    C-Dory Sightings

    My added album picture is a little indistinct due to the site resizing. My original shows it to be an unnamed C Dory with a green accent stripe and a grey inflatable on the cabin top. SeaRam is grey accent and has a radar arch. It was not me, I was on shore taking the pictures. I sighted...

    Yamaha internal anodes

    Has anyone ever checked the internal anodes on Yamaha outboards. My manual (for the 100hp) indicates the location and instruction for checking. Involves the removal of bolts - are there any gasket issues etc that anyone has encountered? cheers - Dave

    C-80 problem

    The wiring connections appear to be detailed on pages 4 and 5 of the Raystar 125 installation manual. The term RTCM is a standard somewhat like NMEA. Am I stating the obvious or adding to the confusion? cheers - Dave

    C-80 problem

    I don't have my C70 (C80 installation appears the same) yet but I have been downloading PDF's from Raymarine. I don't know which manuals come with the equipment but possibly their PDF manuals "C Series Display Installation Manual" document number 87020-2, April 2004 and the Raystar 125 manual...

    100 Great Washington / BC Waypoints for C-80

    Great files!! I have a C-70 (Vancouver Boat Show amazing low price) on the way and have been getting genned-up via the Raymarine site, especially the entering/transfer of waypoints from spreadsheets (I use OpenOffice) with a CF card. We will probably hit Princess Louisa around the time you...

    Axle location

    Have ordered new Road Runner 4500LB to replace my EZLoader and want to get it right this time. I have looked a many album pictures and see that on a tandem trailered 22 Cruiser the forward axle hub is generally in line anywhere between the cabin bulkhead and 8"or so forward. Given a million...

    Sticky Steering

    The Davis nut seemed like a good idea to me. Installed it on my 100hp Yamaha however had to do quite a bit of filing on the lands of the nut to get it to turn enough to seat tightly. I used the supplied plastic plug and found 90 gear oil the ideal lubricant. The problem that occurred was...

    Bunk Trailer

    Seriously thinking of getting rid of my new EZLoader that I have never really been happy with. Checking out a Road Runner 4800, www.roadrunnerltd.com (not sure if it is available in the USA) and one configuration option is rollers in front and bunks at rear. Has anyone had experience with...

    REPORTING BOARDER CROSSINGS.

    Much like the bureaucratic rhetoric we have. I am thinking it may be easier just to produce a passport. I entered the USA at Roche Harbor last summer with no great problem (she just threw my orange and killer homemade chili in the trash - it had cooked Canadian ground beef in it) Dave

    Raymarine C70 mounting

    Thanks to all who took the time to give their preference/ideas on mounting the chartplotter. Since I do wear bifocals and the eyes are getting weak with age I deferred to Dave S location; directly in front on the dash. Cheers - Dave

    Raymarine C70 mounting

    Almost made up my mind to buy/install a C70 with chartplotter function only, at this point anyway. I would like to do a hanging mount, does anyone have a pic of their installation? to what degree does it obstruct vision? Thanks - Dave

    mattress topper

    I have just re-mattressed in my house and now surplus a queen size memory foam topper that I bought from Costco. I had intended way back to get one for my v-berth in any event. Was it difficult to cut? what did you cut it with? was it queen or king and how did you orient it? I don't plan on...

    EZ Loader trailer for CD22

    Fran Sea Yes, the "sealed and solid" block.... That is why I was a bit shocked to find it with about a quarter of an inch of water in the bottom. The Achilles heel appears to be the mounting bolts on the "block". EZ Loader sez: “plus you'll never have to change another light bulb...

    EZ Loader trailer for CD22

    I bought a 2005 EZloader trailer in May. To date both sealed LED tail lights assemblies have been replaced. The first one was after about six launches when I noticed water inside. I removed it and found no obvious entry point and the water did not seem to drain out. The dealer told me that...

    C-Dory floatation

    Shortly after I bought my 22 cruiser. May 2002 I called the factory on this issue. "They" told me that it has positive flotation - buoyant material in the bow and would not sink. Dave

    Anyone ever weigh their boat and trailer?

    I tend to agree with the other posts on Ezloader trailers. It was very difficut to adjust bunks and winch to boat etc, dealer didn't seem too knowledgeable or helpful, quality was so so. If I had to do it again I don't think Ezloader would even make my short list. Time will tell on the...
