    Hey C-Brats, Does anybody have the name of the town where the gathering will be so I can Google it and map it. I am not sure if I will make it but would like to plan the trip. Old pal (dog) Teddy has been much better. She had Lymes, and pancreitis, and has an enlarged heart but since she has...

    Anyone use a 2WD w/ 4rear wheeels to haul boat up wet ramp

    Well that about sums it up. Popular opinion is 2WD an't going to cut it on a steep wet ramp. Oh well. (I really liked that F350 7.3 turbo). LOL

    Anyone use a 2WD w/ 4rear wheeels to haul boat up wet ramp

    LOL. Thanks. I know that when I pull my CD-22 out of the water at Beaufort NC ramp, It would not be possible without my 4WD. By the end of the day the ramp is soaked from people hauling their boats out. You have to be careful just walking on the ramp. I tried 2WD mode one day just for fun...

    Anyone use a 2WD w/ 4rear wheeels to haul boat up wet ramp

    My neighbor has a 2000 F350 super duty w/ 7.3L turbo diesel. It only has 79,000 miles and has all service records. I was thinking about selling my 2010 F-150 4.6L gas engine 4WD Super Crew cab, and buying his F350. I could sell my truck and buy his, and put 10K in my savings account. His truck...

    First outing.

    I loved the write up. Brought back many fond memories of the Neuse river, Ocracoke, traveling down Adams creek to Beaufort. Truly a beautiful area. I spent 11 years in that area on my sailboat. I kept my boat at Minnesotte Marina and it was like a dream. I can't wait to be able to do it all...

    No boating but worked on my 1969 Honda Sandcast CB750

    My dog Teddy has been down in the dumps lately. Can't get my self to force her to go boating. Her Back legs are bad enough now I have to lift her to get her to go out side down the ramp I made on the front steps. This too will pass in time. In the mean time while the C-Dory 22 sits under cover...

    What do you do with your truck and trailer when crising?

    After my experience with my Florida trip I was wondering what you do with your trucks and trailers while you are cruising for a week or to once you travel to a distant location?

    Florida trip bad ending

    Thanks again C-Brats. What a great family I wasn't born into, LOL. After I sat down last night and drank a few beers I realized how blessed I am. I have a safe home with a roof over my head, food water. I could have been born in a 3rd world nation and be picking through a garbage dump for food...

    Florida trip bad ending

    Life is strange. When I was 23 yrs old I used to throw 140 lbs of WWII TNT over the back of a rolling ship with a wet wave washing deck. 70 lbs of TNT in each Haversack over my shoulders with a 6 FT fuse on each one. I did it for 8 hrs a day. I never thought twice about the danger\ I Made 4...

    Florida trip bad ending

    Thanks Thataway. Teddy's back legs are very bad. I have to lift her to go to the bathroom. She was in bad shape the whole drive down in the truck. She is my best friend now that my wife has passed away. I don't think she would make the 11 drive again. I will be fine and have my day in the sun.

    Florida trip bad ending

    Thanks C-Dory Family, I am putting the place up for sale. Would never feel good about leaving anything valuable there again. Don't need it. After my old best buddy Teddy (dog) Passes away I know know I can trailer my C-Dory down south for the winter stay in a marina and live on it. Don't need...

    Florida trip bad ending

    After all these months I finally got my courage and headed to my trailer on 2 acres in central west coast Florida. It took a week to pack every thing up. I checked the Resilient and trailer out real good and headed out 5:30 Am on the 13th. My plan was to go to my place and put the C-Dory in the...
