I also like leaving a light on in the cabin. I know this may not be an option but long term is a better solution. The dri-ez will help...

    Interior cleaning

    Goof off works well. I saw the detailer at the factory using that, but I don't think it will get the glue.... Great for other stuff, paint, Teak oil (nest project) etc.... C-You later

    Collapsible Shrimp / Crab traps for my TC

    Des Moines, WA (just south of Seattle) Like I said, have seen them at shows and they fold nicely into a compact bundle. No one except the manufacturer has attested to their ability (that I know of) Agree, very spendy, hence why I haven't purchased yet, but just thought I'd share, always...

    Fort warden state park

    I have always been a big fan of the Point Hudson Marina, facilities are a little old and make you feel like your back in boot camp at times but the marina is situated essentially in the heart of downtown and can be a very quick walk into Ft.
