Hi George, I kayaked that area a number of years ago - very nice. Have you been through Porlier Pass? We went through a little early for slack and with the kayaks, once you were in the current there was no going back. We are headed up your way and plan on getting to the Comox gathering...

Hi Martin, We are planning on attending and will be coming from the La Conner gathering. We would like space at the dock if still available. Thanks, Steve and Karen

We have decided that we are going to make the trip north once again. We plan to arrive the week before and join this party! We have been to the San Juan's many times but there are lots of places we have never been and La Conner is one of them. Do we need to make any reservations or is it...

Happy B-Day Jay! Hope you continue to have sunny days. I have never gone on the hard (or soft mud) while at anchor. Do you wake up or even notice it if you are sleeping? I am thinking I might wake up do to the change in motion. It is amazing how good cell coverage is getting. Steve

I tried to download the slide show with win7 and it did not work. It seemed to not download the whole file and that file would not execute. Has anyone else been able to download it recently? Steve

Hi Jay, I took the time over the last couple evenings to read through all your posts and now look forward to following along. I know you do significant planning for these trips. Reading about the Moki having a problem and having to paddle to get back got me to thinking. Probably a low...

The results of my brake change have been good with a little problem in the beginning. The new Kodiak brakes work much better than the Tie Down I had. But I am not sure how long the calipers have been so corroded they where not working. When I installed all 4 new hub/rotors, bearings, and...

Hi Bill and El, Have a great trip! Look forward to hearing about it when you return. Steve

Hi Joel, Going to get some heat is right - 100F on Thursday! We would enjoy meeting up with you if it works out. I am not very familiar with Shasta and not up on the fishing options. Let me know what you decide. Steve

Gas on Lake Powell a couple weeks ago $5.35 per gal at Dangling Rope. Steve

How to decide when to replace the batteries? I bought my 22 in Sept. of 04 and it came with Optima blue top dual purpose batteries. I have had zero problems. One time I ran down a one of the batteries watching a movie on a laptop - just used the other to start and charge. After 7 years I am...

We have some friends that are renting a houseboat starting April 28th and I am trying to get my boat and truck ready so we can go also. If it all comes together we will try to meet up. We will look for you on 16 and 68. Steve

I have ordered the Kodiak brakes to replace my Tie Down G4 models. I have a set of brake pads for the G4's and I will have 4 complete hubs/rotors and calipers that could be used for parts. Let me know if interested. Steve

I have an 04 King trailer and went out to check the brake pads. The first wheel I looked at had frozen pistons in the caliper. I was able to push out one piston but don't think there are rebuild kits for these. Has anyone replaced the Tie Down G4 with stainless rotors with a newer system? Tie...

Hi Bill and El, Like many others it was your stories that I happened onto on the web that fired my imagination and led me to buy my CD22. It seems you should have received commissions for all the C-Dory's you two have sold - without even trying. It has been our good fortune to have...

I also prefer to use a credit card rather than a debit card. There are some places I prefer to shop that either don't take credit cards or only accept a card I prefer not to use. I sometimes buy gas at Costco and I don't use the Amex card (the only credit card they accept), so I use a debit...

I have done limited towing with a full boat cover on my 22. No more than about 20 miles and not over 55 mph. Unless the cover can be tied very tight all over the boat you will have significant flapping/working of the material. I am sure it has reduced the life of my cover. I have had it since...

When my bunks on my King trailer fell off I just removed the bunk boards and left the vertical parts. I then put pvc pipe over the ends. They are slightly angled out but work okay. I have found that I can tie a fender from both ends and positioned between the side post and boat (horizontal...
