I have finally completed the sundeck that I started researching almost a year ago. I had a friend of mine who does Tuna Towers fabricate the frame. Then I glued and screwed the teak planks onto the frame. Next is a big ol fiberglass antenna The finished project

Well go figure...Now the pictures are up, in triplicate. I tried from 9pm til midnite last night, and nothing. Guess it just needed to reboot. and check out my upcoming post of my project completion now that i have a picture of it.

They should be small enough since it said they didn't need resize and were taken with the phone anyway but now on laptop. Sounds like I did it right so i'll just try again. Windows 7 OS

Thanks Sunbeam but that is exactly what i did and it said adding picture XXX.jpg but nothing ever happened. I'll try again. I've read the instructions, it just isn't working. On the top, don't you have to choose a format?

Can I (I can't) upload pictures directly from my laptop or do they need to be on a hosting site like photobucket? Already searched the subject and tried, but no luck. Then I emailed Tyboo, still no response. I know this has been covered 100 times but we're headed south soon and want to be...

We're thinking about just getting in the boat and heading south on the ICW. Anyone know how long from Daytona to Key West? We were just told by a couple while at the marina today that they did it there and back in a 25' cruiser in two weeks. Thoughts?

New sun deck

We might be talked into exploring the Keys sometime this winter. First we would need to find a launch that is close to I95 and a safe haven for our truck and trailer. Second we would like to hook up with other C-brats or at least know the best places to see and stay in Keys. TIA John & Karen

I too planned on being in the water by now. But after bottom painting and servicing the Honda 135, the marina was bringing the boat to my dock when the high pressure fuel pump went out along with the gas gauge. Should be ready today or Monday.

Where are you putting in at? We might be up for a cruise down the St Johns

We are planning on doing something in January. Am open to ideas...at least now we're on the thread. Thanks! John and Karen

I'm in Florida and don't see a lot of mountains in the near future. Trailer has 4 wheel disk brakes and I was under the impression they would be electric. Not so, but I could always put a big brake package on the truck before venturing too far north. Thanks for the heads up PeterQ. The half...

I know its been a while, but I was cleaning out my in box and came across this. Wanted to thank all those who chimed in about their rides. I ended up with a new Silverado Z71 4WD 4Dr with the 5.3 auto. Its rated to tow 9200 lbs as is or 9400 if i put a tranny cooler on it. Seems ample for a...

I don't think we're going to make it either. Thought it would be nice to meet more cbrats but we've met half a dozen in Florida over the summer. Can't justify the expence of 2500 mile round trip at this time. Maybe next year. Hope you have a good meet.

Sounds like REAL ADVENTURE! We are going to try and do this as we know people in Iowa and hear its really nice that time of year. Diane wasn't in today but I'll call tomorrow and reserve a slip. Maybe we'll get a long distance award coming from Florida LOL. John, Karen & Darius dog

We got her on the hard right now til we return to Florida in the fall. At that time we plan to buy the all new redesigned 2013 Silverado and go to key west. 2013 CHEVY / GMC Silverado/Sierra 1500 Ext. Cab Standard Box 4WD 5.3L V-8 9600lbs tow cap. 3.42 axle ratio Of couse that will be...

Nick Very cool meeting you today! "Valkyrie" was cruising up the ICW and seeing our CD at the dock, stopped to say hi and said he'd seen my post on C-Brats. If you come back this way, there is a very cool bar/restraunt under the Flagler Beach Bridge. Hope Marineland was all you hoped! PM me...

Our Dakota is the 2nd one bought and has been bullet proof for seven years. I can now get a loaded Dodge 1500 Hemi sport for $25k. Hate to pass up a good deal but guess I need a 2500. Hate to let the little guy (Dakota) go. Has been tow vehicle and MC carrier all over the country for years...

Wondering if any one has specifically used a Ram 1500 Hemi for a tow vehicle to tow a C-Dory25 comfortably? I'm thinking of selling my Dakota 4x4 and moving up to a full size pick-up. I know its a gas hog but with the $15,000 I save over a comperable 3/4 ton deisel I can buy a lot of gas...

Sounds like no one uses F-150 Ecoboost, Ram 1500, Tundra or Silverado 1500 trucks to haul a 25. If one of these 10k towing capacity trucks would do the job it would save spending $ on a dedicated tow vehicle and we would still have something Karen could drive to yard sales. We're not planning...
