First time in any marked waters,thats why I figured I would ask. Im not the type to be where I shouldn't. This particular channel was only seeing a few boats a day not big boats. If I was somewhere that had big boats and busy it would be easy to see if your in the way. Not sure how wide other...

What is the standard rules are you allowed to anchor and fish to the side of channels between these buoys ,or do you need to be out of there? The last trip it seemed to get shallow fairly quick when getting out of the channel.Would think its okay if its to the side,but really don't know . Some...

Good Luck with purchase and travels. First boat I bought a 19ft Montauk 12 hrs away South Port N.C.,had to get it winterized . Had to keep checking the one bearing would get hot all the way home.Just got home before a winter storm.

Thanks for the informed knowledge ,can see the usefulness of waterway guides. Im kind of an extra careful type personality,especially with wife along on the trips. I can see the usefulness of learning all I can about every new location ,each inlet or waterway will be unique. First time in area...

Next time will have her take a photo. They were located where the Carabelle river enters the bay on your way to Dog Island.Thought They were different than those red and white markers in the photo. The stripes were horizontal or diaganol. Had the shallow water alarm go off a few times when...

Sure pays to beat the weather to the marina.

Thanks for replys,last trip there were 2 signs with red either diagonal or horizontal stripes,thats the one the wife couldn't find on her phone when I asked her to look it up. Never did go between them not knowing what it meant.But it was wide between signs. The intercoastal was near there...

Congrats on boat ,welcome to site,beginning of January we were at Weffings while someone did paper work on a 25 maybe it was you.

Now that were traveling with boat,wondering if there is a good app to learn navigation signs for waterways? The last trip we saw a few that I didn't know,wife tried looking them up as we saw them but didn't find them.

Guess their hooves are better paddles then you would think.

Gypsy we were at Weffings a few weeks ago,someone had just purchased a 25 C-Dory wondering if it was you? We were waitng for Marc to finish with the new owners to speak with him.

Hear from people with similar stories,people halfway around globe from same town or know each other.

Thanks Hardee good info,will try that method. I follow the fishing boats on Erie to see where their bitng.

Thanks Pete a lot of good info, sounds nice there. Sure do get a lot of good first hand info on this site.

Enjoy reading Fladgold variety of videos. Last trip out I would see a lot of fish ,maybe a hump and drop off. Then trying to fgure out drifting, anchor rode and where exactly sonar is reading? Not that easy to get back on spot,usually after a few times just anchored in area,but not exactly where...

Glad they were rescued,guess the unexpected happens quite easily. Tells me always have life jacket in dinghy,and or on if in cold water or rough water.

Considering taking boat and truck camper there next spring. Anyone familiar with boat ramp there,just wondering if there is plenty of room ,we measure around 58ft with truck camper and boat. Looks like you could go down cape Fear river to South Port ,Bald Island ect. Not sure how many miles to...

At campground a Florida Trooper was my neighbor,he suggested the nitrogen and remembering him mentioning keeping the moisture out. I will always just air up and check pressure,didnt know nitro was expensive. On my 2011 Ford dually I noticed check cracks on BF Goodrich tires only 15,000...

The 25 lb manson on bow. Stowed away another 20lb under birth storage. If overnighting will go to trouble of getting it out for second anchor. Also fortress with put together ,just need to shackle it to chain and rode. Keep it laying in berth out of the way then put it on stern deck at night...

Thanks John good advise,would love a big roomy boat,with shower and head, But like the simpleness and ease of use with the 23 the more I tow the boat and use some tight launches realize ,less headaches with this model. If you keep a boat in same marina every season a bigger boat with the extras...
