    Impeller brands, quality and costs

    Just my own opinion and possibly overkill but I like to know where I am when I start out on something. I would change out the water pump kit and save the removed impeller for an emergency. Generally, if the rubber is not cracked, checked, and will regain its original shape (ie the legs...

    29 Venture

    More info may help in identifying your boat to begin to be able to give a value. I wasn't aware that they made a 29' Venture. I thought that 26' was the largest Venture. Anyway more info would be helpful, such as year, electronics package, trailer, canvas, etc, etc.

    Best shallow space bilge pump?

    JKSWOR, I did the search of the 'dry bilge system' and saw the video of the entire assembly. I see you have a 25' the same year as mine and I am wondering how this set up works. It seems to be a fairly low volume set up using a small diameter clear plastic tubing. Do you use this in addition...

    How do you prevent trailer connector contacts from corroding

    I also agree that a dielectric grease is the proper way to attempt to reduce corrosion. It would also be a good idea to have that cleaner to clean out the dust/grime build up occasionally. The idea is to prevent salt water from contacting the electrical conduction areas and the grease will be...

    VF90A 4 STROKE.

    Sometimes it is cheaper to just take it to the shop and have them plug it in to identify the problem. Might have saved you buying new filters and plugs. I suspect it is some electronic sensor that is giving the motor signal to shut down. How long is the initial break in oil supposed to be...

    Fwd deck seat

    Would this be use while at anchor or underway? From my personal experience with the 25' i'm not inclined to allow anybody on the bow while underway as it creates a possible safety hazard. There are too many unexpected instances which require immediate response from the pilot possibly throwing...

    Another Wallas thread - with Canadian content

    We've had the Sea Witch since May of 2021 and have used the Wallace stove a fair amount mostly as a heater during the shoulder seasons. When I brought the boat home I went through every system on the boat and tested the operations of each. When it came to the Wallace stove I replaced the fuel...

    Big 'ole cooler to double as bench seat?

    Hunter, I don't have a 22 but have had a 65qt RTIC cooler that was a knock off of the YETI. You could jump up and down on it, a beast for sure. Good if you keep them full and aren't getting in and out of them often. You should easily be able to find them online. Good luck.

    Molded insert replacements for cockpit of 25"

    Thanks Jody, that looks very similar to mine. I've got the faceplate but not the bottom plate or the dividers.

    Molded insert replacements for cockpit of 25"

    Thanks Patrick, I saw that one and it looks pretty close. The netting on that could be changed to put in the hard front retainer wall from the original inserts. I'll have to check the measurements for opening on the existing set up. That is where I store my 15lb downrigger weights when not in...

    Molded insert replacements for cockpit of 25"

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Steve I am unable to post a picture of the insert at this time, but the picture in Colby's post is as near as I can remember identical. I'm not sure of the measurements at this time either. Colby, I will check with NMI and hopefully come up with a solution...

    22 Cruiser Enclosure Advice

    I would definitely go talk to another fabricator. The folks that make canvas enclosures are proficient at bending tubing tubing to various hull configurations. The bending dies are fairly standard so anyone with a background in tubing bending should be able to match what you have. If you...

    C-Dory 22 Cruiser Interior Rebuild

    Congratulations on you getting a 22. I guess my question would be how did the cabinets bottoms get rotted? It may not be a big deal but I believe I would check the deck for signs of rotting also. Hopefully it is isolated to the cabinets only. No matter there is plenty of resources within...

    Rhea 800

    I'm not so sure this boat is at all in the same class as a CDory. A beautiful boat for sure. As far as trailerability, I'm going to give it a failing mark. After having owned an Atlas Acadia 25 with a full keel, I assure you that this boat will have to be on a pretty tall bunked trailer to...

    Cdory 22 and 25; issues to look for when buying

    Wallin, the 25' that was on the 20th I believe is in Santa Rosa, Ca. Looks like a good one from the description given. I also have a 25' 2007 vintage. Just a little advise on trying to land a 25. They tend to go fast when listed. Have cash ready, get the boat tied up for with survey or...
