I agree with Marie!!! That said it is still interesting but not sailing as I understand it and I will go watch at some point in the next month. Michael

Tug, Seems like you've been absent here for awhile-the past couple of years you have had a lot of interesting threads-maybe you're all caught up on your boat projects and are just fishin?? Glad you're still out there and thanks for all the good threads-they've been helpful! Michael

Thanks, I'll have to check it out- sounds like just the ticket. Small amounts are always a problem also nice if it doesn't harden to much. In rereading my post I left out the part where I fill the 1/2" hole with thickened epoxy allowing to harden and then drill the pilot hole for the screws...

Wow, As it turns out I'm on my way out to do this very project. In the fall I removed my fuel tanks to refasten them and install a new kicker mount and swim platform. Like Sunbeam I would prefer to thru bolt, it just feels more secure to me but for this part of the job it also seems like over...

Sunbeam Thanks for great thread of your travels thru C-Dory referb and personalization. You are on a similar course to me. I've had my 22 for 2 years now but only recently with my semi retirement I've had time to get started w/ my boat projects. Now I don't have money to do it!! Thus is life...

Bob, I'm looking forward to following your progress on Thisaway. Thank you for all of knowledge and expertise you share with us. On the insulation what kind of foam and how is it covered with vinyl?? I've followed some of the previous insulation projects with interest and at some point would...

I was given a compass from a sailboat that had gone aground and broken up. The lens was scoured by sand but no deep scratches. It was as if it had been sand blasted with a fine grit--difficult to see through. Polished it out by hand with acrylic head light lens polishing kit from a auto parts...

More here, some of them are very good looking. With a little care a plywood/fiberglass/epoxy boat should last a long time! http://www.fishyfish.com/tolmanskiff.html scroll down to pics Michael

Just a thought. Would it be possible to fill the space between he hull and pan with foam?? this would certainly help with the sound and I would think cost less than the coating. Save the coating for living areas in the boat where condensation is a problem. Can foam be poured between them as they...

Welcome aboard!! I'm kind of a jr. mermber myself- fairly newly arrived. I too am an x-sailor doing something I couldn't have envisioned 10 years ago--messing around with a power boat!! There are several C-Brats who I'm sure have the same circumstance. Sure is nice to have a warm dry cabin to...

On the Bartenderboats.com website they have a new displacement modle and the pictures of it show a compass mounted on the cabin roof in front of the helm-ie outside. This should get it away from electroniocs and still be easily visable. the only downside I can see is that salt spray on the...

Does anyone have a generic boat cover for their 22' Cruiser that they like? If you have one you don't like, why? would be helpful too. I need a cover for my 22', not for traveling but just to keep it clean parked in my yard (lots of oak trees and dust). I wash it only to have it look a mess in...

Tug, be interested if your BRM-4 does indeed self launch your Delta. I have a 22# and need a new roller--says on the website that it will work for both our anchors. MIchael

Just to revive this thread--Joe, I picked up a ladder just like the one you used for your bow ladder on Craig's list for $25 about two months ago. I've been trying to figure out how I was going to mount it on a small boarding/swim platform that a 22 has room for, it was getting more involved...

One deep navy--XL one heathered blue--XL Thank for getting this together. Michael

I don't know you but I do know the feeling. Yater (13+ yr golden retreiver) and I send our love and sympaththy! Michael

Thanks guys for the info, I've got a lot to learn. I'm excited about that and being part of this great community. I guess my next purchase will be a new charger ( a good one) and soon a new generator. I have a new kicker on the way and no end of projects to get started! Harvey, thank you...

Hi!! I'm a new member/new C-Dory owner. Been soaking up this site for the last few weeks--lots to learn. The boat I purchased is an'89 22 crusier. It has a'89 Johson 70. It also has a full load of electronics and Wallas. A two battery system with a trickle charger (needs a real 3-stage...
