I found a couple of Merlin pics a well as a couple of 30' Tomcat pics in my AK 07 photo album.

I cobbled up a kayak stabilizer that attaches to a folding boarding ladder. Took a couple of lines that hooked onto the ladder on one end and a big fender on the other. I ran the lines inside of some PVC pipe so the fender stands off of the boat. It works great..I just stuck a pic in the B. C album

good deal, have you figured out a way to get it home? However you plan on doing it you should pencil in a few weeks of vacationing...Merlin knows the way to Elfin Cove. enjoy.

I have something like that for our RV that i got at Fred Meyer

here's some more thoughts on life jackets. Over the years there have been several different folks that have been caught in a capsized cabin boat and drown when their inflated life jacket kept them from readily escaping ( two just this fall). Then there was a chap that went in the water and the...

it's correct, the boat is the stand-on vessel but something about that spinning prop just screams "get the hell out of the way". I always used to look both ways when navigating around the Elfin Cove International airport..... the only airport in the world without a Starbucks

what a great adventure, keep those write-ups coming

do the quick easy test first, check your battery voltage while cranking. Fuel injected, computer controlled engines will crank over but not start if the computer doesn't see a threshold voltage.

electric motors are fun, one always wonders isit the motor or the circuit. A lot of good motors are mistakenly replaced. Here's a good battle plan to follow. *Load test the battery. the battery must be healthy before proceeding *check the amp draw of the motor. If high- it's probably a...

I think the old tub is just going to get another dose of elbow grease and Collenite fleetwax. I'm going to put that detail money towards a custom built roof rack incorporating a manual crab pot puller davit.

thanks for the info. I need to get out and talk to some detailers. i'll at least spring for pro polish and wax job

I'm thinking about treating my old tub to a professional detailing job. I see a lot of the local auto detailers extoling the virtues of a ceramic finish treatment. ..... has anybody had this done? is it worth it?

a hailer would be handy, especially on the Columbia. Better to have it and not use it than to need it and not have it. I always dreamed of having a horn life a freighter...damn you could have some fun with the hog lines on a foggy day :)

A nice thing about the C-Brats is the collection folks with a shared interest in C-Dory's. It's a great place to get your C-dory fix and escape the world of politics. Twins or single engine? single or twin axle? blue or red? suzuki or yamaha? these are all vital, important issues, political...

I would opt for which ever one has the better parts available and support in your area.

damn football game kept me up late, I couldn't turn it off until the game clock went to zero.

I had an inshore masters and near coastal 50 ton license and spent over a decade running charter fishing boats in AK. Those credentials help me pay for the kids college and his first house :) In 2020 I didn't renew for a variety of reasons, retirement, cancer and not wanting the possible...

that's why you use gangion for heavy duty applications
