We are looking for a motor to put on our dingy. We have an 8'10" Newport Vessels inflatable dingy with the air keel and plywood floor. I'm looking for recommendations for what power to put on the back of it. My parameters are that I don't want a really heavy motor as I'll have to put it on...

Colby, quite a few years ago I had a to do some inspections down at Point Loma Naval Station. We stayed at a hotel out on Shelter Island. It was a really nice place to stay with the marinas on the inside of the island. I would think that if you contacted the hotel there they may be able to...

You may want to give Tacoma Propeller (https://www.tacomapropeller.com/) a call. I've always dealt with them in the past and they are very knowledgeable and can help you decide what prop is right for you. I would guess that they have used props but not sure about that.

We have been spending our winters in Apache Junction, Arizona for the past 10 years. In our travels North to Puget Sound area every year we pass by either Lake Mead or Lake Powell and are amazed at the loss of water over just a few years. Lake Shasta is in the same or possibly worse condition...

You may want to give Skyline Marine Center in Anacortes a call 360-293-5134. You may also call Cap Sante Marina also in Anacortes at (360) 293-0694. If they don't have any they will probably know where you can call. But it may be tough to beat that price if it is covered and heated. good luck.

This thread has put together a really good collection of tools needed. There are two items that I have carried on my past boats that have come in very handy. A grab-all and a telescoping magnet. Perhaps not as useful on a Cdory as opposed to an inboard boat like an Atlas Acadia where things...

You might give Portland Marine near Clackamas, Oregon a call. I bought a Garmin chartplotter/radar from them and had good luck. They may have what you need. No Tax.

Commodore, i've not had to deal with this sort of problem yet, but when the time comes (hopefully never) I will consider the same sort of glue that a rear view mirror is attached to a window on a vehicle. You may want to check with your local NAPA out parts place for a starting point.

New verses Used. Not knowing the new market value of a 22 CDory I'd have to guess it is the range of that Parker you talked about. Something to keep in mind is that All the EXTRA stuff that you mention gets tacked on top of the new boat price. For instance you could easily spend several $K on...

I know it is a personal preference either having or not having the bow rail. My feeling is that it is a safety issue. It give you a little extra security when you are out there setting anchor or for whatever reason. even in calm bays there can be unexpected swells and having something to hang...

It sounds like you are on the right track. I would see if there is electrical to the switch first, then follow that by seeing if the power goes past the switch, if not then possibly a bad switch (rocker). Continue to follow the power down to the pump. If you have power to the pump then...

I purchased a roll of a fuzzy felt-like material to replace the liner on my last boat. It was a downeast lobster boat that was used as a workboat and the interior wasn't in great shape. I never got into the job as it would have been too time consuming to complete. At any rate the purpose of...

Colby, lately (the past few years) crabbing season doesn't open till mid July. The WDFW hasn't been very helpful in allowing for people to make their plans based on fishing seasons. They've been sporadic at announcing seasons based on catch results etc. However, if you are in to shrimping...

Just a couple of thoughts on the matter as I was in the market for a boat two years ago. First: All you have to do is look at the prices of all the other brands, they are all going up like gang busters which makes the Cdory not look so bad. The other aspect to that is that Cdorys hold their...

Thanks Bob, I will have to look into that. My main concerns would be are the LifePo4 batteries compatible with my present Lead Acid battery charging system. I also am not sure that solar panel can be used directly in conjuntion with my present battery charging. Im sure these questions are...

We got the Iceco JP30 to keep in our '25 on fishing trips. We use it as a freezer to freeze fish fillets on extended trips. It has performed well as long as the batteries dont get low in which case it will shut down. It hold the cold well so nothing thawed overnight. We are now thinking a...

Dori and I are tentatively plan on being there provided all the stars are lined up . Hopefully the weather is a little more cooperative that last year. What we didn't get for Spring we are sure making up for it with a beautiful Fall. Hope to see you all there again. Dave (Seawitch)

If you're trying to come up with a "finished edge" around the perimeter of the cutting board I would suggest making a jig of the hole you want to end up with and use a router to cut the surface as deep as you like. Not sure of the layout of the counter if you have room to use a router. If not...
