Here's a photo of the truck that the factory recomends towing the boat with.

Does Caryn know about this ? :wink:

John, Do more than see one first - find a way to go out on one first! It says a lot for the boats that people buy them without going out on them, but it really helps to get out on one. For example, my wife and I jumped in and bought a 16, my wife had been out in one, thanks to a local C-Brat...

Started the weekend at Twin Bridges in Anacortes - ran into a couple of C-Brat Houligans who roughed us up with friendly handshakes, smiles and lots of good advice (Joe and Ruth, R-Matey). Beautiful sunny day - out through Deception Pass. Then once we got through the pass ran directly into a...

Why would it change with the same batteries? I have not heard the noise recently, but the first few times I went out on the boat it was very distinct, almost like a ticking clock, and loud enough to be heard from the helm.

We tried the downrigger later the next day for the first time, the battery was dead before that. I'll keep looking around to see what could be draining it - I'm pretty sure all the electronics are hooked up to the house battery so that's why I'm surprised the start battery was dead. The VSR...

I ran some tests on my batteries today with the boat running - per Chris's advice, with the engine running normally. Start/House ON - House 13.44 Start 13.36 Start/House ON Parallel ON - House 13.32 Start 13.32 After running for around 40 minutes out in the water, with the boat idleing, I...

Actually I cant really turn off various electronics since they are all combined into one - GPS, Radio, Chartplotter. I can turn off the depth sounder, once while underway I turned it off and then back on - it locked up the entire unit - taking out the radio. Had to switch the batteries off/on to...

I wonder if my problem with the starter battery going dead, and a possible bad battery switch have anything to do with excess static on the radio? About two weeks ago, for the entire weekend, the radio was almost consistantly blasting out static, turned the squelch all the way up and the volume...

This Saturday when we got ready to leave the dock our battery was dead. We have the Optimax bluetop batteries, both house and starter. Both brand new this year (along with the boat). I turned on the parallel switch and then tried, the engine started. Then turned the parallel off and we went out...

Left Saturday morning from Twin Bridges, Anacortes. Moored for the first time at James Island - really need to get a kayak or dingy so that we can make it into shore - either that or try beaching. Got into Friday Harbor as the Sun was setting - docked up front. Sunday - over to Jones Island -...

With our "little" 19 - the harbormaster at Friday Harbor told us "Heck, even on the 4th of July we'll have room for you." I think the reservations fill up fast - but they still have open space for drop-ins? Tom

What is the recomended speed? 1 to 3 knots? Whats the max speed? Do you go with the current? Tom

Waiting for this topic to pop up - just about ready to post it myself. Shan and I have never fished for Salmon - but we're ready and raring to go. Hopefully we wont fall in. It will be our first time trying the downrigger too. Got my barbless hooks, flasher, rod and reel, "Guide to Salmon...

Hey Pat - with a recomendation like that folks should be lining up to take those off your hands :roll: ! Cheers, Tom

Marty showed us his bike when Shan and I visited with him and his wife for lunch one weekend on Lopez Island. I was very impressed with the quality of the bike and how easy it was to set it up and fold it back down. Shan took it for a spin around the parking lot and didnt crash into anything -...

Anyone using a Klepper ? Not sure how easy it would be to assemble onboard. http://www.klepper-usa.com tom
