After seeing what happened to Lake Powell, courtesy of quagga muscles, I’m thankful that states are inspecting boats as they cross borders.

Bob, you’re welcome! Indeed it does have quite a history. I bought another copy of the book about Bert Loper, and I’m reading it now.

Joe, while a CDory does have a sharp entry, there is very little dead rise aft of the house. You slow down, or you visit your dentist to get fillings replaced. That said, they’re wonderful boats. If you want to go fast in the chop, look for a Cutwater or a Sea Sport

I agree with Bob regarding gas, but recommend going with the highest horsepower the boat is rated to carry. I have a Gregor 14.5 with a Honda 15. At altitude, or with a load, it’s not enough to plane.

After reading a story about extremists on Whidbey, are they starting their own navy?

Use non ethanol, your boat will thank you for it.

asuaviator, it happened to my boat as well. I did raise the bunks, and I’m pretty sure the damage happened at the ramp when loading in chop. I think it was Jody that suggested pads epoxied to the trailer frame, and believe that would be helpful as well.

If you haven’t already, you might let the seller know that you would be interested at the lower price if he changes his mind.

Hi Pete, I looked at the ad, and the boat looks in fairly decent condition. It will be a slow boat if loaded for cruising, especially if at altitude. The electronics are dated, and might need replacing. The trailer, if not corroded should do the job, but a tandem axle for long distances...

Does anyone have experience with this product? Purportedly will not strip wax. https://www.jamestowndistributors.com/p ... etail/8132 I’m considering it for use on my Northern Lite truck camper.

Check with Pat and Patty Anderson. I believe they removed their bulkhead. Edit: http://www.c-brats.com/modules.php?set_ ... _photo.php

Pat, you will like the Northern Lite. We have the NO 10-2. You will find that you’re going to feel top heavy as compared to the Alaskan. If there is too much sway, consider air bags to level it out, and a Helvig BigWig sway bar! Congratulations to you and Patty!

Profanity is the linguistic crutch of an inarticulate @$$****.

Bob, another option would be a spreadsheet. The problem with either a spreadsheet or a database is someone would have to take ownership to control input.

Lloyd, the newer 22’s have a raised level floor over the cockpit. On the centerline it is approx 3” above the hull, if my memory is correct.

Per news(?) outlets, there could a Suez created toilet paper shortage, too. Rumor is the bulk ships carrying paper fiber are wiped out. :roll:
