    LaBelle, FL, a real sleeper for cruisers

    We had been looking for a good launch site to launch, store the Jeep/trailer, and cruise the GICW. I read a post where someone mentioned leaving their truck/trailer in LaBelle with no problem. We just returned from doing that trip and also had no problem leaving the tow vehicle/trailer at the...

    Your cruising speed?

    My 22CD has 2 good cruising speeds: 6.5 knots at 2250 rpm and @ 11 knots at 3800 rpm. We cruised at the higher speed from Daytona, FL to DC and return (and many shorter cruises). Recently we cruised at the lower speed from LaBelle, FL to Tarpon Springs and return. Naturally, the higher speed got...

    AC, Generator, Refrigation installation

    After all the help and advice concerning a generator, refrig and AC install, I thought I would post my final outcome. Mission creep seems to define what has occurred. I had a never used W-M 5000BTU AC and had spent an unbearable hot night anchored out on Fla's ST Johns River. If you have an AC...

    Honda 2000 extended fuel system

    I'm excited; my new Honda 2000 is due for delivery by FedEx tomorrow. I had thought the holiday weekend would cause it to arrive mid week next week. I have a 3 gal Atwood tank on order from WM (my old steel 5 gal tank that I had planned to use had rusted badly while just sitting around unused...

    Dometic chest type freezer/refeig

    Now that the Honda 2000 is on order & en route, and the 5000BTU AC installation is well underway, I have another convenience item in mind for C-Way. I have measured the area in the bow between the bunks. We use the cushion to make up a queen size bed. The area beneath would be a perfect spot for...

    AC and Gen for 22'?

    Just cruised St Johns in FL and had upper 90's with heat index of 105 degrees. It was bad enough during the day, but at least we were moving and had some air movement from boat speed and a 12v fan we can move around in the cabin. It was dead calm at anchor and temp remained in upper 80's well...

    Ocklawaha River Update

    Recently I answered a question of Will-C concerning a run up the Ocklawaha River from the St Johns river to the dam. I had never actually noted the distance, so I made a guess. (bad guess) Yesterday I wanted to test a couple of updates I had made to the C-Dory and practice launching/retrieving...

    Oil changes on long cruises.

    Our engine is a F80 Yamaha. Recommended oil change is every year or 100hr, filter change every other oil change. On our cruise from Daytona FL to upper Potomac beyond DC, then return, we had reached 100 hr just as we headed back home and docked for a couple days outside DC. Draining oil was very...

    Security Threat

    For the past several days I have been getting a security alert from Avast , my antivirus program, every time I log onto C-Brats. I'm not sure what might be getting through and into my computer, so this has me worried. Has anyone else noted this?

    Fuel tank venting results.

    Earlier posts discussed various fuel tank vent problems and solutions. I posted that I had run my tank vent line from one tank to the other, placed a "T" in that line at it's highest point, and run a single vent from that point to a thru hull fitting mounted high as possible and exiting into the...

    Monday we departed Daytona for a short 2 day cruise down the ICW to the south tip of Merritt Island, then back north up the Banana River, with a return through the Canaveral barge canal to the ICW north back to Daytona. The forecast called for a passing cold front with 20-40 percent chance of...

    Fuel tank venting though/question

    My 1998 CD 22' has 2 fuel tanks, each with it's own fill and vent connections. Neither tank is transparent. Like has been discussed by several others recently, both of my vents have a tendency to spit fuel overboard just as the tank fills. I have noted fuel spitting out a vent as I drive away...

    I finally learned to post pictures and group them into individual albums. My ICW album shows a few of the photos taken Between Daytona Beach and Washington DC. This was a 2100 mi round trip.

    Boat name vendors

    I just returned from a 2100 mi ICW and river trip. I did not yet have our boat name (C Way) on the CD and felt dad about that. BoatUS has a website that lets one design their boat name and order from them. Color, font, size shipping method, etc are all entered and the total cost is calculated...
