We always look forward to this great event! Please sign us up! John and Laurie on Slack Time

We use an "on demand" Coleman water heater. Uses propane. Works great! Really only use the coleman during winter camping as the simple solar showers work really good in warmer temps. Heads up about solar showers they can become scalding hot. :cry Once the reach about 100 degrees its better...

Jake B Sorry to hear about your engine / lower unit troubles, sounds like you made the best of the situation. Doing some last minute prep and trying to get out of town end of this week.

Jake B, Laurie and I will be following in your wake! I am glad you asked others for some local info as we too are newbies to the San Juans. We plan on leaving the SF Bay Area and trailering up to Anacortes where we sling the boat on to the water. We have just shy of a couple weeks on the...

Laurie and I have read this thread with great interest as our plan is to tow our C Dory "Slack Time" on up to the San Juan Islands at the end of August for the first two weeks of September. WHOO HOO!! Great current info for us. We still have not decided on our itinerary or where we plan on...

Hello all, just thought some of our fellow cruisers would want to know that the fuel dock at the Petaluma marina is under repair and will not have gas during our stay. Be sure to plan accordingly, as long as everybody starts out with full tank(s) at Rio Vista it should be no problem. We plan on...

Hello All! we l.are going to need a ride from Silver Cloud hotel to the pub this evening. Thomas is there room in the van us? Or maybe we can squeeze in with another brat or two. :). As I write we are awaiting our flight out of OAK to SEA. Thanks John and Laurie

Is there room for two more on Friday Night at the Brewery? We are looking forward to meeting everyone and catching up with another Delta Extravagenza cruiser, Jon on Gypsy River. John and Laurie

Wow that was a fast almost full cruise! Laurie and I look forward to this trip every year and this time we don't have to wait as long.Please sign us up Jim! :D

Looks like Laurie and I will be joining many of you at the Siver Cloud on Friday the 31st through Sunday! It's been about six years since we last did a Cbrat and boat show trip, last time we were given "C Dory Inspector" badges at the factory tour/ potluck- we were then C Dory-less, simply...

Laurie and I would like one. :D

Getting saddled up, buttoned up and ready to cruise on up to Rio Vista Tuesday. We should arrive before 6:00 pm. See you guys there! 8) John and Laurie

Laurie and I will be, hopefully, cruising from our home port of Glen Cove (Vallejo) to Rio Vista Tuesday. Our intent is to dawdle, and be up to Rio Vista Tues late afternoon. My assumption is that there may be anther CBrat or two that may have also arrived early... any of you fellow cruisers on...

Hello All, Jim does an amazing job of putting this event together in such a seamless way that you can't help but to have a great, one of a kind experience... Sign us up! :D We just blocked off our respective work schedules for fun on the boat... gosh I love doing that! I might have to drag...

The lockset assembly on my 2006 22' CD has been troublesome for the last year or so. Can lock it and it won't unlock. Took it apart, cleaned it, worked for awhile but it locked me out! again! :( No name on parts. Will try to post photo. Any ideas where to get a (better) replacement. Perko...

Hello Marty, Laurie and I are looking at your thread with great interest as we plan to cruise up in the San Juans next summer. We live on the SF Bay and have only visited up north on the big ferries. I really like the Pub Crawl Cruise. :beer Who knows maybe we will try to get some sort of a...

I love my 12 volt vacume (I happen to have a Dirt Devil but cheaper ones are out there) ! Cleaning up spilled Cheerios or whatever, getting those crazy little corners and inaccessible areas debris free- the vacuum is the deal! After that little electrical project and all those little pieces...

Laurie and I had such a great time! :D Thank you to all who had a hand in making the Delta and Bay Extravaganza such a success. A special thanks to Jim and Cathy who must have worked like dogs to make it all come together in such a seemingly effortless event. It was nice to have met you all and...

I don't know about you veterans of this extravaganza but we are pretty darn exited! :D Sea Queen is getting a little extra attention; she is on her trailer, oil change, topping off batteries, securing items, making lists and checkin 'em twice. I'm having a hard time focusing on that four...

I am glad I read this thread and have trim tabs with no zincs :shock: . I have not observed any corrosion... yet. I will be adding the zincs ASAP. We purchased our boat with worn/ half removed bottom paint and was hesitant to buy it because of it. I really did not want bottom paint (some...
