Gerry: Thanks for the Active Captain suggestion. Yes, there are lots of rated places. Great site. LesR: Thanks also for your suggestions. We're going to check them out. Best wishes, Bob Foss

Hello C-Brats: We are going to trailer Sal Salis Vita to lower Kentucky Lake the second week in October. One of our favorite activities aboard is to anchor out. Can the Brats suggest any great spot(s) to put down the hook in that part of Kentucky Lake, and/or lower Lake Barkley? It...

Hi Karl: If I may, what was the issue with the Garhauer hoist? Was the dinghy too heavy, or was the geometry not working for you? Bob

Hello Peter: Here's a link to a thread from last year discussing heads. It might give you a little more info to ponder. http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t=14696

Hello All: We want to simplify loading the boat on the trailer. Lori doesn't like trailer maneuvering, so I handle that. She and the pups are, therefore in the boat. She'd like to simplify centering the boat on the trailer, especially when it's windy, or there's current, or other boat...

Our calendar just arrived, and the pictures are awesome. It was very well packaged, and the quality is terrific. It's nice to see some images of "warm", since the temperature is currently 14 degrees, with a wind chill below zero. Spring is coming. Think Spring!

Hello Bill and Brenda: Thanks for your nice comment, and glad you enjoyed the post. Boats should be for using. That's one of the most appealing aspects of a trailerable cruiser, and exactly why we bought Sal Salis Vita. On our trawler, it could literally take days (or weeks) to reach a...

Hi Roger: Since we don't have the AirHead, I can't comment on it specifically. On the Natures Head, there is a trap door, that opens easily with the flip of a lever. We engage the lever before "commencing business". That way the solid matter simply drops into the treatment bin. None of it...

Hi Jeff and Deb: We did not put paper in the composting bin, although there's nothing wrong with that. It is my understanding that the composting process takes a little longer with added paper. If you're using it all the time, I don't necessarily see this as a problem, though. It will mean a...

Tow vehicle.

Launch ramp. It was wide, and seemed to have a long enough apron so the trailer wheels didn't go off the end. There was a dock around to the left, but it was pretty shallow. We used the Marina office dock.

Trailer parking area for launch ramp. Sal Salis Vita's trailer in the foreground.

Access ramp to "L" Dock. With low lake levels it was pretty steep. The pups would sort of "ski" down. Front paws would "slide", and the back ones "walk".

"Business" aspects.

No, not a writer. (But thanks for the compliment). Actually, I'm an Optometrist. Thirty-three years at the same job. Probably too many hours in a dark room. Glad you enjoyed the posts. BTW, we do have pics for the head, just haven't put them up yet.
