Sounds like you managed to solve the problem; congratulations! If you have any photos can you share them when you have a chance? I'll be away without internet for the next 5 weeks, so please don't rush on my behalf. Thanks, Paul!

Autocorrect sucks! The was meant to say “photos”.

If there were a joyous sent or posted, I can’t seem to find them. Is there a particular place I can look for them?

My brother was just over in Barclay Sound fishing! He had a ton of luck! There's quite a few homes on Texada, but far fewer than most other islands in the Gulf. We're at Cook Bay opposite Bull Passage. Drop me a note if you're passing by and if I'm there I'll buy you a beer (or a glass of...

I'm in Kelowna, but the boat is on the coast. We have a cottage on Texada Island, opposite Lasqueti Island on Sabine Channel. Do you get up the the frozen north much? And thanks for your help here, Paul. Please do let me know what you get back from the dealer. My dealer in Parksville just...

Thank you all so much for your input. I really appreciate your help sorting out my thoughts on this. I think what I'll do is get a small rowboat to keep on the shore at the cabin and maybe carry a light kayak or an inflatable on the Gulfstream for gunkholing. We have a dock up at the cabin on...

My cottage is on the West Coast of British Columbia. When I’m there I’ll be leaving the boat on a mooring bouy and need to get to the beach without getting soaked. The bay is a bit protected but can get waves to 2-3 fr. The dinghy should be able to get my wife and I into shore and be light...

Does anyone have any experience/suggestions for carrying a dinghy on a 232 Gulfstream with twin F150 outboards? Would davits work to hang one behind the motors or would the balance be put way off? Any weight restrictions? Best type of dinghy to use? Thanks!
