I just saw a warning on the Glen Canyon web site advising people to always wear water shoes because of tiny and sharp mussel shells. Not only is there a chance of cuts, but also the potential for an infection/sepsis. In 2015, we had one member helicoptered out with sepsis, so it can happen. Steve

Bob, I get up several times as well. Age related :oops: , and I also check location bearings.

I had the same rational when I bought my boat, but 13 years later and now in my 70s, it’s going to be my next big gear purchase. An ambulance ride because my back hurt so bad I couldn’t get off the floor helped with the decision.

Thanks everyone. At current water levels, my guess is the ramp is a good 400 yards long. I guess the best thing is to make a choice when I get there, but it sounds doable.

Sort of related to towing. I’m thinking of leaving the camper on the truck for the trip to and from Lake Powell. While I have launched the boat with the camper on, I have always backed down all the way on relatively short ramps. At Powell, the ramps are huge, and most people drive down, make...

Chad, you’re best option for retrieving is from the deck. I recommend you find a slough with a minimum amount of current. The slough at Martin Island is an excellent choice. I’m sure you know to be very careful to not let the rode wrap around the lower unit whe you’re in a current. A lot...

Brent, I hope to know this coming week.

Just a heads up. I may not be able to attend LP this year. We have some real estate issues that could possibly keep us closer to home.

Hola Pedro, Up river in the little town of Cathlamet, WA is a nice little marina. Not too far from Astoria. The CBrats used to have get togethers (CBGTs) there in the past. Steve

Look up Pat and Patty Anderson’s trip from last year. They have a 25, but the blog will cover many of your questions. http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t=24996

Any town with a traffic light is too big!

Harvey, if all you have to do is splash the boat and go, then yes. If you’re getting things out of the truck, readying the boat, then I’d take a rest day...
