    engine swap for Tollycraft 48

    I have a 48 Tolly which I love. My power is two 6BTA Cummins at 300 HP each. I have sea trialed at 18 knots. I am on a fixed income and therefore usually travel at 8 knots. I have plenty of power if needed.

    Outside grill recommendation

    I purchased a treager pellet grill. It uses no propane. The temperature controls very well. I cook on the dingy deck and store when not in use on the fly bridge. I am planning to smoke some herring this spring when the Yaquina run comes in.

    Bright Work?

    Has anyone used Sea Gold by Petite?? I think it only comes in a satin finish and is a water based solution. I am very curious. Fish Tales

    Heading around the outside along the West Coast

    made this trip twice and it was always middle of June because it lays down a bit in June and the day light hours are a little longer. Same thought in September Longer days and sea states are nice as a general rule. Greg

    78puget-Trawler, If I remember correctly the fish weighed somewhere around 30-32 lbs. That fish is getting bigger every day, so check back with me in awhile and maybe it could weigh more. Soooo, what would you expect from someone whose moniker is FISH TALES. Have a great day Greg

    BandB, The marina on the south side as you come in under the bridge. I think it is called South Beach Marina or maybe I just created a new marina. My assigned slip is AS11. Close to the Rogue Brewery.

    Ya Just Gotta Luv it!

    Thanks for all the kind words. The wind is supposed to be 35 to 45 Kn with gusts up to 55. This harbor is inland about 3.5 miles as the crow flies. I have about 1/2 mile fetch to the SW so the wind does get a run at us. They think the power may go down but the genset is ready to go. The...

    Currently located in Florence Oregon. This is a nice small port and the bar is not as bad as the press it gets. I am kinda new to this site. What boats have I owned? 9' duck boat when a sophomore in High School, 24' pontoon boat when I lived on Swan lake in Northern Minnesota. 19' runabout...
