Remember the Scotty's don't use electricity to drop so this saves on batteries.

Are you sure the compass is providing the correct information? As I understand the problem, if you turn the compass off, the chart's orientation adjusts to a correct position? If so, then I don't see how the compass is correct. I had a similar problem. If I turned the compass off while...

Here's some pictures from my boat (which I don't have anymore). I had the honda 8 classic mounted on the starboard side. Never had a problem with the trim tabs.

Can they handle rough water? Puuleeaase. In all seriousness, don't try this at home. I get nervous everytime I look at this picture. Anyway, C-dories are like ducks, they sit on top of the water very well. The can handle the slop with the best of them. You might need to slow down at times...

I found these pictures of vintage boats entertaining. Thought I'd share it. Click through the pages on the left side to see them all. There seemed to be a big "car" influence in their design. http://www.fiberglassics.com/galleries/bitb/

Keep in mind the terrain that you will be towing on when choosing a tow vehicle. What might work fine for someone in a flat state (no offense) might not be such a good tow vehicle if you live where there's mountains and hills. For me the Ford Explorer Sport trac (the 2007 and later models not...

Wow Randy, sorry to here that you won't be able to keep her. If anyone want's to see more photo's of the boat just click on my photo album.

CW, sorry your leaving but most your points are fishing related. There's a Northwest fishing/hunting/general boating/ forum called www.ifish.net that would be perfect for your needs. Definately check it out. :beer

Not sure if this makes any difference or not but they only get 9 gallons of diesel out of a barrel of oil compared to 19 gallons of gasoline. http://www.eia.doe.gov/kids/energyfacts ... ml#Howused

I guess I don't understand what you mean about the Arima's transome being unfriendly regarding a fishing?

Steve, You might consider adding a washdown that's tied into the fresh water tank. That's what I did. It's pretty easy to "T" into the line under the sink. I mounted the pump under there as well and then came out the hole in the bulkhead that's under the starboard gunnel. Of course you dont'...

Well C-brats, I thought I'd post a public announcement that I have indeed sold my beloved boat "Playin' Hooky". I really enjoyed the boat and experiences I had with her but my priorities have changed and feel that for now this is for the best. This change, along with a few others will allow my...

Hands down the c-dory is a more comfortable boat to "live on". The Arima's are great boats and very seaworthy but are just a little more of a fishing boat. Also, the head room in the Arima with the HT is much less than in the c-dory. I'm not sure what the inside height is of the Arima but I do...

Yes, the chip is worth it. Also, you will get a free chip in the mail they call thier "fish n chip" which has very detailed bottom contour data. You might look into buying the chip from www.landfallnavigation.com I believe they sell it for about $179.00 can't help with your other questions.
