Hi all, I have been a member since 2011 and a 2003 C Dory 22 Cruiser owner since 2013. I have loved my boat and this forum has been the best I've ever been on. Extremely helpful and great bunch of folks here. I also went to the San Juan Island gathering in, I believe 2017. My use for my the...

Update. The problem found was a bad rectifier. This is actually the second time this has happened on this motor. The original rectifier went out at about 750hrs, and I bought a used rectifier. I have about 1,050hrs currently and this time I will most likely buy new. I've always been a main...

I've been in Contact with Pacific Trailers and found out it is actually a 4200lb axle because it is 2x3, opposed to a 2x2 axle. They still call it a 3500lb axle because of the spindles. I'm waiting to hear back after emailing them some pictures and VIN of my trailer so they can research why it...

Thank you for the replies. As stated Pacific Trailers was very helpful. The 5 lug single axle trailers are 3500# axles and the 6 lug are 5200# axles. Unfortunately I have a 5 lug trailer which means I'm undersize for the loss of 2003 22' cruiser with twin Yamahas. I'm unsure what to do at this...

I've always felt the single axle Pacific trailer that came with my 2003 22' C Dory Cruiser was a little undersized. I recently had to replace the leaf springs (one broke) and purchased springs rated for a 3500lb trailer. They look very similar to my old ones yet with the weight of the boat on...

Hi all, My tachometer recently started working intermittently until it finally has just given up. Everything on the Tach is functioning except for the RPM gauge. I have twins so I eliminated the Tachometer itself being the problem by plugging in the green wire (tach wire from flywheel) from...

I saw this while browsing local Craigslist ads. I don't have any association or know anything about the boat except the ad, but wanted to post it here in case anybody was interested. You don't see these very often. https://sfbay.craigslist.org/scz/boa/d/ ... 24725.html

I own a 22 C Dory Cruiser and regularly fish the SF bay and go outside of the gate. I love the boat, but you are not going anywhere fast. The bay is almost always choppy and going outside the gate can get nasty sometimes. I installed permatrims on my twin yami 40's and they made a HUGE...

My Screen name always leaves confusion. I'm on a 2003 22 Cruiser. I should change my name at some point. I have the standard manual wipers currently. I did a complete overhaul on them about a year ago, and just forgot how the wiper assembly secured. Thanks.

Thanks for the response. I think you are right is it an Allen head set screw. Hopefully the screw is still in it and it will be an easy fix! Sorry to ask such a simple question, one downfall to having the boat berthed and not at the house is the ease of fixing issues from going out and...

My last trip out my manual windshield wiper popped off, luckily I was able to grab it before it went overboard. This is only the outside piece, nothing else on the wiper assembly was affected. I didn't have time to take a close look at it, but it just popped right back on to a splined knob on...

I understand. The bag isn't even noticeable empty, but when it starts getting filled and starts to bulge it can get in the way sometimes. I still feel its the best solution for me. Cockpit space in general is a huge issue for me on the 22 since my main use is fishing and I didn't buy an...

I use a fish bag in the back of my boat. I don't have an image of mine but it is very similar if not the same to the picture in the post by "flapbreaker." I might have even gotten the idea from this post. http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t= ... 3805e577cd I've been very happy with the...

Many of us on the Forum have done that including me. Some have foam, some don't. Mine did, and was a bit of pain to remove but eventually all came out. I believe some people have used a hot knife. Use the search engine to find other threads but here is a start. Usually if you see black plugs...

On my Recent trip to Anacortes and the San Juan islands I had a lot of Fish and Chips. My best experience was "Secret Cove" in Anacortes. A low key hidden place with a great view. Good prices, good drinks, good service. All of my F&C in the area was great, but this place just seemed to have the...

Hi All, I have heard many great things of the San Juan islands and finally planned a trip to spend some time in Anacortes and Friday Harbor. Coincidentally this event is going on the same time my Fiancee and I will be there. We will not be boating. We are actually taking the train up from...

Hi all, I've had intermittent issues with my c dory factory electrical panel on my 2003 22' Cruiser. Power for components wired to the panel would lose power for just a second. This became especially annoying for my autopilot system (auxillary button) because all it takes is a fraction of a...

Hi all, I know there is a wealth of information and resources on this forum regarding the San Juan island area. I'm planning on taking a research/pleasure trip soon to see this area for myself to further my investigation on potential investment/vacation/retirement property. I'm young (33), but...

As a californian planning to retire in Seattle/ Pugeout Sound area this isn't sounding good! Am I going to run into the same problems I'm running away from?
