We have a 2006 25 CD. When we use the water from the freshwater holding tank it smells like rotten eggs/sulphur. It is bad! We don't like to turn it on or use it. We have flushed and refilled the tank 3 times! We have our boat moored at the same marina where we kept our 22' CD. We have only...

Hi Catman, That would have been us! My wife Lynn and I made a trip up to the canal from Des Moines that weekend.

Thanks Gary. I think you are probably on the right track. I did check the oil level and it was full. I'm thinking it's most likely one of the things you mentioned. The only other possibility that I can come up with is a defective oil pump. I have a call into Rick @ C-Dory. I'm hoping I don't...

Hi All, We have a 2005 Honda Classic 8 for our kicker. It only has about 4 hours on it. This morning we were using it to troll. I noticed that the green oil pressure light was not on. I shut it down and restarted. The light would not come or stay on at trolling speed. As I increase the RPM's it...

Thanks alot you guys. I'll take care of this tomorrow. Ron, what is a "paint pressure pot"? Sounds slick, I've never heard of it before.

Thanks Gary, i appreciate it. This is the standard method that I've used in the past with my old Johnson motors. I think the BF90 came with a hand pump to pump the new oil in, I'll go over to the boat and try to find it. Thanks again for the advise! Terry

Hi All, We just hit the 100 hr mark on our 2004 BF90. I want to change both the engine and lower unit oil. The owners manual gives fairly detailed instructions for the engine oil however I couldn't find anything on the lower unit. Has anybody changed their lower unit oil themselves or is this...

Gary, I'm down at Outdoor Emporium about once a week. I'll check and see if they have them. Thanks again for the info I appreciate it. Terry

Gary, Those mounts look simple, strong, and durable! I think they would work well in any rail mount application. Thanks for taking the time to post the pictures. Terry

Thanks again you guys. Yes, the less drilling the better!!

Thanks everybody, I really appreciate the tips and advise. We currently have a 2005 22 Crusier now and are prety sure we will be moving up to the 25. Gotta have downriggers! I have Scotty electric downriggers mounted on the gunales now and like them just fine. In looking at the 25's I could see...

Hi, I've been looking in the albums trying to see where folks mount their downriggers but haven't been able to see any. It looks like they would have to me mounted aft of the railing? Terry

Thanks Gary. I'll make a trip down to West Marine and see what they have.

Thanks you guys, Mike your setup sounds like the way to go! I'm going to buy the rope and swivel this weekend and locate a marine supplier who can splice the swivel onto the rope. Terry

Hi, How are you tying off to mooring bouys? We have a 22 Cruiser with the single anchor rope deck cleat mounted on the center of the bow. When tying off to a mooring bouy the line snags on the anchor and roller when the boat spins. I've noticed that most boats have two deck cleats mounted near...

Hi Joe & Bobbie, I can only address your first question. We bought a 22 Crusier @ the boat show last August. We bought it from the factory not through a dealer. C-Dory threw in some extras for the boat show, anchor, anchor rope & chain, a safety kit which included 4 life jackets, flare kit and...

Thanks everybody for all of the tips, advise, and suggestions! I appreciate it :wink:

Thanks everybody for all of the tips & ideas :) Swee Pea, I just happen to have a piece of 1x4 oak in the basement! Did you buy an off the shelve stain, or did you mix your own?

Hi All, We purchased a new 22 Cruiser this past September and are still in the process of outfitting & customizing. I am looking for suggestions on where to hang the fire extinguisher. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks! Terry

My wife and I went to the Boat Show yesterday and purchased a 22' Cruiser. Jeff Messmer made an attractive offer that we felt compelled to take advantage of. We opted to go with the 90 hp Honda w/ 8hp Honda kicker, hydralic steering, tim yabs, Wallas stove/heater and some other stuff. We are...
