Power solutions from the past. The last engine type is still running (I believe 3 of them) in the gas fields as backups - the flywheel weighs 12 tons, each stroke of the pump delivers a 55 gallon drum . . . American Power: Flywheel Technology

Mischief: Fort Myers To Hernando Beach: http://www.youtube.com/my_videos_insight?v=XjryApXHZKo The Pine Island Inside Passage shown is perfectly doable in a C-Dory.

Just the way the Pilgrims did it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBkU6X2APYU Happy Thanksgiving! The Mattsons

I have lost faith that our government is capable of much in this mess, other that pointing fingers. Our solution is we're taking the boat down to the Okeechobee Waterway, Tuesday, so it will be in fresh water for the summer. Personally I don't care if it's hay, hair, or anything else, as long...

Yes, I suppose he is our "good friend" at this point. How strange the world can turn!

They do indeed, Roger! There was one other pig adventure I had (when a teen): Hog Hunting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nnkTz_0y1k

A tough time catching them now, we've had an 80% fish kill up and down the coast. The 26 degree temps killed them by the millions (even the catfish died and I thought nothing could kill them). On our way back from Crystal River we didn't see any fish on the scope at all. Will take some time...

This really isn't a Cobb vs . . . anything video, but hopefully will give some insight as to what it is and how to cook with one or some cooking ideas in general. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AECpyiAVgtk

A good old boy locking through in another brand boat . . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-q_402dO2M Whatever you do, don't stir the pot under the bed . . .

Thanks Harvey, it is nice to get an "attaboy" every once in awhile. Forgot to mention one of the C-Brats is on "Mischief XIII" - we both anchored behind some spoil islands and hailed them in the morning when underway.

Haven't posted much video here lately, the wife and I recently bought a trawler and transported it from Jacksonville to Tampa via the ICW. Still have and love our C-Dory but the Prairie is certainly a great boat too. "Mischief" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjHNSzZ0PxE Mischief II: "Orange...

You're quite welcome. In a perfect world, one would have a livaboard barge, with a C-Dory on davits available whenever a river came into range for exploration. Life isn't perfect, but the C-Dory at least makes a lot of those trips possible (and the big one too). Something completely...

Most boats bypass the Weeki Wachee, Bayport, Crystal River, Inglis, etc., etc., etc. and I'm showing people who will take the time on the GL how to get into and navigate them. Nothing more than that. I've been taking boats up and down them for 40+ years on a private and commercial basis. All...

I have done a similar run. If you want to use it as a simple highway, you can really cover ground. MM http://www.treasuresites.com

Intracoastal - The Weeki Wachee River http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrOua3YP8Es There is a "high quality" in the lower right of the screen if you want to watch full-screen or in high quality in the little one. Nothing to do with the C-Dory but some may wish to have pointers on hog hunting...

You guys might want to take a deep breath and read this about Skipper: http://dringersoll.com/intro.html Never met him or Les L, but sounds as if cut from the same cloth.
