    New Lazarette Covers

    Butyl rubber tape, white. I buy a roll of tape that is about 3/4” wide by 1/8” thick. Zero leaks and I use it for almost everything topside. Just put in a new anchor windless on my 26. The windless and the anchor locker door have been bedded with butyl rubber. Some fool previously used silicone...

    Outboard won’t start I only get a single click

    Atpnw, Most outboards that have a failure as you have experienced, have catastrophic damage inside of the engine. Usually overhaul of an older powerhead that has internal damage is not cost effective.

    Looking for a mattress barrier to reduce unwanted moisture.

    Gary, That system works well, I had it on a previous boat and never an issue with moisture. My present 26 has a different system, which also works well, but there are more bit parts to mess with. https://defender.com/en_us/froli-sleep-systems

    Replacement help seat fit 25

    Jkswor, My seat was absolutely miserable. I looked at many high end options, but most were to wide for the given space. I wanted comfort, no vinyl (too hot and sticky in the summer), needed it to fold forward to aid access to the sink and counter and wanted arm rest. I found a wonderful seat...

    Transom height measurement

    The old short shaft standards were 15” (short), 20” (long) and 25” (extra long). Of course outboard powered boats have gotten bigger and there are fewer inboard outboard boats, so now there are 30” shafts. Japan’s outboards have consistently added 2” additional inches to all of their outboards...

    Solar powered vent size for Airhead Composting Toilet

    My experience with the Nicro solar vent has been positive. I absolutely do not want anything connected to a boat battery, then I am not on the boat. My Air Head came with the 12VDC muffin fan at the top of the vent hose... I removed it and put a 4" Marinco Nicro solar fan above the head...

    window help!

    Sam, On Osprey, a wiper blade fell off and the wiper arm made a smiley face into the laminated glass. I intended to replace the glass myself, but after lots of homework, deemed it better, to pay my local glass shop to do it. The hatch on my 22 leaked and that one I took care of. It is very...

    helm seat mount

    PCG, When I put a new "off the shelf (from Tractor Supply) seat" in my boat, I had the same issue. I removed the rubber covering from the adjustment leaver and cut the rod back, then put the rubber leave back on, so that is was not an interference. The seat that I purchased folds forward, has...

    Motor Spare parts recomendations

    Serpa4, Most items have been covered, but also a syringe without the needle (Kroger or other pharmacy stores usually give them to me for free), for filling the steering fluid at the helm. When I do add fluid, I put some steering fluid in a small paper cup, then using the syringe, suck a small...

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

    Colby, Just wanted to add to comments, that my vent pipe/hose, went straight up to the overhead like yours. The compartment is so small, that it bugged me, because it was not visually pleasing to me. The hose was not really long enough to begin with, so it was almost straight, between the...
