Centering guide

Many have commented on the angst caused by pulling the boat out only to find it sitting way to far to one side or the other. Now usually this isn’t a big issue but at times it’s so far over that the chines are catching on top of the guide rail so the weight of the boat is on it. The last time it...

I came to this topic because my 2018 HD Chevy Silverado 3500, Duramax has been causing me grief at the repair shop. The check engine light is the culprit and I’m tired of the repair bill. So I was wondering if there was any commentary on the capabilities of a lessor truck for towing. Seems like...

I have a 22 cruiser with a 115 Yamaha and a T9.9 LS mounted on a kicker bracket that is higher than the transom where the main is hung. At cruise speed with the 9.9 all the way up, (power tilt) we are just barely dragging the skeg on the kicker. I don't think it is enough to cause any noticeable...

Thanks for all your responses. I guess i will just keep on doing what I have been doing, just be checking more often. Thankful that there was no rotor damage.

When we got our 22 Cruiser it had drum brakes on a Road Runner trailer that of course were inoperable. The first upgrade to that trailer was new 14 inch wheels with new tires and then installed new disc brakes. They were Kodiak brakes with Dacromet coating designed for marine use. While checking...

We just finally managed to arrange weather, time and opportunity to take out our brand new 2021 9.9 Yamaha High Thrust kicker and run it enough to call it broke in. It is an electric start power lift model that we replaced a very dependable 9.9 Yamaha that was totally adequate. We probably...

So we got a standard poodle pup to make life extra interesting on the boat in the future. We are trying to figure out what other dog owners are doing when it come time to take a poodle potty break? Sailor, the c-dog, is 6 mo old, and is highly trainable but our weather has been so atrocious this...

Has anyone successfully cleaned the foam cushions? We had a helm leak that has oil stained a berth cushion. We have noticed that the foam is wrapped in plastic on the topside. A little leery of pulling the foam out and throwing the fabric in the washing machine. We may really struggle to get it...

I came in after sundown today and noticed our new West Marine anchor light (led) was not lit! It’s been on there about a month. Replaced the one that we had for about a month and the reflector inside drooped down over the aft portion of the light obscuring it from the rear. Replacement has...

Thank you for the response. I thought it was just teak oil finish but you all know what can happen when we assume. Thanks again!

Have teak plywood doors with teak band around exterior of door. I think these are standard doors (2012 - 22 Cruiser). They need to be brightened up. I think the original finish was teak oil. Does anyone know for sure what was used or have tips for refreshing. Thanks in advance.

Thanks to all for the great responses! It is truly good to keep it simple. Isn’t that the whole C-Dory theme? We do have the Jet Boil on board and use it for all the cooking we have done thus far. Looks like a new countertop is in order!

We have a Seaward Products Princess single burner cooktop in our 2012 22’ cruiser. While it lights easily, it will not stay lit. I have held the off / on knob over to light for perhaps 2 minutes and as soon as it is released the burner goes out. The fuel canister is new. It produces a very nice...

Thanks for all the good suggestions.

We are experiencing a lot of annoying noise when we turn on our fresh water pump to get water. I read in this forum that it is possibly a leak in the system which there was. I fixed that with a new filter cover and still have the noisiest pump ever. I thought maybe it was normal to have pump...
