New from Washington state

Hi,
My wife and I spend a lot of time hanging out and sailing our Bavaria 47 with our great dane dog around the Puget Sound (Seattle).
Look forward to reading about tips and tricks and hope to eventually contribute a thing or two about boat electronics.

Up to 250 pounds, I'd guess the same way one hoists a dinghy aboard.

Welcome! You've come to the right place. We sail with two Wesh Pembroke Corghis and while smaller the doube down adds up. Dogs and sailing seem to find a way that works. All you know is always welcome here and wanting to learn more is why ALL of us are still here. There is always something going on at CF.

Thanks!!

Our dog, Pluto, is (only) 115lbs. Which btw seem to be about the weight limit for the "Paws Aboard" boarding step.

Re: New from Washington state

Welcome to CF, from a fellow Seattleite. Do you keep your boat on the lake since you're in Redmond, or the Sound?
