Anybody in the NW need a trailer for a 24 Tomcat? We have a customer upgrading his trailer and we have his old one available. Contact me for details.

Researching something for a customer I ran into this web site: http://www.nmiboats.com/?utm_source=tri ... =migration Looks like the parent company name is changing again. Just sharing a discovery.

I am always amazed at what boats look like post storm, and even wonder about what it would take to get some of them back into running condition. Because obviously somebody buys the salvage vessels. I wonder how many of them ever see the water again? One of my guilty pleasures is to peruse the...

Any Brats in this area that might be willing to do me a favor? I may need somone to put eyes on a boat in that area (not a C-Dory).

Guys- my brain is slipping after the boat show, and I connot remember the name of the canvas shop in Seattle that was doing the C-Dory enclosures and such when production was in Auburn. I've had two phone calls in the last few days about this, and I can't recall the company's name. Help?

I received a phone call today from a gentleman who is helping an older couple clean up their yard and get some life issues handled. One of the things in their yard is this boat. I have not seen the boat, so don't know it's condition. The gentleman on the phone expressed that it was dirty, and...

So- if 9.9 is good, 15 must be better, right? Since up until recently most 9.9's and 15's were built on the same powerhead there was no weight penalty for going bigger. And if Smiling Bob is to be beleived, bigger is always better. Well, maybe. First we have to understand "hull speed". Hull...

I was just looking over some statistical data for the month of September. I thought some of you might find these numbers interesting. All these numbers are for Year-To-Date through September in Washington State, and I have presented them 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011. (percentage 2011 vs. 2008) All...

Good morning- We have fielded a few calls in the last few days asking if we were going out of business, all generated by recent events with our association with C-Dory. So I wanted to post that we are alive and well, with the same ownership since 1985 (and the same ownership as Kitsap Bait at...

We were talking the other day, and have realized that we have sold no new C-Dory's this year, not counting any left over that might have been in stock. In fact, the number of people looking at C-Dory's has been way below average, with an increase only in the last few weeks. The factory would...

What size props are on the 25 Cruisers powered by the Honda 135? We've sold the one we have in stock, but we want to play with prop sizing a bit. I think information on 15o Honda's might be helpful as a starting point as well. Thanks for the help!

Dropped our 25 C-Dory that we have an offer pending on in the water, and had no power at the dash. "Darn" I thought- "Dead batteries". Wrong- wing nuts. So here's the reminder for everyone. Do not use wing nuts on batteries. Use regular nuts with lock washers. In fact, the use of wing nuts...

We have just been informed that there will be very limited numbers of Yamaha outboards available this year. While the small motors seem to have a fair level of stock, the larger (70 hp and up) will be very hard to find if a dealer does not already have it in stock. If your plans this year...

We just serviced a motor on an unusual C-Dory. A 1991, and if I'm reading the HIN correctly, it is hull number 15 or a 20 ft series. A nice boat with a modified V hull, short cabin (Angler sized) and in deck storage and the deck sits above the hull. I have some pictures, but hae to figure out...

Well, I was asked by a customer if we were on Facebook, and why not? So we're now on there. I'm still working out the ins and outs of using Facebook for the business side, so we'll see how this goes.

This started as a response in the Seattle Boat Show/C-Brat Gathering thread, but I decided it needed to be outside that thread, but was information that many of you would find interesting- Matt Well, now that the new year is here, we can talk with a bit more certainty of what will be at the...

The corn industry is pushing for E15, Gasoline blended with up to 15% ethonal. Based on the expensive repairs we are seeing with E10 gasoline, this could be very detrimental to the marine industry. Here's a link to help oppose E15 gasoline: http://www.followthescience.org/

Hey guys- Because I know this stuff interests you, I wanted to let you know we have turned on our new web site. Not all of it is fully finished, but there are some exciting things that you may want to check out. www.kitsapmarina.com Parts Finder: There are parts finders for Evinrude...

We're rigging a 22 Cruiser with new twin 60 E-Tecs. Now, stupid me, we had a 22 Cruiser with twin 50's on it, and I didin't look at that boat's props to see what size they were running. So what are you guys with twins running on the 22's? Thanks!
