    Shelves/Drawers advice

    It's a blank canvas in there, easy and fun to modify for your needs. Here are a few ideas for increased storage on the TC. http://www.c-brats.com/modules.php?set_albumName=album474&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php

    honda generator question

    Francisco, I don't believe the Honda has a battery as it is a pull-start design. They can be had for $ 949 at wise sales! http://www.wisesales.com/eu2000ia-honda ... fgodlGQA9w

    Choice of Electric over hydraulic actuator

    Bob, The Carlisle HydraStar works perfectly with the 2006 Ford built-in controller. No adapter needed. I mounted mine way up out of the way so it would stay dry.

    Floating Ground

    When using a Honda 2000i Generator with our old TC, I used to get a ground fault warning on the BlueSeas panel. It didn't affect the operation but was a concern. On my RV owners site, I found out the reason and the cure. An easy fix. http://www.noshockzone.org/generator-gr ... al-bonding

    Used C-Dory 22 or new Boston Whaler 190? Best for 1st boat?

    There's night and day differences between an open Whaler and a cozy cabin boat like a C-Dory. I don't think there are any rivers or lakes around Dana Point so you're talking about open Ocean boating. Storms come up quickly out there and open boats can swamp. No contest in my opinion. Go for...

    More Questions for Tomcat Rigging

    You'll notice that the shower enclosure, stove, sink, plumbing, helm stations and steering is all on the starboard side. Adding a Port water tank or batteries under the dinette will help even things out. Load the fridge up with beer too! :lol:

    Misc Tomcat Questions

    Westie, The Port/Starboard fuel switch switches the fuel gauge between the two tanks. The tanks are separate and don't cross feed unless extensive modification has been done. A little teak oil restores the shine and protects the wood. The best cleaner for the floor inside and in the cockpit...

    Launching Tomcat 255

    For launching a TomCat, a steep ramp is best. The hulls sit on top of the fenders rather than between them as with a mono-hull. The trailer has to go in quite deep before the boat will float off. Your trailer fenders will be under water completely. Retrieving is another story altogether! :disgust

    Trailer Tire Monitor Systems for Heavy Rigs

    Having gone to the "Dark Side" RVing vs boating, we have become very aware of tire problems that many have faced. We have been lucky so far with no failures. It is very hard to find trailer tires that are not manufactured in China (China Bombs!). One couple that supplements their full timing...

    Sequim & Port Angeles C Dory owners

    How about the Prime Rib Dinner at the Oasis in Sequim? $14.95! Friday night would allow working folks like Sleepy-C and C-Renity to attend. We can make reservations if folks would like that venue. Or suggest an alternative. We can pick up boaters at the marina if need be.

    Anyone used a Hook and Moor?

    Pretty slick but there are much cheaper gadgets out there that do the same thing. Happy Hooker being one of them.

    Introducing Wild Blue's new owners...

    I was wondering how you were going to tow two trailers home! Congratulations on the sale. I know exactly how you feel, having been there, done that last year. Hope we can hook up sometime out on the road. We'll be in the Southern Utah National Parks in Sept.
