    SO WHAT DID YOU DO WITH OR ON YOUR C-DORY TODAY??

    What broke on the seat? They are pretty “stout”. We did break one of the cheap plastic hinges, but I managed to find white exact replacements on eBay. Those nudibranch pics are cool. 8)

    “Wild caught” vs “wild”. Semantics? Or fraudulent representation? :?: A “wild caught” hatchery fish is not a “wild” fish.

    Winter bilge area

    Grab your pink anti freeze now. There is an alleged nationwide shortage. I just paid $6 for a gallon at Wallyworld. In past years it was $2.

    General Maintenance Out Board

    Fortunately the only thing I’ve had to pay a pro to do was a re-seal of the lower unit after 10 yrs of use and a repair of the skeg after hitting a submerged rock. I wasn’t at the helm when that occurred. For the re-seal, I drained the lower leg oil as I do every spring and discovered water...

    no need for trailer strap

    Word. Bow strap. Check. Safety chain. Check. S/S turnbuckle & chain from bow eye to trailer tongue. Check. Rear straps on port and starboard. Check. I remember working in Honolulu and I responded to a freeway collision. A new Boston Whaler with twin 200s slid about 100’ down the...

    Dickinson on a CD25 - your BBQ?

    I had a custom rail made for my splashwell. I mount our grill there, along with other items. We rarely use the three rear curtains of our camper back.

    Looking at a 25' C-dory: Advice please

    Has stayed on. No lifting edges. I forget what size I ordered. Measure it and go from there. It can be cut down with a sharp razor knife. I went from just below the bow eye to where the smooth bow ends under the boat, just prior to the “keel”.

    Looking at a 25' C-dory: Advice please

    Check the brass bow/keel strip. With salt water under the berth, it’s possible that a screw or screws pierced the fiberglass. Known issue in the past. I removed ours, plugged the screw holes with West Systems and installed a Keel-Guard adhesive one after another owner returned to their boat...

    Solar panel on 2 batteries vs one panel for each battery

    Dr Bob is correct as usual. I installed a mini Add-A-Battery in our 2006 and removed the original battery switch. A couple of years ago, I added a simple solar system; 110 watt semi flex panel with 30 amp PWM controller. Controller is attached to the house battery but once it tops out, the...

    boiling water

    FYI check Costco business. They used to sell a stainless one burner butane stove for $25. Perfect for what you need. I’m sure Bezos’ company will have them too. It’s what we use and as Patti noted, we more “steam” them vs actually boiling.
