The Adventures of Kokomo: 8 Days On The Lake for the 4th!
http://theadventuresofkokomo.blogspot.com/2012/07/8-days-on-lake-for-4th.html
The Adventures of Kokomo. Monday, July 9, 2012. 8 Days On The Lake for the 4th! Lake Oroville is diverse along it's 167 miles of shoreline. One can find what feels like a different lake by simply changing locations. In eight nights, I spent my days wandering the lake (and meeting new folks), and each night in a different anchorage "out there". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A FOSS tug, working off Richmond. One of the work horses that ply the Bay and the turbulent waters outside of it! The Waggoner'...

The Adventures of Kokomo: January 2011
http://theadventuresofkokomo.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Kokomo. Thursday, January 20, 2011. Trintec: Front and Center. I've known since Kokomo became ours that I wanted to put a nautical clock in the boat, but I was unprepared for the vast number of choices I'd be faced with when I began looking at models within the size range that would fit in/on her center overhead panel. I knew that we could accommodate only about a 5.5" overall size, and that I could just fit three instruments on this panel. I waited and looked. I installed them this wee...

The Adventures of Kokomo: November 2010
http://theadventuresofkokomo.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Kokomo. Monday, November 22, 2010. The next morning I visited the coin-op showers (nice! I was checking the front tie downs, when all of sudden there was a loud crash, and I looked around the other side of my boat to see the boat (a 25’ or 27’ Bayliner cabin cruiser) the trailer (minus the truck! Winch, and he refused. He got the winch line out and hooked it up to boat trailer and winched it slowly towards the trailer. Sunday, November 21, 2010. Tuesday, November 16, 2010. I did the lat...

The Adventures of Kokomo: July 2011
http://theadventuresofkokomo.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Kokomo. Tuesday, July 12, 2011. Independence Day Weekend - Lake Oroville, CA (July 3, 2011). It had been an eventful few months (another story) since I'd been out on Kokomo, and I was excited to be trailering the yacht to Spillway Launch Ramp on the Oroville Dam on July 3, 2011. I'd just completed a fill-up of her tanks - ouch! And left the station headed for the ramp, when the truck was smashed into by another pick up that failed to stop for a red light. I'm not sure what woke me. ...

The Adventures of Kokomo: August 2012
http://theadventuresofkokomo.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Kokomo. Sunday, August 26, 2012. Some two years ago, I wrote in our ship's log that we lost Kokomo's port side window screen overboard while trying to put it on while on the water and after dark (lesson learned! Then, in August, we were escorting a group of sailboats and kayaks from Chico Yacht Club, which we've since joined, and were passing by the cove where we'd lost the screen. Almost as an afterthought, I switched the autopilot off and steered into the cove for another search.

The Adventures of Kokomo: December 2010
http://theadventuresofkokomo.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Kokomo. Wednesday, December 1, 2010. I'll keep mine . thank you! After launching at Berkeley Marina recently, I watched a 25' C-Dory launch and prepare to go to sea. NOTE: It's remarkable to me how much more room I have in the Rosborough (which is 25' plus the hull extension and outboards)! I decided to take affirmative action, and did research on the propeller locks that are out there. I settled on McGard propeller locks, ordered them, and had them on Kokomo the following week....Searc...
