    Orca Jump off San Juan Island

    Was returning from a Lake Union Sea Ray rendezvous yesterday and we came upon a fairly large pod of orca having a little play time off of False Bay. We watched them put on a show for about 30mins and then made way for Seattle. Quite a spectacle and sharing a seemingly crappy photo of a jump...

    Water Heater Upgrade in 390DA

    I'm thinking to upgrade my current 6gal water heater with a larger size....ideally an 11gallon. While I will measure the available cavity to work with, by memory, it seems the space available in the existing cavity under the aft sofa is just about fully occupied by the 6gallon heater so maybe...

    While cruising the lower Hudson today at 2560 RPM (80% load) both engines(synchronizer on), I had to quickly pull back on the throttle to avoid a log strike. When idle speed was reached, a low oil pressure alarm sounded and registered for both engines on the Smart Craft. The oil pressures...
