Re: One of the dangers of being "thethered" to your sailboat

This issue was always a good mental debate for me with weighing the pros and cons when sailing solo (for me thats 99% of the time). Where I ended up was that it was better to be tethered than not tethered. My setup: - Jack lines running fore and aft - Use of an auto inflate life vest with a harness ...

Re: first-time buyer needs advice

I had the Nissan Sail Pro (I believe the same as the Tohastu) and it was nice on the CD25. You asked what the Pros/Cons were for an outboard in the well. IMO the Pros are the look of the boat having the motor in the well. Also, its a nice setup with the gas tanks on either side. However, when runnin...

Re: 1974 CD25 - Pintle For Sale

Boat sold end of August and is off to Long Island. Of course I find it mildly interesting/ironic that basically the day it sold I finally get one response on this forum posting. LOL. Seriously though this board has been a great help to me with my first boat and CD's will always have a special place ...

Re: 1974 CD25 - Pintle For Sale

All offers will be considered. Good chance to get a good deal. The boat is on the hard for the season and I am hoping to not have to pay for winter storage again. Honestly, she is a nice boat with lots of new/newer major items including motor, auto pilot, stove, thru hulls, etc. Not to mention not o...

Nice Boat

Bumping to the top for the new year. Pintle is a nice boat with some nice equipment including:

- New 4 stroke motor!
- New tiller pilot!
- Replaced and upgraded thru hulls!
- etc etc

Great boat for someone that wants to jump in and go sailing. The hard work has already been done.

Best one I have had...

This summer I was on starboard tack passing another saillboat heading the other direction the opposite tack. There was ample room between the two boats and we were not in a channel so to speak but lots of deep water on either side... an open style fishing boat (32 feet maybe?) went flying between bo...

Wanted - CD25 100% Hank On Jib

Looking for a resonably priced and reasonably nice hank on jib (110%/working). I have a larger Genny so would like a smaller jib for windier days. Please PM if you have anything available.
