My boat is at Puget Marine on Johnson Point, stored indoors on a trailer. Would love to hire somebody to do an exterior detail. -Greg

Where is a good place to view the Blue Angels from the Sound. I have no interest in going to Lake Washington. Also....I'll be on a Coast Guard Aux. patrol Saturday night and Sunday morning, around the Tacoma area. If you see a white Campion with CG ensign, give me a friendly wave. We will...

I've used all kinds of grills and stoves for boating purposes...Weber, butane, and the mounted kind. I have one on my Devlin. But....the easiest, most efficient setup is the $17 George Foreman grill. Just plug it into my 1500w inverter, turn the engine on, and 5 mins. later, a perfectly...

Thanks to this forum, I learned of a nice "one the hard" deal at LaConner marina. They are storing my Devlin for $108/mo. That beats the moorage at Anacortes of $240/mo. Nice thing is that they will launch the boat 5 times a month without a charge. Also, if a freeze is coming, then they will...

I have the opportunity to make a 4 night voyage in my 6 knot trawler next week. Monday night will be spent at Sydney. What would you recommend for the next two nights in the Gulf Island region for Tuesday and Weds. night. Thursday, we return to Anacortes. We prefer to dock and hike/explore...

The white seat pad for my I/O housing has a small tear, unfortunately not along the seam. It's about 1/4 inch. in length. What product is recommended for cosmetically sealing this tear? Thanks! -Greg

We're on the hook in Quartermaster Bay, getting set to deliver our 27' Devlin to Kitsap Marina to sell it. Signal Yacht Brokers is offering us free summer moorage in return for a listing. That alone will save us $500. Such beautiful weather we enjoyed this long weekend. If it's our swan song...

We spent the week doing a Bremerton to Hood Canal and back trip. Moored at Kingston, Pleasant Harbor, and then one too many nights at Port Ludlow, due to weather. Day 3 at Ludlow, NOAA is calling for SCA but the wind hasn't picked up yet and we decide to make a run to Foulweather Bluff, then...

As some of you know, one of my boats is a 27' Devlin trawler. Due to lack of use on our part, plus lack of charter income, we decided to sell it this Fall. However, as we sit here on it in sunny Port Ludlow, we are having 2nd thoughts. A 50/50 partnership would be more ideal. We only use it...

It appears we're going to be cruising the Hood Canal next week with a starting point at Belfair. We'll end it at Brownsville, near Bremerton. What are the "can't miss" stops along the Hood Canal, aside from a certain nuclear sub base. (I hear they serve 3 hots and a cot). -Greg

We're wanting to haul out 27' Devlin with full keel and inboard from Brownsville (near Bremerton) to Belfair (on the Hood Canal). It's a one way, 20 mile trip. We will pay all costs/fees plus your time for this trip, so if you have suitable trailer and want to make some C-cash, please contact...

In my Campion, I have a simple water system.....no hot water. Just flip the faucet knob and the water pump engages. It's always powered. The brand name of the pump is Togmaz or something like that (it's buried). Anyway...during the last freeze, I drained the water tank completely through...

For those of you on an internet, air card connection, you might want to try Pandoraradio.com. No commercials...quick registration....and free. Basically, you create your own radio station by giving them a name of an artist, like Gordon Lightfoot. Wah-lah....up comes Gordy along with James...

The last weekend of March, we are in need of a tow on a suitable trailer. 30 miles from Brownsville to Belfair, one way. I'd cover your gas plus $100 for your time. The boat is my 27' Devlin, inboard. I suspect a trailer that handles a 25' boat could handle it. Thanks! -Greg

I'm wanting to haul my 22' Campion and, at times, a 2000 lb. pop up camper. I'm figuring combined weight is 8000 lbs. fully loaded. The 1/2 ton truck that intrigues me is a loaded '02 GMC 1500 Sierra Denali, 6.0, with quadrasteer (a feature I really want). It's rated as having a 10,000 towing...

I may be in the market this spring for a cat like this. Weather permitting, I might look at it as early as Saturday. Would you say 65k is a fair price for this TC 24? From what I've read, the sloping front windows can create a greenhouse effect. Can that be solved with some aftermarket...

My wife and I are taking advantage of some low cruise rates out of Miami to the Bahamas and back, around Valentine's Day. The night prior to boarding will be spent in Miami. I'm trying to zero in on a condo or decent motel that's in safe, walking distance to the cruise ships. Is the South...

Thanks to a recommendation on this board, I've been monitoring www.marinetraffic.com for some time, comparing it's data to what I see from my house. (We have a view of the Columbia River). So far, I've been quite impressed with it's real time accuracy. Today, we had an experience of using it...

Normally I put our 10 foot Livingston Dinghy on the finger dock for winter storage but this year, the marina is enforcing a revenue-creating no-no. They said I must either put it in the water, behind my boat, or they'll happily store it for $25/mo. Question...if I leave it in the water and it...
