I agree that the 30" model might be a tad unwieldy. The length of the cockpit is only 52", so a 30" tiller will take up a lot of room. On the other hand my little Honda sits so far aft that part of the 30" will be aft of the transom. I also agree that the 30" model will afford me more...

Thanks TyBoo. Al

Thanks TyBoo! Can you post the dimensions of the one that is new? Looks like it could come in handy now & then.

I have decided to go with the Helmsmate tiller extension. I do not want the extendable version and am undecided whether to go with the 18" fixed size or the 30" fixed size. Any thoughts gentlemen? Thanks! Al

Any possibility of you taking pictures and posting them here TyBoo? Length, weight, etc. would also be good. Perhaps a few of us can "manufacture" our own. :mrgreen:

I'm curious how this conversation went so quickly from a canine attack to firearms. I am also curious how much experience you have with any type of firearm whatsoever. Why do I need a firearm that could maim or kill someone? Because that is what an intruder will be carrying. Where did you...

Same thing happened to me in 2002 while sailing out of Bradenton, FL. Six adults aboard. Five of them ran to the port rail on my Nimble Arctic. Interesting. :mrgreen:

Has anyone put a Permatrim on a Honda 9.9 kicker? I've spent two days reading everything I could find on the Internet about Permatrims. I've talked to anyone willing to talk to me about the Permatrim and have received very different opinions. Reading various "conversations" on C-Brats also...

Matt ~ Any issues with using too much Sta-Bil? I picked some up today and plan to add it to my tanks. Hard to say exactly how many gallons are in each tank though. IIRC my 2006 22 Cruiser has 20 gallon tanks. Does that sound right? Al

Thank you Sir!

I would like to be able to control the 9.9 from the cockpit. Seems like it might make things easier when docking and come in handy while fishing. I do like the idea of a bar and an electric control at the helm though. If Pandy Girl is going to be at the NC gathering perhaps I can get a look...

I have a Honda 90 & a Honda 9.9 on C-Gypsy. Using the tiller on the 9.9 has always been difficult. I have a bracket in place that sets the 9.9 aft several inches to clears the trim tab. Problem is I can hardly reach the tiller & it is very uncomfortable to use for more than 5 minutes. Seems...

Rosemary, Please let me know when you will be around WP. Pam & I would like to take a closer look at some of the modifications you have made to your C-Dory if you don't mind. Hopefully C-Gypsy will be back in the water in a few days... Time for some fun! Al

You're my heroine Erma! Please order one medium and TWO large for Pam & I. I'll let YOU figure out who wears the large! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Al

Roger ~ I was not asking if there are advantages of NMEA 0183 over NMEA 2000. I was asking if there are any advantages of having my radio connected to my GPS via NMEA, and if so what are those advantages? I'm a network engineer by trade, specializing in WAN's, VPN's and HIPAA compliancy...

Bob ~ Thanks for the reply. After reading your post I concede that NMEA is not something I want to pursue to any great degree. One question though; is there any advantage to connecting the GPS to the Garmin radio via NMEA 2000? If so what are the advantages (I guess that was two questions)...

Bob ~ I am just curious... Why do you question the value of NMEA 2000 for me? Again, just curious. I'm always ready to learn!

Thanks Charlie! I will follow up on this as I plan to place an order this week. Time to float the boat! :mrgreen: :beer :mrgreen: :beer

A heartfelt THANK YOU for those who have served. And to the families of those who served. May God bless. Al

Thank you for keeping this event going Erma! I signed up this morning; Pam & I will be there. :lol: If you need any help please PM us. We'll do what we can! Al
