    CD25 Swamped in Cook Inlet

    A-Men. this is without a doubt the most knowledgeable and most civilized boating board I have ever seen. I don't understand why other boating web sites can't follow the lead and fine example set by the owners of C-Dorys who contribute to this site. Valuable knowledge is shared and some of you...

    couple of outboard questions

    For what its worth, I gave up flushing my motors back in 1975 after being advised by a well experienced mechanic that it was a complete waste of time. Since then I have owned over 20 boats, some of which I used for many years in the harshest salt water conditions. Some were stored for long...

    Which AutoPilot...?

    Hello Guts. You are the only other person I ever heard of that had an autopilot on a 17 Whaler. I also have a Boston Whaler 17 Montauk with a Raymarine autopilot. I am currently moving the autopilot from my Whaler to my new (used) boat. Autopilots allow the captain to enjoy the ride as much as...

    motion sickness wristwatch

    Chris, all the remedys, (accu-pressure bands) and the watches work well for some folks, even those with some pretty extreme motion sickness succeptibility. However, they don't help some people. Worth trying though in any case. Good luck! (BTW, when we get our CD we will be going to the Bahamas...
