    Battery Switch Installed

    Dr. Bob, which VSR have you chosen ? I have installed 2 "domestic" (cabin) batteries and have been considering one. Does yours have adjustable parameters for latching and dropout voltages ?

    Boat pricing...

    Jeez - I thought we were supposed to "be nice" :( . Now what happens IF the oil platforms in the North Sea have to curtail production due to ash induction into their turbines ? :shock:

    Boat pricing...

    YA-HOooooo ! Maybe I'll get a little more of a return when I sell Fan-C-Dory next year. After buying at the top of the market I was looking forward to drowning, now it looks more like a normal bath.

    iPad 3G for e-Navigation

    But if I read Jeff correctly on the other forum, it will all be on the iPad, or iPhone here is a quote - "- It stores ALL of the data offline. So if you're looking for boat ramps in the boonies, you don't need any internet connection at all. Every marker, detail, and review is included. Press...

    Pat and Patty are in South Korea!

    One day = 2 time zones, that was what it always took me. Made one trip from China, to a meeting in Houston the day of arrival, then back to China the next day SHOULD have been painless, but NOT. Go back to bed !

    Construction Question

    As many (some) of you were fortunate enough to be present during the construction of your boats - a question. What is under the floor of the head on the 25'? My toilet is mounted directly to the floor using lag bolts, and I was wondering what they were screwed into.

    Deck Layout

    What size wire did you use ? Lewmar and a EE friend of mine say #6 is OK, but that "seems" a little lite to me.

    Deck Layout

    OK, thanks Jim, I "thought" (what the heck did I just say :| ) your deck cleat was forward of the windless. I just measured mine - on the inside - the aft bolts on the cleat were only 2" fwd of the bulkhead so no way for me to have the cleat fwd of the winch, or did I mean "wench". Time for a...

    Deck Layout

    On a 25' - how far back from the bow is your deck cleat ? If you have a windless, did the bow cleat have to be relocated ? How far aft is your windless ? I'm contemplating putting on a windless to assist the deck apes (me) but remembering the layout on Wild Blue I think my bow deck cleat must...

    C-Dory 25 prop decision

    My 150 on a 25 has a 14 1/2 x 15 SS. At ~5800 RPM we do ~27-28 kts - LOADED. I've just put on a 15x15 aluminum as I'm headed for the land of the "rockfish" this summer and wanted a sacrificial prop. We spend nearly all of our time at displacement speed, so I probably won't be able to tell the...

    Water pump impeller replacement

    What - is there a market for wiper arms now ?? :roll: Just speaking from frustration, it seems that this is the way things are today. Do-it yourself, and order from the Internet !

    Water pump impeller replacement

    Jim, by-pass surgery is less frustrating than changing the wiper arm from your experience. Boris, I understand about the Honda dealers, I keep wondering IF Honda will stay in the market, or not. My local "dealer" facility looks like a "red-neck" mud bogger garage. I went in and asked how long...

    Water pump impeller replacement

    How long does it take on the 150 ? Looks like about 2 days just to get all of the faring off. Before I tackle something like this I read Jim's ('Wild Blue') adventure with the little old wiper arm - I usually then change my mind and go take a nap.

    SO WHAT DID YOU DO WITH OR ON YOUR C-DORY TODAY??

    Glad the import parts were unharmed ! What trailer brakes do you have - I want some I can lock-up.

    Guttenberg Gathering

    Our summer plans are kinda like in mush, but Iowa is between Texas and Lake of the Woods so this is certainly in the bucket.
