    05/04 - 05/05 - Lopez Opening Day 2007

    As a first year boater, new to the NW, how directly does this effect me when heading to the Lopez Gathering? Do I need to review those numbers and then coordinate my timing through Thatcher Pass? The few times I've been out what I always check is the weather, i.e. the wind and wave heights. If...

    Boat Gun

    I've been intrigued by this thread and came up with the following idea. For my next boat project thought I'd try to install one of these babies on the port side. :roll: Tom

    Boat Gun

    Your gun is shown next to a bear skull - can you hunt with a pistol ? i.e. do you use this gun for hunting. Wondering what you use the gun for on the C-Dory - safety when walking on shore ? Would it be an issue if you went into Canadian waters? Cheers, Tom

    Coast Guard Rescue

    The story has the following quote "The crew didn't have a pump on board, so the Coast Guard launched a cutter and a helicopter to help. " Do most folks have a hand pump on board their C-Dorys, or a second backup for the bilge pump? Tom

    Manuals, Checklists and that sort of thing

    1st try out of Mokai with CD22

    That does look like fun - however I think in practice if the water was under 6 " I might just walk across it? Where's the C-Dory anchored in that shot ? Cheers, Tom

    Fishing 101 - San Juans

    Very basic question for the local fishing pro's. Now that we are comfortable with taking our boat out into the San Juans, Shan really wants to catch a fish. Any kind of fish. She has fishing license, a fishing pole, but no idea on how to catch something. What is the simplist, easiest way to...

    SO WHAT DID YOU DO WITH OR ON YOUR C-DORY TODAY??

    Another gorgous weekend in the San Juans. Shan and I went out Saturday morning, made it back to Anacortes Sunday night. Left the rain in Seattle behind and never looked back. Spent the weekend exploring Orcas Island. Some spots more crowded than others, but still hardly anyone out on the water...

    CD-19 thoughts

    ??? And they still let this guy post comments on this site ??? The 19 is like a big brother version of the 16 cruiser, its more like a cruiser than a angler (compared to the 16), due to the fact that you have an area for sleeping. Plus, the advantage for us on the 19 is the openess in the...

    Changing Boat Names

    You might want to look at this thread - one I started where I asked the question about what to name my boat http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t=5286 Key point I discovered is that you are only asking for trouble when you ask a question like that to the C-Brats. Its like asking what is the...

    05/04 - 05/05 - Lopez Opening Day 2007

    Called Kathy this afternoon - she found a spot for Dakota on a 40 foot dock next to a 22. She said if I was sure I had a 19 she could fit me in. I've never measured my boat, but C-Dory says its a 19. Looking forward to it. See everyone there! Tom

    Mechanical Steering

    Marty, It only took me 4 weeks to replace mine on my 16 Angler. It was a little difficult to get out of the engine bracket, it didnt look like it had been pulled out to be greased in about 12 years, so it was a little sticky. Had to use a mallet and steel pin to pound it out. Also, I bought...

    SO WHAT DID YOU DO WITH OR ON YOUR C-DORY TODAY??

    Beautiful day today up at Anacortes. Went over to Friday Harbor for lunch - in through Thatcher Pass - out through Pevine Pass. Sunshine all day long. First time at Friday Harbor - parked up front. Tom

    19 Angler Question

    Shan and I recently purchased a 19 Angler. There are a few minor differences from the earlier ones that I know of. The seating configuration has been changed, its really a two person boat, the extra seats that faced towards the stern are now just pads, more for kids than adults. Also, one issue...
