    LED Navigation Lights

    I indicated earlier I would try to find the part number and bolt size at Tacoma Screw for the replacement bolts for the Perko side nav lights. Haven't had a problem with these stripping out like the originals. You will need some very small washers so the bolt head doesn't pull thru the outer...

    I found a large ? 18" tear shaped fender at a garage sale. Don't remember the make. I experimented with hanging it at various heights and positions along the bow dockside railing - usually near the back of the railing. For docking: When positioned correctly the large fender can protect the...

    Hugh Actually I sold the CDory with twin 40's in October when I found a 22 with a lot of the features I wanted [Radar arch, trim tabs, autopilot, C80, forward Port seat, Bimini with zipper at cockpit to facilitate entry] - it had Honda 75 and while year end prices are ok and before inflation...

    LED Navigation Lights

    The bolts I am talking about are accessed from the outside of the light in two deep holes - and they hold the lens and black shell onto the Perko base that is secured internally to the boat with different ?screw or bolt that should not need changed. I had an old Perko unit I took with me to...

    How do you use your kicker?

    I really appreciate the input - I reread each post several times. You can tell I am a slow shopper - once I buy my gear however I use it for years. My first mountain stove Optimus 8r is 40 years old and still running. Sounds like with a kicker shouldn't need a generator for battery power back...

    How do you use your kicker?

    I had a long talk with Les [EQ-Marine] this weekend - wow is he knowledgeable. I may have the wrong idea about a kicker. I am used to using the twin 40-s on prior CD. I am trying to decide whether I should get the lightest kicker [tiller, manual tilt, start] for rare emergency use like he was...
