Nick - I am on the Dalles Mountain with no Internet connection except for my iPhone and it is a sick excuse for posting on this forum. Somehow I missed your question earlier. I will measure the boat on the trailer when I get back to Olympia this weekend.

No Roger – there are no losers or winners here. Just C-Brats having fun and enjoying the comradeship. Dave www.tolandmarine.com

Warren – thank you and while I agree, I really don’t want to make this into a political or even controversial topic. Roger and I are just poking fun at each other and having fun at the others expense. I am sure he even agrees with me about the definition of a fisherman. He just wanted to get a...

Roger – I am going to have to respectfully disagree with you here. A fisherman or fisher is someone who captures fish and other animals from a body of water, or gathers shellfish. Worldwide, there are about 38 million commercial and subsistence fishermen and fish farmers. The term can also be...

Pat – thanks for the question. There is not any wood used in the construction of our boat except in the cabin. Those parts with wood are the cabinets which is Decraguard with Teak trim, the same for the overhead shelf and table plus there is a Teak hand rail for the Port side passenger. The...

Nick – first off welcome to the C-Brats. You will not find a greater bunch of boating people (more helpful or knowledgeable than this group). Take this with a grain of salt because I admit, I am prejudiced. I believe the Marinaut is a better boat than either the 19 or 22 C-Dory because I was...

Roger – it will be my pleasure. However it may be hard to get Tom off his 27. A boat isn’t truly christened until it has fish guts on it and I know his 27 has been christened more than once so maybe he will help with the Marinaut. But first I have a tentative date for a test cruise with my...

Ruth & Joe – thank you for a great get together. As always, you did a fantastic job of organizing this event. I also want to thank all the Brats that contributed to making this an unforgettable experience. If I tried to remember everyone and thank them individually, I know I would forget many...

I will be loading up before sunup Saturday and should be there early Saturday Morning. And look what I am bringing with me. Dave www.tolandmarine.com

Things are looking good for me to make it there a little after daylight on Saturday morning. The boat won’t be finished but hopefully it will float. The engine is on but we are still waiting for a fuel sensor for one of the fuel tanks. Tom at Tom’s Outboard in Olympia says it will be here by...

Greg – The answer is yes, however the connecting linkage may have to be custom made and the type of main engine and kicker will have an effect on it. We will put a 90hp Honda on our demo boat and eventually a 9.9hp Honda kicker. When we do that, we will design a connecting linkage for the two...

Greg – there will be a swim platform on the stern with ladder. The kicker engine will be mounted on a bracket on the stern. We kept the engine well small so there would be ample room on both sides of it for bait wells, auxiliary fuel tanks, large coolers or other large bulky items. I will be...

Jim – I still have not been able to get the dimensions of the 22 C-Dory Cruiser’s door window. The only boats I have been seen lately are the newer one with the solid glass door and a 1982 Classic. If you are still interested, we can start a new thread asking if anyone knows the dimension of the...

marco – when I extended my 16 cruiser (C-Voyager), I built two saddle fuel tanks for the boat (not Coast Guard certified). Saddle tanks will help a great deal in balancing your load and increase your fuel capacity as well as freeing up space under the engine well. I believe it is one of the best...
