    What size torque wrench?

    The 20 to 150 pound sounds good. Life is too short to work with cheap tools.

    Cruising equipment

    With respect to gear to carry you will get a lot from this forum. When my wife and I cruised our 22 sometimes we were out for 4 to 5 weeks at a time. We also cruised a lot in other small boats. The less you carry the better. As to good dress up clothes, we found that travel clothing from LL...

    C-Dory Factory Questions for the Group

    It is very interesting to read the comments of so many owners. Our 05 had the removable two piece floor boards. There was a slight rattle that we corrected with a little closed cell foam. The small loss of depth in the cockpit was not a problem for us. It was nice to have a flat floor for tables...

    BYRDMAN, SENSEI, LAST-DANCE CROSS COUNTRY GIG......AGAIN

    Hi to the road gang, God help the truck stop wait staff. I will be looking forward to hearing all about it when we see Last Dance in Florida. We got lucky and got a camp site at Ortona South and it looks like we will have a water view-all for about $15.00 a night. Saving so much money we will...

    Hi El and Bill, Now you have made me really hungry. Not to play one upmanship with you, but I am going to go a few miles south and get a Maryland Crab Cake made with all lump meat and very little filler. Just a good as lobster and a lot closer. Next month we will go to an oyster festival...

    The Racoon and the clam

    We have been to Indiantown many times and have probably seen that gator. Do they still have the two turtles that come alongside and beg at the fuel dock? By the way how is the racoon and the clam making out? Fred, Pat and Mr Grey(the cat)

    The Racoon and the clam

    Thanks for sharing your adventure with the two critters. I wish I had a solution for you. Keep trying. Fred, Pat and Mr. Grey(the cat) PS We will be living for two weeks along the ICW near Lake O. We will have to keep Mr. Grey away from the water. I don't think he would fair very well...

    Hi EL and Bill, I am fighting the battle with my waist line,then you talk about the Finch and Chubb. A fine restaurant to be sure. Now tonight there is a post about a giant lobster. I will resist a trip to the fridge! You sure made good time across NY- you did not stop at the Newark Diner...

    Fog on inside of windows.

    The propane heater is the source of the fogging. In our early days we traveled in a dodge van and we used a propane heater to get it warm in the morning. We always had a lot of moisture. We used the same heater in our boats with the same results. Open a hatch and a window and it will help. Note...

    honda 150s

    I was glad to learn of the efficiency at lower speeds that fuel injection adds. Our RF-246 was powered with a 4.3 Injected MercruiserI/O. Our next 246 would have an over 200HP OB. The main reason would be for more cockpit room. I am a beliver in having power when you need it and anything less...

    Sea Sport Acquisition

    I would not be afraid to purchase C-Dory with out the warranty if the price was right. I would feel a little left out in the cold if I had purchased a new boat thinking I would be covered only to find out that I was on my own.My guess is that the selling dealer would do as much as possible to...

    Fluid Marine Sold!!!!!!!!!!

    It's good to have Byrd Man on the move. He sure doesn't let any barnacles grow on him from sitting in one place. I hope he visits the factory and gives us the latest info. If the factory is following this string of posts I want to say again that we need a dealer to cover the Chesapeake Bay...

    Like a cork !

    That's what I love about a C-Dory. There are not any boats in the size and price range of C-Dorys that do so much. If I were in the market for another trailer cruiser I would purchase another 22 cruiser. What other cruiser can go in less that a foot of water and yet handle some serious big...

    V-berth memory foam?

    We had our local custom foam furniture company make a memory foam mattress for our boat. It was quite expensive because of the covering we picked. The end result was wonderful sleeping with out the hassel of several pieces of bedding. We have used a Travasak for many years. We still have the...

    Hi Bill and El, As always you two just do it. Ramps with bears and all. a wonderful story and lovely pictures. I liked the shot of snow up on the rocks. Even Pat would have liked the smooth water. Enjoy your trips to the doctors-they need our money plus what they get from Medicare. Keep on...
