C-BRAT Friends, I may have missed a drop this year in the old Tip Jar on our home page (towards the top left). Not many safe places left anymore. Not many forums that never fail to deliver good advice and camaraderie plus actual real caring when you have a rough spot in life. Our forum is...

A Lake Powell boater is dead after jumping into the lake to assist his child who was struggling to stay above the water. California resident Phil Chiang, 49, rented a ski boat at Wahweap Marina on Thursday for a day touring the lake with his family, according to a release from Glen Canyon...

You may have more than a few feet of gravel only at the end of the Wahweap launch ramp. Better have 4x4 or a back up vehicle with a good tow set up. Bob Jarrard

There is a listing for a 1998 22 with a 75 hp Honda. Engine hours are too low to consider an early repower and the price at $29,500 makes an move today a bit expensive. Is 75 hp enough? The boat is well equipped and in very nice shape for a 1998. The motor has a Permatrim but no trim tabs on the...

Not sure if any of you have seen this post yet, new way to clean your boat of mussles at Lake Powell: [b]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLTwVMhwD5k Bob Jarrard[/i]

C-BRATS, I had offered in a prior post to come alongside anyone of you who did not want to get 2 minutes on the daily news feed in front of the total loss of your life's work or worse yet, the death or injury of a loved one. My parents lost their home in Napa twice to floods. I have friends...

Forum Friends, I am confused as I watch the video news every night of the loss of homes and improvements, not a few but entire towns and neighborhoods. We have a second home in a fire danger area and we spend over a $1000 a month on help to fire-safe our eight acres. Every night I see videos of...

Well C-BRATS, it is about that time of year (I think) when am old man's thoughts turn making a deposit into the Tip Jar on the home page of our forum. I have lots of Forums and YouTube sites that I frequent but none that I appreciate more than this one. As they say, "If you can and will, then so...

I had earlier posted that Patrick Childress has passed in Cape Town from COVID-19 and his wife, Rebecca has posted on their YouTube site a touching and very open telling of what lead up to his death and what has followed. She pulls no punches, shares most intimately and in a way, gives us all a...

-- If you follow Patrick Childress and his wife Rebecca on their YouTube channel as they cruise on a Valiant 40, you may not have heard that Patrick just died from Covid-19. Both he and his wife had the virus but only he did not make it. She is in South Africa and will have a tough row to hoe...

So after all the hoopla, BHP drops all Evinrude/outboard production and will focus only on boats (packages now get Mercs). No soapbox but what about the skipper who just spent 12K on a re-power to a motor no longer made? Guess it is Yammies, Hondas, Tohatsus (same as Hondas in bigger ranges)...

Well, as I was suggesting "A dinghy by any other name is still a dinghy." to quote Shacklespear, I found this little gem of a dink for sale in New Zealand: https://octenders.co.nz/ Bob Jarrard

Have you noticed that the for sale listings of C-Dories has really slowed up? Guess they are like gold in hard times and then it is not easy to sell a luxury (for some but a necessity for others) a C-22 or C-25 when folks are "hunkered down". Bob

So this C-22 Open has three motors, two 60 HP Yammies and an 8 HP center mounted. I thing the transom has a metal plate to beef it up. Can any 22 or 25 take three motors like this? Criagslist link for picutres: https://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/boa/ ... 58177.html Bob Jarrard

All, this is a pretty good deal at 14K for a C-22 in Alaska. Smaller motor but you don't get everything at 14K! Bob Jarrard https://juneau.craigslist.org/boa/d/22- ... 72810.html

A bit of info/input if you will. There is a Toland 18-8 for sale here on our site that has what may be the original 1994 Johnson 70 HP 2 stoke which is just under the max 75 HP plate rating and which likely weighs in under 275 pounds (and perhaps as little as 238 pounds). New TLDI/Etecs at 75 HP...

Dear Site Managers, If there are any places, ways or parts of C-BRATS where those who would like to come along side and help out, please consider a post of what might be available. Vacant Moderator position, cleaning the clubhouse bathroom, or whatever. And if I forgot to mention it this...
