Went shopping for trailers today at the Boat Show for our 22. Besides talking with the the usual, we talked with the folks at Road Runner Trailers. They are manufactured in Richmond BC and sold by a company in Marysville. Has anyone heard of Road Runner Trailers? Their pricing is ~$1500 less...

How does the adjustable fin on the outboard affect trim tab operation?

Many years ago there were intermittent water stops on the hill where you could refill your radiator if needed.

We have a Suzuki also.......purchased at Master Marine. They had assured me that the rigging from my 2005 Suzuki was compatible with the new 2014 Suzuki. It wasn't. 6 months later they changed the rigging after numerous unexplained problems. Had the rigging been changed at the time I would have...

Is there a way to reset the indicator lights on the Bennett trim tabs if the lights are not indicating correctly? Thank

Thanks Sunbeam. I plan on using epoxy on the holes and using 4200 to fill the gap between the smooth and knurled surfaces. I'll keep an eye on it for leaking. Your suggestion of looking at Voyager's and Kerry-On's albums was really useful for locating the hawse hole. Thataway- I was a West...

Does anyone know the thickness of the deck at the bow? thanks

I plan on installing just the hawse pipe fitting and cover now with maybe a windlass in the future so I would appreciate any advise on where the hawse pipe fitting should be installed. Looking back thru previous posts I read that it should be directly on the center line and between the anchor...

I am starting a new thread (not the first one) on this subject because I didn't want to hijack the thread on the Suzuki 140hp engine Anode assistance and I'm still angry at Suzuki for my having to replace my 2005 Suzuki 90 hp due to its corrosion problem. While looking at the links that Bob...

If an earthquake does occur off the coast of Washington and the wave enters the Strait of Juan de Fuca, how do the effects translate into the San Juan Islands say thru Cattle Pass or up Rosario Strait into Lopez Pass or Thatcher Pass?

Thanks for the information Jody. Nice talking with you yesterday Peter. Have fun on your trip to Desolation later this summer.

What I like about this site is the informative and knowledgeable answers....oh and did I say quick also? Jody- I looked for my manual and am ashamed to say that I somehow neglected to leave it in the boat. I would appreciate it if you looked in yours to determine what the alarm might mean...

I re-powered last year with a new Suzuki 90hp. I am now getting alarms, very short duration beeps with no indicator lights, at low RPMs.....when idling or when docking. I am not getting alarms any time other than at low RPMs. Does Suzuki have an alarm that indicates when a service is due...

SleepyC- I was looking at the picture of the rack you have for your dingy and have a few questions. How do you get your dingy on and off the rack? How is the frame anchored, both at the bottom and at the sides to prevent racking? Is there a head clearance problem for getting on and off the...

Just a few more comments since I did cut out the bulkhead. So far I am glad I did. I agree with localboy in that it makes it really easier to get in an out.....for my wife, as I sleep on the wire side. Great idea on the privacy curtain. As for losing your pillow, if you build aplatform to place...

My original idea was to extend the port side sleeping birth and make access easier. If a structure were to be placed in the footwell area at a suitable height to place one of the cushions on, it would extend the sleeping birth. Two thoughts- 1. Cut the sliding seat to form two "boxes", the...

I recently removed the port bulkhead between the v-birth and the cabin in my 22. I really like the openness that it creates. The main reason why I did it was to create a larger and more accessible sleeping arrangement. I was wondering how some of the other cbrats who have done this have...

Thanks again for your replies.... Thataway- could you elaborate on the ways to use a short shaft on a C-Dory? My kicker bracket is fixed. Would I need to change the bracket to one that hinges up and down? Once it is down, is it hard to steer......does the handle then hit the stern of the...

Thanks for your replies.......maybe I should explain better. This motor would be used either as the kicker for my C-Dory or on the 14' Lund. I have a small 5hp Mercury for my dingy on the C-Dory....besides this motor needs to be a long shaft because the C-Dory needs it and the Lund is the one...

We use a 1992 Evenrude 15hp kicker for both our C-Dory kicker and for a 14' aluminum Lund. This past week we had used the Lund because our C-Dory is in the shop. I guess old age is finally setting in because in moving the kicker around I strained by back. Does anyone know the lightest...
