Hi, Berry and Barb. Have fun catching crabs and cruising around in Crabby Lou. I'm glad you bought her. She's a fine little craft, and I hope to see you on the water one day. Last boat, eh? Well, I've heard that a time or two. Careful about excessive exposure with our kind, as C-Dory sizing up...

When I saw this post's headline I wondered if Team P could possibly have given up chasing crabs. Of course not! Good to hear, and your revised Birch Bay crab collection system sure sounds like fun. Cocktails and conversation above while the critters crawl into your cage below. Or a slow cruise...

Gosh BillE, that's not what Foggy's comments sounded like to me. But I have to admit that's the first time I've been introduced to codswallop. Even the dictionary couldn't set me straight. Foggy's sure right about the twits who plow, making a huge wake trying to squeeze another knot or two out...

Wow, Marty, thanks. I didn't see your 3/4/2016 post about Bambina, and that happened to be her 27th birthday. Now she's in the very capable and appreciative hands of MikeR. We sure love our C-Dory's. :love

Starcraft Tom, same here--if I hear the governor's whistle signaling kickoff.

Da Nag, I'd never call you a dim bulb. :idea

Rob, thanks for stepping forward and offering to promote a gathering down your way. Harvey, I also was thinking about you when I wrote that last night. I bet Harvey would be interested in a cruise down there, thought I. Well aware that a even a meek rendezvous suggestion thrusts one into the...

Hey, Problemadela Rob, we should have a rendezvous in Oro Bay some day. Nisqually Reach and that whole area is beautiful. Hobbes is just a few miles south, you're just 'round the rock, and maybe some Oregon Brats would find an Olympia splash-in attractive. I've enjoyed the South Sound since '66...

I find what Daybreak said to be true as well. My C-Dorys have dictated RPM's, and I obey. I value comfort over speed. I throttle back and change my angle if necessary because I refuse to pound. Don't buy a C-Dory if it's frequently choppy and you want to be first to the fish. But she'll treat...

Byrdman, I'm sorry to hear that. I wish him well at this difficult time. Brock

Bud, that's beautiful. They both are. And I'm sorry for your loss of Louie, your Golden Boy. Two years later I still miss my Buster cat. He was my Buster buddy. :dog :cat

Pat, that's my feeling as well, that the governor may well extend stay at home past May 4th. But I feel as does Tosca, that I'm in for regular scheduling and later this year if rescheduled. If you build it, I will come. :cat

Yes, thanks, Harvey. Keith, your last name is Foote? No brainer, dude: Foote Loose. I plan on occupying a FH slip unless handcuffed at home, and I'm optimistic that the threat of COVID-19 will pass. Hopefully sooner than later. Nonetheless, this is a nasty virus that has killed thousands, hurt...

That's really cool, Joe. I'm really happy for you, and I look forward to seeing you and your boat here and there in the Salish Sea. That's a really good feeling you're feeling. :cocktail

I'm just speechless to hear that completely unexpected news. Nonetheless, thank you for letting us know, Dora~Jean. I had hoped to see and talk to him at a future date, maybe when he returned to visit, or live. I just find that so hard to believe, and I feel so sorry for his family--and the...

George, your Stella Blue will be a rare addition. Maybe others can, but I can't recall the last time a 26' Venture or Cape Cruiser joined us for a group gig. Prepare to be inspected! :thup

I imagine we also can agree with B~C.

Harvey, thank you for contacting NMI and setting that up. And boat stuff! Who doesn't need more boat stuff? Daybreak, I haven't launched at Brownsville, but I've stayed there overnight several times over the years. My impression always was positive.

Tyboo, that's the exact top speed I reached in my 23' Venture. :hot

A Friday Harbor fix. Steve, I like that. I needed one a few weeks ago so I walked on the FH ferry to hang out with Popeye and various aviary critters. Not many people on that very windy, cloudy day. But Friday's fun any time of year. Jeff and Diane, happy you can come again this year. Jeff will...
