That is a truly fantastic deal! You should have no problem selling. Good luck!

Stupid question but....... Why wouldn't a 2013 be covered by warranty?

I know this is kind of off topic but...... We are in tine water year round so when the boat was new I paid the big bucks and had the bottom sealed with Interprotect 2000E and then bottom painted. I happen to have good experience with Micron CSC back in the Chesapeake so I asked for a couple of...

Quote: I can't comment on Fluid Marine, I think they tried hard but were saddled with too much bad stuff left over from the end of the Reynolds era. It was a short run. I can only say that I had zero warranty defects in our Fluid built boat. The only thing that PBH did when I sent the boat...

Our 2008 Venture is a CDO but the certificate of origin identifies Fluid as the builder. I think there was some overlap.

Forgive my ignorance. I thought it was the other way around. I was under the impression that my little Merc. 3.3 was a rebranded Tohatsu manufactured motor.

Just a quick heads up. There are many iterations of the CD 22 and more than one of the 23. The Cape Cruiser 23 had the "next generation" hull that was developed from the 22 original but may, or may not, have had all the creature comforts/unnecessary additions built in that Fluid Marine put in...

Looks like you got a really great boat. Well done! We have a 23 built by Fluid and have loved it from day one.

Hi Les. I have an interest in how the market is moving for smaller boats like the CD and the Marinauts . My impression is that the GFC and the aging of the boomers moved the market up the line so that boats in the 150k range (think Ranger or Cutwater) are finding a much easier time of it...

It's always good to have another C-Brat on the Island. Welcome. I don't know where you bought the boat. We had ours from new at Port Boathouse in Port Alberni. They have always been great to deal with. They won't do canvass themselves but they will know who you should talk to. They did stuff...

Thanks again for the tip. I spent a very pleasant hour yesterday. Like a kid in a candy store! I asked why they were not shown on the WM site and was told that the old store in Portland had been deleted and nobody knew how to add the new one. Go figure!

That sounds perfect! A BIG store and no sales tax! Good info. from C-Brats when the Storefinder on West Marine's website doesn't show this store. MUCH appreciated.

Thanks for the thought but I am "stuck" at WM. A kind person gave me a gift certificate.

We are heading south through the Seattle area to Portland this weekend and I want to stop at WM and do some shopping. Now we all know that (except for C-Dorys) size matters. The WM in Friday Harbor is excellent but quite small and limited in selection. I need a BIG one. If I wait until I get to...

Here's a happyCanuck with a burgee on Vancouver Island. It arrived this morning. Thanks so much

Good to hear you got fixed up. They are good people with which to do business.

When anchored out one evening I had little else to do than enjoy the surroundings and think about my anchor. At the time I was not tied off, simply relying on the clutch of the Lewmar windlass. Since there was little or no wind or current the rode dropped almost vertically from the roller. In...

Bob is absolutely right with the info. You could check www.diamondseaglaze.com . They have a link under Products for parts that has drawings etc. http://www.diamondseaglaze.com/section.asp?pageid=9787 it is to the AdvanTec store and you can order online. I am not sure where the parts come from...

Really sorry that we are causing you so much extra work. Thanks again for everything.

A really useful question and a great response. I had been thinking of such a setup in the boathouse since the boat is in the water year round. I hadn't thought about build up. duh! :oops: The depth under the boat is still about 8 ft even at low tide so I would have a real problem and it would...
