    What does the bare bottom of your boat look like?

    tparrent – Larry is right about the color. The bottom is the same color as the stripe and the front of the visor. Looking at the photo in your album it appears the color is black. If the nicks are just small gelcoat nicks, go ahead and enjoy the boat and fix them this winter. Dave...

    FCC and their relationship to "lightsourced"

    I would question the accuracy of the reporting of The Daily Beast. I am not questioning the story because Fox reported it as well as other sources. I doubt The Daily Beast broke this story. Look at the date stamp of the story “Sep 15, 2011 12:24 AM EDT” then look at the following quote in the...

    Decragard or substitute?

    Brian – I have Decragard here in Olympia. It is ¾ inch 4 x 8 foot sheets. If you want some, send me an email and I will get back to you. We use it in the Marinaut so will generally have some in stock. Dave www.marinautboats.com

    09/09 - 09/11 - Sequim Bay Gathering

    Before Roger Bumgarner catches my mistake, I want to correct it in my last post. I used 20 gallons for the trip to Sequim instead of the 14 gallons I indicated. The 14 was what I had left in one tank. Robbi – it was around 12:30. I passed under the bridge between the west support columns and...

    Coming to Seattle

    Tivo – I avoid Seattle like the plague but would be happy to buy you a lunch or a couple of drinks if you make it as far south as Olympia when you are in the NW. Dave www.marinautboats.com

    inexpensive IR thermometer $16

    I am tempted to get another one. At this price it is hard to resist. I just bought a second one 10 days ago but I can always use a third one somewhere. Dave www.marinautboats.com

    Freddie - many of us are at the dock now. Just show up anytime, the earlier the better. Guinness sounds good, you can bring a little dish for the pot luck. It will be at John Wayne Marina at 5pm. There are many different C-Dorys here for you to look at. Most of us here would be happy to take you...

    09/09 - 09/11 - Sequim Bay Gathering

    I will be there but don’t know when or how. Looking at the weather, it looks like it may not be too bad that week end. If that is the case, I will be going there from Olympia by boat. I will leave mid morning Friday and arrive late afternoon. If the water conditions are bad, I will tow my boat...

    I need some input please...

    Michael – your thought about filling the space between the floor pan and the hull can be done but I do not think it would be a good idea. There are many threads and post on this site about the C-Dory and Cape Cruiser/Venture Series boats that did just that. While it may help with condensation...

    Looking for advice on towing a dock

    Now we have to get a 35 foot ramp on a 25 foot trailer. As I said in the beginning of this, we had someone above helping because had we not had the problem towing with my boat we would have been here when boaters were using the ramp. If we were lucky enough to have docked between other boaters...
