    Lake Ontario

    We have a cottage on L. Ontario near Golden Hill State Park (on the US side of the lake). Seeing my boat last summer, a neighbor bought a brand new C22 as well. And we have seen another in our area parked on its trailer. We regularly put into the lake at Goden Hill SP, and into the Erie...

    Hard Times Hit Lake Erie Boating

    We have seen VERY few boats on L. Ontario (where we have a cottage). We launched this afternoon (Sunday at 2 pm) at Golden Hill SP: not a single trailer in the lot, either coming or going, and we did not see a single boat in more than two hours on the water!

    Fifth Wheel Trailer Or ????

    We own a 32' fifth wheel, as well as a CD-22. We use the same truck (a 3/4 HD Sliverado PU) to tow both units. We carry an inflatable double kayak when we are traveling in the fifth wheel trailer, so we can get out on the water. Longer stays--like wintering in the south--I would consider...

    Crew seat refit

    My Dinette Conversion (see photos) does not provide a forward-facing crew seat. Rather, it is "side-facing." But we love it; it serves us very well. The crew and captain can maintain easy communication. And the lounge seat makes a wonderful place for a nap, with no makeup or fuss. (I had a...

    Seating solution for a family of 5?

    Little Mac here.... Thanks for the compliment (and the link to my photos). In another sub-album, you will also find photos of a project converting available space in my CD 22 into sleeping arrangements. I can sleep a couple in the the V-berth, and up to 4 kids (3 off the floor) in the cabin!

    Speakers for in cabin

    Wow, Minnow, what a nice enclosure you have for the upper shelf! Did you build it yourself? Do you have a template of the face profile you would be willing to share with an envious fellow C-Brat?

    Most of the time I am able to use the cleats. A couple of times--at a high dock--I have had to tie off the grab rail.

    $ NYS - CANAL SYSTEM $

    There was no connection between the waiving of fees and the flooding that occured last year. They had been waived the previous year as well. The flooding occured after the decision and announcement to continue the waiver another year.

    $ NYS - CANAL SYSTEM $

    I was joking. As you can see, I live in NY...and the Canal is a waterway I regularly use. So I will buy a seasonal pass. NY has been trying to promote greater use of the Canal. The fee had resulted in reduced use. So it was waived for a couple of years, and boating went back up. Now, I...

    Raising the helm seat.

    Triple J: 1. I don't think the Cabela's seat is any higher than the orginal. 2. The low back may be better for the purpose you describe.

    Raising the helm seat.

    I replaced the factory helm seat with Cabelas' Elite Deluxe seat. I really like it. One benefit is that it folds perfectly flat (see photos).
