Stateline Auxiliary ramp

Easy day with just shy of 200 miles. The landscape and geology of southern Utah and northern Arizona is breathtaking. As I tell Rosanne, this is what really recharges my faith in God. Interesting as well to see the homes of the native Americans. My mileage between Grand Junction and Blanding Ut came out to be 8.5. Gas was $3.15/g. From Blanding to 60 mi SE of Page Az was 9.8. Gas on the res near Inscription Az was $2.98. Launched today at Stateline around noon, after stopping briefly at Walmart to buy a few more fruits and make my lunch. The ramp was pretty shallow and a bit of a bitch to get the heavily loaded C-Traveler off her trailer. But alas with full reverse and turning the outboard back and forth, she came off! First stop after that was at Wahweap Marina to top off my water tank and take a shower. 😊. I found a nice tiny cove to beach the boat in near the ramp. Two of my friends I’m cruising here with are in Page tonight and will launch tomorrow. Cell service away from Wahweap is spotty, so I won’t be updating this blog daily for the next two weeks.Leggi altro
