    Can a V6 Tacoma pull a 22' Cruiser?

    We have a 2010 Tacoma, 4.0 liter V-6, TRD Off-Road 4X4 and tow the CD 22 as well as a small travel trailer. We do need to tow in 4th gear per the owner's manual and get about 12 mpg towing either. I am pleased with the handling and have towed on the interstate and two lane roads. We usually tow...

    best way of draining the water tank

    We want to sanitize our water tank. What is the quickest way to drain it after sanitizing and rinsing? This winter we rinsed for the first time, but the draining process took forever via trying to to set up a siphon through the faucet. Any suggestions from you experienced C-Brats? Thanks!

    setting the compass heading on the Garmin 4208 GPS chart

    Thanks guys. I am also awaiting a reply from Garmin. Yesterday, I went to the marina and was attempting to configure the device per page 35 in the manual. Obviously I am overlooking something very simple, so I will continue trying and learning.

    Steering knob for helm/steering wheel

    Thanks guys! I attempted to install an Edson that I purchased a West Marine and could not manage to get the strap to go around the CD wheel, so I returned it. I have looked at NAPA, CENEX, Hadlock Building Supply, Westside Marine and Henery's Hardware, all in PT, to no avail. I'm now looking...

    Bottom Paint

    Thanks for the immediate responses. New to boating and were wondering if your advice, of no bottom paint and a good scrubbing, would stand if we decided to keep it in a slip for a three or four month period during the busy boating season here in Port Townsend. We just can't seem to decide if...

    Bottom Paint

    Is it necessary to have bottom paint in salt water if you trailer your boat? It could be in salt water for as long as a week or two for extended trips.
