Lori-L
I have ran boats most of my life past the age of 19 years old. Nothing bigger than 52 feet but commercial fished all over SE Alaska and the Washington Coast and Straits of Juan De fuca. I have to tell you that these little C-Dories are one tough boat. I have had my 22 out in the Straits sometimes when I had most assuredly had rather not been there. There hasn\'t been one time when I felt like I didn\'t have control over the boat. Not too sure about Lori though. I remember one time she looked over at me and said,\"this ain\'t going to roll over is it\" I will have a little trouble giving up boating as we have known it, but Lori will turn 84 on her birthday and I guess it\'s time to do some changes. Putting the Lori L up for sale is not going to be easy.

Lori said, there is no place to just put something on this boat without setting it on the table, counter, dash, or seat... So I installed a 6 x 60 inch Port shelf trimmed in teak above the table for just stuff,,,and it already is filling up with just stuff..

Just removed the hyd Brake Control for the 2009 tandem axle EZ-Loader and cleaned everything and lubed the slider.

Lori said, our boat has no name on it... Every boat needs a name on it... Soooo, it now has a name on it.

Hinges made from starboard are made so they hold the lid open without a tie back

Home made from scraps of the Starboard. This might just work, but am not going to fasten them on quite yet without approval from the skipper..

$Finished the box and installed it to make sure it still fit after assembly, and the thing actually sets in the opening pretty good. Not real professional quality built and the color will never match , but it should work for what I am using it for just the same. Whacked out a couple scrap pieces into a hinge to see what they would look like for pivoting it forward should I ever need the engine to be tilted completely up. Not sure if I will just make them or buy a couple Perks or something like them. They are easy to make and will probably pass with a push so might go ahead and cut a couple out of the left over scraps. That way if the wife gives them one of her \"I\'m not sure about these\" looks, I can just toss them and haven\'t lost anything but time.$
