  1. Last year we had a bad keel & had to replace the co-op boat. This year, the rudder on the replacement (50-year-old) boat is full of water & isn't safe. ⛵️💸

    Drowning my sorrows with black forest cake.

  6. Hey, so, anyone know a cheap place to get a Catalina 27 rudder in the pacific NW? Or a fast and cheap place to get it rebuilt (or built from scratch, if that's a thing)?

    Blackline can rebuild it, but it'll take a month.

  11. Snagged a spot at the dock at Fossil Bay on Sucia Island. Hanging out on the command bridge with my two best friends while my clients take a hike. Rained this morning and cloudy most of the day, but pretty nice now. #boating #BoatLife #BoatDogs #DogsofMastodon

  12. *New episode*
    Great excitement last week as nine geese flew onto our moorings. Join us tonight on the 'Erica' and find out what happened and why geese might not be quite so different from us as we might think.

  13. Another (short) boat move done and boat & I live to cruise another day! 🙌 #boatstodon #boatLife

  14. *New episode*
    Tonight the canal seems so quiet and sleepy, but have you ever wondered what it is like below the surface? If we could slip into the water, what would we hear? Tonight, we listen in to that world and begin to explore strange soundscapes full of life and and wonder.
    We also are invited aboard the narrowboat Precious Jet as Steve Tyrell shares with us the view from his duck hatch.

    These moments remind us why the ocean is so special and why it’s important to protect the home of these magical creatures! ✨💙

  16. Well, I’m at Deer Harbor Marina on Orcas Island. Surprisingly affordable (off season) and very pleasant. In a little while, I’ll make the 1/2 mile walk up to the local BBQ place for dinner.

    This is my last free day before I join the Desolation Sound flotilla tomorrow. If the weather is this good even half the days, I’ll be thrilled.

    Bonus: A #seaplane just landed in the adjacent channel. Looks like he’s taxiing past.

  17. Tonight’s mooring ball is a wee bit exposed for my taste, but it’s been pretty smooth so far — except on the rare occasion when a boat speeds by in Bellingham Channel. I took my pups for a hike on shore. Some folks in a small fishing boat set up a camp on shore and are now out fishing nearby. I’ve got one of my crab traps out. It’s nice here. #boating #BoatLife #SanJuanIslands

  18. Interesting morning weather. It's crazy clear where I started about 8 miles back, but there are low clouds much closer to the mainland. The one shown here is Cypress Island which is partially obscured by multiple layers of clouds. I've got the current in my favor and should get to my destination by 9:30 AM. I had a very rushed departure when I realized that there was only about a foot of water under my running gear and the tide was still going out. #boating #BoatLife #SanJuanIslands

  19. Well, it looks like I either caught lunch or dinner. Both of these are about a quarter inch larger than the minimum and both male so they're both keepers. Oddly, they were the only crabs on board when I pulled them in; the last few times the trap has been full. #boating #crabbing #BoatLife #SanJuanIslands
