Count us in. We had a great time last year. We are flying out to Florida in the morning and will be back in time to make it to the taproom. Retirement is tuff. I don't know how I ever found time to work. Terry

Tom Tom Tom Trust me, Big Susan is just wrong in so many ways. You will live to regret it. Since Susan's initials are SEE, Ann sugested " SEE-C ". Just a thought.

Test photo Thanks Roger. It seemed to work

Martin Thanks for the local info. Would you sign us up for dock space at the Govt. Docks. We are looking forward to the Comox CBTG

Jake I also had a leaking front hatch. When I removed the hatch I found the core was soaked. I dug out all the wet balsa, let it dry out really well, and filled with thickened epoxy. Sealed the hatch real well when I reinstalled. Good luck. Terry ps: I would be carefull using 5200. You may never...

Its all good.

Since Peter has let the cat out of the bag. Yes I am very excited about the Furuno. Just goes to show, the best part of owning a C-Dory is the friends we've made thru the C-Brats. Thank you Peter. Terry

Boris, the 1623 sounds like a good unit. I have an older Garmin 172C that has been very reliable. We do most of our boating in the San Juans & Gulf Is. This summer we are going to Desolation Sound and I have been dreaming about the inside passage. Chip. Recently I was on a friends boat that had...

I'm ready to upgrade to radar. The Furuno 1623 seems to be the base model and has good reviews. Does any one know of a killer deal on one? I have looked on craigslist and ebay for the older model 1621, but they are hard to find. When I do find one, it is snached up quickly, like a C-Dory. Any...

Marty thanks for posting the link. I now have it saved to my favorites. Sam, I will be fallowing your travels closely. I have wanted to do the inside passage for years. Good luck and calm seas.

Pat The Blain to White Rock to Cabbage Is, sounds like a good idea. I'll Google Blain marina and see what the scoop is. Got your schedule, thanks. We might be able to leave a day or two early and cross paths along the way. Ann is still working so it depends on her time off. Terry

George, I'm all over that. Can't pass up a good local microbrew.

Thanks George & Bill I figure it will cost about $500 in gas for the boat, round trip from Bellingham. Sounds like the ferry wouldn't save any money but it may save some time. The run from Nanaimo to Comox looks pretty exposed. Not a lot of places to duck into for shelter. Right now I'm leaning...

We are planning the trip to Comox in July and thinking that it might be a good idea to tow the boat up there. I tried to get a quote from the Port Angles, Victoria ferry system web sight. It seems you have to give up a lot of information and make a reservation to find out how much it costs...

Tom, I tthink your talking about Chemainus, just south of Ladysmith.

There are so many places in the Gulf Is. that we really enjoy. The short list includes, Conover Cove on Wallace Is., Montigue Hbr. and the hippy bus ride to the Hummingbird Pub, Pirates Cove, Ganges on Saltspring, (they have a great Saturday market), Winter Cove, Cabbage Is. & Tumbo Is., Port...

Jan & Stacy Good on you. Wish for you smooth waters, calm winds, and many a sunset at anchor. Will miss seeing you at Friday harbor. Terry & Ann

Pat, Well said. With that, I think its time to close this thread. I am humbled by the outpouring of well wishes, suggestions, and encouragement. I wish I could replay individually to each post, but if you know me, you know I'm not a man of many words. I hope it is sufficient to say THANK YOU...
