The Piscataqua is indeed a challenge. It is my understanding that the tugboat captains have to have a special license to operate this river. My 22 with a 90 Honda is in Sagamore Creek and several times a week I am 'white knuckling' the narrow channel bridge by the Wentworth that the locals...

First, this is a legitimate question. (Please do not transfer post to an 'Adult Material Only' site). My mate and I can only sleep with our heads forward. When we try positioning ourselves to what appears a much better use of the space with our feet facing the bow we feel like we are...

I have asked this question before. Please humor me. First I go to 'Our C-Dory Albums' and click on my album. For me, even this 1st step is not very user friendly. I am on pg. 17 and the screen only has 1-10, the next 2-11 and then 3-12, etc. Why can't the 2nd have 11-20? Clicking on Snap Out...

When I try to find info on a specific topic I know has been discussed I usually have only limited success using the 'search' button. I hesitate to start a new thread and usually give up. What are the tricks? I don't want to waste anyone's time with a new 'reinvent the wheel' post when I know...

I grew up with boats in NH.  As a little kid I never understood why we spent several hours traveling to Maine where my Dad kept the boat stored for the winter.  We had tons of room behind the barn after all.  Yup, you guessed it.  Our ‘Live Free of Die’ state taxed the boat for storage.  Maine...

Can the info you wanted to share be posted in another way. Copy and 'Paste' or just your basic stealing it.

Brilliant. How about a car windshield washer device to go with it. Although if you have seen my recent post regarding being in sunny 'warm' Florida may I suggest, after 10 days of 'f'ing cold that if I were here with my C, I would have to put anti-freeze in the bucket that holds the stuff'!

Vacationing for a couple weeks in sunny, 'warm' Florida Keys and it was below 50 last night. C-Dory owners will be replacing their air contioning units with a Wallas stove! I now wearing more layers than when I cruise the Maine coast in the fall.
