    Balsa Core Delamination

    Got a hunch if he is having a problem like that a lot of others do too. Just haven't been discovered yet. Why would they go to only caulking the bulkhead? Seems like asking for trouble, especially with a boat that isn't self bailing.

    Any Clue What These Are?

    I think some of the alcohol stoves use similar fiddles.

    Removing the alcohol stove REPLACING with Wallace

    I put one on my sailboat and it worked pretty well. Cooks pretty fast. Puts out a lot of heat, is a little noisy though.

    Twin Honda 40’s to twin Honda 60’s

    They have an option of a larger gear case. Which did you go with?

    Ranger Tug R-25

    There is another line of Ranger sailboats that were built in Washington. Not as competitive as the Mull line but still pretty decent boats.

    Orca in PNW

    Actually a pretty remarkable presentation. If you watch the first minute you will likely watch it all.

    Performance question

    4 adults with all that gear I would say you did pretty well. 11 mph is not a very efficient speed in that boat.

    Where to locate furnace exhaust

    I put a wallas 1300 in the last C Dory 22 I had and went to quite a bit of trouble to make it unobtrusive and route power, fuel and air to best advantage. If I were to do it again I would go the simpler route and just set it on the counter in the starboard rear corner, pointed forward. That...

    Bottom Paint Needed For One Month @ Everrett Marina

    in my experience the growth and barnacles and such seemed to really start taking hold at about one month. And this was after prepping with a good wax job.

    Camper back on a 23" C-dory.

    I always took mine off and slipped it into the cabin.

    At anchor CPAP machine

    I priced the purpose made batteries for the c pap but way too expensive.

    retired geezers

    It's a cool but different feeling every day is Saturday. But your boat will keep you plenty busy.

    At anchor CPAP machine

    I should add I did not run the humidifier.

    At anchor CPAP machine

    I have a resmed and used a 450 watt inverter to run it. I was running it off of a group 31 battery. I also ran my engle fridge at the same time off the same battery and as long as I ran the engine the next day for an hour or two everything worked out fine. I would think with a decent solar...

    C-Dory prices

    In a month or two OPA will sell at that price. That is a nice looking boat.

    Webasto / Espar knockoffs

    I watched the you tube videos of those Chinese heaters and compared to my wallas 1300 they are extremely loud. That would be a problem for me. Sitting next to an operating 1300 you can barely hear it.

    C-Dory 16 for large people?

    I am over 6' and about 230 and the guy that fishes with me is even larger and we fished offshore for several years in a 16 without problem. Just have to be a little careful before two people make a quick move in the same direction at the same time. Headroom was never a problem.

    Roof rail leaks

    I have had really good luck with butyl tape I purchased from Sailrite. Easy to use and not messy like caulk.

    ‘Deadliest Catch’ boat capsizes, 3 dead

    This bar is actually one of the safest and quickest bars to cross on the Oregon coast. Incoming tide close or on slack makes it pretty easy. The crab boats that go out of there aren't much of a contest for the bar when they are loaded and coming in on a following sea. They don't have the...

    It's a little green or blue disc, about 1/2 inch in diameter underneath just off center of stove. Has a green plug that plugs into the board. It makes contact with the sheet metal under the burner.
