Les, I was surprised to see that you are not competing with Ranger Tug or CD25, with no shore power, refridgerator, water heater, or the like. I guess I misunderstood the intended mission of the boat. If it is really going to be a CD22 or M215 with a head compartment, then it seems like we...

Hi Les, My current boat is a CD22 and I am thinking of a larger boat next, so I like the idea. As a bigger guy (6'3" tall and 200+ lbs) I would like to see the M25 accomodate someone my size. Specifically, I would like signifcant headroom in the cabin...enough to stand up straight with an...

Mark, Yes, it is the September issue. Rob

This months issue of Heartland Boating has a cover shot of of 5 C-Dorys traveling from Guttenberg, Iowa to Hawkeye Marina in Dubuque. There is also a nice 4+ page article on C-Dorys and C-Brats. Rob

Harper, I was able to add a second bilge pump and discharge hose without removing the gas tank. It wasn't easy and involved alot of reaching and stretching, but I got it done. On my boat there were two outlets...one for the original bilge pump and one for the port lazarette, which was set up...

Hi Ed, If none of the new lube comes out the vent, how do you know when you have enough lube pumped in? Are you just putting in a known quantity? Have you worked out a way to change the motor oil on the water? Thanks, Rob

The Wallas 1300 is a stand-alone, forced hot air furnace. It works very well on our 22. If I were outfitting a bigger boat, I would consider a larger size furnace. Rob http://www.scanmarineusa.com/wallas_furnaces.html

I just finished installing hatches and removing the foam from under my v-berth. Installing the hatches wasn't bad, but removing the foam was a major pita. In my boat there were 3 plugs of about 1 1/2" diameter under the mattress. The plugs filled the holes used to put the foam under the...

Here are some pictures of our Wallas 1300 installation: http://www.c-brats.com/modules.php?set_ ... _album.php It's on the forward end of the galley beneath the sink. We have had it a few years now and like it very well. Rob

Nick, One last grill question for you. Are you able to keep the grill mounted in the rod holder while running the boat? Or do you have to remove and stow it somewhere? Thanks. Rob

Hi Nick, I looked at your photos but did not see the grill you mentioned. What kind of grill is it? Where did you mount it? Have fun. Rob

Nick, If you put your thread in the Grand Adventures forum, then it will show up on the home page in the most recently active list. More people might see it that way. Have fun. I would like to take the same trip some day. Rob

With the weight and cost the same, there is no doubt I would take the 115. Rob

Thanks for posting Greg. Is the finish nice enough as it is or do you plan to put a top coat of something else on? Please let us know how it works. If you are happy with it I think I will give it a try. I am guessing one gallon would be enough for an entire 22 v-berth. Rob

RCurry, I think you are talking about a chain locker enclosure vs. Kevrangray talking about a solid cabin bulkhead. Pics below. Rob

How about some details of the epoxy paint? What brand? Available where? How much did you use? Thanks. Rob

Kevin, I am glad your dealer was willing to work with you to get it done at a more reasonable price. It looks good. Take care. Rob

Maybe this is it. If so, it's in Doryman's album.
