By the time all this global warming stuff settles out and the North Pole is open water, I expect I won't need to. The Great Lakes will be tropical by then, and your neck of the woods will be under water. :^( Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C Landfall 38) -- Bayfield, WI On Oc

Mike, Thanks for the heads up. That boat is with Sunnybrook Yacht brokers. They are asking ~$39000. Very few interior pictures online (which is a red flag after I looked at a boat earlier this summer where pictures were carefully taken to hide rot and water intrusion) There is another CS3

I hate to kick sand on your dream, Fred, but I read that the report on climate change (note it isn't called global warming anymore) that was released by the UN last month forecasts that hot regions will get hotter and cold regions will get colder over time. Sounds kind of at odds with current views

Jonathan Love your blog and all of your posts. Sometime, either offline or online, I would like to hear more about your future cruising plans. Among other things - is it possible to cruise in the Med on a budget? And (64K question) how is your boat getting to the Med? Cheers, Roger Roger

I have same engine on my 33’ Mark ll. Pre-season I replaced all belts, impeller, hoses and had alternator rebuilt. All were pretty simple and trust me I am no mechanic. Also flushed and filled coolant and replace the pressure cap. Only my second year winterizing but this weekend I will run the

Mark, What are the "NADA" valuations you refer to? You won't find a CS30 for $15k on the Great Lakes unless it has some serious problem. If I found a good one for that price I would buy it tomorrow. Boats of all kinds are generally more expensive here than on the east coast, but that
