I can't comment on it curing COVID that you already have, but I took it as a Peace Corps volunteer in Tanzania, working in Angola for World Vision, and working in the Brazilian Amazon. I don't know if it cures COVID, but it must prevent getting COVID!

FYI, you can download a manual for the one currently used in the C-Dory at: https://www.scanmarineusa.com/wp-conten ... c-2011.pdf

15 amps near the main battery (the one powering the stove). There are also 15 and 5 amp blade fuses attached to the unit. Mine (I have two) are 85/Nordic DT.

You can use aluminum stock, available in different thicknesses and widths, and easily worked with drill, jigsaw (with right blades), and cutoff saw (carbide blades are best). You can try first with the supplied mounting plate, and see if you think the support is enough. If it is, no need to...

...since it is available, definitely get the BP620 backing plate as a minimum, but, in my opinion, it might not distribute forces across enough area that it won't stress things. C-Dories are built lighter than most boats (CD22 is 2000 lb for a 22 ft cabin boat). My father's 18 ft crabbing boat...

Definitely don't use silicone...it is hard to get off. If you drill, gouge (remove some balsa inside), fill with epoxy, and redrill you won't have a path for water to get into your core. I use a Dremmel with a cutter wheel the size of the drilled hole, some people put an allen wrench, which...

A comment on dehumidifiers in the C-Dory cabin. Here on rainy, misty, Anderson Island, dehumidifiers make life possible ; >) in the winter. I keep a large one in the greenhouse, one in the basement, one in the shop, one in the guest house, one in the C-Dory when on the trailer, and one to move...

This one... https://www.lowes.com/pd/Pure-Enrichmen ... 1001389040 It is about 6 in wide, 4 in deep, and 12 in high. I bought it originally to protect some installations of monitoring equipment...run with solar and battery power inside of a sealed box. It worked well, but would only hold about...

Is anyone else using a dehumidifier while underway? Each person in the cabin is continually adding water through perspiration. Any cooking or boiling (I like coffee) also adds water. I find my DC dehumidifier removes about a pint of water a day, sometimes less, sometimes a lot more. A...

Key is understanding the difference between TOTAL and RELATIVE humidity. Total humidity is water dissolved into the air. Relative humidity is what you feel, and related to the ability of water to dissolve into or precipitate, out of the air, onto you, your windows, and your cabin interior. The...

Sats se funniess sing I've loosed at recencely. Makes you sink about sings, for sure. Sank you for sat.

Addiitonal benefits... 1) Euphoria that the pandemic might eventually end 2) Better health through not worrying (as much) about the possibility of being infected or infecting others 3) The possibility that my mother might be able to celebrate her 90th birthday with family in June, at least some...

The alternative to the "Race to Alaska" this year is the WA360, which starts and ends in Port Townsend. It should be interesting for us since racers will need to pass close to Anderson Island. Here is the plan, starting June 7, and racers must finish within two weeks. . Start just off the...

Agreed that having the stronger motor is better, but the boats are very different. Here are published weights. 23 ft Venture = 3020 lbs 22 ft Cruiser = 1925 lbs 16 ft Cruiser = 925 lbs The "air" profile of the 16 is less than the 22 or 23 also. Considering the 54 (56.5 with "lift assist")...

I have the Honda 90 directly from the starter (lead acid) battery, and the Wallas directly from the house (LiFePO4). Fuses and terminal blocks for everything else. I don't understand why the Wallas is so problematic, but it works that way, and otherwise I sometimes have problems. I have blown...

This was about the same as my experience with the 55 lb on my CD22. It seemed inadequate, though I didn't measure speed. Given tides that can be 3 or 4 knots, and winds that wanted to spin the CD22 around, I found the 80 lb thrust Minnkota to be much better, particularly when tracking a course...

I stand corrected. I typed in "Minn kova 80 lb 54 inch Terrova" to search. I guess I confused the ipilot bluetooth with the ipilot link. Yes, I do have an 80 lb 54 inch shaft (nominal) Terrova Riptide (saltwater) with the square ipilot link remote. The physical shaft is actually 56.5 in to...

James; I have an 80 lb 54 inch Minnkota Terrova with IPilot Link. I'm not sure why you say they aren't available. I see one in the Minnkota store, used, at a good price. Mine definitely has Spot-Lock. It just barely fits on the bow at an angle on my CD22. You can see in the images below. It'll...

Heck, if I was in the market, I'd buy it at the advertised price just for the bragging rights about its previous owner!

Another reason total deaths for Spanish flu and COVID are not comparable directly is demographics. US census data: -------------Age year----<44---44-64---65+ --- population distribution --- --------- percent --------- 1910---81.0---14.6----4.3 2010---50.6---26.4 ---13.0 sorry about the...
