Just went back to work through Yoh Co. as a contractor, and working in manufacturing now at Carlson Rd.<br /><br />Shumway moved the Beneteau back, so I had plenty of room to do my spring work on the hull of Water Colors. I launch Tuesday, May 5th, and looking forward to spending some time working on the boat once she is wet.<br /><br />Shumway has always been good to me, and the price seems to be competitive with other marinas. Skip Shumway keeps a well maintained facility and I would recommend them.<br /><br />The only other marinas at Rochester are Voyager next to Genesee Yacht Club, and Riverview, beyond the bridge. I cannot speak for either one except to say that Voyager docks are not dredged and look pretty shabby. Riverview is a marina that is trying to make a comeback, and I have not been down there to check it out lately.<br /><br />Send me an email at drysailor@gmail.com.<br /><br />Cheers...

Welcome aboard! Did Shumway get you some clearance to work with? How have they been to you over all? I have a Sabre 28 that I keep Sackets Harbor so I am not familiar with the Rochester marinas. I would like some feedback because I may move the boat closer at some point. Hope your talk of selling the boat has gone away it does look like we will all be gainfully employed for some time to come. Would love to hear from you.<br />sabre28sailorsabre28sailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07821391668810376123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7103604950446394875.post-11429090847583904192008-12-07T11:41:00.000-05:002008-12-07T11:41:00.000-05:00It is now mid December.

However, as time went by, the geese came right up to the cardboard cut-outs of coyotes. One wise-guy member even said he saw one of the geese humping the coyote! lol<BR/><BR/>The other day I visited the club early one clear, cold morning. There were at least a dozen geese just sitting there on our beautiful lawn. I rounded them up, chasing them into the river, but they really didn't go far, swimming next to the docks. I then turned on the infamous Goose-B-Gone Ultrasonic goose noise maker, and they slowly swam down river.<BR/><BR/>I guess there isn't much to do but to take my dog Ernie and see if he can chase them away. Unfortunately, he is not a border collie, so they might come back.Dry Sailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14603737682819790683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7103604950446394875.post-60016740270851404402008-11-12T07:01:00.000-05:002008-11-12T07:01:00.000-05:00I like this site very much because this site is ve...I like this site very much because this site is very good.

Whew! That sure did stink. I replaced it with a tank from West Marine and that worked well. The only problem was the location was in the way for doing any work on the stuffing box or checking transmission fluid level.<BR/><BR/>The tank on my current 1990 Hunter 33.5 resides under a dinning settee. I had problems with the vent plugging, causing some backup in the head and very difficult flushing. Resolved that by elevating the vent hose. It had a dip in it causing water to plug the vent at the low spot.<BR/>KPDry Sailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14603737682819790683noreply@blogger.com
