I did the same thing on my boat. I purchased two plastic stick on hooks from any home hardware store. Peeled off the sticky backs and threw those away. Used "Marine Goop", most chandlers and Canadian Tire, and stuck the hooks in place. They were perfect, no problems and no holes. 18 months...

Wanted to say Hi to all our C-Brat friends. We so enjoyed our years attending the FH gathering. We still cruise the Gulf Islands and San Juans. Of course, FH being one of our favourites. Weekend of your gathering we will be flying to Ottawa, new g/son has arrived. If you see us out on the...

Still in the same park but moved about 30 meters away. Hope to catch up with you somewhere some day Harvey. Hope to get out again early Oct if the weather co-operates. Martin.

Hi Harvey, You remember the F&C at Comox marina, the little green trailer. Well the same people have moved up to a bigger trailer, a black one. The F&C are better than ever and much more on your plate. Two piece cod and chips $16 Cad. They would give Fish & Fifth a run for their money. Martin.

For a lunch hook where you are not leaving the boat, a 10lb Manson Supreme would work well. Bit of chain and rode, easy to pull up. Martin.

Sent them an email to call you CH 16. Have fun up there Harvey. Martin.

If I can find their email Harvey I'll send them a message to contact you. Cheers, Martin.

When I was in the military we used to 'wash' the whole exterior's of helicopter's in WD 40. So our little C-Dory's windows should be no problem. Martin.

And I thought my system was a no-brainer! I paint a bar on rode or chain. One bar 50ft, two bars 100ft, three bars 150ft.................you get the picture. Martin.

I agree, a lovely boat. But I remember what attracted me to the C-Dory 22. No complicated systems, no thru-hulls, no wood means minimal maint, easy to trailer, good resale value. Martin.

Thank you Colby for all your postings about your trip. I enjoyed the read, especially as I am familiar with most of the ground you covered. I know there is only so much you can cram in to a limited time frame, and you did good. There is still a lot more to see in our neck of the woods. Maybe...

A stop at Heriot Bay on your way back to Campbell River is rewarding. Two marinas, great protected anchorage, pub, great walks. Martin.

Is that ethanol free gasoline? ....................only joking. If you don't have a drop of gasoline or "Goo Gone" handy, good 'ol WD 40 does the same job. Martin.

I put a NOMAD carved sign in there. I knew exactly where it was. Still there 2 years later. 3 years later, gone. Weird eh! Martin.

Now under 18k Cad. Engine has 462 hours. This sale is nothing to do with me. I'm just passing on the info because these little C-Dory's are often sought after. Martin.

Pat, you should enter that pic in any photo competitions. You might win something. I wonder if you could do a deal with BC Ferries in exchange for some free travel or gift vouchers? Martin.

Dodd Narrows (for all you who have not been through before) is a piece of cake. I have been through many times within in 90 mins of slack. That is a 3 hour window. I know other boaters who power through regardless of timing. That being said, do consult your tide & current tables and act...

Check out Nomad's photo albums, C-Brats Gulf Islands 2013. Several of us came through the 'Cut' at half tide. Sometimes only inches below the keel. Several times my chart plotter said I was travelling over someones lawn! That's how tight it was. I had on my 'Extra Strength Depends' for that...

Ooops, typo. It was just under 20k Canadian. Martin.
