I saw your pictures. I race on the Columbia River here in Portland and
love it. The currant is sometimes a little challenging, but we are
usually in my Soling or in a Cal 20 and A 3 ½ horse motor does fine.
Looking at your pictures, and the fact that you have your own doc, it
seems a crime not to have some sort of sailboat. Do you see others
sailing? If yes, ask them what type of boat they would recommend. It
looks perfect for some sort of gaff rigged wooden boat and something
good to drink.
