    "Boating is expensive!"

    I really enjoyed El and Bill's story about money and life. Pat and I spent a lot of money on bigger and bigger boats and then got our 22 ft C-Dory. What we found was that this boat was more fun than any we had owned and a lot less expensive. Had we learned to know El and Bill sooner ---you...

    Porta Potti

    My favorite subject! We have uses Tetford Tank product for years. We use the blue powered type. I think it does have some formaldehyde, but we have not had any odor. Perhaps El and Bill will comment on the Ontario rules. They have cruised all over and probably have a good answer for you...

    OIL EATING MICROBES???

    I have become very skeptical of anything our government tells us.I have trouble understanding that 75% of the largest oil spill in the world has been cleaned up in just a few weeks. Something like the doctor with the big needle telling you that this won't hurt. I am sure that Washington will...

    Navigating by your Telephone?

    Hi El and Bill, Glad to hear that you are still on top of your game. I am a little slow of the electronic stuff. I will have an I-Phone as soon as Verizon gets them. In our area AT&T does not do as good a job. Fred, Pat and Mr. Grey (the cat) PS: Mr Grey could...

    NOAA Fishing License

    Just one more way that big government is trying to rule our lives.Each day the news from Washington means less freedom for us. When I was a kid you did not need any license to fish in tidal waters in Maryland. Not the case now and the feds want a piece of the action. Fred...

    Lake Champlain Info Sought

    Hi, West Port is a nice place-good food at the local marina. Try to cross the lake to Vergennes, Vt. You can find it on your chart there is a nice trip up a small river to a free dock with a view of a waterfall. Walk up the hill into the charming town and have lunch at one of the many...

    Oil is here

    Marc and Dr. Bob, Keep us posted. We can trust Marc to tell us what is happening in his area. Since he is not a talking head from a news company he can be trusted. Dr. Bob studies and thinks before he speaks-something I many times forget to do. I always read his posts carefully and usually...

    Oil is here

    Thanks for the on site reports. Seeing the pictures of the birds suffering breaks my heart. What we can't see is probably worse. Our government in Washington should let you folks on the front line decide what is the right way to clean up and protect your area. The one quote from DC that really...

    The Cruising Adventures of Wild Blue and crew...

    Hi to the 3 of you, Izzy sure is a contented cat. I guess Izzy is almost as spoiled as our Mr. Grey. He loves to travel. We even take him rides in our Miata Sports Car. He travels in his case strapped down on the folded soft top. When we get the case out he gets excited and wants in the case...

    Momma Byrd Update (Byrdman & GYPSY's Mom)

    Hello, Our church is located way down in a valley in Red Lion, Pa. We will request prayers tomorrow morning. Because of the shape of the valley I like to think that our prayers are very focused. All that said the LORD always hears our prayers. Fred, Pat and Mr. Grey(the cat)

    Suggestion Box for C-Dory Factory

    My thoughts are a little off the posts on this subject. Last week I read once again that C-Dory production may not be happening. Just days ago I looked at the dealer map. Just not enough dealers in MHO. The East coast is very slim. It would seem that more dealers would equal more sales. If...

    butane stove questions

    We ordered our C-Dory with out a stove top and purchased a butane cook top in a nice plastic case. We stored this in the locker under the sink. That way we did not lose any counter top space. The burner worked very well and could be slowed down to a simmer unlike some propane stoves used for...

    The Cruising Adventures of Wild Blue and crew...

    Hi Jim, Joan and Izzy, We looked at the picture of Snack and Izzy. Did they get along?. Mr. Grey does not like other cats or dogs. In fact one of our neighbors had a cat statue on her porch this summer and when Pat took Mr Grey for a stroll he hissed at the fake cat. Mr. Grey does not...

    For Dixie...

    Merry Christmas Thanks for the good news about the Walmart wines. We always had a couple of boxes on our boats and always carry a box in our Roadtrek. Now we will have a larger choice and since we anchor at many Walmarts we will always be close to a source of good wine. When we are in New...

    My new 16

    A new boat is always fun. Since my wife cannot cruise with me anymore the thought of cruising solo on a 16 footer has crossed my mind. I would be interested in the comments of 16 foot cruiser owners on their cruising. I have long been a fan of using the least of anything to get the job done...
