Good morning C-Brats, We sealed the deal on a new-to-us Camano Troll this week. We're very excited but also very sad to say good bye to Curious Traveler. She was our first "real" boat and we created many memories on her in just 2 seasons. I will really miss her simplicity - grab my wife and dog...

Hi Tom, I got your PM. We aren't for sure selling yet. I have a survey on the new boat this week so we should hopefully know soon if we're going through with the purchase. I'm in conversations with another individual about the C-Dory but if something falls through I'll be sure to update the...

Hello Mike, I think she's beautiful but maybe I'm biased! I'll take some more pics to show her condition. Feel free to PM and we can talk further. Thanks.

Well C-Brats, can't believe I'm actually posting this. If you've read my discussion posts, you know how much I love this boat. The problem is, she did her job too well. My goal was to introduce my wife to boating, and to spending weekends on the boat, hoping she'd fall in love with it. After 2...

On a trailer, it's not a problem because you can just pull the drain plug. In the water, we used a little solar charger to keep the batteries topped off so the bilge pump wouldn't kill them. It was never a problem keeping the water pumped out and we get a ton or rain. This year I purchased a...

GPhrank, My opinion may differ from others somewhat. I've only had my C-Dory since last March so compared to the other members on here that's not very long and I would definitely value their opinions over mine. But, we boat on the Chesapeake Bay and I find we are very, very, rarely, ever able...

Our dog is a bit clumsier than most I guess. She's already torn an ACL once and we're trying to avoid another as we watch her clumsily try to jump over the gunnel, slip on the fiberglass, and drop down to the dock - usually with one leg somehow caught in a dock line or wrapped around the Bimini...

Dog Ramp idea

Good morning C-Brats, My wife and I frequently stay at marinas with various dock heights. Add tides to this and sometimes getting our 60lb dog on and off the boat can be challenging. Has anyone found, or made, a dog ramp? I basically need two ramps, one to get up over the gunnel from the...

This is great...tried it today. Usually I start it, it dies, and I start it again. This time I started it and right when she was about to die I pushed down on the key for a split second. Stayed running.

Ncw2, Happy to show mine off in the Annapolis area. Send me a PM.

Welcome, and congrats on your great new boat and upcoming marriage. We're enjoying our second year with our 22 Cruiser and having a blast spending weekends on her.

Ken O, Are you sure you can't adjust the throttle while in neutral? I have a 2006 Honda BF90. I push in the rubber "button" at the hinge of the throttle and that let's me give it gas while in neutral. We have it down to a science. Prime the bulb about 12 times until it's firm. Bring the...

If we were both retired, I think the attraction to a tailorable boat would be greater. It really would be cool to take it all over and explore different areas. Since we both work though, we don't have the amount of time of that it takes to do this. So for now its more about having a boat to...
