    tomcat vs other cdorrys for offshore?

    Thanks Bob! I never dreamed a canoe could have three masts and four sails? I guess if it is 'pointy' at each end and can be paddled, it's a canoe?

    tomcat vs other cdorrys for offshore?

    Merriam-Webster Dictionary pretty much nails the definition of off shore.....not! Quote from Merriam: "Definition of offshore 1 :from the shore :seaward; also :at a distance from the shore 2 :outside the country :abroad" Or from some of the fishing web pages: "The biggest difference between...

    Flu shots

    FWIW My wife had shingles on her forehead that moved towards her eyes. Bed ridden and in severe pain but did not lose her eye sight. At the time, shingle shots were not covered by insurance so I gladly 'ordered' and paid the $285 for the shot. I never ever want to go through what she had to...

    Cordless Drill and Impact driver to remove ligh nuts

    In my 'golden' years I prefer using my trigger finger versus brute force. Heck, at my age, I won't even use a screwdriver without it being powered by Lithium-Ion, albeit my much younger service techs were the same way :roll:

    C-Dory 25 Windshield Wipers

    Thank you 'journey on' for this thread. Saved me time and money. Very impressed by the fit and quality of the Ongaro motor not to mention the two speed setup and stainless shaft. I also ordered the stainless steel pantograph arms and 12 inch blade. Wow! Talk about heavy duty! The arm uses the...

    Cordless Drill and Impact driver to remove ligh nuts

    I carry a 36 volt DeWalt 1/2 inch impact wrench when towing. Very impressed with it's capability and it has never let me down. FWIW I Recently used the wrench to remove a seriously stuck 30 year old bath tub drain. Wrapped a close fitting impact socket with duct tape after a $75 special...

    Tennessee River Cruise and Hurricanes

    Vicki and I are interested but see South Carolina just declared emergency status, so pretty much in wait-and-see mode. On a side note, I went down to the marina yesterday to move my Tomcat to the boat launch and found the starboard outboard all the way up. I suspect the manual trim/tilt...

    09/07 - 09/10 - Mississippi River Gathering 2017

    Just saw the Weather channel showing one arrow track pointing at South Carolina and one towards the gulf coast. Sustained winds have increased to 185 mph and it's still anyone's guess on when it turns north in the next five days. Not good, especially given a Category 5 hurricane is 500 times...

    09/07 - 09/10 - Mississippi River Gathering 2017

    We are going to have to cancel also. We have a farm in SC, and hurricane Irma is just to big to ignore. I spent three weeks in south Florida in the aftermath of hurricane Andrew and to say it was challenging is an understatement. Bob, please let us know if you decide to go ahead with the...

    TomCat Propeller Rotation

    Congrats on your new Tomcat and I am envious! I have a 2007 Tomcat with Honda 150’s and I absolutely love it. While I may have owned too many boats, I have to admit the Tomcat is the most forgiving, capable, and fun boat I have ever owned. As I look back on my two plus years of ownership I am...

    Recovering from double knee replacement

    Eight months since knee replacement and I love my new knee. Only regret was putting up with knee pain for too long. Should have done it at least a year earlier.
