Not really such a crazy idea. Pace America brand trailers actually showed a cargo trailer in their brochure a few years ago that was equipped to haul a boat. They showed the boat driving into the trailer. Not sure how successful that was or if they still do it, but they tried to market it a...

Mark, Here is a link to a write up by BoatUS about CO detectors. You might check this out before you decide anything as it might have some good advice for people looking to install a CO detector. http://www.boatus.org/onlinecourse/course_re-write/carbonmonoxide.html Hope that helps. Jack

Took me 6 years from the time I first saw a C-Dory to the time I purchased the boat. Spent 3 years generally researching the boats (C-Dory website, etc.), then saw one up close at the dealer, then another 3 years after that before I finally bought one.

portvista, I believe the factory does offer the Sprint 600 windlass as an option. It's just not on the CD-22 pricing page. It's listed on the Tomcat 255 pricing page at $1450. Worth every penny. I didn't have one on my boat the first year. I promptly installed the Sprint 600 on my boat...

SWEET!!! The music is by Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Just saw them in concert last Wednesday. Talk about a group that knows how to put on a good show. Highly recommend seeing them if they come the way of any fellow Brats. Their light show is AWESOME!!! This dude did a marvelous job of...

I usually only put additive in mine when it's going to get extreme cold (less than 10 degrees F). If you have the engine block heater, just plug the truck in at night, and I've never had a problem of it not starting. One year the truck was parked at the public marina in Grand Marais, MI (on...

I believe the most recent BoatU.S. magazine had an article in it on the Fitzgerald. It's always interesting to read about the boat, the possible causes of her sinking (I don't know how many theories I've read about on that) and the continuing lore of her. Listen for the 29 bell rings around...

Scotty, Was just curious if you ever got the Suzuki's straightened out or not. Jack

Salmon Slayer, Don't let a motor intruding into the V-berth sway you away from a windlass such as the Sprint 600. That motor is totally vertical, so the entire motor unit stays in the rode locker area and doesn't go past it into the sleeping compartment. There are some that have the motor go...
