General Discussion

The next generation of the discussion forum is now up and running. Our Discussion Forum and the Classifieds are now referred to as Groups. You can view either group, without being a member of the group, but to Post, you must Join the group.

TIP #1: If you see the "Join" button, just click that to join the group. There are no questions to answer, just a single click. If you do not see the Join button, then you are already a member of the group. We were able to add some club members to the Groups, but that process was bumpy.

TIP #2: When on one of Group pages, the typical menu, along the top, is not displayed. In the upper left corner, you should see something like: "Home > Groups > General Discussion". Just click "Home" and you will return to the CCCC Home page, with our norma…

Good morning everyone. I'm in the process of trying to move a 1979 41 foot commander from Suwannee Florida to northern Alabama. The flybridge instrument panel and railing, etc have been removed. The wheelhouse hardtop remains. The mover has a hydraulic trailer and can get the boat within one foot of the road. Can anyone give me an accurate measure of lowest keel point to the top of the hard top? Anyone have experience moving this particular model of Commander?

I'm getting mixed information from potential movers regarding the necessity of hardtop removal and windshield removal. Of course I would rather not but I don't want the movers to show up and have to do it on the spot.

any input is very much appreciated!

My ‘67 38 Sedan has two engine batteries and one generator start battery; no house battery. I assume one of the engine batteries runs the 12 volt stuff in the boat. These batteries are charged by a ProMariner three bank charger when on shore power.

I have removed the old 120 volt fridge and purchased a 12v / 120v fridge, so I don’t have to run the generator to keep the fridge cold when underway. I want to add two house batteries in parallel to power the fridge, with an additional ProMariner two bank charger for charging when on shore power. My question is how to charge these batteries off the engine alternator(s) when running?

Thanks for any advice.

Jim

Good morning, we need to replace our aluminum T Track that our aft cabin door hangs from. Any ideas? Thanks Mike & Mary K
