The times they are a changing...I always considered West Marine a "last/emergency option" . From their website... "Won’t Be Beat—Price Match Guarantee We want you to shop with confidence and WE WON’T BE BEAT ON PRICE! If you find a lower price on an identical product (Brand and Model) at a...

Not sure how many CDory folks have boat covers; regardless, I bought two cover vents and put one on my boat cover - not sure if they'll make a big difference but we'll see. Summer will be a better indicator - winter months in FL are in general pretty benign. I know it's brutal underneath there...

My 2001 Yamaha 150 HPDI starboard engine's telltale was weak at best. I tried all sorts of things to get it flowing better (replaced impellar, used vinegar, looked at the cooling lines...). I wasn't getting any overheat alerts but it wasn't looking right. I was all but convinced I needed a...

Reading some of the Great Loop trips and having done a partial trip I'm convinced I want to give it a college try. That said so far it's been pretty clear that the spouse is not interested. She's not much into boating, but loves the beaches, traveling, sunsets, relaxing...all the fun things...

We met online about a decade ago, and it was love at first sight. She had the lines that would catch a young man's attention. We would sneak out early in the morning - some times we wouldn't tell people where we would be going - and always get scorned by those who who didn't know where we...

Looks like a good place to see property. The place I bought my boat from a few months ago on Big Pine Key has about 20% roof damage. Quite a few flipped boats on the windward side; lots of boats in the mangroves made it. Interesting to see that most roofs made it - no clue on water damage. I...

We don't see this often over here in Tampa...we get negative tides in the winter but that entire section never goes fully dry. https://weather.com/storms/hurricane/ne ... ge-arrived I didn't have an issue with people going out there, but the folks out there barefooted were one oyster away from...

I saw that there was a lower housing discussion here, and figured I would add my recent upper bearing housing experience on a 2001 Yamaha 150 HPDI. I looked at the seals while replacing the water pump and saw the tell-tale milky fluid. In terms of difficulty - 10 being take it to a pro, this...

For $500 I'm not sure you could go wrong. I have no affiliation with the fella. Considered it, but I'll probably end up buying an inflatable paddleboard or kayak. Here's the link. Figured someone might be interested...retails $2500. Looks like the guy ust wants it gone. Usual "buyer...

I debated to put this on here and figured the moderators can kill this thread if need be. I looked around the forum and found plenty of advise on panel sizes...but installs seemed to be few and far between. I'm looking at installing a temporary solar charging system for the batteries on my boat...

I've been hanging about here for several years and have come very close to buying a Tomcat. After about 18 months, several near purchases, I ended up with a Glacier Bay 2670. I seatrialed her in 20-25 knot winds and all I could say was wow - the beat down I was expecting never came. I'm...

OK - so let me come clean here...I've been hanging out on this forum for quite some time. Looked at several boats, even called on buying a trailer for one, but I'm not a C-Dory guy [yet]. With that in mind I have a quasi general outboard engine question regarding gasoline. I have a 2003 2...

Anyone have a feel for the size of the baitwell sizes on the 22, 23, 25? Gallons or approx size is good. I'm assuming that they are rounded and don't have any corners - is that true? I really need to get out and see the boats. Managed to see a Tomcat in March or so, but no other C-Dories...

Anyone have a feel for a) price - base model, no options, but include trailer on a 2015 b) number made per year for the last 5-10 years Just curious as I possibly start "the quest".

Hello all...quick intro John B here. I reside in Tampa FL and have been researching several vessels and have been lurking on the forum reading posts about c-dories and tomcats. Having done a partial ICW cruise from Jax, FL to Vero 6 years ago I can say I have the bug to do the loop pretty...
