    Odd-ball C-dory

    Been looking and came across this add-ball. Keep coming back to C-dory’s in my searches, funny how the past repeats itself. Too bad this one lacks a cabin, better suited for Hawaii or the keys. Nice motor setup. Link to Seattle craigslist: https://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/boa/ ... 14465.html

    Harvest time

    We load our freezer every summer with fish and shrimp, but there is so much more. That leafy seaweed that hangs from your anchor, dulce chips. 200°f for about 10 minutes, a favorite English pub treat; I bring it home every trip. Other seaweeds you can dry and crumble, make excellent...

    8 plait to 3 strand splice

    I have about 200 feet of Samson 3 strand pro-set 3 strand 1/2" line and would like to splice onto 350" of 8 plait. So doing a bit of resurch, the method I've found is to tape and unravel the 8 plait into 3 strands and tape and unravel the three strand into 4, than splice accordingly. Why do I...

    SOS Distress Light

    Thinking of puchasing one of these to satisfy USCG Federal Requirements for DAY and NIGHT use in lieu of traditional flares. No more worries of expired flares. Will still keep the old flares, perhaps label them (for training only) when they expire. Like to keep a 3 pack in the ditch bag, good...

    Testing motor on the trailer at ramp

    Okay so I'm going to go test my motor out at the ramp without launching. I've never done this before so I guess my question is do I leave the straps on or take the straps off and just leave it attached at tthe bow. I'm thinking of leaving the stern straps on to stabilize the boat because I'm...

    How hard to pull 25 fuel tank.

    So thinking I may have a slow fuel tank leek. If I leave the lazarette hatches closed I smell a slight gasoline odor when I open one, when the hatches are left open I can't smell anything. So now I would like to pull the entire fuel tank and inspect it along with replacing all the lines. On my...

    inside overhead CD25 rod holders

    In the process of installing overhead rod holders in the cabin. What has been holding me back is I'll need to remove the stereo from the shelf above the helm; I'll need the extra forward space to accommodate rod tips. Replacing the stereo with a simple AM FM with Bluetooth and USB plugs will...

    Shanghai cell phone usage

    Going to Shanghai for a couple weeks in the spring with crew. My understanding is if your cell phone is unlocked you can purchase a prepaid SIM card that allows your phone to work over there. Both the Admiral and I have unlocked phones, and I found a couple of online vendors who would gladly...

    Thoughts on extra fuel storage

    Every year I think about better ways of bringing extra fuel for extended journeys, but every year I end up doing the same thing; bring along multiple 5 gallon jugs. The jugs wouldn’t be so bad except the newer pour spouts are slow and cumbersome. I have a couple of the old jugs with easy pour...

    New cooler/cutting table on 25

    I posted some pictures in the cave of our new cooler/cutting table project on the Triple J. After butchering our second 100lb + halibut of the season I decided the old table was bit undersized and dated for our needs. The Rubbermaid cooler has 3 ice pack dividers and 4 ice packs that attach to...

    E80/Garmin mileage discrepancy

    I bought a Garmin Montana 600 series for backup (an anchor alarm I can take to bed) and supplement the 7 year old Ray Marine E80 on the Triple J 25. This last weekend I used both the ground trip odometer on the E80 and the Garmin Trip odometer. On our way back from a 200+ mile run out beyond...

    Steak Seasonng

    If you like a good steak, and cook it yourself, seasoning is the key. A couple of years ago one of my co-workers from West Virginia told me about coffee seasoning steaks. I was totally skeptical because the process involved smothering your steak with fine ground coffee and then placing on the...
