with kicker before removal/ note bracket splashed deck

I am definitely not knocking having a second motor, I thought it was called a kicker. Any ways, my boat leaned and the mount splashed the entire deck at 10 knots, so I removed it and now the boat (after water removal- a whole other nightmare) and its removal, the boat gets right up on plain and...

I am new also, I have purchased (and sold ) many items. One thing I can tell you is to be careful, If you purchase a boat based on a "sea trial, inspection" by someone else. C dorys are a very desirable boat and hard to find "the one". A lot of times they are out of state (like mine). I am...

Very rarely do we see the large bait balls, Santa Cruz last time... plenty. I only was going to get it for full ease and I will mount it to clips on my full deck cover above me. Mostly thinking I will get mackerel and a small mack works sometimes. The trim tabs... I need some more experience...

Thank you. All good points. I like the bait bag over the transom idea the best as I did not consider the lean. That is very true about the high bow, On any distance run , I will load up the front. Lots to consider. My initial solution is to purchase a sabiki pole and buy a cooler with an aerator...

Hello I hope to get some pictures finally up on the site but need my daughters assistance as technology has passed me by. I like the bait bag hanging off the gunnel , it seems to make good sense for the room . The next step would be plumbing it for the intake of the water . Just curious is...

Hi all, I am looking into a live bait bag for my 19 foot angler and with limited deck space, wanting either a transom mount or a gunnel mount. I prefer a gunnel mount. Has anyone purchased a "kit" that would include the pump and "everything" needed? I want it for live bait (sardines) and...

I filled the void back without any holes or storage. Thanks all Richard

Upon inspection It looks like the port side is full (at least to the top at the cap (foam entrance). The starboard side is missing 80%. Looks like they started (pointing toward the helm) and ran out shortly. My intension is to add a cylinder type storage and foam replacement in the void, of...

thanx Colby will do

I did seal it off, just because it was the culprit of a long discouraging ordeal, and the fact they it would never drain anyhow unless the water was 1 inch high. (and it never will be) and if it does actually get water i will check and paper towel it out at ranch use. I don't want to abuse...

Hi, So guess what? it was the anchor drain after all. I went through a long process and after the deck was completely dry, poured red died water into the anchor cab... it went right into the hull (bilge), then pulled the cover and funneled in blue died water into the anchor cab exit (outside...

Thank you Harvey. I call it the angler but yes the 19 only comes in that model as there is no "cruiser" and it is a 2006 with a canvas bulkhead (correct term?) Richard as I learn more I will use pics, I was able to post one once but it was sideways and huge. "technology has passed me by." My...

Hi, sorry but this is lengthy to explain better. When I got my 19 ft. angler (a few months ago) I noticed water in the hull and it was all moldy and quite ugly. I bailed it out, sprayed the inside with a mix of water/bleach, washed it out, wiped it down and did it a few more times. The owner...

Yes , I am looking at gps speed (i phone app) as far as plaque, I am referring to the metal square mounted to my dashboard stating rpm and mph and gpm. I would love to see a bunch of c Dorys and meet some folks so I will keep checking in on the site for news about it. I agree , wow a 25 from...

Thanks men. so I have not really done much with the trim taps, I did not really consider them as the boat gets right on plane and performs well in light chop and of course flat. I thought they were for leveling. I will mess around with them. Do you suppose with a 13 pitch, The boat will not...

Hi. My boat was purchased from Idaho (fresh water) and I am in Huntington Beach California. I have read through the many threads regarding props and pitch and rpm and wot. I must admit I am very new to all this. I have a 2006 yamaha 4 stroke, 75. at wot, my boat will go 29 mph and I feel it...

Hi Bob, Your sentence got cut off. Be sure to ... I actually have them mounted as low as I could and still leave about 1.5 inchs of clearance for the battery access doors. Richard
