Having owned a1985 C-Dory 22 Angler and a 2006 Ranger 21 tug I have to agree it is really difficult to compare the two. While living in Fl. On the lazy St. John’s river and Harris lake chain, the tug was great. A nice cockpit to lounge in and just putt around at 7 knots. An onboard diesel was a...

Bob, Thanks for info. the TVA lake info. is what I watch, both the Operating Guide and Lake Levels. They show Chickamauga outflow is high now with Nickajack outflow and then Guntersville going up tomorrow with Wheeler going up Sat. As each goes up the one upstream is shown to go down so maybe as...

Bob, I have been closely watching this river situation for the last several days since I am planning on leaving Wheeler lake on Sat. 29th. for Chattanooga. The TVA Lake Level web. site shows a rise of approx. 2 ft' for Chickamauga lake. They show it is predicted to go down on the 29th. Could you...

If in Granville on Sat. night, must go to Sutton’s General Store for a catered dinner and “mini” Grand Ole Opery. It a fun night and one you will find nowhere else. Broadcast over Cookville,Tn. radio. A must do when in that part of the world. 😜

David, That is the great thing about this site. A lot of good info. from people that have walked in the situation and have the experience. In wrestling with big decisions like you are sometimes it is the little points that make the difference. Being retired myself I understand the real decision...

Thanks for the info. and update on what I was missing. This site is great to fill in blanks on interesting subjects. You guys in the North West have or had some real talent in boat designers. The Alweather was another neat boat from there as well as C-Dory, Ranger and other current boats.

Am I missing something on this boat such as "it is not the design of the original Bartender" George Calkins was the designer of the Bartender wasn't he? It is a neat boat and looks like one I saw constructed of wood. Any idea what they are asking for the boat?

Sorry for the poor wording in my post. The tilt is the engine tilt on the engine on a modified pontoon used for pulling logs out of our subdivision waterways.

Thanks for info. I shall try this as soon as I get the battery back to the boat, off for winter.

Thanks for the info. and I shall do this as soon as I take the boat back to the water. I am up for the winter with battery off etc.

My 2011 Honda 30hp on my log puller tilt is leaking down in about 4 days. The engine has about 250 hours and there is no hydraulic fluid showing around a leak. I assume there must be a seal that is leaking by in the cylinder. Has anyone had this issue and is it a repair to tackle?

The 75 is the aspect ratio which mean the section height is 75% of the width. This says the tire radius is slightly larger. You would have a taller tire as well as wider tire but if the cargo trailer is a single axle trailer I would not be concerned with using it as a spare. Certainly better for...

John, In no way am I speaking for the host of the gathering, but from personal experience I assure you that you will enjoy boating on the St. John’s river and the area. I am a member of C-Brats but sold my C-Dory and got a Rosborough. Have now sold it and may buy the C-Dory back again. Have...

There was a short period of time in the 3005-2006 time frame that they tried a joint marketing venture. In fact a few tugs were sold as C-Ranger. This was in the Classic 21' era prior to the 25' I believe. A number of individuals have worked both places. Both were great companies and good...
