I've not had any warranty covered problems with my 2006 22 C-Dory until today. I just started to have a small hydraulic leak behind the steering wheel yoke running down the front of the v-berth wall. Not a whole lot of fluid, just a few drops. Just called C-Dory factory and left message with...

Best Day You could try using a light parachute- type fabric tarpoline and hang it from the roof hand rails to the bow rail. It would keep the sun off the v-berth and help keep temp. down. Allan

Sawdust, I was stationed at Otis in 1967. That was the year the Red Sox went to the World Series with Yaz, Lomborg, etc. Being a diehard Yankee fan from NY, it was the only year I rooted for the Sawks. Self preservation came to mind. :lol: Allan

Not being able to use the boat as much this year, having fresh fuel seems more important than worrying about any potential condensation. Thanks to all that have responded. Allan

I just read an article in Motor Boating that promoted filling your fuel tanks only enough to compleat your trip plus 10-15 % additional for safety. This is for fuel economy by reducing weight. Doesn't this go against the theory of topping off tanks to reduce condensation and possible ethanol...

I am and probably will always be computer illiterate. My kids call me "pathetic" when it comes to the electronic world. I thank those who labor to give us this forum and, if possible, make it easier for slumucks like me to use it. Allan

Like I said. Its not a lot of water-definately less than 2 ". I just turn the switch to manual and it pumps out. Thanks for the replies. Allan Jeanie P

This is my second year owning a CD 22. The first year ,after heavy rains and 2-3 weeks between visits, my cockpit would have water sloshing under the floor covers. My battery would be dead. I installed a battery charger and shore power to eliminate the battery drain. Twice this season after...

Those are square screw bits. #1 or 2 . I can't recall the size. West Marine has a screw driver package with several different bits, including these for $19. You could probably get them at any hardware store since they are used for the long deck screws on patio decks so they don't strip the...

Steve, there is a diode between both switches. It looked like just a wire lead slipping between the plastic spade type connections at each positive switch lead. I'll check it out later today or tomorrow. I'll also check out the connection at the achor light. I didn't have any testing equipment...

Last week I put the boat in the water and this week I'm bringing my gear aboard. My anchor light would not light after I connected it. I noticed that my running lights (red/green) would light up when I turned on either the anchor switch or the running light switch. The white light never came on...

Byrdman, does this regulation only apply to those boats that have discharge valves for heads or all boats period? Allan

Thanks for the replies. Charlie, let us know how you did after you finish your radar project. Any problems or suggestion. Allan

On CD22's, I see radar mounted flush to the roof just behind the running light. I see some on their own bracket and some mounted on arches. Is there any problems to flush mounting on a CD22? Other than being able to slide a dinghy under it, what is the advantage to having a arch? Are they...

Pat- Maybe it's just your WM store, maybe not, but your painting ALL WM stores with the same brush. My local store has provided me with excellent service. Prices might be lower elsewhere but everytime I try a D-I-Y project, I almost always have to return something because of wrong size or not...

Terraplane, your lucky! Here in Alexandria, there are no watermen. I'd have to ask a Washington bureaucrat and then have to wait until he consulted the polls! :cry Allan

Roger, sign me up. I was 127 lbs. when I was discharged in '68. I was 168 when I got married in '82. Bad back, one knee replacement later, I top off at 220 lbs. I need a challenge. Thanks Allan

Charlie, are you asking Mike for a simulation or a demonstration? :twisted: :wink Allan

Bought a 70# anvil just to see if they shipped for free! :lol: Charlie, you REALLY need to get out on the boat. :wink Allan

I ,too, went to West Marine yesterday and they only had two cans of Liquid Rollers, but they were on the floor near the clothing section. :roll: I also picked up some Startron. Thank you C-Brat (can't remember who) for mentioning the coupons. :thup Allan
