I did the same project 2 years ago. All my gas tank screw holes were dry and well siliconed until I got to the very last one. I found no evidence of silicone (maybe they forgot?) . This one screw hole had rot and moisture as far away as 12". Dont think just because you do a light exploratory...

1 out of every 3 I catch between Newport and Astoria are blue. I have been told it is caused by iodine in their diet. I have heard old times say the blue ones taste better, I think I agree with them.

Why do bones matter?

3 things I would like to accomplish this fall winter or spring; Experience prawning, Become familiar with Puget Sound and surrounding areas, and have closer look at how others are fishing their C-dory's. I have the halibut / bottom fishing / tuna /crabbing figured out down here in...

Bearing Mystery. UPDATE.... Schwabs attempted to re-do the job again this evening. They called and told me they found the "culprit". They claimed there was too much pitting and rust on the spindle, and could not get a good seal. I then went down to take a closer look. I saw almost no rust, zero...

Great advice here as always. I will be researching and upgrading soon.

I know some things are just too good to be true, could this be an exception to the rule? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6dneOqX3Ek This stuff is not cheap but if it works as advertised will save weeks of yearly maintenance. Any opinions? I'm considering giving it a whirl...

Use the point of a can opener and score along the spider webs (tracing ). Clean well and build up with gel coat as others have mentioned.

I would be worried for anyone weighing over 90lbs climbing up that ladder onto the "float". I guarantee if I climbed up it, there would be some damage.

Yes I have often thought it would be very interesting to talk to a Columbia River Tug Capt. Growing up I have always dreamed of how great of a job that must be, Possibly in my top 3 list of dream jobs. The Dalles to Bonneville is definitely the Wind Surfing / Kite Boarding capital of the world...

If anyone is interested in my 2 cents here it is.... I grew up along the Columbia. If I could choose any month to do this trip, it would be October. September can still be very hot.
