    New Owner of a 22 Cruiser

    Trim tabs can be used to trim the boat from side to side, and to get the boat up on plain easier when heavily loaded. But the best thing about the tabs is you can use them to hold the bow down when going into wind waves, swells or rough water to will get a smother ride. C dory's are fairly light...

    Is this boat underpowered?

    I like my E-Tec90, it's lite weight and has plenty of power even when loaded with 4 people and crab pots. It tops out at about 30 mph, but usually I run between 20 and 25 depending on how rough the water is. A 75 will probably get the job done, and usually 19's with the smaller motors can cost 3...

    Angler 19 Kicker Shaft Length?

    I just use my main for trolling, I sit sideways in the helm seat and can watch my pole, control my speed, see where I am going, and check my sonar. I've been running with a E Tec main for 12 years. My kicker is a Tohatsu 6, its the 20 inch standard length. My prop is just touching the the top...

    Stand Up Helm Options

    I run out of Anacortes to Eagle Point in a C 19 quiet a bit and we get bounced around pretty good sometimes. I would question if a C Dory, with its flat bottom would be a good match if you have a bad back. I know you can go slow and sometimes we do get a smooth ride, but usually its on the...

    Increased towing capacity? 16' to 19'

    My thinking is, if you can afford to move up to a C 19, maybe you can also afford to get an old truck to tow it, with. Salt water can be really hard on nice classic Jeeps. I would think that your short wheel base and light weight would not be a good thing if you had to tow the C 19 on the...

    Debating between a 16' and 19'

    It would be best if you could look at and compare the 16 and 19 in person. But that is hard to do because there aren't many 16's around, and there are fewer 19ers around. When I was boat shopping, at the boat show they had a 16, 19, and 22 for me to look at. If my wife was into boating it would...

    Shrimp pot puller

    Sorry I misunderstood your question. I thought someone noticed I went cheap on the lower bracket. Its a standard block on the top of the puller, black nylon, kinda J shaped so you can throw the line in the top, but the lower side comes up high enough so the line isn't going to come off the side...

    Shrimp pot puller

    The upper bracket has a nylon sleeve in it. They make the lower brackets with sleeves, but the one without was $22 less. after buying the middle bracket my wallet was getting kinda light, so I went for the one with out the sleeve and figured I would just grease it up every so often, there is a...

    Shrimp pot puller

    Hi guys, I thought I would share information on my home built davit style shrimp pot puller. It runs off a wheelchair motor. I brought it 12 years ago from a guy that used to build them in his garage. I have probably have pulled about 1,000 pots with this set up. If your handy you could build...
