Thanks for all the info. A quiet anchorage is more to our liking than a marina happy hour (we're not big drinkers). Though we have enjoyed meeting people, we work with the public so we kind of like to get away from it all. The Broughton's are not etched in stone for us. We are still new at...

Hey C-Brats, I've come back to you again to get your help with a trip we are planning. My husband and I are excited to go to the Broughton's in Nakiska, our 22 ft. C-Dory. We've been to the San Juans several times, the last time being in the middle of summer. Decided that wasn't our thing...too...

At the risk of sounding like a landlubber, here goes. We bought a 1988 22 cruiser last year but due to several bugs didn't get to use it much until this past summer. We did several overnight trips but on one in the San Juans it became apparent that unless it's flat calm, there is a disturbing...

Thanks so much for all your quick responses. The previous owner took out the stove, put in a propane one and put solid drawers underneath so we don't have an existing plug. From what you're saying we just need a 30amp adapter and we can use an outdoor extension cord, being careful that they...

You are not alone. Our story is almost identical. We have the same boat and same motor. We bought ours in June from the original owners. Ours does the same exact thing you described. Our mechanic is stumped. We just had the lower unit replaced and it didn't make a difference. If you figure it...

Thank you so much for all the suggestions. I'm not sure where Twin Bridges is but I'm sure I can Google it. Thanks for the quick responses. I know I'll be tapping into all of your knowledge on this site in the future.

Hello All, We recently purchased a 1988 22 cruiser and would like to take her out for a few days in the San Juans. We are wondering where would be the best place to launch in Anacortes and inperticular leave the truck and trailer where it will be safe for several days. Thanks for any suggestions...
