    C-22 Open with three motors!

    There was a 22 for sale way back that had two 25's I believe. Lots of ways to skin a cat but in Alaska I see on the web that they often run a bigger kicker than we might here in the lower 48 more of as a "get home" in a shorter time against tides/wind than as a trolling motor. Sort of a split...

    C-22 Open with three motors!

    So this C-22 Open has three motors, two 60 HP Yammies and an 8 HP center mounted. I thing the transom has a metal plate to beef it up. Can any 22 or 25 take three motors like this? Criagslist link for picutres: https://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/boa/ ... 58177.html Bob Jarrard

    Sailboats in a marina.

    All day suckers, soap on a rope, butch wax for your crew cut, nickle phone calls, cherry sodas, fireflies in a Mason jar, watermelons with seeds, the big food treat - Swanson TV dinner eaten off a tray in front of the TV, frozen mugs at the A&W, all you can drink orange juice from the stand...

    Sailboats in a marina.

    I lived in central Florida years ago and I remember going to pick up a date at her parent's house and I noticed that they had a punt/jon boat tied to the back porch rail. They were about 500+ yards from the beach (their place was on Long Boat Key). I asked why they had a boat sitting on the...

    Sailboats in a marina.

    Now I do not see much difference between no motor and a motor that is not used or not usable. We see lots of houseboats here at Lake Mead with either no motors or motors (especially in-boards - dare I say Volvos?) that do not run. Also cabin cruisers in the same condition. We have a small farm...

    Looking for single burner gimbled propane stove

    I had mentioned earlier in the thread about the butane stoves: "I use the small under $20 butane stoves. I just bought a brand new one at the 99 Cents only store for $6.50 with a carrying case and I buy the fuel carrtidges at Asian markets for $1.00 each. Build yourself a gambaled bracket and...

    Looking for single burner gimbled propane stove

    I have several one pound bottle stoves, word of caution, they rust, especially in salt air environments but I sometimes find themsafety on sale for well under $20.00. Bob is right, gas is dangerous. If you can stand the smell and slow heating, alcohol is much safer. I use a variety of DYI...

    Looking for single burner gimbled propane stove

    I have spent many an hour hunting for this item. The classic is the no longer made Bremer Sea Swing. They can go for as much as $400 and use one pound propane bottles or an adapter to a larger gas bottle with hose. Here is a link to a home built version at...

    All chain rode?

    I once owned a Cape Dory 36 sailboat. Big full keel hull and I had no anchor lifting help other than my arms and back. I had a CQR, 50 feet of chain and 450 of nylon line. Also another 200 feet of nylon to add to the total length if we went to San Clemente Island (the Navy makes you moor way off...

    2019 Halibut

    I went to Doc Warner's in Excursion Inlet not far from Gustavus last year. Great trip and all three of us on our boat brought home 100 pounds of halibut fillets caught on five days of fishing. We could have caught more weight of fish but it took a day or two to figure out how to self-guide. Not...

    Not a Ranger, but still nice.

    -- I seem to remember that only eight of these were made by a PNW builder of some repute. Hard to compare a C25, different toy for sure. I have seen a video of the AT24 making a turn, it does seem to lean a bit but I have no idea about secondary stability. They were in the $50K +zone not that...

    another Marinco shore power failure.

    Interesting comment. I had a long reply typed in and hit the erase button by accident. So here is a brief thought or two: #1 I suggest using the best products and alongside help you can afford when dealing with high voltages, especially in a marine environment. #2 I am not a fan of Marinco...

    another Marinco shore power failure.

    Great topic, I ride horses and we all have electric to our campers and trailers. This item I have found to be faultless. Even pulls apart when you go to move your bumper hitch or fifth wheel trailer and forget you have a big black or yellow cord attached. Still good to use the right grease but...
