St. Johns River, Moving up river

Glad you stopped by Barefoot, nice to have met you. New experience to have C-Brats visit while on a cruise. Enjoy it very much.

Seen a green 22 c-dory Yesterday go past in both directions. Didn't get the name . Do you suppose there are c-dorys out there that do not join us on line?

Posted some new pictures in the album yesterday , I wonder if I can post a couple here.....I'll try. I keep forgeting .....................What was I going to try to do/ :roll:

There's a 2000 green 22 C-Dory with a 80 Yamaha that lives in a boat house about a mile north of Jax on the Saint Johns. He registered on the Brat Map but hasn't made any posts.

Thanks Joe,
Thats what the Ranger site needs.......... Hey!!, us trailer cash ( ah, I mean trash) needs a place to live too. But really think about it. Those are modulars. with two good foundations, not just trailers. . Who needs to spend $150,000 bucks to live on the water. Hontoon Landing checked this site out today just to see their competion. I told them we could compete with that $3200 a week. We can buy trailers for $1000 and a couple of pontoons for another $1000. Right off the bat we would get our investment back and make $1200 bucks. Toilets will be inside. Who wouldn't go for that? Anyone ready to invest?
We are now anchored on the Snake river, Just up river 100 yds from the Bold Eagle. We dinked over and had some delishous venison sausage and wonderfull company. I showed Glenn the way into the C-Brats and have asked him to post some interesting tails of the Exumas. Hopefully he will become a guest speaker...........for free. He and his wife Buzz have spent many years living full time on a 36 ft. Marine Trader. I bet he will answer the many questions you may want to ask. He will tell you how to do it for just about nothing.............................. He is tighter than skin on a crow bar................Ah.....His wife told me that. He will read this and feel he must respond.


Stay tuned for the continueing saga.................Will Glenn respond?..........Will Buzz make him? ..... will he still feel friendly to the Mis Dee?.......................Has he been having an afair with a girl up river? I will post that picture in our album of the suspected lass. Judge for yourselves. :disgust

Captd,
Sorry I missed you on the river today. The wife and I took the tug to hontoon and saw that you had gone. I checked a couple on points to anchor but did not check the snake river.
One good thing is that we did not travel through any of the river trailer parks as shown. Have a great time as you continue your stay on the St. Johns.

Darrel and Dee,

It was sure great to meet up with you all over the holidays. We had a wonderful time on the Comfy Dory for those 6 days. After we left you all at Hontoon Is. on Monday, New Year's Eve day, we headed south a couple of miles and found a nice loop off the main channel to celebrate the Eve. Couldn't quite make it all the way to midnight though. Probably too much :cocktail :beer too early!
Got up on New Year's Day and had our last great breakfast on the water with the last of our home grown chicken eggs. We weighed anchor about 10:00 and had a lovely cruise across Lake Monroe and then through the river down (upriver) to Lake Harney at about 1:00. We had lunch at the Jolly Gator Restaurant on the River about a mile south of Harney where we had left our truck and trailer and then sadly left for home, arriving at about 3:00. I had the next day off work, so did not have to worry about clean up til then...A great trip! We are now planning for a late Spring or early Summer trip all the way around on the loop...St. John's up to Jax and then down the ICW back to our house on Merritt Is. Probably take 9 or 10 days to do it without having to rush.
Toby and I will continue to follow your reports on your trip. If we can be of assistance to you, please do not hesitate to call. 321-452-2467

Sorry we missed you, Ron. We were at anchor on the other side of the island. We are now back in Astor. Taking on some ships stores. Wash clothes and a few other adjustments and then on to Salt Spring and Silver Glenn Springs. And on to Polatka.

Seen a big gator on the way down the river. It wouldn't let us sneak up on him for a picture.

Glad you guys enjoy your Comfy Dory. Tad & Toby Hope to cruise with you guys in the future. Making that loop will be a really good trip. Have fun.
