    1984 C-Dory 18

    Change the water pump, fuel filter, oil and filter, and I would replace the fuel lines and bulbs. Dump the old fuel and start fresh. i would also pull the pick up line out of the fuel tanks. then ends are brass and have a habit of corroding and falling off. Also the old pick up lines will get...

    Talk me out of buying a C-Dory 22 Cruiser

    As T.R. said it depends on what you wantto do the most of. There are few boats at 22ft that make good cruising/fishing boats. Lots of better cruising boats and lots more of better fishing boats but very few that do both under 250k that you can put on a trailer and get 4 mpg. Just as a comparison...

    Repowering 16' angler, thinking of yamaha 70 4-stroke

    so what is the formula for figureing out Hp rating? I mean ever cdory is based on a design that was made for a 70hp motor. Now many are powered with 90s and 115hp. Very little has been changed in the design. Nothing at the transom other then the amount of v or more to the point less of a lack of...

    Repowering 16' angler, thinking of yamaha 70 4-stroke

    To me the sticker is about the weight of the motor not necessarily the HP. So if the 50 and 70 weight the same I would go wih the 70. better to use 50 hp of a 70 hp motor then to need more then 50 and not have it. Also get a bigger boat or fewer friends.

Drain your tank and pour in 2 bottles, cheaper then bleach, and let it sit for a day after you turn on the pump for a few seconds. you want the vodka in the pump and the lines all the...

    Towing an airhead inflatable

    My only tip is to not use any metal clips, drings or fasteners when connecting the straps. Its quick and easy to use metal d rings but if the strap breaks then the d ring is coming back to the boat at a high rate of speed and can, and has, killed people. Only use knots or loops to make...

    Honda 9.9 Starting Problems

    Define getting fuel. There is fuel going from the tank to the carbs but is it getting thru the carbs? and is it getting thru all parts of the carbs. I have been down this path before. A small piece of goop was pluging one of the tiny passages. Until you pull the whole carb apart and blow air...
