I suspect you would be looking for trouble- when a little wind gets under your cover you likely will dramatically shorten the life of your canvas.

Yeah, don't you just hate it when your balls bump against the boat!! :star :star But thanks, normally I do leave the ball in the water, but this time somehow the fishing line became wrapped in the little red stopper beads threaded my fishing line and and took both rigger line and fish line...

Holy Cow!!! Went fishing out at Jeff Head last Wed. Wind blew the boat around so badly that I couldn't tell which direction I was heading . This post is twisting and turning so much I;m getting dizzy. Much like my boat ride. This is a fun read. :xnaughty :xlol :xseek :evil: Oh...

I have a main Honda engine (a big one 225 hp) and a Honda kicker( a small one 15 hp.) Both are extremely reliable, BUT, I figure that probably 80% of motor trouble is due to some form of gas trouble, usually water in the gas. So... my solution is to carry a 3 gallon tank of fresh gas...

Hmmmm, Seems like there are mostly advantages to being the tall guy, but this isn't one. I have a Webasto heater in my aluminum boat and it is wonderful. Takes about 10- 15 minutes to bring temp up to 70-75 and hold it there. Pricey, but well worth it. I also have the premium spring seats on...

I dunnot know. Seems that any boat with inadaquate headroom for your 6'6" frame is obsolete for you before you lay your money down. It will never get any better for you, and for your back it can only get worse. You can do better, For me, I love my Hewescraft 2 cents worth

I will need further information. The exact location of the safe and it's combination. Pictures will help and when will you not be on board?

Here's a thought. Since you are repowering your kicker why not buy an electric start, with power controls from the helm( of course it is more expensive) and install conecting rod to main motor from kicker (about $65 ) so you can steer from helm. If you do not have hydraulic steering on...

Wow!!! What a lot of effort you are putting in. If I was voting -I'd go for a new trailer knowing it was safe and strong and get rid of the old one. Doesn't sound like that appeals to you ,but that's my 2 cents worth. Gary

Hmmm... Bow down. Is it possible that you have leaking into the flotation between the hull and the floor up front from outside? Possibly leaking thru the gelcoat? Not a pleasant thought. Pretty unusual for C-Dorys to be bow heavy.

Yes, factory orders are good news. In my industry, rental real estate we have been seeing a pickup in demand beginning about 17 months ago. Each month the demand gets stronger and there is a visible improvment in the attitudes of our prospects. So, on a personal level I feel good and feel that...

Not buying gas on a particular day does nothing. The only way to make any effect is to not drive and therefore not consume any gas. And you can't just push your mileage off to another day, you must consume less over a period of time. So, if everyone each month consumes less, say 1/2 tank...

Sure, This is a good place here in Ballard. Give them a call. This in in North Seattle. http://www.superiorselfstorage.biz/ There is a good free launch facility about 1/2 mile away. It is at the end of 14th Ave NW here in Ballard. Gary

When its all said and done, it's price that counts. Incicentally, in the grocery stores you will never find any prices at an even number. Always, $.59 cents or some other combo ending in .95 or .99. It is a marketing thing that relailers strongly believe in. How about $17,995 or $17.950...

I sold real estate for years, sucessfully, and know from experience that the factors are -price,condition,location, financing, and exposure. To make the sale you need to adjust those factors until all conditions line up with a buyer. Location is pretty fixed unless you deliver, so see what you...

Hmmm,.... Towing-such a subject. Just bougt a 2012 Toyota Tundra 5.7 and it does tow great. Comes with tow mirrors . Also comes with poor gas mileage about 11-13 mpg. Oh, ouch!!! So I seem to be using my daily driver a bit more- It is a 1947 Buick special- about 15 miles to the gallon. Guess...

Thinking of throwing some money at it, but then I thought, Hmmmm, can my Toyota Tacoma handle it? Rats, outclassed again!

How about taking a trouble light with a 75 watt bulb turned on to keep just a little heat in there. Sould help a lot with moisture.

I too am thinking about a new ( or used) tow vehicle. My boat, motors, gas, equipment , double axle trailer about 7000 lbs. I am not reading anything about the Toyota Tundra. What do you think of them ?

I have a 2003 Tacoma with factory tow package and capacity rated at 6500 pounds and had a 22 ft C-Dory. (now sold) Great truck , does the job of pulling OK but is underpowered for the job. So far has stopped OK , no accidents, but is nerve racking as feels like I could easily be pushed...
