Can you help a Brat out...?

I just got off the phone with a gentleman (Mike) for Cathlamet, WA who was inquiring about my "Boat For Sale" ad here on the C-Brats Site. We talked for over an hour and became best friends in that time.

I am not concerned about selling him my boat, but more concerned that he finds a boat in his home area. He has read about our boats and is in need of seeing and feeling the boat up close and personal.

So if anyone in that area is up to being a C-Dory Dipomat then please give me a shout and I will send you his (Mike) email address and contact information so you can converse with Mike and maybe you too will find an new friend in the process like I did.
 
We're having a CBGT in Friday Harbor on the 8th of May. If Mike can make to the San Juans during that weekend, he'll get more than enough opportunities to see 16s, 22s, 25s, and 255s up close and personal. I'll even take him out for a ride as I'm others would, too.
 
That was fun talking with you Mike and I sure did learn about the C Dory and made a new friend to boot.

Dunno if I can make Friday Harbor in early May ..... am up to my xyz in lambing right now and the spigot doesn't turn off that early ...... but I will try.

I caught a salmon off Skamakawa on Friday and think I saw a CD amongst the fleet of boats. I sure would like to see the CD up close.
Thanks

hey Mike, if you want to stop in the school in Longview and talk c-dorys or head down the freeway 25 miles to look, shoot me off a pm...I'd take you for a spin if I knew when I going.

you realize that if you start down this road, you'll be selling the sheep, your bathroom will fill with marine catalogs, you'll start spending way to much time on the internet and it will be a rare day that you can get in or out of a boat ramp without fielding a host of questions?

We sold our cows (didn't have sheep), but other than that, all that B~C says above is EXACTLY what happened to us.

I'll never forget the day that I was towing the boat down the driveway when some poor ole guy was driving in to my field to pick of the bales of hay that he had cut and baled on our property so he could feed his cows in the winter....it was one hot summer day and I was enroute to the San Juan Islands to play! (In fact today, I even removed more cross fencing on the property as it isn't needed anymore).

Additionally, we've met a whole herd of fantastic C-Brats!, purchased a more reliable tow rig and built a new shop to house the boat in. :lol:
 
Hey Dave, BC, Brooks,

Stop with the temptations ..... I retired and wanted to try ranching so I did... on a small scale.... 40 acres .... and now that I have done that for awhile I am bit by the water bug.

I can relate to the cross fence/hay comment as I plan on culling about 35 of the remaining ewes and removing the cross fences and let 15 or 20 ewes and the hay man have the rest while I explore the NW.

Tonight I ate another piece of the Springer caught Friday and that and the Chardonay made for one great meal plus the urge to be able to do it again..... and again.

The Columbia is about 76 feet from the porch and there is lots or it/most of it i haven't seen ... and that is just for starters.
I'll be calling and lets go sip a liquid and talk C Dory.
