Fuel will draw from the tank, thru the Racors and to the engines. I know this from ingesting some gas whilst sucking on the lines. I confirmed the delivery by using a 12V Facet pump. No crossover, stock tank configuration. On engine filters are clear. Hard to imagine 4 engine mounted fuel...

Just wondering if this was ever resolved, I have a very similar issue with our '02 Tomcat, twin 90HP Hondas, approx, 230 hrs each. Went out on maiden voyage, engines started fine and ran pretty well. RH motor would cut out at 4K+ RPM, but could catch it and keep it from dying if I tapped the...

Trailer: Agreed, it is a bit light to my thinking also, but it did the job and hopefully, once it returns to SJI, it won't have more than a 3 mile commute to the ramp. White stuff: Here in Ice Station Zebra, above 9K' in January, the blue stuff turns to white stuff, and lots of it! Bus...

Thanks to all for the congrats for making it home and the photo posting tips. I think I may move the boat forward a bit on the trailer to try to ease some of the "porpoising" we were experiencing on the road between Grand Junction and Montrose (the heaves in that part are as bad as I have ever...

So I guess my career as a documentary producer/photographer is pretty much down the toilet.... We took off from SJI on the 5:45 ferry, in the rain. Got to Michaels around 7:45 (in the rain) and got hooked up (after bringing the wrong drop ball mount and taking a quick trip to the Granite falls...

I like C-Legs, but am considering C-Lebrity

The "Magenta Margarita "....Perfect!

Thanks Dave! I struggle with the photo posting process here. Don't know why, I get it done easily on most other sites....

So we got to Seattle yesterday and went out today to check on the boat, pack wheel bearings and tie her down for the trip back to Colorado. A BIG thanks to Michael of Global Marine Surveyors for not only doing an excellent survey, but helping out with getting the boat out of the water and...

All good advice, thanks for the input!

Thanks for the tips. Found a couple Ravens and a couple Luna C's too.

300 HP total? (150 x2?) I am inclined to think that this issue has more to do with weight than thrust. The laws of hydrodynamics will limit speed (within reasonable limits). I doubt that in a real world overpowering would result in a transom failure. I go with if the weight is within the specs...

I've done them in the bumper (not an option), in fenderwells, inside rear hatches and alongside hitches, near safety chain connections (usually). Most auto parts stores sell that hose, you can run it just about anywhere.....

Hmmmmmm...... Just don't want to step on any toes.....

Thanks Greg! I suppose, to cut to the chase, I want to name the boat "Raven" but add the tag line beneath "Luna-C". I see there is a Luna-C on the forum, but don't know if the boat is still active....

+1 on Firestone. Installed several sets, never had a problem. I like manual inflate. On board compressor is cool, but really un-needed. FWIW....

So here I sit in Seattle, getting ready to pack some wheel bearings, close on a lot on SJI, and talk to some folks about getting started on a shop/apt., and I'm wondering how to search boat names on C-Brats to ensure I don't name our new boat the same as someone else's CD. I looked at the...

Thanks to all for the warm welcome thus far. Hope to put faces to names someday, maybe in Friday Harbor at the next CBGT!

So Lee (wife) and I took the plunge and bought the '02 C-Dory Tomcat that has been listed here. Boat surveyed well and needs very little. The seller was knowledgeable, friendly and cooperative all around. Our boat has an interesting backstory that took it from about 10 years of dry storage in NJ...

Just completed purchase of this boat. We are planning on going up mid June to get her and bring her to Colorado for the summer, then back to SJI for residence. I'll start a travel thread when we go to get her.
