Hi Jim, Good to hear from you! Give our best to Joan. RE: your reply to my comment.....my turn to feel foolish and unobservant. Oops! Nick Valkyrie II C-Dory 25

I am reading this thread somewhat in disbelief because the conditions being described dealing with slow home sales and empty marinas certainly does not describe what we’re seeing here in Ohio. Marinas on Lake Erie are full and our marina (750 slips) has been at capacity for the last five years...

Hi Brats, I’m sorry to say that Marcia and I on Valkyrie ll will not be attending the Gathering as planned. I had total knee replacement surgery in December and am not at the point where I trust it on slippery decks and slimy boat ramps. Have fun! Nick and Marcia

Hi Brats! Marcia and I are in, too! We’ll arrive 2-3 days early and probably stay about a week after. Also, Marcia is retiring on 2/1, so this will be our first big retirement excursion. Heading to the Keys for a month or so after that. Nick “Valkyrie II” C-Dory 25

Roger...just emailed Jim that you’re trying to reach hm. Nick Valkyrie

Good morning, Brats! Marcia and I are at the resort town of Put-in-Bay on South Bass Island in Lake Erie, about ten miles off the north coast of Ohio. We're docked at Oak Point SP, the smallest SP in Ohio at only one acre, but it's a gem with twenty, beautiful floating docks and a great view...

Hi Brats, We have a year-old, 2016 25 and are currently on Lake Erie for a few days of cruising and just relaxing. We had the same model two burner Wallas on our 2005 22 and never had a bit of trouble with it in the 11 years that we had Valkyrie. We've turned on the stove as we usually do and...

Take it up to Bahia Honda SP Marina.....dickage for $2 per foot. Very well protected, too.

Pat, Check email. Nick

Hi Brats! Marcia and I will be arriving on Sunday the fifth along with our critters, Belle and Boomer. Looking forward to meeting everyone! After the Gathering it's two weeks in the Keys! Regards, Nick "Valkyrie II"

Marcia and I will be at Bahia Honda SP for a few weeks after the Hontoon gathering. Nick Valkyrie II C-Dory 25

Pat, I'm picking up Valkyrie in NC in January and then heading to FL for a couple months. I'll post photos then. The panels will conform to the curvature of the roof and be mounted side-by-side to the rear of the roof. There will only be about an inch of roof space on each side. Should be...

Harvey, We bought the complete Go Power kit from Defender. I checked reviews online and they look good, if pricey. We have a Northstar Arrow 8.5 hard side truck camper with a 150 watt solar panel which keeps two group 27 batteries charged with no problem, although our fridge on the camper is...

Hi Brats! Mobile East is installing two, 100 watt, thin, flexible, solar panels on the roof of our new 25, Valkyrie II. We're hoping that this should be enough to keep the batteries topped-off so we can run the refrigerator. We'll find out in FL next winter! Regards, Nick and Marcia...

Hi Brats! Marcia and I plan on attending with our new 25, but I have question that I hope someone can help me with. I'll be in the same area with Valkyrie II in January, will return to Ohio without the boat and then we both will come back to FL shortly before the CBGT and head to the Keys for...

Hi Pat, Obviously you've had much more time on your 25 than we've had on our brand new one, so this is probably not new to you, but we just finished a week's cruise on Lake Erie and I spent quite a bit of time working with speed and fuel usage. We have a 2015 Yamaha 150 and in flat conditions...

Hi Brats, Man, oh, man am I with Bob on this one! While I don't have Dr. Bob's cruising experience, I have cruised thousands of miles and have personally rescued people and pets three times from Sea Eagle and Sevylor "deflatables" that burst seams, were abraded by rocks or had chronic leaks...

Thanks for the info guys. See you there! Nick "Valkyrie II"

Hi Brats! Marcia and I would like to join the CBGT at Hontoon Island next year on Valkyrie II, our new 25. After that, we plan to go down to the Keys for a few weeks. Marcia needs to lock in some vacation time now, so does anyone have idea of just when it will be next year? Thanks! Nick...
