I was watching E-Bay for a while trying to find a deal on a windlass (wound up getting a Sprint 600 and I absolutely love it), and I've seen this windlass for sale a few different times on it. I think the price was usually either $299 US or $399 US, can't remember. Just checked E-Bay and...

Fellow C-Brats, Please excuse the length of this post. I'll try to keep it as brief as possible and not ramble, but please read it in its entirety. To Post or Not To Post, That Is the Question. Americans enjoy many freedoms, the freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom to bear arms...

Ok, what's the general consensus on fogging a 4-stroke. Do you do it or no? My Honda dealer told me not to do it, that the 4-strokes don't need it. But I think I read that someone fogs their 4-stroke earlier in the thread. Any consensus on this?

Saw a Blue 22 Cruiser heading south on Rt. 23 between Ann Arbor, Michigan and Dundee, Michigan on Saturday, October 8. Meant to post earlier, but couldn't find the thread. Boat was named Sweet Pea.

These boats are too cool. Was pulling into a cove in one of the Lake Erie islands this past summer and saw one sitting there. I think they were looking over my boat about as much as I was checking out theirs. Had a couple of the Coast Guard guys come over and talk to us about the C-Dory later...

New Guy, Thanks for pointing that out. Pretty slick I say. DaNerd is a genius!!!! Jack

Basic info and pricing on the hull and options is now available on the C-Dory factory website. Need to get me one of these.

Big Dave, No problemo. One thing you might consider doing is beefing up the mounting areas on the hinge side. The ice box is held in place by 4 screws, one near each corner. The plastic on mine has busted right there by the screw from opening/closing it. I would think a piece of aluminum or...

Big Dave, I too have the ice box and use it regularly. Keeps most everything cold for about 3 days. I've found the perfect combination of ice is two 1 gallon milk jugs frozen solid and three 1/2 gallon milk jugs frozen solid. This combination fits perfectly in the tray. I locate the two...

John, I've uploaded 3 pictures in my photo album showing how I attached the Bomar hatch trim ring and with the screen in place. Should be the last 2 pictures on page 2 and the first picture on page 3. Jack

(Salty Dog) Bomar Hatch Trim Ring Mounts

John, With the configuration of the Bomar hatch in the C-Dory, you can't attach the ring to it without cutting it out. :o I meant to take pictures of how I installed mine this past weekend, but forgot to take my camera with me on Sunday when I was on the boat. Will try to get some pictures in...

John, I did similar to Mark. I ordered the trim ring and screen from West Marine. However, I bought a 6 foot section of aluminum angle, cut them into about 14 inch strips, then screwed and sealed/adhered those to the top of the berth around the hatch. Then I put the trim ring between the...

Aarrgh. We've reached a new low!! :shock:

OK, logged on to Woot this morning, saw the machine. First thing I thought (and the next thing I did) was, "Hmm, wonder how long before this appears on C-Brats." Got to C-Brats, and low and behold, here it is. I bought my Cup 'o Joe machine off Woot for the boat. Doesn't do Espresso...

Mike, Little history lesson for you on Tim Horton. Now most of our Canadian friends know who Tim Horton is, but most Americans are still a little behind on their hockey history. Tim Horton was a hockey player from Canada. Was considered to be one of the best players and was very successful in...

Ok, thread started off as Cup 'o Joe, and before you know it, everybody is talking about lattes and espressos. That's not a Cup 'o Joe, that's a foo foo drink. For me, just a nice cup of Tim Horton's coffee with cream fits the bill. Nothing fancy, don't need expensive equipment, and like the...

There are two plugs on the lower unit. The very bottom one is the drain plug, and the upper one is the vent plug. Be sure to place a bucket under the unit before you remove any of them to catch the oil. Now, how I do it is I remove the drain plug first (lower plug). Then I remove the vent...
