    AnnaLee has been sold

    Hi Dave and Kate, I just finished having a laugh reading our friend Bobs account of sending the nice message to the wrong AnnaLee/Leigh. I guess it must have left you a little confused for a bit, the message did find its way out to New York though. Rich and Kay

    AnnaLee has been sold

    Just wanted to post a note that the sale of AnnaLee went through yesterday. Tom and LeeAnn drove out from Minnesota a few days ago and after an inspection and sea trial we completed the transaction, they headed back home last night. Great folks with plans to eventually cruise the Great Loop on...

    2006 C-Dory 25 Cruiser-dropping the price

    The 2006 25 Cruiser located in Cassville, NY and listed on this site has not had a great deal of activity so far. I have been in contact with Wefings Marine and plan to tow it down there later this summer. Before doing that I will lower the price and continue to try to sell it myself. Given the...

    Seek recommendations for sources of boat loans

    another way of financing a boat is through a home equity loan, we got a good rate through our credit union plus the tax advantage.

    Erie Canal and The Newark Diner

    First I have heard about the dinner but, as you say, there are plenty other places and no lack of friendly folks to point you in the right direction. The public dock at Newark is great for their accommodations, nice clean showers, laundry, electric, water, pump out station. Usually our first...

    too cold

    I was up at 0530 plowing this morning here in central NY and enough snow continues to fall that I will have to get it done again this afternoon but I just think of our friends in Alaska when I begin to get tired of our stinking wetaher! Rich

A bit early to get her out of winter storage and in the water yet but we keep her at our home and she will be ready...

    V-Berth Insert - 25' Cruiser

    The factory insert is a cushion covered in material to match the berth cushions. It is mounted on a board which sits on those small wooden cleats that are probably mounted on the sides of the vee berth legs. In my opinion, the good is that the cushion gives you more sleeping area, the bad is it...

    Best Erie canal weather window

    Hi Susan and Harry, I'll put my 2 pennies worth in with the understanding that upstate NY weather is unpredictable and certainly not what I consider the nicest this country has to offer. Some years great weather arrives in May for a few weeks before summer rains and cloudy days set in. The...

    Current status of our Inland Waterways

    Rob, Your problems and concerns up north are echoed down here along the Erie Canal. A great deal of fair weather income and visitation is from folks cruising along the canal and stopping over in the small villages along the way. Last season we experienced more lock maintenance problems and...

    Eliminated the kicker portable gas tank.

    Sure nice to see ideas like this one that I would never think of. What fittings did you use at the filter head to go from the threads to the kicker fuel line? Thanks for taking the time to share this one, Rich.

    Chesepeake anchor/East Coast set up?

    I think another bit of good advice for anyone anchoring in mudddy bottoms is to rig a trip line to the anchor to help in retrieving it after it has worked itself deep into the heavy goo. there is usually a hole at or near the base for this purpose. I use to use a bruce on a sailboat we had in...

    Transom Straps vs Over the Gunnels

    When we bought our boat it had a rather light weight long nylon strap over the cockpit attached to the trailer on both sides. I guess it would have prevented up and down movement of the boat on the trailer on a rough surface but did little or nothing for side to side movement. I have replaced it...

    Dog hair

    Like Jim, we also carry a small hand vac on the boat. Not knowing what type/size dog you have this might not work for you but I think the thing that really keeps the dog hair down with us is keeping our small dog's hair cut short. She is a Pomeranian and a short hair cut keeps her more...
