    TomCat 24 vs. TomCat 255?

    Not really sure why the 24 Tomcat has gotten such a bad rap from some folks on the c-brats forum. The boat is criticized for its looks here but I can tell you that it gets a lot of compliments when out and about. I can proudly say that the boat is wonderful. It is not only unique looking but...

    Launching Tomcat 255

    Wondering how often do you plan to launch, retrieve and trailer this boat. If the answer is frequently, then you might be well served to get a pickup truck. Even a beater or older large suburban type of vehicle might do.

    anyone looking to repower? good deal on a 90hp

    Sorry for the misinformation. I must be getting my wires crossed in my mind from my time with Arima's.

    anyone looking to repower? good deal on a 90hp

    I believe c-dory's use a long shaft motor with the exception of the Tomcats which use the extra long shaft outboards.

    Puget Sound Tomcat 255 charter?

    That is correct. The boat belongs to us. We have not rented it out yet though. It seems like people prefer the 24 for charter which we did manage to rent a few times this summer. Boatbound is a pretty good program for renters and can be good for the owners as well. The main benefit to...

    How install flush mounted threads into the cockpit sole

    In our Tomcat 255 the livewell is well built. It cycles on and off pumping water and keeping the contents alive. We kept 20 crabs alive while in the San Juans this summer. I would imagine it would do well for keeping bait alive for fishing as well. Not sure if that would appeal to you or...

    Roger our 255 has the livewell built in under the cockpit aft seat. Have you considered that factory option?

    Simrad Electronics Package

    Can you share your electronics package details (order cart) including price. We are considering upgrading our electronics as well and would like to get an idea of what the total cost would be. Since you already did the research, I would like to see what type of pricing is available for such an...

    Westport Coho

    Rogerbum and Discovery, do either of you have the livewell under the cockpit seat? Just wondering how well it keeps live bait alive. We have used ours for keeping crabs living for 3 days on longer trips to the San Juans, but never for keeping sardines or other live baits alive.

    Sleeping comfort on 25

    My thoughts are that if you feel its small now, then go bigger. Once you get all your cruising and fishing gear aboard, it gets tight quick. While smaller can be better in terms of fuel, towing, single handling, the 22 felt a bit cramped for us. We quickly moved to considering the 25 cruiser...

    C-dory factory on fire

    Glad that nobody was hurt. Hopefully they did not suffer loss beyond what they can quickly recover from. I saw that there were at least a few people who were ordering or getting ready to have a boat built here.

    New camperback - a few detail questions for the gang....

    Not sure if I missed it in your posts, but who is making your camper back? Also, do you have a price estimate yet? Still hoping to have one of these made someday, perhaps for the 255.

    C-Dory Sightings

    We were at the dock that same weekend (Thursday - Sunday) with 2 Tomcats, but did not manage to see the owner at Isola Bella. My brother in law wanted to see the inside of the boat, but the owner never showed up to their boat during our stay.

    Where do all the old electronics end up?

    Here in the Seattle area, a lot of boat electronics appear on craigslist.

    Sound Absorbing Paint and Helm Bar

    We used Richard Strattons Insulation product (similar to Mascoat) on our Tomcat 24. That product was sprayed on. We would like to insulate the 255 now but prefer not to have to spray the product on due to the labor involved in masking everything off. My question was whether the product...
