The Cape Dory Board

Thanks Bill,

I didn't see you jib posting until after I posted the above posting:( Anyway thanks for responding.
Hope our wakes meet someday, been reading your posts for a long time. Hoping for a bright New
Year for you and all the CDers!

Fair Winds,

Ahoy Bill and Merry Christmas to you and family, Not to be picky, I think your main sounds a lot like my main sail. I was looking for a newer one and to use my old one as a backup. It's a good price though. About your jib would you know what the measurement are by chance? I have a small jib and was ...

Ahoy There,

I am interested in your sail, does it have a manufacture's name on it?

Saw this on ebay. Maybe some on needs a sail for a CD 14.

I stand corrected, I went and check the price on the wrenches and they are now $49. I know they cost, but there is no real (other tool) that works as well and that does not score up the jam nut. Something else to think about is that one of the wrenchs is straight and the other one has an offset. Thi...

Rollo, As far as I know Spartan Marine is still making them unless they have gone out of business? They run $45 acording to their price list. I bought a prop shaft hose from them about a year ago. Here are the links to their site..... Catalog page with wrenches. http://www.spartanmarine.com/catalog....

Ahoy Wizard,
I just recently replaced all 6 on my CD 25D. I had to buy 100' and have plenty left over. It takes 3' per port. I would like .35 per foot plus shipping if you would like some.

The hand crank is from a 2GM20 acroding to the person on ebay. I looked the Yanmar part number which is 128170-76790. This part number also is used on the 1GM10, 2GM20-F. It might work on other Yanmars, I am not sure but he did give the dimensions on the shaft size and rotation. Hope this helps....

Ahoy all, If anyone is looking for a hand crank for the smaller Yanmars here is one on ebay. They normally go for $45-$70 bucks new. I got one last year, I think I paid about $14 plus shipping. Note: They crank in reverse of rotation because the crank pin is the end of the cam shaft, which turns the...

Ahoy All,

Here is a '75 CD28 for sale on the east coast of Florida on Craigslist if anyone is interested??? Looks pretty good for the price!

Mine were the same way. I went to Harbor Freight and bought a headlight lense polisher kit, I think it was about $14, maybe cheaper on a sale. It looks just like a simple sponge disk that you put on a plastic wheel in the end of drill. Comes with a liquid polishing compound and about ten minuets per...

Ahoy Kent Little, You have really done an excellent job, I am currently doing my CD 25D and I know all the work that you have done to say the least. Your CD is absolutely beautiful. I notice that you now working on the mast and I’m not sure but you might have already thought of this. You can drill...

Thank you Ray and Carter for the great advise. I knew I would get an answer from the Board! It is truly a great group of sailors with a lot of knowledge.

Ahoy All,

I have a question about my Cape Dory 25D Stuffing Box packing material. In my CD owners manual it says: “All CDY stuffing boxes use ¼â€

This one is on Craigslist and will also be too far away also, but here it is.
