Re: McClure water level

McClure Point is getting worse. It's single lane and a huge hole that will drop your trailer 1-2 feet. Going to stop using that ramp and go to Barrett's Cove.

Re: Service at C&C Marine Modesto

Greg is one of the best marine mechanics around. Marine mechanics are a rare breed and very very busy. I have been taking my boats for service and repairs at C & C Marine in Modesto for many many years now. I wouldn't let anyone but Greg touch my boat.
