    I'll Bet Anything...

    Here's a bit more... and it seems to me that the elevation thing seems to fit right in with this: Spent the weekend at Flamming Gorge Reservoir (fishing for Kokanee). Elevation was reading just over 6K. Lost another 100RPM and top speed dropped to just under 20MPH. Interesting.

    I'll Bet Anything...

    thanx guys... very interesting :P I was going to ask about the altitude thing, but somewhere I had read that the Honda 40 doesn't need any adjustment for altitude. Mentioned this to a couple of friends and one mentioned another aspect I haven't seen yet in this thread... according to my friend...

    Autoplot with Rotary Drive Steering

    I finally purchased and installed my autopilot. A fine gentleman at Simrad stated that the Simrad AP14R is a direct replacement for what I had. He also stated that I would not be disappointed. On the contrary, my spouse and I are extremely pleased! The installation took about four hours on...

    I'll Bet Anything...

    thanx for your interest and comments Joe... Somehow I knew that I would need to provide more information. So... I have two sets of props. One is aluminum 3x11.1x13. These are currently not on the boat. But as I recall they did let me get close to 5K RPM running full throttle getting about...

    I'll Bet Anything...

    Well, I find all that data interesting and very informative :shock: ... and I like the twin 40's I have on my CD and I have no desire to either ski nor become accident prone, but... many of you are stating that you get 30 knots and cruise at 20. I am getting only 20 knots at full throttle ...

    I'll Bet Anything...

    ... well just about anything... that this has been asked and answered a number of times before... but search brings up over 500 hits and most are not what I want to know... so... Why does the factory place a 100HP limit on my CD22 :?: I see smaller boats with more and I see weaker built boats...

    Autoplot with Rotary Drive Steering

    thanx Byrdman... I read that thread when it started and again just now... some of the references in it go back to hydraulic steering (S1000, etc). In addition although the intellisteer looks much like the Simrad system it doesn't look like it has the ability to connect to GPS units and use...

    Autoplot with Rotary Drive Steering

    I am looking for an autopilot... the one I have now is just too expensive, not reliable, doesn't understand waypoints, and sometimes stays home cuz she doesn't want to fish... imagine that! :roll: I've gone through pages and pages of stuff we have filed away concerning autopilot... most deal...

    Raymarine S1 Sportpilot #E12181

    The Raymarine site says the SportPilot is no longer being distributed. Got me wondering why... So I sent them this email: "Why has Raymarine discontinued production of the SportPilot? Are there problems with the product? Are they safety problems? Do you have a product that replaces the...

    Fridge Problem

    Anybody have access to a marine refridgerator troubleshooting guide? Recently my Norcold DE-0051 quit getting cold. It worked fine for a year. Now it just cycles on and off without cooling at all. I am simply looking for a starting point to see if it might be owner repairable. One interesting...

    Hi John... Please tell me more about: brand, where to get one, watts, etc. I haven't concerned myself with the batteries, just decided to leave them in with CD connected to shore power. But keeping the humidity out without becoming concerned with fire danger etc is something I could work on...

    How do ya tell if you're a Real C-Brat?

    You know you are a C-Brat if... Perfect strangers in Utah from Alaska knock on your door just to ask where you obtained your "rocket launcher" pole holders. Don't laugh... happened last week. I invited them to join the site. They said they owned a 95 CD 22'... nice folk.

    22' vs 25'

    Pat said: Nothing in particular in mind other than in place of the porta potti... but I suspected it would be taller... guess in view of the fact that I would need to cut a three foot hole in the keel I might should forget about it. Do know that if I were to ever get a 25 I would definitely go...
