Dog days. Departing Whittier.

Summer evening in the Homer harbor.

Buried by 50 inches of snow in December 2022

Mark, could you post the make and model of the Chinese heater you installed and where you purchased it from? I would like to install one in my 22' this winter.

Little Buddy heaters do not work very well. I've used one in my 22' Cruiser. They create too much condensation, and you're right that ventilation is an issue (they shut off automatically when there's not enough oxygen, which is a good thing). I am hoping to install a Planar diesel heather this...

The Navionics app works really well for navigation on an iPhone or iPad (not sure about Android). I use that almost exclusively, though I do have an old Garmin unit installed as well. There's a yearly subscription, but it's well worth the cost. You could also install a simple sounder like the...

Looks like he did a great job. Was it Tim at TNT Marine in Homer by chance? He looked my C-Dory before I bought it.

Good points to consider. Cordova harbor is overrun by bowpickers during closures in June and July, and the Valdez harbor is slammed with seiners in between hatchery openers (mostly often late June and early July). Expect to raft up to some bigger boats, which is all part of the fun. This might...

Dfisher, I'm sure you've already tracked down a mechanic, but I've had good luck with All Seasons Honda. I bought a 22' in Homer last march, and they did a pre-buy inspection and printed out all the stats for me. I also bought a kicker from them last fall; an employee met me on a Sunday to...

The seller describes the "last 6 feet of stern" as saturated. I'm assuming he is referring to the cored deck and transom. Is it possible for the fiberglass itself on the bottom and sides of the hull to be saturated with water?

We heave our 30-pound dogs around the boat and dock using Ruff Wear life vests. They have sturdy handles built in. I realize that won’t work for all dogs and people, but they work really well for us.
