How about "fishin on a Dory". http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eHf3qKgzX9 ... Hf3qKgzX9c

Dustin and All.... Glad to see you are enjoying the boat. It makes me smile. Living where you do gives you great opportunities to use the boat for its designed purposes. Keep the photos and experiences coming. Ron

The Mercury was a yamaha power head...mostly. Some of the internal parts were mercury however -- like the camshaft..

Sensor cam does not feedback info to the trim motors, so does not affect operation. Most likely a trim solenoid or bad connection.

The sender is held on by 2 screws and 1 plug in 2 wire clip. Takes a bout 10 minutes. But.......they may have had to remove the trim/tilt ram assembly to do it, which can either be easy, if all fasteners are well lubbed and come out easily, or hard, if the fasteners are stuck and require a...

Dustin, I used to hang my portable vhf from one of the rocket launchers so it was handy while fishing. I do think it would be a good idea to have some flares on your person in case rescue is needed. A ditch bag could be affixed out in the cockpit area to come loose and float by you if swamping...

Great story -- nice to see a textbook rescue by people that are well-equipped and prepared. Ron

To answer the question, the steering wheel has a standard taper (3/4 inch), which is on most all of the boat wheels. You just need to order the correct diameter wheel that suits you. Look up "destroyer" steering wheel.

Once again, I am requesting info on what prop size you may be using on a Honda 40 powering a 16 ft c-dory. I am trying to make a choice for a Glen-L cabin skiff -- a boat much the same size and shape as a c-dory.

Often the outer cable sheath has markings giving the size.

Glad you got it going. Some boat related issues are a real nightmare. Have a nice holiday . Ron

Port Alberni Boat House was selling them last year.

Wondering what prop size is being used on a 40hp Honda on a 16 ft c-dory. Got a hobby boat (16ft cabin skiff ) which is a similar design to the c-dory, and it had a prop that was spun on the hub, and the markings indistinguishable. Pretty flat pitch, and a yamaha prop. Would like to go to a...

Perhaps you should try to trace the green wire and see if there is a break in it or another connector that is corroded or not mating effectively. Seems like it is the culprit. Ron

Sounds like the main metering jet. They have a very small hole that passes through the jet tube, and once plugged, they are almost impossible to clean. New ones are about $15 each, so for about $45 in parts for each motor, it should be fine. The carbs need to come off, and the float bowl...

Be careful when trailering with the rods on the rocket launchers. I was rigged to get on the water in Port Alberni, and went down a side street after buying license and various tackle. All of a sudden I had a great hit, the reels started stripping line and clicking like a Tyee was on the...

I have had a power mover for several years and use it often. The trailer has a cylinder mounted on plates that are permanently bolted to the trailer. The mover has a solid metal 2 1/2 inch round stock that slides into the trailer cylinder. That way the mover will not tip over. Much better...

Hi Dustin. I send you an email wondering about your progress, and included a photo of my latest project. I then went looking to see if you had posted anything on the down tilt. Low and behold, the jumper told the story. Good.. I would bite the bullet and put in correct parts. They fit, and...
