Couldn't really see the pictures but if you don't have trim tabs I would strongly recommend putting them on. The flat hull pounds really easy without them. Jimbo

Yes that is what I get. I use 5 gal portable tanks as my boat stays in the water most of the year and it's cheaper to buy at the gas station than at the marina. It is 45 to 55 min run, depending on weather, to our cabin. I set the throttle at 4000 RPM and am doing around 24 to 26, depending on...

Tug; I've got a 115 4 stroke on my 22 and love it. Running flat out with no load I can also do about 37 knots. Going up to our cabin I cruise nicely at about 26, 4000 RPM and burn just under 2 gal hour. I did have a wiring issue but that was due to a bad house battery that took out my altenator...

chimoii Glad PBH had a Cdory at the Victoria show. I was disappointed at not seeing any at their display the Vancouver show. Jimbo

Welcome fellow Canucks. This is a great site and a great group of boaters. As far as bringing a boat into Canada from Washington State, it's a piece of cake. Make sure you have separate bills of sale for the boat AND the trailer. Don't be shocked when the seller leaves the plate on the trailer...

I bought a used 115 Merc EFI in 2009 that was a fishing camp exlease that had 900 hours when I bought it. It had a brand new bottom end installed and was great. I did have an electrical problem last year but figured out it was my own fault as I had a bad battery issue that sent the alternator...

Hey Simon; Welcome to the form, I have my boat out at Harrison Lake, It's an oldie but a goodie. With the dollar being where it is, take a look at the boats in Washington State, just a short drive across the border. I bought my boat from a guy there and had no issues bringing it into Canada. If...

I have to agree. I didn't think I saw a West Marine booth, now I know why. I think the show was a bust. I didn't get down to the floating portion as the weather was lousy when I went to the show. I will agree that PBH display was one of the best looking there, seemed to be lots of interest in...

Thanks for all the info. I agree that ebay is a bad move. I checked out ladyben and will try there once I get pictures. This boat is 27' with an 8' beam so it will fit on a "normal trailer." It has a rebuilt 350 with about 400 hours on it. They are hoping to get around $5,000.00 for it, which...

This isn't directly Cdory related but is to do with boating so I hope it's OK to post. I have a cousin who has boated all his life but sadly had a stroke on Boxing Day and now has a long road of physio ahead of him. They currently own a 1965 Fairliner that has been on Harrison Lake in the Fraser...

Ah excuse me Mr Da Nag I really don't want to bother you but at some point in time do you think it might be possible to add me to the brat map... Again sorry to bother you with this, and sorry about Celine EH!! Tnx JIMBO

Check with the place you bought your unit from. I also have a CPAC and picked up a 12 volt cigarette lighter plugin cord from the place I got my unit from. I think these run on a low voltage and are transformerd down in the 110 volt cord. Tnx, Jimbo
