Chrysler Sailors Forum

Not to rehash or repeat any old posts, but: Do we have a consensus on where exactly the lowest point is on a 22? I still have not put in my 2 long planned pumps. Consensus on location, never seen it. My plan has always been one under the forward port side seat just outboard of the Keel pin area and...

Looking real good Kevin!

Thanks
Alan

Nicely done Bill! I like this video instruction/demonstration method you use. I watched your Rudder post leading edge video too. Mine is made of wood and is roughly the same dimensions and shape as your aluminum one you showed. I wonder if a PVC or some other plastic material would be a good replace...

Oh Snap! I just looked at the forum stats. 69shark has 1983 posting on this forum and EE has only 1975 postings. :shock: Shocking I tell you, simply shocking. EE you're not going to let that stand, man! Your just not posting enough here I'm thinking. :wink: I know I'm way behind on my postings. Leck...

Okay you old timers, remember that old Batman TV show in the 1960's? Whenever Batman and Robin went into the bad guy/gal's lair the screen would be tilted to show something was "crooked" about the place? I'm just saying, you never know, the Joker or the Riddler could be behind this one. :l...

I have a whole screen full of unread posts to catch up on. :shock: Clearly I have been neglecting my Chrysler Sailing Brain Trust addiction. Oh I've been thinking about all of you, just not been able to get here is all with work and school. Okay, let the fun begin! :P I've got some reading to do... ...

the coolest part was when I got up there and got a good look at the side of her. It was America 3!! I'll remember that forever! I've never figured out what she was doing there though. LeatherneckPA you had me running down stairs to check my photo's. Nope it was not America 3 I sailed in Maui back i...

Yup, lots of sailing

Which raises the question. What is the OEM max rated hp for a C-26?

On my C-22 the Max hp is 10 hp.

Thanks
Alan

Did I miss it? NO, I did not.

To all, from the oldest salty, crusty Chrysler sailors like me, to the newest freshly minted Chrysler Sailor, little Mark, have a very Merry Christmas and a happy new year!

Hip, hip Hurray! Hip, hip Hurray! Hip, hip Hurray!

Merry Christmas and happy anniversary! I think you need to go for the Win , Win scenario. By all means go on the cruise with your sweetie. This is not even on the table, first mate comes first, no question. The add says "Will deliver for gas money." You call up the owner and see if it has ...

As Yougy Baira (sp) once said "DeJavu all over again." The current state of customer service. Well this was an expensive future business error on there part. Put foot in the cross hairs, pull trigger, Job done! Sorry you got BOGU'ed again. I hope the Quality is as good as the last set you ...

Christmas is just days away now. What are you asking Santa for this year :?: I already got the Red Ryder BB gun covered. lets see here, I want... Radar reflector GPS Auto Tiller New custom built galley. (I have to build it) New Galley table, post and boots. Moorage for 2012 Paint the trailer New tir...

That's a heck of a thing letting a Chrysler go like that. But it sounds like you found her a great new owner. Way to go, a classy boat from a classy owner to a new classy owner. Congratulations! And I see no reason for you Not to continue on posting here. We have many Chrysler Sailboat Alumni here r...

Now that is one of the BEST photo's and sailing stories I've ever read on the forum! Congratulations, and yes I do seem to have some warm salt water running down my cheeks. No Ocean is sight, hmmmm.

Thanks
Alan

Wow the real deal, no letter of mark on that ship. I'd never heard of the Red background before.

Thanks
Alan

Man I would like one too but I think hanging around Captain Scott is as close as I will get to a captains license any time soon. I have looked into it and all indicators say, take the classes. Some where I have a BIG text file from the USCG with all the test questions and there answers. They once up...

:D The end result of trying to get the sail up was a torn rotator cuff. YIKES! Lets see 1. Surgery (add ice) 2. Strap arm to chest for 2 months (add ice) 3. Physical Therapy for 2 months (add ice) The term "breaking and adhesion" will bring a whole new level of dread and improved movement...

The typical reaction in Seattle to Snow is... OMG SNOW! Lets git in the car and go crash into something right away. I always give my fellow Seattleites the first snow day to let Darwin take effect and weed themselves out of the driving gene pool. It snows like maybe once every year up to an inch or ...

AH, I have to take a more fanciful Tack here. The entire Aubry, Matturan series by Patric O'Brian 20+ books. Everyone know one of his books "Master and Commander" which you learn a lot about Captain Aubry. But his best-est friend "The Doctor", is only barely touched on in Master ...

Man if it were even on the same coast I would volunteer to give it a good home. I'd Fly down, buy a trailer in the area and rent a U-haul and tow it home.

Some day, some day.

Thanks
Alan

Wow just 3 more people in Washington and we would move up to number 5. Say Captain Scott, if everyone you sold one of your Chrysler boats to was on the forum now we would be number 5 on the list. :lol: I think your going to have to make it a condition of sale from now on when you sell a Chrysler sai...

Here you go...







Thanks
Alan

Yea Baby!

Thanks
Alan

Ooooh, Ahhhhhh, Cool!

Thanks
Alan

I kind of like this vendor list idea. Like Angie's List. This would help with Sail Vendors, parts vendors, etc. Product endorsements, may be getting into a lee shore here but I love the product endorsements I've gotten on this forum. From LED lights, to proper propeller pitch for my boat. Thanks Alan

Ah yes, first mates. My bride and I are on our 30th year of being married, dated for 4 years before getting married. I fell in love at first sight with her on our first day of High School. It took me 2 years get up the nerve to ask her out on a date for the first time. I know she still loves me too....

Opinion only here. The more in-direct, electric free light inside, the better. I like my translucent strips in my fore and aft hatches. Gives me a warm light inside even on grey days here in the Seattle area. I think I would try Mcrandall idea with a clear fiberglass resin or epoxy to seal and smoot...

Leaks, good one. I'm going to say it's your Port Hole window(s). The first posting I ever read on this forum was about a top side leak. One of the people who responded said that all of our boats came with factory installed leaks. :shock: This I read before I purchased my boat and I still love my boa...
