HI all, A little help please. I replaced a broken sliding window and need to put the latching handle back on. What type of adhesive or sealant do I need to use? Thanks Doug Cruickshank, "Stimpys Dad"

Hi All, Please help with suggestions as to where I may get a replacement port side front sliding side window for a 1982 22 Ft Angler model. Any leads will be appreciated. Thank you for your input. Doug Cruickshank

I am trying to obtain information on the original steering supplied in the 1982 22 ft Angler model. I have searched the site with Google and still have not confirmed what unit is in my hull. There are no external markings that I can find on the visible end of the gearbox housing. Is the unit...

I always disconnect and run it dry,no varnish in carb then always starts first try after bulb pump up. Simple safe easy to do. Regards Doug

Tug, Read the MSDS for what ever bottom paint you are going to apply . Some products will give off vapors that are not good for you to breath in and some will give off potentially explosive vapors into the enclosed area. How are you going to heat it ? Be careful of adding a potential source of...

The events in Japan have made me do some thinking on preparation for unforeseen events that could happen to any of us. Questions such as : What is in the ditch bags that are always in the boat. What else do I need in them? Have you thrown them loaded into the water to see if they will really...

Montana Kevin, I have one on my 22Angler and 100 Hp 4 stroke Yamaha. At $35, run don't walk down there and get it. You will like it!! Regards, Doug Cruickshank

Red Fox, Man is it good to see ya back on the site!!! You and your wealth of information are welcome. I rember many of your posts on the old C-dog site. Many of your ideas with the old "Classic design" have spurred me into really thinking and then doing things with my 1982 Angler. As you...

Dusty may you have a good Birthday and many more Regards Doug Cruickshank

The issue of fuel price is best dealt with by adjusting how I choose to use my boat. On my 22ft Angler I have a 100 HP 4 stroke Yamaha main and a Yamaha 9.9 Thruster. My normal mode of operation is to start both motors at the dock to make sure that they both are operational. Then I back out...

B Burgin, What pitch are you currently running? 13 1/2 x 17 ? I use a 13 1/2 x 15 on my 100 Yamaha and cruise at 4200-4400 just fine. I don't know if that will apply to your 90 HP. Regards, Doug Cruickshank aka Stimpys Dad

Thanks guys, I have been spending b-day splitting fire wood, fidding eyes into ropes for shrimp pots and trying up Halibut rigging. It is too cold outside to work on the boat.... damn Betty made some killer Shrimp and Halibut stir fry. Doug :beer :beer :cocktail :cocktail

Hi all, The latest news here in Alaska on channel 2 evening news is that they got the motors restarted and that two vessles were approximately 4 hrs away and continuing towards the vessel just in case they had more problems. Regards, Doug

Peter , Has your new to you boat been propperly winterized? Is is going to stay dry where it is stored and are the motors down so that any remaining h2o has drained out of the lower unit and pump? Glad that you finally got it here. I wonder how many C-Dorys there are here in Alaska now. You will...

Karl, As you are setting up to run a heater in the cabin I would seriously reccomend that you invest in some life insurance in the form of a CO monitor. Every year unsuspecting people are killed by CO poisioning. CO has no warning properties and can build up in a persons blood stream even at...

Charlie, I have the seperate floats switches. The enclosed Ruleamatic type . They plug up very easily. Thanks for your feedback. Doug

Has anyone used the AQUALARM SMART BILGE PUMP SWITCH. The specific model that I am considering is model 2003855209-12. This unit looks to be pretty good. The switch unit can be purchased seperately or with a control pannel that has a pump cycle counter, alarm bell and three position control...

Kahuna, I agree that the C-dory hull does roll and slap in a chop, slow down and you will be fine. I don't know how much water is too much for the hull but i"ll guarantee it is a lot more than I want to be out in. The economy of operation is very good in comparison with many other hull...
