Tightening that screw back down holding the bracket was the main problem. Going into reverse like it should now! 😊

Well that was a PITA! I had been having some issues shifting the main outboard in to reverse on C-Traveler. Replacement of the throttle and shift cables helped some but not completely. I found the shift rod bracket, hidden in the bottom pan beneath the powerhead, was lose. The single bolt that...

Nah. I'll pass. ". When you combine shop labor, rigging materials, and the required digital engine swap, a realistic total turn-key conversion will cost $30,000 to $36,000" :p

Got the new cables and shift position switch, and got them all installed. Everything seems to be working good on the muff. I'll get it out to the lake tomorrow or Monday and see how it's all working. Took a little finessing to get the cables through the bundle of wires and hoses, but...

Regardless what method is used to "pull" the cables through, zip ties will likely need to be cut if they are installed tightly. Fortunately for me, I've reran so many wires along this area, I have not overly tightened the zip ties. Pulling the cables by connecting them directly to the old...

Could be a good idea. However, I do have plenty of other line on the boat, larger of course, for various uses. Fortunately, at home I have two electrical fishing tapes. :) However, in this case, having a coupling nut to attach the old and new cable together should be the easiest method to...

Yep. That is my plan. I also purchased a couple of coupling nuts to connect the cables together to make it easier to just pull them thru. :cool: (I've also pulled out my drawers, and their cabinet, under the helm seat for better access, along with the side compartment in the cockpit.) Just...

Found it. Thanks. 24’

Did a quick search, and couldn't find an answer, so I'll start a new thread. I may need to replace my throttle and shift cables on my 2009 CD-25, single screw, and wondering if anyone knows what length cables are needed. They run from the throttle at the helm, down inside the starboard gunnel...

Congratulations. You got a great boat. I know Alain made a lot of great memories with her. May you continue to make your own memories on her.

Considering my reply was almost 11 years ago, and I upgraded to a 25 about 6 years ago, I'm just going from poor memory here, but I believe I had it under the helm seat. And just to clarify, that was the main computer sensor. I did not have a rudder sensor on my 22. Colby

Hi Steve, You must have had different experience than I. I've liked the half dozen times or so I've been slung launched at Cap Sante, with both the 22 and 25. Didn't find it a hassle at all. In fact, they did a lot better job centering the boat on the trailer than I usually do myself. Colby...

St Ignace has a nice launch and large parking area. I have left my truck and trailer there for up to a week. Their launch and parking fees have increased this past year. I believe for out of state residents it's $10/day or $70 for a annual pass. The launch and parking is about a mile from...

Hi Alain, I told you it would go fast. Glad to know it did. I'm sure you'll have a lot of fond memories of times on the boat. I'm looking forward to hearing about any upcoming travels you may do with a possible camper. Colby

Just tentative plans for now, but looking at finishing up the Tennessee River in October. I know several that went along with me two years ago, mentioned they'd be interested in the Harrison Bay State Park to Guntersville, Al., leg, if and when I did it. This was part of the original plans...

Just a quick note. The three of us are all back at home. We had a good time cruising the British Columbia Coast. The boats handled the waters well. There were days we went out while the larger trawlers were still in harbor waiting for calmer seas. We ended up pulling out a day or two...

Weights on my CD-25, and aluminum twin axle trailer with spare tire. You can open the pdf file for all the weights in regards to the 25, but basically max weight on the 25 fully loaded is 8400 lbs with 660lbs on the tongue. I don't have the file anymore for my prior 22, but it weighed around...

I've cruised with Alain a few times, and believe the boat is in very good shape. Alain, I see you decided to definitely sale DeJa La. I've enjoyed cruising with you, and will miss doing a Sea of Cortez cruise with you sometime. I still wonder when I will be ready to revert back to a land...

When I had my 22, I had window curtains. During the day, we used the portapotty in the V-Berth, where it was kept. At night, we moved it to just in front of the cabin door.

I lost my Uniden MHS75 handheld on my recent trip out west, and ended up replacing it with a different brand. I have a spare battery, antenna and two charging cords if anyone is interested. You can have them for the price of shipping. Approximate weight is 13 ozs, plus whatever the mailing...
