akpilot My supplier mentioned that the states also uses MC cable which is similar to teck but not quite as flexible. Captains Choice I didn't bother quoting you on the aluminum cable as you seemed dead against it but in this day and age with the price of copper going through the roof I would...

Captains Choice Sorry it took abit to get back to you. I was in at my suppliers today and asked if they sell into the States. He said they sell to the mills in Washington State and also to a company in Maine so I assume it can be gotten. I asked for a quote for 3 conductor #1 teck and was given...

Captains Choice In Canada we have a product called Teck cable that is used for direct burial. It has a rubber sheath on top of the conductors, a steel armour on top of that and then pvc jacket on top of that. We use it all the time up here. I have wired a couple of marinas and we use it going...

Up here in Canada I pay 100.00 per month on Harrison lake. No power but tghe docks are good and the parking is a locked compound. Jimbo

OK Guys I have a problem not related to Cdorys but to do with bilge pumps. My other boat is a 20' Regal with tower and ballast system that I built for the kids for wakeboarding. I bought a ballast puppy pump for the filling and draining of the bags. It only pumps 9gpm which is too slow. I picked...

Sea Wolf What I meant was some close up pix of the extension while under way just to see how it looked.( engines low in water or whatever) The only pix I see underway is the last one in his album. Jimbo

Sea Wolf I followed Billys extension from start to finish and am very impressed with the job. I would like to see some running pictures though. And Oldgrowths project looks good too. Jimbo

Sea Wolf Thanks for the info and article. And to think that all I thought was out there were inboards, inboard/outboards and outboards. Tnx, Jimbo

Thanks for the info. I had never heard of a Seadrive set up. Was/is it still very common? Jimbo

Not sure what you guys are all smokin but am I wrong to say that this boat has a 150 hp OUTBOARD on it now???? So a bracket is not required Jimbo

Mark; When I reread your comment I noticed you said that you used a Cdory hull with a "V". Did Cdory have a hull mould with semidisplacement lines at one time? Jimbo

Furry I am also thinking about putting a bracket on my 1981 22' one day and made some inquires about getting one made. I found a place in Richmond that makes mostly custom aluminum fuel tanks but has made outboard brackets in the past. I never got as far as price but did talk to him and he...

Sounds like a scene out of a James Bond movie!!! Jimbo

Furry I have a 22' with a 1981 hull and it just fine. I had a survey done on a 27 that was in the southern states. The hull came out very good but the power plant was a problem so I walked away. How far do you have to go to see this boat? Good luck Jimbo

therrick; I think the hull you were looking at was the one from the Seattle Boat Show that the factory kind of threw together because they had promsied the new unveiling. I noticed some issues with the finishing too, but put it down to getting it ready for the show so that we could at least have...

Pat; Was that your ship that had the Canadian Coast Guard helicopter pick up some lady that had a heart attack? Made the second page in BC papers. Jimbo

Fred; While Sher is (was!!) sitting on her seat the leg stayed in fine. if no one was on the seat in a bad chop then the leg would jump out of the socket. What broke was the actual connection point of the hinge under the gunnel It appears to have been glued and screwed. I'm sure if you are just...

Fred Just to let you know I did the same thing with my 1981.Strapped the seat down with a strap and Sher the navigator who weighs in at about 130lb. had her seat. It has worked great until... about two weeks ago we were coming back from our cabin on Harrison lake heading into about a 4' chop I...

I'm sure all you US navy guys have read this one, but it still gives me a chuckle, supposedly this actually took place... Jimbo Stn 1: Please divert your course 15 degrees to north to avoid a collision. Stn 2: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid...

Craig; Nice to see another fellow Canuck on the site. Although going from Victoria to Kingston... well we all have to make sacrifices.... I own a 1981 Hunky Dory which was what the first Cdorys where called. I use it mostly on Harrison Lake as we have a cabin up there. The boat is all that I...
