Old seating

I ended up getting this Sea Dog one, $39 from Fisheries Supply. Fits like a glove!

Keegster: Yes, please give us a pic of your “yogq pants” and rig. :lol: Roof paint: You can also get heat-reflecting paint in white. It’s for residential roofs so dunno if it will work on fiberglass.

If you’re not doing a shade cover, it seems a 10x10 hatch as suggested by thataway would be the way to go. Make them forward-opening and put one over each seat and you’d be pulling a breeze directly onto each passenger. You could then have insulated hatch covers on them, when closed, for shade.

Subscribing to hear everyone’s ideas! I may need something for our 16-footer as well, come summertime. One thought is to shade the roof somehow. There’s a guy in Youtube (Back Waters and Back Roads) who has a Yakima type roof basket on his 16-footer. Add a thin plastic or plywood panel in the...

I recently investigated electric power as well. One of the companies I reached out to was Pure. They were extremely responsive and helpful and worked hard to answer all my questions, including range and speed estimates specific to my 16’ C-Dory. This included a personal call with one of their...

The reason I’m scared by this idea of drilling into the floor is that my boat is in the water fulltime and I don’t have a trailer. So I may go with the epoxy trick. Or maybe move the battery forward to the cuddy. :roll:

Marco: That sounds scary. I’ll search prior posts for more ideas.

I’m installing a new battery on my 1988 16’ C-Dory Angler on the floor back near the transom on the starboard side. I’ll need to mount it to the floor, obviously, and there is no mount there to start with that I’m aware of. Can anyone give me advice about the best way to mount a battery in this...

Thanks Salmon Fisher, I found that one!

Looks like Englund Marine (note correct spelling) has them but you have to buy the entire wiper assembly for $49. ... https://www.englundmarine.com/products/manual-windshield-wiper%7CSEA412601-1.html

My 1988 16’ C-Dory Angler is missing one of the hand-operated levers for the windshield wipers. Where can I find a replacement? Looks like this...

Thanks C-Green, good idea. I’ll look into that.

Absolutely it’s possible to boat in the Delta now! Weather wise, I think it’s the best time. Summer can be not only very hot but also buggy and very windy. There’s also fewer people boating this time of year so you’ll have more space to yourself. The one downside in winter is water weeds. They...

My wife & I have just acquired a 1988 16-foot C-Dory. I believe “Fisherman” is the correct model name for this year. I’ve already received a lot of help from folks on this forum and I’m grateful for that. Below is a photo of the boat. My post in the “wanted” forum explains how she joined the...

Thanks for all the feedback. I think I will mount the new antenna on the roof somewhere.

Harvey: Unfortunately I hate dryer sheets too, so they will have no place on this boat!

Thanks John, very helpful!
