In the recent photo activity, last week I saw a Cbrat who uploaded project photos to his album where he removed his table and rebuilt a new floor storage painted white, and added two pedestal seats. Now I cannot find this album for the life of me. Does anyone remember the name of the vessel...

Sure seems to be more and more snarkiness like this on this site. Too many "river gathering folks" looking down their noses around here. And for the record, he got his asking price for this 29 ye old boat.

After meticulously attacking every screw in my boat with the "overdrilling thickened epoxy "technique 2 years ago, I realized yesterday there was one spot right beneath my nose that I had overlooked. The three hinges for my cabin door. "Surley the factory wouldnt have put screws into dry balsa...

All those Bayliner guys are the same...

Thank you attaway and friends for covering everything thoroughly. As fate would have it, there was indeed no fuse. Im not very happy about it, but many lessons have been learned. All other wiring looks professional and new. This outlet looked 30yrs old and mickey moused, the reason which led to...

All good points, thank you all....

Yes, the outlet is very old and wiggly.... everything seems good now. Any chance of further damage?

Replaced two older looking wires today that were connected to the cigarette lighter socket. When i finished and connected the battery back up, the entire cabin filled with smoke. I quickly disconnected the battery. These same two wires were completely burnt, all the insulation gone. I removed...

I agree this boat likely needs a lot of help. I must mention however that whenever these posts about values come up, I am always left scratching my head. I see and hear of 6-10k estimated value 22 C-Dorys all the time, but I can count on three fingers the amount of C-Dorys I have seen sell for...

Remind me not to buy Nomad when she comes on the market. :? I have a good friend who has been an oyster farmer for two decades. He literally runs his 2005 yamaha in the bay to fill orders 365 days a year. Swears hes never flushed his motor once, and that with the constant use, salt never has a...

I Love my C-dory for many reasons, the way it looks is a bonus. It is very economical, easy to maintain, and holds its value very well. Many serious offshore fishermen have referred to my boat as "a cute little bath tub toy", but when I see them 45 miles offshore, I am always sure to point out...

I would recommend going with a 22, especially for two people overnighting. I have noticed many c-brats starting with 16s or 19s, and when its all said and done they end up with a 22. There is a 19 moored here in Garibaldi. I don't know the owner, but you could see quite a bit of it from the dock.

Fender/bumper clips....Same fitting works for taco rod holder, and for hanging a fender.

What is the process to get through the major dams on the Columbia River in my boat? I know Bonneville, The Dalles, John Day, and McNary all have massive barges who pass through every day, but how would an average Joe like myself go about doing this if I wanted to cruise a few days up the...

Tuna bleeder, out of the way, wont tip over.

Just got 8 tuna out of garibaldi. I learned everything i know about tuna at ifish.net. You will find everything you need to know there... I trolled 2 5" swim baits, 2 cedar plugs, and 2 clones behind yo zuri divers, connected to handlines.

If I remember to bring it, I have a .22 Sig Sauer I use for halibut. It also could be utilized to fire a distress signal while offshore if I ran out of flares. I DO know tuna fishermen who bring shot guns and a case of clay pigeons and shoot a few rounds, between the afternoon bite, and when the...
