    Best Dog Names

    My most recent canine acquisition (which some of you folks met last year at the Southeast Gathering in Apalachicola) is a purebred Pit that had a rednosed red for a sire and a bluenosed blue for a mother. He's the purplest dog I've ever seen and aptly carries the moniker, "Haze" ... he even...

    Boat Loans

    Considering the current financial climate I am amazed that the national lenders are still offering rates as low as 6.75% on loans exceeding $100,000 up to 240 months. The lenders that I use most frequently have actually raised their base rates over 2 percentage points over the past nine months...

    16ft cruiser offshore

    There is a story I heard directly from the teller of a night spent crossing the southern tip of Lake Michigan in his 16 Cruiser named "Itch". When he left Chicago in the early afternoon the waves were running 2'-4' with no prediction of worsening weather. As a seasoned boater with many hours...

    New Ranger 29

    The virtues of a new 29 VS a pre-owned 32 can be discussed ad nauseum. There are reasons that franchise auto dealers still sell used vehicles on their lots and reasons that people still go there to purchase new cars. Having been in the sales business for many years I have learned that it's...

    C-25 Hull Construction

    Pat, I don't know about what anybody else thinks or has experienced but the difference in the ride and handling of a 22 Cruiser with max hp and a 23 Venture with a 150 is nothing short of ASTOUNDING!!! The Venture is quieter and simply eclipses the 22 Cruiser for comfort in a short interval...

    A new C-Dory line?

    Somebody said "look at the Nimble Nomad" but I think even closer to what he's looking for would be their Vagabond. Charlie

    Raymarine S1000 Wireless Autopilot

    Ranger used to offer this unit but stopped installing them after several complaints about the boat "Hunting" especially when the sensitivities were turned up too high. Ranger recommends the ST6001 gyroscopically stabilized unit with the rudder feedback link. A remote control is available for...

    Attention military veterans...

    Marvin, I recently called the VA here in Florida to apply for benefits and was told I needed a copy of my DD-214 to determine eligibility. They faxed me a paper detailing different addresses to apply for the form based on when and where you served. I got mine in the mail within 10 days. Call...

    What is this for?

    Charlie, OK, so I was slightly mistaken, it's not impossible to reattach the nozzle control lever. If you can find the original hinge pin or a proper sized replacement (short with a very small diameter...no jokes from you, Byrdman) you CAN unscrew the aerater face of the nozzle and use a 7/16...

    What is this for?

    What you are looking at is the shower nozzle sprayer control lever. Once the roll pin breaks or slides out it is impossible to re-assemble and must be replaced. See your local dealer to order a replacement nozzle. Hope this helps. Charlie On edit by Da Nag - broken MySpace links removed

    What do you tow your EC 21 with and what is your MPG?

    Hmmm and I thought my truck was a little overkill. However...I made an 1830 mile trip to Houston and then Austin Texas then home last weekend picking up and delivering boats. While towing an R-25 Ranger from here to Houston I averaged 11.5 at 70 MPG on the highway. Coming back from Austin...

    Is a C-Dory warranty any good

    A simple (though not necessarily inexpensive) solution to the "what does the warranty cover" question would be an Extended Service Contract. that would cover almost everything on the boat, motor and trailer for up to six years including roadside assistance for the trailer and hoist-out/lift-out...

    Is a C-Dory warranty any good

    Having been in the car and boat business since 1989 it is fair to say that warranties (no matter the manufacturer of the end product) are no better nor worse than the people and the money standing behind them. It is human and dare I say sometimes corporate nature to avoid problems that you are...
