    ICW Jacsonville North

    Thanks to all for your most valuable info, here and in a couple PMs. We're getting pretty excited about seeing some new stuff. And longer trips in the future. One more question. Some very experienced C-Dory 22 cruisers who recently spent time on the Georgia ICW have warned me about the extreme...

    ICW Jacsonville North

    Jim, Bob - Thanks for responding. Jim, agree that Jacksonville to Savannah and back is doable in 4 days, but would like to save that trip for when could spend more time when we got there. So still looking for a good destination with a marina on the ICW somewhere around half way up Georgia...

    ICW Jacsonville North

    Hi Folks - Patty and I are planning a short cruise on the ICW from Jacksonville north. Say, 4 days total, up and back. These are new waters to us, so the voice of experience from fellow C-Brats would be most appreciated. For example: How much should we plan for no wake zones and traffic to...

    Apalachicola gathering

    Thanks again to Marc, Anita, Ron, Robert, and the rest of Wefings crew for another fantastic gathering. No other business I've known has been such good people and real friends to all who come their way. Outstanding food. Hanging out with nice folks. Messing about in boats. Always a good time...

    10/19 - 10/21 - Gulf Coast Gathering 2012

    Let me jump in late (as usual) to add a big Many Thanks from Patty and me for another outstanding gathering. Each year we appreciate what Marc, Anita, and the Wefings gang do even more, and enjoy connecting with old and new C-Dory friends.

    10/19 - 10/21 - Gulf Coast Gathering 2012

    Oh boy, getting close. So .... Where is the Gathering gathering? We missed last year's in the new venue and don't know where to find the party. Trailering in late-ish, after work on Friday, and launching at the city basin. Then what? Thanks!

    Local info please, FL Northeast Coast ICW

    Astor to Naples sounds like a very cool trip, Jim. Unless you know of some ditch that I don't, sounds like you'll be heading way north on the St. John's, way south on the ICW to the St. Lucie canal, across the state via Lake Okeechobee/ Caloosahatchee River, and back down the coast to Naples...

    Local info please, FL Northeast Coast ICW

    Hi guys - Congrats on that Venture. She's pretty. Your suggestion on doing the St. Johns instead is a good one. It's one of our favorite cruises. Been from Jacksonville down to Sanford on various occasions, but mostly launch at Astor where we now know Mike lives. Will PM on possibly...

    Local info please, FL Northeast Coast ICW

    Hi Folks - We're taking Fishwife (CD 22) for a long weekend's cruise later this month on the Florida ICW from St. Augustine south to, oh, maybe Cape Canaveral. No particular destination. Just sampling some new waterfront. Would appreciate recommendations on restaurants, marinas, &...

    Florida C-brats, Ocklawaha River info please

    OK, all you kind souls trying to get an answer for me can call off the hunt. Guess that would be you, Mike. A half dozen phone calls got me to someone at the Florida DEP who says the Corp of Engineers just finished a big project to clear the Ocklawaha a couple moths ago and it's probably as...

    Florida C-brats, Ocklawaha River info please

    Boy, that was quick! Many thanks, Mike. Did not know or had forgotten (turned 60 this year) that you relocated to Astor. Been there several times as our launch point for the annual, infamous Memorial Day bash at Silver Glen. Hope to see you next time.

    Florida C-brats, Ocklawaha River info please

    Hi fellow brats - Used to be the Ocklawaha River in central FL could be navigated all the way from the Chain of Lakes to the St. Johns River via Rodman Reservoir and a remnant of the Cross-Florida Barge Canal. Should be a neat African Queen sort of experience in our 22. But last time we had...

    10/23-10/25 - 4th Annual Gulf Coast Gathering

    Just had to add a GIANT thanks from Patty and me to Anita and Marc, Sherry and John for another great gathering. Aside from all the great food and playing boats, it's gotten to feel like a family reunion. Except you C-Brats are more fun to hang out with :). We'll look forward to joining...

    10/23-10/25 - 4th Annual Gulf Coast Gathering

    A bit late getting to the sign-up sheet, as I am in most things. Patty and I are looking forward to meeting up with everyone again this year. A spot in John's Marina would be our first choice for staying close to the action, i.e. where I can get to the food even when I shouldn't be driving the...

    10/17 - 10/19 - Gulf Coast Extravaganza

    Excellent news, Tim. Sounds like the timing could be right for us to tag along on Time Bandit's maiden voyage. You bring the maiden. Skip
