To take a crack at an answer for SoBelle without knowing the actual unit, either way will work assuming the charger output, ACC circuit, and battery are on a common circuit. My assumption is that there are multiple "output" terminals on the unit, or two wires are connected to the same output...

A diagram of my current lithium setup is below. A couple of negative bus bars are omitted from the diagram. I was originally going with the cheaper Victron 30A DC-DC charger, but Sunbeam recommended the XS model. The XS current limits are adjustable up to 50A, and it's a relatively small unit...

Sorry to post this twice today, but I also replied to a similar "kayak rack" thread. I considered the budget plastic/conduit pipe options but opted for stainless railing components that match the boat hardware. The Yakima cargo rack might be able to clamp straight onto the 7/8in tubing if you...

I recently built a roof rack using off-the-shelf stainless railing components. It clamps onto the factory handrail, and I intend to use it with Yakima Jaylow kayak racks. I have not tested it with the kayak loaded yet, but the 7/8in tubing needed to be padded/shimmed for the removable Yakima...

I dock just inside of the locks on the lake side, so I'm not going through the locks this weekend. We went through to visit Bainbridge last weekend, and be aware that the small lock is closed for several months. You'll want a 2nd hand if you go through the large lock between now and mid-June. I...

I should be cruising from the Locks to Lake Washington and back sometime on Saturday if you see a green CD22 out there.

Congratulations on the new boat! I live in Seattle and bought a CD22 last year. It came with an older EZ Loader trailer, but I opted to purchase the boat without the trailer. Trailer storage alone at my dry stack facility is something like $150/mo (don't quote me on that). I do not anticipate...

The C-Dory 25 at Waypoint has a pending sale...

A 2006 C-Dory 25 Cruiser is available at the dry stack facility where I keep my '22. It is currently listed for $59,000 on Boat Trader and Waypoint Marine Group.

It's not a full bimini or enclosure, but I have been researching easily removable cockpit sun shades. Maybe something to consider. Here's a budget option that has decent reviews on Amazon: https://oceansouth.us/product/t-top-extension-kit-stern-shade/ A higher end custom fabricator who has a...

You might get the Tolman skiff plans and see if they can be adapted to aluminum. They're similar to the C-Dory. https://tolmanskiffs.com Granted there are tons of factory aluminum boat options available...

I should be there! --Shad

The Deckorators material is the lightest decking I could find with the best surface traction. They advertise it weighing 35% less than traditional composite decking, and I just weighed an offcut at 2.15oz/in. I have not weighed the overall deck, but it should be roughly ~100lbs. From my forum...

For those of us with older boats that did not come with a factory cockpit floor, I recently built one out of composite deck boards. The removable deck is waterproof and maintenance free, and it has been keeping my feet out of the usual puddle of water that sloshes around. It only took an...
