Congrats! Current or future C-Brats?

On the 2006 25 we had, we ran a 50 qt ARB fridge/freezer overnight at anchor with incandescent anchor light and did fine with (2) Group 31 lead acid batteries and did fine. We also had a 100 watt flexible solar panel on top of the bimini for recharging. No refrigerator on that boat, just the...

Baxter was such a Wonderful Dog. We sure will miss him. Over Rainbow Bridge he goes. You and Patty take care.

You're absolutely right, Pat! :lol:

Yes, that's the plan! We need another christening, too. I will PM you with our details.

Thanks Brock! See you out there real soon. Funny how things work out.

Kim and I did indeed purchase Randy's 2004 25 Cruiser! If it weren't for Dr. Bob's keen observation we probably would not have had the chance to purchase the boat. Thank You Dr. Bob! It was a pleasure to meet Randy after a quick drive down from Washington State. The boat showed even better...

https://corvallis.craigslist.org/boa/d/ ... 01853.html Well outfitted boat. Better price than new. Can be repowered at Sport Craft in Portland.

I see others have used Coastal Propane in Prince Rupert in the past.

Where is the boat's new home?

Merry Christmas from the Pacific Northwest to all C-Brats!

Thank You Will! I don't know what I would do without C-Brats on the interwebs!

Thank You Chromer!

With a light to moderate load, you might want to power with a 90 hp engine. It won't be working nearly as hard and you'll probably get better economy. When you carry a full load, on the odd occasion, you'll have the power to get you where you want to go. What is your intended use of the boat...

We sure will miss Roger. He loved to talk C-Dory and fishing and hunting. We loved his trombone solos, playing taps at sunset at the FHCBGTs. We were sitting on the porch of the Turn Point light station keeper's quarters on Stuart Island one July day in 2018 and he pulled up in his 25. Roger...

Our jaws (Kim's and mine) hit the floor on this one! No, absolutely, no way can you two leave the C-Brats! Jim said it best, "You two have always been "the heart" of this C-Brat community..." Joe and Ruth, you're both the best and we hope you'll still come to gatherings if you are boatless in...

Glad you "unlocked" the problem you had initially with the battery. What was your solution?

Pat Anderson, How did your Lithium Battery installation go? What was the performance like?

I also have a Wallas 1300 Kerosene heater in the 22 Cruiser. Great heat! Here's the link for Scan Marine: https://scanmarineusa.com/products/heaters/

You need to install a 12 volt refrigerator. A 120 volt fridge will run off an inverter, but you lose a lot when inverting from 12 volts to 120 volts. You can look into getting a 12 volt/120 volt Engel or ARB Fridge/Freezer. Many on C-Brats have done it. Very efficient.
