Doesn't anyone have a radar? I had a set of reef points put in my main this spring, and was able to try them out last weekend at Cat Isle. It worked great,...
Thanks for the update. I have some "local knowledge" questions. Going across BHAM Bay where exactley does make the turn to go up Hale Passage? I have my GPS...

Yo, Jamie/Kirk/Randy, can you guys order up some nicer weather for Saturday? Seems its coming from the Canadian side, looks like a shower for the Sucia...

Hmm... my rather brief manual indicates something different. The CTCSS and DCS are both privacy codes - CTSS has 38 privacy channels and DCS has 83 privacy...
