    Trip to the East Coast (dates changing)

    Hi Stefan, Ah! I got it now, thanks for the explanation. Nothing has been happening on the tan boat for the last few weeks so I haven't had more photos to post yet. I've been waiting because there's a chance that it's a sold hull and I want the buyer to be able to make choices before the...

    Honda fuel connector

    Hi Clint, I think if the change had been a fairly recent thing there'd be some hope but it's been quite a few years now. I know all of our "old style" connectors have long since been gone. There's probably one of more sitting on a shelf at some dealership somewhere but I can't tell you how to...

    Honda fuel connector

    Sorry this is so late. Maybe you've solved the problem already but this might be helpful to others. The reason you can't get the connector you want is because it was discontinued many years ago and your dealer (any dealer) can't get them. All I can tell you is that one day Honda announced (to...

    Trip to the East Coast (dates changing)

    Hi Stefan, Any M215 or a specific one? All the photos I have I've either posted on our website (in my sig) or on our Facebook page. I can take more if there's something in particular you'd like. Les

    Trip to the East Coast (dates changing)

    Oh, and I'll be sure to be careful when I get a bit east of Missoula! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    Trip to the East Coast (dates changing)

    Hi Brent, I'll do that if it works out. I haven't set my final route yet but dropping down to Indy adds 100 miles but would get me off the northern toll roads and away from Chicago (never a bad thing). If I was on schedule it looks like I'd be in the Indy area on Wed (Apr 18th) around...

    Trip to the East Coast (dates changing)

    Hi Merv, I tend to do about 1,000/day when I'm "on the road" and not doing a pleasure trip. I don't really push it, if I get tired I just stop and take a nap and then stop for awhile at night. But if you're on the road by yourself you might as well drive, I'd rather do that then spend the...

    2007 C-Dory TomCat "Stray Cat" for sale at EQ

    Hi all, this isn't going to be my normal post to refer you to our website to see this boat. I will put this boat up on our website but without all the information I'll post here. We sold this boat new and the middle aged couple (read...a bit younger than me!) that purchased it wanted it rigged...

    Trip to the East Coast (dates changing)

    Hi all, Due to a change in the completion date of the Rosborough RF-246 I'm picking up in Halifax the dates for my trip have changed. I didn't want any of y'all wondering where I had disappeared to, or heavens forbid...to worry. I'll be leaving on April 15th and will arrive in CT on the 19th...

    March 17th update

    Hi Bob, Thank you for the reply. This is something I've thought about a lot and while no solution is going to be perfect in every situation it's worth pursuing. I think the best bet is probably a transom step through and the small lift I'm working on in combination with each other. Even with...

    March 17th update

    Hi Bob, It should work fine on a CD22. I've got about 4 of them sitting out back so I can measure it up and see how it will work out. Then I just need to finalize the pieces and parts that will be required and talk to the welder guy. I'll let you know how it goes. Since I'm going to leave...

    March 17th update

    Hi Doug, It's certainly possible. We build our boats with very few parts (9 total in the M215 and three of them are small). The upside is ease of assembly for us, and rigidity and no leaks for the owner. The down side (to some extent) is that in order to do a new model (with a short house)...

    March 17th update

    Hi Harvey, I certainly know that some folks prefer a twin engine setup but unfortunately I just can't get it all in one boat (at 8' 6" wide). I pretty much had to choose one or the other (transom step-though or twins). In a perfect world I'd be able to offer the boat both ways and maybe it...

    March 17th update

    Hi Bill, It would be my hope that a separate ladder wouldn't be necessary at all. You should be able to deploy the swim step ladder and have it reach to within a foot of the ground so that you can just use that to reach the swim platform then step through the transom into the cockpit. That...

    March 17th update

    Hi Dave, and thanks for the comment. It gives me an opportunity to explain the setup a bit more. Having a person step from the dock to the swim platform then into the boat through the transom opening may or may not work. I say that because I think in a lot of circumstances the swim step...

    March 17th update

    Thanks for the help on the photos. I feel really dumb since I usually don't have issues with this type of computer stuff but I haven't tried hosting photos on sites other than my own before (sounds like a good excuse!). I might as well just call the truck a boat...it's 22' long! :)

    March 17th update

    No sir. I now have a 2000 Ford F350 Crew Cab Dually 4x4 V10 to tow with. I found it about a month ago with 56,000 miles on the odometer and it's pretty much in new condition. I tried (and failed) to include photos. :( Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong on the images? If you...

    March 17th update

    Greetings, Thought I'd pop in and give anyone interested an update on the Marinaut scene. We've got one boat building in the shop right now. I've been posting infrequent photos on Facebook since we've been loafing along (lots of other things happening as well). It's looking really nice...

    Marinaut Boats on the road

    I've had a few busy days since I posted (why does it always work that way?) so I apologize for not getting back to you all sooner. Thank you for all the great ideas! I really appreciate them. Here are my thoughts: the get togethers were always on my mind but more for me to visit with friends...
