Thanks to all who have served and sacrificed.

Don't call the cops! We've decided we need to get a bigger boat so we can travel on longer trips in greater comfort. Not sure what we're going to get yet, but whatever it is we'll still consider ourselves C-Brats for life. We sold the boat to a very nice couple who also live in Oak Harbor. So...

I just got an IPAD Pro and loaded Navionics charting software. I can not get the chart to display fully on the screen. Is this normal or am I missing something. Thanks FRed

I have replaced my frig with a freezer. I no longer need the frig and would like to pass it on. I am located in Oak Harbor, Wa.

Would there be any interest in a late gathering at Reed/Prevost Harbor on the last weekend in September. With the floating docks there should be enough space. Hopefully there will have lifted the burn ban and we can bring firewood. If there s enough interest I would be willing to host. Let me...

My wife Robbin has finished a blog on our trip. http://ryoungwriter.com/?page_id=1415

We are taking the later Anacortes/Sidney ferry later this month. We don't wand to push it so we will need to stay on the road some where that night. I was hoping someone had stayed someplace they might recommend. There is a Walmart in Campbell River that appears to let overnight camping. Thanks...

I just replaced my King Marine 2005 5700# trailer bunks. I went from four 2x6 bunks to two 4x6 bunks. I have them set at 54" apart measured from the outside of the bunk. The question is: is this wide enough? I would like to set them right the first time I put the boat on the trailer. Thanks...

We are planning to cruise north the next few years including Alaska. I was considering a solar system but am now thinking of a small portable generator instead. With the lack of consistent sunshine I am leaning towards a generator. I have an older 1K Honda generator but think a 2K would be...

I am looking into buying a portable frig/freezer. I am considering either an Engle or Isotherm. Any opinions would be appreciated. I am mostly going to use it to make ice. Thanks Fred

Robbin and I were able to get out on the boat for a few days last week. We tied up to a mooring buoy in the late morning in Fossin Bay last Tuesday for a few days. The marine weather was for small craft early evening but we thought we were tucked away for the night no matter what happened. Well...

I kept blowing the 3 amp main fuse when I try to transmit on my VHF radio. When I replaced it at the dock it worked even at 25 watts. When we were underway it immediately blew again. I checked to make sure the antenna plug was tight. What would be a good way to check that it was either the...

I have finalized the date for the gathering. We will have 550' of dock space with some electrical hookups. We will also have a room set aside Saturday afternoon for the potluck. I was hoping to have dinner at Chinook's Friday night for those who show up on Friday. There also is a breakfast cafe...
