    new carpet for trailer beams

    Just finished the same bunk recarpet for the C-Brat last week. Only difference is that I used stainless steel 3/4" staples. Or maybe you also used stainless, you didn't mention the staple material. Lowes really came through. Also replaced the 2X6 bunks and 2X4 side rails since the rails...

    C-Dory owners

    When looking all over for an item like a boat or a car, I prefer Oodle.com. If you plug in your location and tell it to check the entire country you will be surprised as to how many C-Dorys are for sale. Check this out! Around 50 listings from many sources. Don

    10/16 - C-Dory Gelcoat Class

    Dave et al, I really would like to go - even to get 1/2 pint or a pint of Tailgate Blue and join the fiberglass gathering but spousal unit will be in New Jersey across the middle of October and I'll be holding the fort here. :cry: I will add some general knowledge to the fray. There is an...

    New Cdory owners and thank you.

    Welcome aboard. I think you will genuinely enjoy your new boat and your new computer forum. In our case, we serendipitously visited a C-Dory dealer, drawn from an ad in some boating mag. Saw it, ordered a new one and only then did we discover the Brat site. Fortunately it was early enough...

    A Nice Visit with Scott at Triton Marine

    Plus Scott is accessable. Something he can be in the new lean mean Triton machine. I expect that to fade in direct proportion to their future growth, but the impression I got was that he is dedicated to keeping close contact with C-Dory customers and if it isn't Scott personally it will be...

    Hallelujah!!

    More kudos for Scott and the new Triton Team! I needed some gelcoat numbers for color matching. Scott came through. The numbers were for the fairly common C-Dory white and the dark blue. I forgot to ask about the inside grey splattery looking stuff on the floors, but if I need it I know where...

    10/16 - C-Dory Gelcoat Class

    John, I jumped into the gelcoat matching arena this past week. Found out there is an alternative to Spectrum called MiniCraft.com and interestingly, it's also in Florida and though it's far more comprehensive, it seems to duplicate Spectrum in many ways. I ended up emailing Scott at Triton...

    Newbee to electronics

    Ahh but do they have the equivalent of this software? I truly enjoyed viewing my sonar information on the big screen PC and picking off GPS coordinates to play with on the next trip. If they do, Garmin would probably move up on my wish list. 'Till then, the Lowrance Elite-5 DSI will sit high...

    Lifting power of the C-Dory hull.

    Especially someone from YOUR workplace. :mrgreen: Can you say "never live it down?" It just proves it can happen to anybody. Have a better day Don

    Newbee to electronics

    I've used the Raymarine C-80 system including radar/fishfinder and I've used a Lowrance high end (at that time) chart plotter/fishfinder with Furuno radar. Unfortunately my Garmin experience has been limited to Streetpilots and Nuvi's. :? Gotta agree with Roger. The Raymarine is absolutely...

    Motor hours and size

    Mike, I'm just gonna disagree with Charlie, mainly because I'm in a disagreeable mood or maybe because I had a 4 stroke 75 hp on the Jenny B and was extremely satisfied. Given that the early Evinrude you're looking at is probably a 2 stroke, it's lighter weight puts us pretty even in the power...

    Towing CD with Jeep

    Oh lord, don't get him started. I'll just say Verizon gained a new acolyte. :roll: Don

    Weird News Category: 8 ft 'Bull" shark caught in the Po

    Not surprising. With the number of lawyers in DC, one would expect the scent alone would draw more sharks. Plus the copious amounts of bovine feces entering the Potomac around the beltway has to attract scavengers considering there is only one outlet to sea for all that muck. Not to mention...

    Lowrance radar and other questions

    If it's a NMEA 2000 heading sensor it should work fine on the Lowrance NMEA 2000 bus. Caveat: I can't guarantee it will because I haven't personally tried it but I have mixed Lowrance and RayMarine NMEA 2000 devices before and they all spoke the same language. I've even used the Lowrance GPS...

    Airborn C-Dory

    Whoa, looks like your C-Dory is totalled along with the trailer. What a shame. I sincerely hope your boat was insured at agreed value, not NADA. Don

    Uh Oh III

    Byrdman is a lightweight when it comes to beer, Patrick, and Charlie gave up his license long ago. Sally has him on a strict Hops free diet. So it's just you and me and my nephew. You're on. Guaranteed an Anderson is gonna come out the winner though. Don P.S. Yah, what's with your profile...

    Uh Oh III

    What I actually said: I have to disagree back, Pat. Nowhere did I label all readers of Dent's book, however I did label his target market. Writers write to sell books after all. Intelligent readers always look at both sides but I really don't think they're in the majority in any...

    Uh Oh III

    There will always be gloom and doom proponents like Harry Dent. He sells books and his target audience are those who believe the worse. A growing audience, unfortunately. On the other hand, there are those who believe the economy is struggling and will continue to struggle as the average US...

    San Diego CG vessel collides with Sea Ray, killing 1

    Another unfortunate update to a sad story: The San Diego Log has this lead story in their latest issue. Please note: The NTSB has still not determined the actual cause so assumptions and speculation is not appropriate at this time. Don
