Thank you all for the depth and breadth of the cooler rack options. I am thinking that I will fish with the C-Dory a time or two, and get a better feel for work will work for us. All the best, Gratitude (Jim)

I was thinking off the floor like the one shown in the Boatest video. I do not know how to insert a picture here. This is the link [/url]http://www.boattest.com/images-gallery/photos/C-dory-22-stern1.jpg. Like many, I have an array of Igloo Ice Crest sizes, so I could go big or smaller. My...

Any suggestions for where I can get a rack to hold an Igloo Ice Chest above the floor, and directly in front of the engine - above the splash well? My Cruiser is a '92. I am running a 90 hp E-Tech, and a 5 hp kicker - if that makes any difference. Also, what size Igloo would fit in the...

Update USAA provided 100% financing over 10 years on 1992 Cruiser, C-Pelican, at 4.49% based upon a strong Marine Survey, and FICO. Pretty amazing. If you are a Veteran, or a family member of a Veteran, it is work checking out: https://www.usaa.com/inet/pages/why_cho ... l_usaaandu All the...

First I want to thank Dr. Bob, for all his help and patience with my questions both on and off this amazing site. What a treasure! Second I want to thank the group for answering my questions. Third, I want to thank the members who graciously provided demo rides. Mike on SeaLife, and lastly...

OK I am clear the the Home Equity Loan is deductible. I am not clear if the boat loan is deductible. Yes or no if the loan is less than $50k?

Just to be clear, are both the Home Equity Loan or a boat loan tax deductible? I know that we get a statement each year for the interest paid on our Home Equity Loan. Would we get the same interest statement from a boat loan, and is the interest on that loan also tax deductible as a second home.

This thread is very timely for us. We anticipate the acquisition of a C-Dory Cruiser this season, and are considering what would be to best setup if we start with a plank canvas. My primary use will be fishing in the S. CA Channel Islands. At a recent West Marine Grand Opening, I spent...

I use a small rectangular Weber Propane grill while bird hunting and it works well for burgers and steaks as well. The Weber brand can be pricy. However, knock offs are available for far less. Gratitude

How about one of these for $70.00 delivered? Has anyone used this one? http://www.allbbqs.com/contact.htm All the best, Gratitude (Jim)

Since I do not yet own a C-Dory Cruiser, these could be interesting saddle tanks. These are NOT my tanks, I am posting for the betterment of the group. Shipping should be reasonable since they are plastic. http://ventura.craigslist.org/boa/4009352143.html All the Best, Gratitude

Bob, I would be departing from either Channel Islands Harbor, Los Alamitos Bay, or Catalina. All the best, Jim

My intention is to not hijack this thread. I am seriously considering the purchase of a 22' Cruiser to utilize in these same offshore islands, and overnighting on the hook. For those going over and back to Santa Barbara Island I am particularly interested in whether you have a single or twin...

I am the individual that Mike on SeaLife took for the demo ride, and am seriously considering buying a 22 C-Dory Cruiser for these exact types of activities. My primary planned uses are fishing and overnighting in these same waters. I have been boating in my 17' Boston Whaler Montauk in these...

Thank you one and all for the breadth of your recommendations. We will consider all suggestions. All the best, Gratitude (Jim)

I am getting serious about getting a 22' C-Dory, and am curious about various sources of boat loans. I go back and forth between older, and newer models. However, the sources that I have discovered seem to finance no longer than about 12 years old. Thanks. Gratitude (Jim)

After viewing a 22' Cruiser, I have refined my search to a 22' Angler or the Original Classic. I prefer a 4 stroke, but would consider other CA Emission Compliant engine/s. My intended usage is fishing the Channel Islands, with an occasional overnight. My original offer still stands. I will...

Harvey, Thank you for the offer to join the gathering. It is not practical for us to travel up north. I see that you may live in the vicinity of Sequim. We have been there twice, and look forward to our next visit. John Wayne Marina is a gem. All the best, Jim

I like to fish in the Channel Islands, and am considering either a 22' Angler or a 22' Cruiser. I would welcome the opportunity to take a ride on one out to one of the islands that is close to your point of origin. I am willing to pay for all fuel, and launch fees for the opportunity to...

Fantastic! This is exactly what I was looking for. Jim
