Wow, a real gold-plater. Leather upholstery and (shudder) sixty-five gallons of varnish. I feel sorry for the poor sod who has to maintain that boat. Bryan ...
Well as "The Commodore" said: If you have to ask how much it costs to maintain and operate her, you cannot afford to own her. Besides, food will get awfully...
Thanks for the comments, Steve and Marvin. I will attempt to record the progress on a few web pages. Steve, I'll use yours as a model to strive for! The boat...
That's a good site! Interesting engines, though high-speed screamers (3,200 rpm! <g>). The fellow I got my Fisherman and Atlantic from has a Vire, but I think...
You might try to find "Eppler" airfoils on the web. I used those in designing airfoils for sailplane wing sections for some R/C models before PC's. The foils...
I didn't mean the expense; and I probably didn't mean the owner either, since the kind of people who own boats like that usually don't do their own work. I...
David, Not a symbolic offer. I'm 2 hrs north of Fern Ridge. My local water is Foster & Detroit, both of which are winter useable depending on how the Army ...
This should be of interested to everyone. After watching 60' last night about a piece on Google, I downloaded from Google.com "Picasa", and "Google Desktop...
That's interesting, I've seen a couple of advertisements for "Google Labs", they're looking for some good computer engineers to fix all the world's problems....
Bob, Google searching will find you loads of custom boat trailer makers all over the country. Their prices are really scary. I started shopping for a used ...

It's located in Everett, slips are available in Everett at $153/month plus electricity. It's a 26' sailboat. I just need it up there until spring when I will...
Hi Terry Thanks for the leads, I'll be sure and try them. The e-mail addresses got cut off by Yahoo as part of thier privacy thing. Could you send me a...
Greg You're better than 90 miles from Olympia if'n you're in Everett--it's a long way away. It's be a one day trip just to get there--and another back to the...
Greg, It is probably cheaper to rent a trailer and haul your boat home. There should be plenty of trailers in Portland you could get for $100 a day. The ...
Also depends on your freedom of time to sail it home. Plus whether you feel competent to come in over the bar at the mouth of the Columbia. The current really...
I found a boat mover in Portland who will haul from Olympia to Portland for $650. I'm sure the trailer idea is a reasonable one as well. In the end, though,...
Bob You don't really need to get a 24' trailer for your Birdwatcher II. The trailer I am using for my 20' long PK-20 is about 4' short of what it might be. I...
Thanks Bryan. I have not seen the Witt book, but shall get a copy. This is consistent with putting this one into "study mode" for a bit. I have made a note...
