    Shorepower issues on AICW Loop Segment

    Bob, Thanks so much for your comments! Converted the Fingpinguins to Public; hope that helps. We spent many hours on this boat cramped up with Frank in 96 degree heat (but only 95% humidity) in conversation regarding current and past electrical wiring regulations…. and I agree with you that...

    Shorepower issues on AICW Loop Segment

    Shorepower issues on AICW Loop Segment We trailered 700 miles to launch the boat at a new Loop segment start point on the Waccamaw River in South Carolina. We docked and connected shore power with all green LEDs lit but had no voltage despite trying two Smartcords, two 50A adapters and four...

    Hardware replacement for drawers and cabinets

    Hi Richard, Most OEM is Sea Dog. Ours are ‘roller’ latches like this one, except in SS. https://stock4less.com/products/sea-dog ... oQQAvD_BwE You can adjust the force needed to open the finger pull hole in the cabinet door by repositioning the roller latch a bit lower (no new holes to...

    V-berth dimensions

    Hi Clay, The TomCats have the largest berth in class (including all competing builders) due to the rectangle shape of the sponson bridgedeck rather than a V shape. We use a Queen size foam topper and have a foot or so extra on three sides for storage. ( If you need exact dimensions PM me after...

    SO WHAT DID YOU DO WITH OR ON YOUR C-DORY TODAY??

    Our 2010 boat has lived in the Southern sun since new and has a LOT of oxidation damage. The entire eyebrow had gelcoat crazing (not stress cracks like a spider web, but like a 10,000 piece jigsaw puzzle) and chalky rough gelcoat. My Shurbold buffer didn’t help at all. I was thinking it was...

    Molly’s Great American Loop

    Hi James and Betty, Congrats! You’ve got lots of time to plan. We’ve liked best of 4,300 miles so far, the Triangle Loop into Canada, the Trent-Severn, and the West Erie Canal. The only way to do both the Triangle Loop and T-S without backtracking or crossing Lake Ontario twice and the East...

    Forwardscan transducer

    Ken, We looked into it, absolutely did not pass the cost test for us, with a draft of 24 " and a typical tide of the same 24". We heard the Garmin tech rep for the SE say at a SE FL meet that 'it won't do what you are looking for in under 15 feet of water' to laughter. When you run aground...

    03/05 - 03/07 - Hontoon Island Gathering St. John’s River

    Hi Colby, Another great Gathering at the Hontoon Hoot! Tom and Joyce took Lake Effect on a post meet 10 day cruise downriver…likely out of cell coverage, but I think he said 15 boats attended, despite having to anchor out or marina every night since the Ranger residence has not yet been...
