    Kenneth W. Frey, 77, passed suddenly at home on the 13th of June, 2019. Ken and wife Pat were avid boaters and owned "Pelican", a 22' C-Dory Cruiser. From Putnam, Illinois, Ken was for many years one of the organizers of the "Meet in the Middle" c-brat Mississippi River Gatherings. A good...

    Dory right for San Diego?

    Richard, San Diego and especially Shelter Island was my home for over 30 years during which time I enjoyed both power and sail boating. The 22' C-Dory would be the perfect boat for both the bay and near shore ocean activities. With the typical 90 HP motor you will be able to get back to...

    Honda 90 HP Fuel Injection Alarm

    Peter & Judy; My 2008 22 cruiser has the exact Honda motor and about the same total accumulated hours. Although the alarm never sounded while underway, it did chirp once when I started the motor from cold. My routine is to always turn on the ignition and wait one minute for the computer and...

    Honda Engine Block Casting Fault

    Thanks for that information Mike, it is similar to what I found this past week. I love the boat and would like to go forward with the purchase but hesitate. If I can find someone who has owned this motor and had the warranty done on the powerhead, or knows if there is an alternate remedy, it...

    Honda Engine Block Casting Fault

    Boris; Thanks for your reply. I have been down in New Zealand for 32 years on a seasonal basis. There is a "Rosborough Seaskiff 22" for sale here that has the Honda BF130 and I am close to making the purchase. But as always I am a careful shopper especially when it comes to large purchases...

    Honda Engine Block Casting Fault

    Between the years 2002 and 2004 the Honda BF130 outboard motor experienced problems associated with an engine block casting defect.

    Calling all VHF specialists!

    David & Val, I think you have already diagnosed the problem and don't realize it is in the antenna. 100% of the reflected power is going to be returned to the radio if a short occurs in any part of the feed-line. And as Bob has already stated, the radio's circuit has prevented damage to the...

    Permatrim

    Richard, Being originally from San Diego, the sea conditions you mentioned are familiar. Both of my 22' Cruisers had single outboard engines and both were equipped with "Permatrims". A Permatrim improves performance in several ways. One is to get the boat up on plane quicker by "ducting" the...

    STOLEN C-DORY ON 7/27/18

    Sorry to hear about the loss of your son's boat Jack! It has to take a professional rat-bag to pull off something as brazen as this! You need to put the notice out on marine radio, especially with the fishing fleet. And maybe it wise to alert the "Mounties" in case of it being hauled...

    Center Window

    Most well stocked "ACE Hardware" stores have an extensive section of fasteners. Above the nuts and bolts shelves are specialty items. The black knurled round knobs that you need with internal SAE threads are in those flat trays.
