ketchikan, AK this summer and need to purchase a dinghy. We have limited space on our roof with the radar attached at the rear of the roof. From the searching that I've done on c-brats - it looks like the dinghy motor of choice would be the Suzuki...

    SPOT vs DeLORME INREACH Explorer

    We purchased the Inreach SE for our trip to Alaska (via motorhome) and used it to track our location via SpotWalla. I also used it to text my wife (before she flew into Fairbanks) during the times that I was out of cell phone range. You can use the "keyboard" on the Inreach or the smartphone...
