    Best very small dinghy motor

    I have a Honda 2. It is noisy and the gas tank is small but I've had it for 10 years including a 3-4 year period of inactivity and it started up after that on the first pull.

Most of my family still lives in Iowa but everyone of them has said they'd move to the West Coast if they could find the right situation. Iowa City is one of the...

    Would you buy a C-Dory on sale?

    I just got my letter from Matt at Kitsap in regard to the special offer on (in my case) the CD-25. He says Triton Marine will no longer support orders placed by Kitsap Marina.
