We’ve trailered our boat various places over the years but lately it’s getting more stressful and tiring. Do any C-brats know a good boat transport company on the east coast? We’re in Florida and hope to cruise the thousand island area in august.

We’re cruising the Erie Canal and lake Champlain and the camper back gives a lot of extra covered space but when we’re home and in fishing mode it’s stored on land.Cruising yes fishing no.

We had some expired very pistol flares and decided to shoot them off. We live on a farm with no close neighbors and shot them over the pond. We were surprised to find that none of them functioned properly. We keep track of expiration dates but this was an eye opener.

What is the saying? Better late than never lol It has been three years since Simplicity has been on a cruise. Sorry we missed you JennyKatz, but we put in yesterday for three weeks of cruising on the river. Between my mom being down sick and grandkids sick we have had one thing or another each...

We will be on the upper Maine coast in early August. Sorry we'll miss meeting you folks. We've enjoyed reading about and learning from your adventures over the years. Regards, Linda and Alan

We cruised the Apostles a while back and have to admit we were a little intimidated by Lake Superior. Even in summer it can get rough real quick and in the unlikely event that we wound up in the water hypothermia probably wouldn't take long. We were watching weather closely. You have an area...

Our 2006 Honda 135 dies intermittently at low and high RPMS. It can run for hours without a problem and then die. Won't start back up immediately but if you wait a little while starts back up and then could run for hours or a short time.it has 1850 hrs and has been serviced regularly. Computer...

Nice looking boat!

We plan on cruising the finger lakes and Erie starting in early August. Maybe we'll cross paths. Everyone seems to have enjoyed cruising the canal and we're looking forward to it.

We've been cruising the St John's and anchor most nights. We pulled into this marina on the Ortega river and are getting spoiled real fast. It's well protected,has great floating docks, beautiful pool and hot tub, nice head and showers,free laundry, free ice, free loaner bikes and a Publix about...

We'd be interested in a rendezvous in the area. We are cruising the St John's river this month but we keep the boat at the PC marina. Maybe in spring or fall?

I probably shouldn't be too concerned about it. Many of my engine's 1640 hrs have been slow cruising, slow trolling and drift fishing with the engine idling and don't burn oil and have never had milky oil or other problems.

We seem to be slowing down on our cruising lately. When cruising theTenn river in Oct we stayed mostly at about 5 knots.Its a Honda 150 with fuel injection. How long a stretch can we cruise at about 12-1400 rpm without engine damage? We are cruising the St. John's shortly and thought about...

Looks like a good deal. Do I need a charge controller if it's on the boat batteries?

From what I've read the 9 day season was the result of a suit by the environmental defence fund with the backing of commercial fisherman. If the stocks are so low, why let commercial fisherman continue their same harvest?

It's always been amusing to me that the Army Corp got paid to straighten the Kissimmee and now they're getting paid to try to put it back the way it was. That's a smart government agency! Fish eating creek is the only natural inflow to the big lake and it's beautiful. Wouldn't be good for a C...

We used the same technique for our 17.5 kayak. Did the Loop with it on top with no problem. Now we carry two the same way. Keep it simple.

Alan and I are planning a cruise on the St. John's during that time. Would like for you to count us in for those days. Cliff I will pm you for some local info. Thanks Linda

If you are thinking of cutting in v-berth hatches, do it. It is a dirty job, but totally worth the effort if you spend lots of time aboard your C-Dory. -Tim CPelican I did the cut today and got all the foam out. Of course in my case they did a perfect job of filling all the space with foam...

I'm going to attempt to put a hatch for storage in our V berth also. Has anyone had a problem with hatches ( which I assume are somewhat higher ) making the bunk mattress less comfortable? Probably not an issue but curious. Alan
