    New C-Dory coming in

    The color that appeals to the wives is also a good idea, often they control some of the purse strings.

    tomcat 255 questions

    We cruise with a couple adults sittiing in the cockpit, on lawn chairs. Inside the camperback, no problems. Sleeping, we have done 2 cots in cockpit, wife on settee and me with 2 kids up front. Little tight with regards to gear storage, but fine otherwise. 135s as well, seem fine. Just...

    Is a bare bottom a good thing?

    Barrier coat and bottom paint or risk osmotic blisters. Always a shame to ruin and nice, fair, smooth hull with bottom paint though. Had a 35ft racing sailboat a while back, it just had epoxy barrier coat, sanded to 1000 grit, so we put it in the water so see what would happen. It yellowed...

    San Juan Suggestions?

    Well, having 2 girls, almost 6 and 3.5, I should chime in. They love Sucia, shallow bay with its caves and sandy beach. However a dock is nice for dip netting, our major passtime. Any place with a pool is nice too. Deere harbor, Roche, Rosario is awesome. Basically at this age my wife needs a...

    Finally Made it to Sucia

    We love Rosario as well, been there twice this summer already, great for kids. I would also recommend Otter Bay on North Pender island. Awesome place, with a nice couple of pools.

    Port Side Bilge Pump Wont Turn Off - Tomcat 255

    I did the rebuild on the macerator, lasted about a year, finally just replaced the macerator. I did have that problem with the port bilge pump keeping on going. It seems sometimes just the right amount of water is in there to trigger it, plus debris around the screen and then it keeps going...

    KEEP BUMPING HEAD

    I use the smaller stiffer pipe insulation, it stays up over the door no problem, and up above forward berth. If it gets pulled off, I just put it back up, takes 2 seconds. It is plenty retentive without glue. Small price to pay for not smacking your head.

    Tom Cat power

    Kind of defeats the purpose of a cat for me. Twins are really nice for maneuvering . Agree with roger proper mods or most likely a new bracket. There must be a hydrodynamic theory on two versus one on a cat as well.

    Solar Panel Advice

    Just took delivery of my Renogy 100w flexible panel, waiting for the genasun charge controller, then will install. Looks like it will lay on the camper back right at the junction of the cabin top. Not ideal but that is where it will go. Pics when I get it done.
