Rocky and I went to the Portland Boat Show yesterday. This years show is shorter than years past, only seven days and the number of boat dealers and companies is noticeably smaller. The boating industry took quite a hit this last year. I have noticed several dealers around town have gone out of business. My [...]
This New Year just kind of rolled in quietly for me. My work schedule gets me up before 5 AM most days and it’s hard to break that ritual on my days off. I had New Years eve and today off this year but last night was sleeping on the couch by 9:30 [...]
This is the Selene 36 named Serenity and is a bareboat charter with San Juan Yachting. This is just a dream boat for me and I would really like to take her for a week long cruise. I plan to take some training next year either with some family that has a nice yacht up [...]

I got back from my little adventure with my friends Elk Hunting last Friday. I had a great time and the weather for the most part was good. The temperature dropped below freezing most nights but the days were great except for Tuesday. That day it did quickly get cold and even [...]
The fifth wheel is all cleaned and loaded. I have lots of extra propane, water and gas on board and plenty of eats. I am heading out tomorrow morning about 6am to go Elk Hunting with a friend from work and a couple of retired guys I use to work with. I’m [...]
