    Removing gas from tanks

    Interested in what meathod some of you use to remove gas from tanks in a 22' cruiser for winter storage? I have siphoned in the past but would like a faster meathod, perhaps a pump of some kind. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

    Glass cleaner

    Like many others the windows in our 22' cruiser had its share of water spots. I have tried many products without much success. Finally I found a product that really works. It does take some scrubbing to get great results. The windows now are clear and look new. The product is 755 Duragloss...

    Which C-Dory do you want to see?

    Being that the 22' cruiser outsells all other models I would think that's the one you should display. I have had ours since new in 2001, it never fails to generate interest whether on the water or at the dock.

    King Canvas Camper top- opinions?

    We are very pleased with quality and price. We had our Bimini installed by King and had a couple of follow up dealings that were quickly addressed. I would give King a thumbs up.

    permatrim questions

    The best three additions that we have added to our 22' cruiser are trim tabs, Permatrims and BayStar hyd. steering. It makes trimming and side to side leveling a breeze. Would do it again only sooner. You will not believe the difference in handling.

    There has to be an easier way to change oil

    I also went with the Topsider oil extractor this year. It makes changing the oil very easy and clean. I did warm up the engines first. I also use it on other small engines around the place.

    State of the Marinaut Business

    Les, good luck with your new adventure. Nordic Tug has been around a long time. I am sure that you will enjoy the new partnership. Now all you have to do is sell and rig the new boats. You might even have time to get in a little boating and finish up your demo boat. Big Mac

    Cdory 25 at the 2015 SBS

    Surprised that their has been little comment about the new 25' Cdory. I thought it looked like a very nice build. Enjoyed seeing it and the two SeaSports on display. Preferring the 22', I would have liked to see one of the new builds of that model, maybe next year. Any other comments from fellow...

    Topsider MPV oil changer

    This is the 13th year that I have changed oil on the Mary Ellen's twin 40hp Hondas. I have tried every method to try and drain the oil without making a mess. No matter how careful I was I always had a spill. This year I purchased a Topsider MPV oil pump out system. You guessed, it worked perfect...

    permatrim questions

    We have both Permatrims and trim tabs on the Mary Ellen with twin 40hp Honda's. I ran with the Permatrims for several years before adding trim tabs (Lenco brand) also. Although it is possible to use the Permatrims for side to side trim, it works much better to trim the boat for the desired bow...

    Just ordered ours today. Thanks Greg for putting this together. The photos look great. I also think the price is very reasonable for us Cdory lovers.

    New C-Dory coming in

    I would vote for a 22' Cruiser, dark gray trim color, with shore power, hydraulic steering, trim tabs, LED lighting, Wallas stove, twin 40hp Honda power, and windless. In my opinion what makes the C-dory so appealing is the simplicity of the boat making it very easy to maintain. If you want...

    New method for folding trailer tongue.

    After reading this post I went out to the shop to look at the MaryEllen sitting on her EZloader single axle trailer. A couple of things stuck out. The tubing that the hitch actuator is bolted onto appears to be larger. It measures 3'' by 5''. It also extends back to a cross brace well behind the...

    Hello Again for Northwest Marine

    Mark, thanks for the update, it is really nice to hear that a few boats are being built. I think it would be interesting to hear the numbers of boats built by model since you took over the company. Keep us informed, we are an important asset to keeping the Cdory brand alive.

    Baystar Hydraulic steering HC4645H for twins

    Les at EQ installed this hydraulic steering system on our boat with twin 40hp Hondas. He had to remove one motor to install the system. I do not think their is any way around this option. Hope this helps. We have been very happy with the BayStar system. Wonder why we waited so long.

    C-Brat Burgee Order

    What are most using for display of the burgee on the front rail of the 22' cruiser? I need both the mount to the stainless rail and a pole. The ones I have looked at on line do not seem to allow for the curve? Thanks for any suggestions.

    Daydream is Home at Last!

    The new boat shop looks great. We have been fortunate to keep the Mary Ellen in our shop since new. You will not believe how much easier it is to take care of your boat. I often go out in the winter and fire up the stove and take a cruise. You will ask yourself why you waited so long. Happy...

    Thanks from NMI

    I just uploaded a photo of the C-dory 26 Venture that was at the 2014 SBS. Sorry that I only took one picture. It is on page 4 of my album.
