Today we're casting off about 0830 and heading for Parry Sound (getting in around 1400 or so), and the end of this leg of the cruise. It's a...
He was there for no other reason than as an employee of the company. Therefore he was acting for the company under their supervision. Firing...
I think you very much answered your own question on all counts. How many people have you known who have fallen in love (lust) fast, jumped into...
Today our plan is to go in to Tobermory at the end of the Bruce Peninsula, Docking at about 1330. Assuming that we have WiFi coverage, the video...
Seems to me that a better way to do that would be to just say they don't take transients. And with two guy aboard we don't generate much garbage...
Port Elgin-New Experience Port Elgin is a very pretty town with a nice marina. However they're not prepared for transient boaters. Their staff...
Nope, that would still be the operator, unless he drifted in on dead engines, and he wouldn't have done that damage on a drift. Seen this too...
Hours The one red flag that nobody seems to have picked up on is that 600 hours in 19 years. Is that SMOH or original hours? I'd want to see at...
Doesn't look as bad as a (I think it was a 68) Sunseeker I saw a few years ago up in New Rochelle that hit a barge in L.I. Sound. That was caved...
Welcome to YF and the thread Adam. Yes, enjoyed myself. Thanks for the local knowledge. BTW, if your son is near by he'll like the back of my...
Won't see Rodgers City unless/until at least next spring. We're keeping our Canadian flag raised through this leg and most of next. We're...
Excellent first post William, and welcome to YF. I'd like to add or expand on just a couple of things. 1) Definitely think hard about used vs,...
Grand Bend, On. G.B. is a good stop. The dock staff is extremely helpful and accommodating, and the marina can handle a boat our size. Getting...
Exactly, which I why when I'm teaching (although I'll mention the 4 minutes) I tell them that as soon as they finish fueling turn on your blower...
Correct, except remove all people from the boat completely. Blowers off during fueling, so they don't draw the fumes in, and then start them after...
Doesn't even need to be a fuel leak. all you need is for the breeze to blowing in the wrong direction while fueling and the fumes will enter...
I don't think it's just the boat industry. Since 2008 every industry has been seeing how few employees the can get by with and how little they...
Sarnia Bay Sarnia Bay a small, shallow bay with more than a few geese. I'd call it more of a cove than a bay, at least where the marina is....
One more avoidable death. In a call home tonight I found out about a boat exploding in Manhassett Bay while fueling. A 74 year old man was kill...
DK about the left coast, but in the east I always recommend buying a boat in that class based on the availability and quality of service if new....
