Wrenny, You'll look at that book years from now and remember exactly the time, place and circumstances surrounding what happened to it. That is really priceless, in my opinion. Did you realize that some of the best ideas and memories come from the times that we are not in our normal routine...

There's also a thing called "prop sing." Google it and you'll learn a bunch. Might be what you have with that noisy prop. On a another boat I had, changed to a different prop and it made noise at a certain rpm. No noise under and above that rpm range.

I would put the old prop on and see what happens.

What a neat trip already Jay! Yes, I agree with jkidd, have Wrenny document the trip. It will be very memorable from her perspective.

The crew of Kim Christine had a great time at this year's Friday Harbor C-Brat Get Together! Thank yous to Organizers Gary and Colleen and from the C-Dory Factory NMI Michael and Alana Millison! The potluck was fantastic with so many delicious dishes. The nautical quiz put together by Gary and...

Oh Boy, getting excited here! Just brought home the boat from Sportcraft Marina in Portland with a brand new Suzuki 175! Old Honda 150 gave it up out at Sekiu fishing so we got her a new motor a couple years early! Happy that Jay and Jolee are out at Sucia already. Super excited that the...

Just when Area 10 was open in March. Got one 7 lb keeper and released a few under sized. Looking forward to shrimping next month and then salmon starting in July through fall.

1) Put the lower unit on that is priced in the middle of the range. 2) Run it. 3) Keep on eye on newer used motors or... 4) When you sell the other 16, use some of the proceeds to purchase a brand new motor for the boat you are going to keep. That's what I would do and I over analyze...

Are you talking about the 16 you are keeping or selling? If it is the one you are selling, just fix it and send it down the road. If it's the one you are keeping then you'll have to think about your piece of mind. If it were me, I'd probably put the lower unit on it and run it. Then keep an...

All those things to maintain is a lot for sure. When I owned 2 boats, a cruiser and a fishing boat, travel trailer, 3 vehicles and the house, it was too much. We know have one boat, the 25 Cruiser, which serves both cruising and fishing. It sure has taken the pressure off. My suggestion...

IMHO I believe it is best to just purchase a lower unit, period. It will fit. Gear ratio is of no significance when your motor is 40/50 hp on a 16 C-Dory. I hope you don't take this wrong, not trying to offend, but try to avoid, at all costs, "Analysis Paralysis." It has bitten me in the...

Anyone interested in going on a group cruise to Princess Louisa Inlet after the Friday Harbor Gathering, please let it be known on this thread. I have talked to a few C-Brats and so far we have about 4 boats that want to go and a couple of C-Brats that now own other brands who are planning to...

I've been following your journey through this challenge on Facebook so Kim and I are glad you and Patty are both home safe! As others have said, keep up with your PT. You'll want to be out enjoying your boat this summer and catching those delicious crab. Best wishes for a speedy recovery from...

Good for you! It sure looked well taken care of in the pictures and you got a very good deal! Congratulations!

Good work on your part. I always enjoy reading about how others approach problems and then work through to a solution. As for uploading photos...you need to request a photo album from one of the C-Brats excellent owners and moderators: TyBoo At the top menu bar to the far right is "Help"...

That's why most of us purchase good, used boats. Well, at least I do. I feel more satisfaction in finding a boat that is completely functional and then adding some new accessories to it. Even if we came into a bunch of money I don't think I could pull the trigger and purchase a new boat. I'm...
