1988 C-Dory Cruiser in very nice shape with lots of upgrades inside and out. Still almost new Yamaha 75 four stroke. Around 60 hrs on motor. Will have to double check. Boat is turn key and ready to go. Just needs new trailer lights as my dog ate all the exposed wires. Trailer has new wheel...

Does any one here know of a good way of Removing corrosion from chrome hardware. It looks kind of like bluish green mold and is really hard and brittle. If you scratch it with your finger nails it kind of flakes off like a powder. This stuff is growing on my door handle hardware and the...

I'm thinking about ordering a new factory swim step. Can anyone tell me if the ladder swings 90 degrees to be parallel with the water flowing past it? Say you use the ladder to climb out of the water, forget to fold it up and leave it in the down position, you then hit the gas full throttle...

I am thinking on welding up a new swimstep for Plankton. I'm planning on using diamond plate aluminum in the shape of the factory one. I'm not sure but I seem to remember seeing a line drawing of one somewhere on this site but can't seem to find it. If so can someone point me in the right...

Just wondering if anyone here tows their 22 cruisers with the Jeep Grand Cherokee V8. How does it do? My girl friend is getting one next week and was wondering if I should put the skids on the whole deal.

So I called up the factory to get a price on 2 new replacement C-dory logos. Unfortunatly my boat did not come with any. After not hearing anything for a week I recieved this email today. Just goes to show how cool this company can be. Woohoo, free stuff!!! Mr. Burnett, I am Dave...

Does anyone know where I can buy Starboard in Anchorage?

Man..You have to post the recipe for your Huckleberries & crab pasta! Was just checking out your album and saw it there. Looks really good.

Has anyone here tried Nauticpath maps? If so what do you think. $59.00 on ebay! Seems cheap, maybe too cheap.

Just thought I would throw this on here. I'm selling my Navman GPS for Ipaq along with Maptech Pocket Navigator with lots of AK maps. Heres the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... %3AIT&rd=1 Cheap way to get a good GPS that displays real NOAA maps.

Just finished my new radar arch. Only cost $70.00 in materials. Questions and comments are greatly appreciated. http://www.c-brats.com/modules.php?set_ ... _photo.php

Stole this idea from Dogon Dory. Only difference is that I thought I would save $$ by using a block of wood that I covered in fiberglass, sanded then painted. Total cost: $25.00. Had to raise the kicker because of the front of it rubbing against the steering cable after the new Yami install...

Heading to Kachemak bay this weekend to break in the new motor. I'll answer to catdogcat on 16 vhf, and 28 on cb. Hope to run into somebody from this site. Come on down to Homer town. :thup :thup

Just got my Boat back today with my new Yamaha 75. Is the Yamaha multi function tach supposed to have a backlight so you can see it in the dark? Mine doesn't seem to light up. Just wondering if I have it hooked up wrong. Is there a way to turn it off and on?

I'm planning on getting a new 75hp Yamaha 4stroke this weekend. There offering a new old stock 2003 for 6900 with install and accessories. Seems like a good $$. What do you guys think about the new 05. Is it worth the extra 1000.00 for the EFI. I hate carbs but really like the discounted...

I didn't like the puddles that would pool up in the cockpit so I made some floorboards to raise it up about an 1.5". The puddles would get especially bad when it would rain. Also I added a "Puddle Sucker" on the bulk head. This should solve the problem completely. Now I can pump out water at...

Went to throw my anchor out last weekend and noticed that the stainless cover that goes over the feed to the anchor locker was stuck on pretty good. Took out my Leatherman to pop it off and ended up popping it off right into the sea. Dangit!! :cry Thats a really funny feeling watching...

Decided to take a trip over to Seldovia Saturday morning based on the weather report predicting 2 ft seas. It was 4ft the whole way there. Boat handles 4 ft seas great. On the way back to Homer I got caught in about 7/8 foot following seas that were breaking. The boat seemed to handle it ok...

I'm looking for some advice on removing the old boat name lettering. It is painted on with what seems to be some sort of enamel. What should I use to strip it off without messing up the gelcoat?
