I can almost see mike from scam marine now. Hmmm another wallas what should i say it is this time. I think i'll charge them for a curcuit board and a glow plug and tell them they are lucky they sent it in when they did or it would have been more. Just so all of you know Triton marine is a...

It's sad how many times i've read of people having problems with their wallas. If an engine had this many problems it would be recalled. Scan marine is understandably helpful because they have made a killing repairing the wallas. These stoves are awesome...when they work, but how can anyone...

You will want to know of damage history. Water intrusion with a balsa core hull is a serious problem. Buying anything sight unseen is a risk but if the price is right you can afford to do some repairs. Being a charter boat it probably has had a hard life. A c-dory doesnt take constant pounding...

This is a very good thing! :smiled :thup :thup

I'm another canuck eager to be on the brat map. Thanks eh!

Grutledge, i would recommend a tall radar arch and a roof rack. That way you get the best of both worlds. I made a roof rack out of pvc filled with wooden dowels covered in silicon. Works great was cheap to build and you can size it to suit your needs without much trouble.

Great, thanks for the info.

You may want to look at the new yamaha 70 its over 100lbs lighter than the 90 hp and alot better on fuel :wink:

Is a 135 honda enough power for the 25 cruiser ?

Thats a great idea rich thanks for that. Initially my concern was feeling the hatch under you when lying down but your advice will solve that problem and its the right price too. Once again the cbrats come through thanks again!

Just looking for a flush hatch for in the v berth for storage. One around 24 by 12 inches anyone installed one or two of these?

You might have been able to repair board yourself i just did so on my wallas. Total cost was under 20 bucks. It was a burned tip32a transistor. Spend a little more time troubleshooting next time you'll save alot. If sent my stove away evert time i had a problem it would have cost me over $1200...

Roger is right, this wasn't that difficult of a repair, just a close inspection to determine the problem, a little time spent looking for the required parts and a steady hand for the actual repair. I think all too often money is wasted on parts that aren't required simply because of lack of...

Well the wallas quit again, this time i let the smoke out of the circuit board. First thought is this is going to be expensive, after talking to scan marine my worst fears were realized, yes replacing the board was going to cost me 600 dollars! This was not acceptable and as much as i love the...

Look underneath at back of stove you will see a lever conected to hood this actuates a switch when hood is closed, check for corosion you might be able to repair otherwise replacing this unit is a good start.

Thanks for the info, looks like I have some planing to do before I spend any money. Ideally I would like to build a tilt mount to get optimum sun exposure. Looks like it's going to be a winter project.

Anyone mount a solar panel setup on their 22 cruiser that they care to tell us about? I'm looking at putting a panel on either side of the handrail on the cabin and being limited for space 40 watts output Is about max for the size of panel I would like to use, is it worth the hasle and expense?

Did you find a Cdory on the island?

Has anyone had any luck replacing the individual components on the 95du motherboard? I let the smoke out of it the other day and after realizing a new one is $600 i thought it would be worth a try to repair it. Does anyone have any tips/tricks to perform this delicate surgery? :cry:

I've had similar experiences in my 22 in a following sea. My boat is equipped with a permatrim not trim tabs but i've found that trimming the motor up a bit to raise the bow and push the stern down helped alot. Most times in these situations I still feel uneasy when dropping into the trough...
