No, it's not about the weather... It's about the beer our beer-maker members, Pat Anderson and David Mc make. Snoqualmie Falls Beer... Tonight, Jon and I are at Bella Italia Restaurant in Port Angeles. He orders a beer from on tap... He got a glass of "Spring Fever", Snoqualmie Falls new...

It's been 5 days now and Ray Marine tech support hasn't got back to me yet, so it's time for the ace in the hole, The C-BRAT site. Geez, what the heck do I need the Factory Tech support for when all you smart guys and gals are right here. Problem: I have a new Ray Marine DS500 sounder...

What's your favorite brand of lube for lubing your outboard lower end unit? Currently I'm using Mercury high performance lube, but I would like to know if there's better. Thanks, Jon

FYI... On Feb. 9, 10, & 11, the Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue will have a fly fishing show. The website is flyfishingshow.com. I know our one and only C-Brat Robbi on Sea Run is an avid flyfisher.

There's a 1999 22' C-Dory for sale in our local paper (Port Angeles). It reads like this: 99' 22' Cruiser. 2001 80 H.P. Yamaha 4 stroke (200 hrs), well equipped, EZ loader trailer. $30,000 379-4977 That sounds like a pretty good deal if the add is correct. Who knows, they might even...

We are up and crawling again. Yep, no high speed internet out here, just dial up. I logged on tonight and had 1625 posts since my last visit, that was maybe maybe 3 weeks ago. Holy smokes! Got some catching up to do and sure glad to be back. Jon

I finally found a use for Bill's Kubota tractor...

It's time to install a bow hatch. I think we're the only boat in the fleet without one. Any recommendations on what make and model bow hatch to purchase?

In the last 6 months or so, I've had this desire for a cat, yes a cat. I have no doubt that the new 25' cat will be a huge success, but what if a 22' was designed the C-Dory way. I can picture that in my mind and I think that would be the perfect boat for us. Hey, if Livingston can make a...

I was looking thru my C-Dory photo album and was able to see my old C-Dory S/N numbers on a photo. I sold this boat (1981 - 22') to some guy in the seattle area in 1991. If the new owner happens to find this website/thread, I would sure like to know how she is doing and would love to share a...

If your tired of spending to much time trying to get the right edge on your filleting knifes, give this Aladdin a try. I bought it at Englunds Marine for under $5 bucks and it works great. They say 4 or 5 swipes through it and you'll have a very sharp knife. I tried it with the crappiest...

FYI-After inspecting the bottom of C-Lou, I noticed that the poly slick bunks left some pretty nice scratches on the bottom of the boat. I installed some carpet to the front and back of the bunks hoping to reduce the weight of the plastic slides. They work great, but they're a little rough on...

We have a Honda 90 (year 2002) and I've been having a little problem with starting it in the mornings. This problem happened when it was only about 6 months old and then it went away. Now, the last 3 weekends, it's going thru the same thing. Here's what it's doing... Initial startup in the...

I think we all know about B.O.A.T., bring on another thousand items, so I thought this would be a good topic for the cheap things that work really cool.

Just curious if any of our C-Dory group has lived or spent time in Port Angeles, Wa. or Palmdale Ca. I've lived in P.A. for 16 years and Palmdale for 27 years. Now, I know Dusty was born in Port Angeles, Wa. and lived on the same road as us. How bazaar is that! Albert Street, right Dusty...

I'm trying to convince myself that a bow hatch is necessary, but I'm having a hard time deciding. Our 1986 angler never had a hatch installed, so I kinda forgot what I was missing without one. My three concerns are, fragile lid, leakage, and exposing electronics, wiring and connections with...

Does anyone use any other type of engine oil for their Hondas other than Honda Marine oil? I spoke to a tech guy today at our Port Angeles Honda shop and he was telling me to make sure that whatever oil you use, it should say something about SL standards on the product. This fellow also...

Anyone know of a good boat insurance company in Washington with decent premiums? I currently have Safeco insurance and I'm thinking about giving them the boot. Jon

For those who would like to take a boating safety education course but can't find the time, I found a real easy way on the internet: https://www.boat-ed.com/wa You can take the practice test as many times as you like and when you're ready to take the real thing you're charged $15 bucks. If...
