Don't you hate it that the boat builder would penetrate the core, but not seal it properly ! Such a shame.

With the boat in the water, is the tank vent fitting higher than the fill tube fitting. Many a boat manufacturer, has had fuel tanks built with those fittings more convenient to routing, or where they want the fuel spout fitting. I have seen many Bayliners that had the tank fittings at the rear...

Chromer must mean the island that has diesel, off to the left of the gas pumps. Question 2, in front of Holiday Sports.

This is unusual. There are some series of aluminum that are not salt water compatible, but you say this is a garelick bracket. Something is causing the corrossion you are experiencing. Please post some pics showing the mounting of bracket and the mounting of the kicker to it. And any other...

The back-up for the current work on the Gibralter Rd roundabout has been all the way down the hill to Sharps Corner, and at times heading east on the main highway. So the backroad is definitely better, and has nice views to enjoy.

Some people are turning at the golf coarse, re-entering at the shrimp shack or dewey beach. Based on the back ups I see driving by, I would make the turn.

If Cap Sante Marina does not accommodate you, call North Harbor Diesel ( 360 299-1907 ) speak to Robin. Storage for your truck and trailer $ 150 month, inside a locked gated ( at night ) yacht storage lot at 30th and R Ave. Call Mike's cab for a ride from marina ( 12th ) to 30th, probably $ 5...

Does this make you a second Rosborough owner ? I'm sure you will enjoy the labor of love bringing the "old" girl back to the present.

I installed the same brand in my present boat, but it was the 50 or 60 amp model. It has two presets for the flooded setting, I found that the resting float voltage ran a fair amount higher than the specification ( my memory was about 15.1 volts). I used the "custom" setting ability to adjust...

Is there any way to get the charger and batteries closer together ? Thataway is correct, don't compromise on the wire size. Those big cables get very pricey per each foot.

Magic Fix for the DIY ! Presto and it all looks perfect . Go right at it, I would like to see the DIY finished job. Good Luck

Polyester gelcoat does NOT adhere to epoxy. Repairing a cosmetic issue with an epoxy ? Now you have trouble making the cosmetic finish coat to blend into the surrounding area. Boats ending up with spots of epoxy that can not be finished properly, because people are confused with the hole filling...

I owned a RF246. Nice boat. It is a thru the water boat. C-dory, on top of the water boat. They don't make a 50 footer, I choose my house.

PaulnBrianna- You have indicated gelcoat does not adhere to marine tex ( a epoxy base ). What is different about filling with thickened epoxy and cloth? It is a epoxy base. Much is talked about using thickened epoxy. Gelcoat is a different base, it does not stick to epoxy. There is a...

Good News There ! The brand is getting a GOOD showing, and the dealer is making new boat sales. Makes the C-brat community happy

That Honda was seriously overpropped, from a 15 pitch to a 11 pitch would account for about 800 rpm difference. Overpropping an outboard is like hooking a loaded trailer behind your tow vehicle then driving over the mountain pass, without allowing the transmission to down shift. Lugging the...

I was watching those westerly swells come down Guemes Channel today. I'm surprised you bucked those swells out of the west, they were pretty large ! What island is your cabin on ? Be safe,

Nice hull and deck space. Though the interior needs some updating. I thought about it after looking, but decided I was not up to the interior project at this time. Secondly, a refitted C-dory does not have the resale that a SeaSport has in the PNW. But it is a nice hull ! Hope it stay's around...

All boats are compromises to your present use. Life changes, then the present use use changes, then the boat changes. One thing is for sure. Smaller is easier to handle and clean. C-dory's are easy to handle and clean up. KISS plan.

Thataway - Yes, they needed to keep going lower in pitch until they achieved recommended WOT rpm's. Then read the test results on WOT speed and mpg. Though most experienced boaters already know that given the same hull, the motor able to pull the largest pitch prop is going to have the highest...
