Just made a reservation for our boat, Wood Duck. Was told the harbor will be very busy during our gathering. Don't wait, get your reservation in. See you all in Bellingham & Nanaimo. Ken & Lynn

Many thanks for the responses to the gray water issue. A pan in the sink works great for us. Had thought of that, but didn't know if anyone was more creative. Practicality beats creative any time. Ken aka: Wood Duck Bend, Oregon

Greetings, We will be using our 25' C Dory for dry land camping including the trip to Lake Powell and I'm looking for suggestions for sink (gray water) water disposal in campgrounds. Jim (Wild Blue) chronicaled his modification in his photo album (102-105) and that looks practical and easy...

Greetings, I hope that my fellow CBRAT web site users will not only thank the two fine web masters who make this web site possible, but send them green backs as well. It takes lots of time and money to do what they are doing. How fortunate we are not only to enjoy our fine boats, but to have...

The boat is definitely not manufactured by C Dory. It is built by Sea Sport, which is also a fine boat, but requires much more horse power and fuel to get you where you wanna go. May not be as stable in rough water as the C Dory, but it will go faster and get you to the next fuel dock before...

I recently contacted Frank regarding a warranty question. He solved the issue which was with a minor fiber glass problem located in 2 places inside the cabin of our 2004- 25' Cruiser. Frank authorized the work via the phone, I had the work done and in less than a week I had check covering the...

I think we should continually bash C Dory quality until no one will take an even straight accross the board trade of a C Dory for a Bayliner. I have owned 2 C Dory boats (22' & 25' Cruisers) and have enjoyed the boats very much. I don't see any benefit of bashing C Dory quality on a public...

I understand there is a place named Flaming Gorge in Utah and described as a mini Lake Powell and just as interesting. Any opinions, comments from those who have visited or cruised this area? If Flaming Gorge is a mini Lake Powell it is closer to those of us in the Northwest. Is Flaming Gorge...

Does the Permatrim make sense on a Homda 150 that powers a 25' cruiser? thanks, Ken wood duck

Greetings, I am aware of the proposed CBGT at Anacortes the week following the Friday Harbor gathering. However, I don't know how to sign up for the Anacortes gathering because of the lack of a sign up list under "event signups". Can the Anacortes gathering be added to the event signup...

Would like advice about a good shop manual for a Honda 150, model year 2004 or 2005. Any suggestions as to personal preferences for a manual and where to buy one as cheap (inexpensively) as possible? I can't or won't do much of the service myself, but it's nice to have some knowledge of what...

Automatic transmission cooler. I tow a 25' C Dory cruiser with a 1/2 ton GMC pick up which has a 5.3 liter engine & have not experienced any problems towing my boat where ever we go such as mountain passes, etc.. I have 50,000 miles on the truck. I do have an aluminum trailer which is...

Greetings, Don't neglect to drain your lines this in preperation for the winter. I didn't, it was my first winter in Bend and guess what? My hot water tank froze and cracked. I'm alot more familiar with my water system now. I was able to remove the water tank and have it welded. Replaced...

Greetings, We have signed up for the Gulf Island-Canada cruise, but have concerns, which are: 1. We must dock every night, 2. We have a yellow Labrador retriever, 3. We will be unable to cruise for the entire two (2) week period. We don't want to create a problem for the group with our needs...

I have a 1/2 ton GMC Sierra with a 5.3 engine, tow package, 4 wheel drive and nothing has been done to enhance the performance of the vehicle. It is stock. We have a 25' Cruiser and the truck pulls just fine. I do have a Magic Tilt aluminum trailer (weighs approx. 900 lbs.) and I installed...

Anyone had a positive or negative service with T Mobile in the Puget Sound region? Please advise.

You have to do what you have to do. I doubt there is anyone out there who would do what you do for free and I appreciate your efforts very much. If running ads on the web site is necessary, do it. Thanks very much. Ken Ray
