What happened to summer? We are still wandering homeward and had great weather until today. Yesterday we were driving in 85 deg weather and this morning we had 34 deg with mixed rain and snow! Makes me want to turn around and head south again. We had a wonderful time at Lake Powell and many...

Harvey, I think the wear pattern in the gelcoat is caused by the fact that the bottom of the boat changes planes along its length and therefore wears one edge of the bunk forward and the opposite edge aft. At least that is my experience on my 22. I would still stick with the carpet. On my...

Pat, We had this discussion during the Lake Powell trip. It seems to me that your problems may not be the prop. Most of the 22's reported little or no change in performance. I got exactly the same speed and rpm's I get at sea level or home at 2400 feet elevation. If there were any...

George, The 22 cruiser floor is well below the waterline. Even the newer models with the molded in floor I believe are still slightly below waterline.

Harvey, Cypress might be available in the south but I doubt you could find it in the northwest. Purpleheart 2x6's would be very expensive. If it was me I would buy pressure treated fir from a lumber dealer where you can search through the stack. Look for straight boards with as few knots as...

Pat, That was supposed to be a picture of the smoked salmon. After I finished the post I deleted the picture from my album. I thought it would stay in the post, I guess I thought wrong. At any rate, I will be bringing a goodly supply.

This is for Daydream Pat: Lake Powell preparations are complete. Heading south Sat. See you on the lake.

Salmon Fisher, I mounted mine between the engines, 4 inches right of centerline. This seems to be about right to avoid turbulence from the keel. I get fairly good reading on plane and excellent readings at trolling speeds. I have a Lowrance "skimmer" type transducer.

Mounting transducer with twin Hondas.

Lyle, We fished out of Masset the whole time. We did cruise over the Langara Island one day. The southern end is loaded with high-end fishing resorts. We watched about 50 resort boats engaged in "combat fishing" off one Coho Point. If we do it again I will schedule half the time at Masset...

I just added pictures to my album. We had a great fishing trip. We didn’t catch large numbers of chinook but the few we did catch were huge. We had a 42 and a 36lb-the two largest chinook I have caught on the C-Dory. We also had the largest halibut I have caught at 68lb. The coho fishing...

Lots of talented carvers in Masset

Local mass transit

Tried to cut the entrance marker short. Floated off ok when tide came in

view of launch ramp from the water

What you could be rafted to at the govt dock

Free launch ramp-very difficult to load due currents and wind
