    Passing of Warren Keuffel - AKA Doryman

    While he hasn't posted here for awhile, I thought many of you might be interested in learning that Warren passed away earlier this month. I learned of this via an automated Google search for "C-Dory" and the notification with his obituary showed up in my email this AM. I met Warren and one or...

    interlocking Teak tiles

    I came across these in my Facebook feed the other day.They are similar to the rubber deck tiles in installation but have teak topping. They might be of interest to a brat. @$8.40/sq ft. they are not that much more expensive than the dry deck tiles ($6.29/sq ft at West Marine).

    Emergency/extra trailer lights for a CD22

    All - awhile back when I had the 22, I used to launch out of Edmonds. The parking there is pretty tight and often when I returned, someone would have taken out one of my trailer lights (and only one of 4 people left a note). So... I eventually built a spare set of lights. I bought a set from...

    Model of the Dometic refrigerator in a Tomcat

    Does anyone know what the model number is of the refrigerator that is typically installed in the Tomcat? Mine crapped out sometime between last use and this weekend and is flashing an error code that (I believe) indicates that compressor pump wont start. I either need to get it repaired or...

    "It was the best $10 we ever spent! I’m talking about our lifetime National Park Senior Pass, available the US citizens or permanent residents the day they hit their 62nd birthday. You know that old adage about all good things coming to an end? The writing is on the wall for the $10 National...

    How 'bout dem Cubs?!

    I've been a Cubs fan all my life. My dad was a Cubs fan, my mom's a Cubs fan and my siblings and their children are Cubs fans. When I was a young man, I'd call my mom and Dad every weekend on Sat. AM. During the summer my Dad would often talk about the Cubs. He'd go over their latest...

    Albacore out of Ilwaco

    Sunday was definitely the day to be out tuna fishing. We crossed the Columbia river bar early in the AM having pushed off the dock at about 5. The bar was restricted to 20' and under but that appeared to be based on the reports from the previous night's last daylight. The ebb was just getting...

    Interlocking teak tiles

    I came across these on Amazon today while looking for something else. I don't know how flexible they are in the one dimension but it looks like they might be a nice way to do an interior, cockpit or shower floor.

    01/29 - 01/31 - Seattle Boat Show 2016

    As might be apparent from the lack of any earlier posting. I've been too preoccupied with work and other life issues to worry about putting together any CBGT for this year's boat show. As such I'm letting everyone know that I'm abdicating my previous role as organizer for this event. If...

    Any Tomcat owners who can take a pic for me?

    If there's a Tomcat owner who would be willing to take and post a couple of photos of where the swim ladder hand rails attach to the bracket, I'd appreciate it. My boat is a 185 miles away at Ilwaco and I'm working on a system to hold a bait tank pump. In brief, I have the pump mounted on some...
