    My husband and I are moving to Dutch Harbor in May, and we are looking for a better way to get a small pet and a coffee plant there. Hoping maybe we could pay someone to sail them up that's already headed that way.

    We're sure someone out there will tongue-lash us with "you should have procured moorage alongside the boat..." But buying parking before we have something to park seemed backwards to us...but, lesson learned. In the interim, we're desperately trying to find moorage in the greater Puget Sound...

    Hey All! We're planning to ship our 32' Aloha from Seattle to San Francisco this summer. Do you have a recommendation on a good shipper? ...or suggestions as to whom we should avoid? We thought about sailing her down with a hired captain, but decided against it due to time constraints, the...

    I'm in the process of looking at a 30' wood composite sailboat (red cedar with foam and glass on the outside). Its advertised as a Kennedy 30. The name is Tiga. I'm curious if anyone knows anything about this boat. I can't find anything on the web. Thanks Mike

    Hi Sailnet Community! Nik and I are happy as clams to be aboard our 1982 Aloha 32. Now that she's officially ours, we're ready to roll up our sleeves and get to work fine tuning some of her maintenance issues. Does anyone have recommendations for a marine maintenance consultant in the...

    Thread title says it all. My wife and I are purchasing a 27' Catalina at the end of the month. Our goal is to live on it within a couple of months. Our waiting plan is to keep it at Shilshole Bay Marina (SBM) until we find a liveaboard slip. SBM has a looong waiting list (6 mos. by their...

    Last night was really special here in Seattle. First the Huskies beat Stanford in college football and second, it was much warmer than usual for this time of year, with a brilliant sunset and a bright shiny moon to top it off. I took the boat out for a short solo sail that turned out to be...

    I have a Rhodes 19 with fixed keel I need to move from Seattle to Gig Harbor. The distance is approx. 40 miles or so. My question is if a person with basically advanced day sailing skills can make that trip in a boat of this size. I have a 4h.p Yamaha, the boat is late model. I assume at least...
