Maybe the return is only going to the port tank

to clean it. Can you reach the prop with a boat hook to see if you can "feel" any barnacles or trash wrapped around the prop?

Maybe it was not even a CD, what was the hull number? We are talking about the trawler? I have seen a boat advertised as a CD 24 Trawler that also did not look like others I had seen. I was never convinced it was a CD.

I have a long shaft 9.9T for sale with just a couple hours, PM me if interested.

the early ones had 5 ports per side, pilot berths and a worm type wheel instead of a pedestal. I think I had seen a picture of a tiller 30K a few years back but they would be rather rare

Very Nice, good job on the heat shield behind the heater

looking for links for their database

Mine is on the starboard sign where you could pump and drive at the same time, it just pumps into the lazeratte under the gas tank shelf, you don't need anything on the outside of the hull

Maybe you drilled into the area above the keel and there was just a little water above the lead?, thru one of those access grates in the floor?

I bought a 9db antenna off ebay for 9.95 +5 or so S&H, gave me a much better signal for just a few bucks, the same group had a 14 dbi yagi from enterasys for 58 boat bucks, just a customer, I have not tested the yagi either, you would need to have a card with the right antenna plug. http://store...

Never seen one on a CD27 but I have seen yamaha 15 on a hunter 30 and a 9.9 on a columbia (crelock not payne) 28. Some folks shy away from putting a 15k motor in a 10k boat. Takes a beefy motor mount

as Mr. Burns says on the Simpsons, Excellent!

Sad ending, good luck in your search. Something for us all to be careful about. Usa Auctions has what appears to be an 81, they have it listed as a 24 instead of a 25. The hull # is off a late model 25 and as such would have the teak floors and later bronze ports. If it was just dumped on the beach ...
