I bought the dash switch and a foot switch from Ebay. Same guy has a relay the might be what you are looking for. He offered it to me for $25.00 but I have already spent more than the boss has given me permission to spend for a while. Last week it did not sell but he has it listed for $35...

Hello, I believe the first thing you should have for a boat purchase is a good inspection of the boat. Try to look at the attachments and see if the is any water penetration and core wetness. After that you need to see what really makes you feel comfortable while on the water.

Hello, I ordered some premade wire for my windlass install and I wanted tell everyone that what I received was just great. I ordered and recevied four days later. I think this very reasonable at about half of what it would cost for the material alone at West Marine. Please let me know if...

Hello All, We purchased our Cdory from Mark and Diana Dolye a few months back and I will never forget how nice and friendly they were. They showed the same open freindly attitude that most Brats do and I will always have kind thought for them and look forward to seeing them again one day...

Thanks for your reply Charlie, I have already drilled a hole so I am commited to the location. I have also change my plans and have ordered a cheap contactor, $23.00 and will be looking for a different swith as well.

Hi Guys, The switch that came with the V700 is the basic switch and I intend to use it for a while before I upgrade to a contacter. The problem I have is the thickness of the dash where I drilled a small round hole to mount the switch is about a half inch thick. That is all the threads that...

I asked a lot of questions and I got excellent responses. I now have no fear of putting holes in my boat. I just wish someone had told me to drill right though the template and not to take it off. I was trying to save a plug to fill the hole where the old hawse pipe was needed to draw the...

Thanks Bob, If it isn't raining when I get up I will see how much I can get done tomorrow. All good answers, or rather, opinions as ussual

I had the courage to buy a V700 but I am having to build up courage to cut a hole in the deck.So while I build up the courage I have some questions. 1. How far back from the bow roller is required to allow the windlass to work at its best? I have a davit back about 15" from the end of the bow...

[A good fabrication shop can make you one that is better in my opinion. I built one for really cheap. And it is really nice. I am going to refab it this year out of 304 stainless when the season turns. I will try to post a picture.....] If you have a choice use a 316L grade stainless. There...

Aurelia, Did you mean the inverter was an old model or the microwave was an old model. Your probably right about the startup requirements.

Could someone tell me if they believe a zantrex 1000 charger/inverter would run a small microwave? PS Guest representitive told me that my 2610A was to far out of warrantee to offer me any assitance.

Hello, I'm a newbie too. I wanted a Cdory for maybe 2 years before I got mine. These boat are more than just boats. They are more like a commitment to a life style. The first thing you have to change is the hurry up and get there attitude. Since the old fishing scene for me was up early...

Thanks Jim. I give it a try. Glad they helped you. John

Thanks Jim, I read your previous post yesterday. I think mine is atleast a year out of date and I did not buy mine new. I think the warrantee would be gone.

Thanks for the replies. I will be using shore power often and tying up at marinas so I will atleast step up to a 20 amp charger. Thanks

I could use some advice. I have not used my boat but a couple of times and have only spent overnight twice but I plan on spending a lot more nights on the water. I currently only have two batteries and I Have a guest 2610A that just died. Money is important to me so I have been looking a lot...

Thanks for the reply Ron. Must be a similar situation. I thought it was corroded terminals. I cleaned around everything, all terminals and lugs before I started checking voltages. Like always I do things backwards. I finally tried to see if I could see inside the breaker but they were not...

Thanks Bob. I will not just jump around the breaker. Hope I can find one of these fast!

Both batteries have 12.5 volts at the terminals. One side of this breaker shows 4 volts. In the berth I also show 4 volts across the main bus bars. I jumpers around this for just a few seconds and everthing works.
