Great to get back to our wonderful Nation. Came back to a frantic flurry of frustration and confusion as my flight from Bush Houston to ft lauderdale FL was canceled as were all flights. Also missed my boat ride aboard NCL Escape from 7-14Jan17. I sure needed the rest after meeting the rest of...

Great article Bill. I sold Jabez in 2003 so more than likely trip was in either 2001 or 2002. Thanks for leaving out the part about me hitting the big metal channel bouye that had drifted cross channel due to the previous weeks high waters. Man that was a very dark night and was April the...

So So True. Terrible happening in Orlando for sure and a lot of pain and hurting families. My thoughts and prayers out to all effected. Crazy media pounding it out inaccurately as our worst violence and attack on our soil... least we forget what we did to ourselves, Americans against...

OK I have now bought this boat back from Clif. Will begin over with some more modifications. Will cut-n-paste some other post about this...on other current links. Bringing this hull back to the Pacific North West in July this year for some summer/fall boating/fishing/shrimping/crabbing and...

Looking for Toland family history and beginning of the C-Dory history....or Marben Marine as they were called possibly in their early days. Any help? Own again the last 18' C-Dory made, hull #14 and just wanted to put together some documented company and family history. Thanks.

I missed this a few years back. Looking for the Toland family history and the beginning of our C-Dory boats in the documents section and this just needs to be brought back up for several reasons. Thanks Charlie for your time and service...and for sure supporting Dusty with the extra efforts...

Yes I do plan to come up your way Rick and Donna at some point upon my return to the PNW this summer/fall time frame. Hey Bob! Would love to see yall again soon too. Will again help with the potato harvest mid September thru October then head back to TN for the winter months. During...

Thanks Larry. When do you and Miss Nancy plan to head north on the waters?

Hey Crew! Thanks for the replies. Great to get back and can not wait to get back to some gatherings, trips and water adventures with yall again. Going to start a little Catalina research as far as cities/ramps/tow vehicle and trailer storage possibilities as to allow me to possibly make that...

Enjoy your trip. In order I have enjoyed Cracker Barrel, WalMart, a Church where I had been a member, and Truck Stops...but a lot of trucks and noise there. We started a C-Brat Gathering in Mt. Juliet TN with 6-8 boats in a local camp ground due to a weather change...15-30mph winds and temps...

Lurking.... Pondering....

Many Great times and events on the Heartland Rivers and lakes...several with Bill and Miss El. Bought C-Byrd back so into a C-Dory for my 4th time....2nd time on Hull # 14 of the 18 Angler. My how electronics and toys have changed since I last rigged a boat for "myself" ....back in 2006. A...

Those that say a happiest day of boat ownership is the day you sell a boat....well...they just bought the wrong boat to start with..... and...since the first day I sold C-Byrd to Clif I have missed her many times over. A lot of you knew and met "Momma Byrd" during either gatherings at our...

Good Day Bob! Please do not underestimate the wakes in the ICW particularly if there area a few boat shows lined up as those guys are just getting big boats from one location to another and care zero about anyone else on the ICW..."their" water route between the shows. Experienced this during...

I have been doing well Tyboo Mike! Looking forward to getting back up to the NW area and waters in May.

Good Day to all and Happy Easter Season. Had a reason to get on the site and it has been a while. Wanted to wish my extended C-Brat family a Happy and Blessed Easter. The below photo has a very deep meaning to me. We have just sold "Mamma Byrd's" lake house which was the base camp for several...

Easter 2009

Need some local input. Has been a while since I have been on the site. 10,500 post actually. Is it just my computer or is something wrong with EQ Marine....and or their site. Be back up yalls way in May. Byrdman

Have had the pleasure of traveling on both the CD25s & RF-246's. Post 1997 I believe is the year that Bob changed the RF-246 hull...in that..the keel was much deeper & wider. The post 1997 changes were basically made as to allow Bob Rosborough to build a great 25' working hull capable of...

Enjoy the Apalachicola area....and be sure to dive into some oysters! Best in the world that I have found! Byrdman
