Joel, both sorry to hear what happened and glade you will be able to restore her. I looked at the pictures and their disturbing to see any boat like that. Best of Luck (or Skill)

John, Thank you for the understanding Post, it was appreciated. Quick question, is there a pressure valve of some sort in the fuel vent line? A friend said in cars there is a spring valve that remains closed on the vent line till the pressure builds then opens and closes up again. If that's the...

Fred (not your regular DR PHIL) _________________ Man From Nantucket Whether I agree with you or not, I'll never say on line, but I can assure you I deleted your post right after I read it. I may be somewhat unhappy with the present boating problem, BUT I'm not Suicidal enough to leave that...

Lyle, I'm not sure what difference in design has occurred since our boat was built. I'd like to hear from some owners of hulls made before mine (mine was hull #9, first one built by Scott after purchasing the company) I also have twin Honda 75's back there which add some considerable weight, we...

Eric, I think it's the right boat for me with some adjustments and modifications, I only hope one of the modifications is not 'removing the mate' You know we all say their the "Mate" but the reality is their the CAPTAINS

Thanks Jim for the input...oh yea, I forgot to mention, we just bought a high ....temperature pipe covering to put around the wallas stove exhaust pipe under the sink area. I forgot to tell the XYL that it gets hot when you use the stove, so we found out a little too late what the foul smelling...

Hi Dave, With out going into great detail, vacationing with a unhappy wife can lead to a unhappy vacation...ha-ha I had to go back and look at my old post to see the positive ones. don't misunderstand me, I like the boat as a day or even a weekender. A friend and I last month went Flounder...

Tell me I'm not alone First, a little background. We have been sailing for over 15 years. My back problems made it impossible to sail anymore so we had to sell our Tayana 37. After researching power boats & trailerable trawlers we found this sight and eventually found our CD-25. Next -Looking...

Thanks Guys.....

There was a post sometime ago where someone installed a deck wash down systen, showing pictures. I forgot the members name, does anyone remember?

I picked up a new still in the box, stainless steel handicap (I hope I'm politically correct) grab rail at a yard sale for 2 dollars. I think HomeDepot sells them for about $20. I haven't mounted it yet, but though it was a great buy. I might mount it on the transom for a safety hold to climb...

Congradulations and Best Wishes for Safe and Happy Journeys

I appreciate your efforts keeping this board as spam free as possible. I would love to be able to do something like Ken said . Their more annoying than mosquitoes in your boat at night when your trying to sleep, and deserve the same treatment....search and destroy

The tank on my CD-25 is aluminum. I checked the connection on top of the tank and they are ok. I also drilled a hole in the fiberglass like Steve from Dora-Jean had mentioned and no odor there. I covered the vent and I think the smell is gone.....I'm hyperventilating...sniff...sniff The fuel...

Thanks for the info Joe. I do smell it most of the time. I did change the fuel filters but I checked them for leakage and there dry. The under cockpit floor doesn't smell when I open any access hatches, but when I'm standing by the vent side of the cockpit I do smell fuel. There is no access to...

Thanks for the input guys, I'll try and check next time I put fuel in it and see if it shows the amount of gallons I dump in. The hundred gallon tank may only see 50 gals with the price around $3.00 a gallon, so I'll check and see if it shows around half full. Another question ....I notice the...

Is it just my CD or does others have the same problem? I can go from a 1/2 tank to close to empty on my gauge depending on the boats plane angle. I assume the tanks have baffels inside but my gauge changes significantly as the angle changes. I even though of putting in a dip stick in the tank...

I have twin Honda 75's and with 3 people on board I have show 31mph on the GPS....thats also with a Honda EU-3000 that weighs about 160lbs.
