Anyone have any ideas to make the whole camping thing easier? Where staying in a very small cabin. So we’ll be cooking outside on a coleman stove most of the time. I thought their may be tricks I don’t know about. Not just cooking any other ideas would be great.

Natural gas/propane stove..what does this ad mean? Is the stove ready for propane?

8
Mar/10

NATURAL GAS or PROPANE use it either way!
STOVE & OVEN, WORKS GREAT, VERY CLEAN!

Did I mention it is CLEAN? Super scrubbed clean.
The oven door glass window is VERY clean so you can see your baking food. The oven light works too!
Hotpoint brand, off-white cream color, measures 30 inches wide.

Has Propane Converter on it!(closeup shown in the picture)
You will need to cap off the natural gas hole to use it with propane.
A propane converter kit costs as much as $45. This stove has the hookup already, just in case you need it. (we used it with natural gas)

My question: Is it “plug and play” or do I still need to buy parts to make it propane??

The Dolphin 25 Fisher Plans are Ready

4
Dec/09
0

The Dolphin 25 Fisher has finally been finished after a couple of up and down years in its production! Basically it was constructed in between frenetic bouts of work, overseas trips, cruising the Whitsundays, illness and several location moves! But finally it’s ready!

However, one could possible conceive it as delayed pleasure, I suppose!

The D25 as it’s known was originally designed to be one of the largest, if not the largest stitch and glue project boat in Australia. ( whether or not that is actually true I know not until someone else claims differently!)

The idea came about when I had completed a Dolphin 19 Yawl and got to thinking,

“ There’s not an earthly reason why you couldn’t continue to create frameless stitch and glue boats as big as you want to? Why doesn’t anyone else do it?”

As far as I am concerned that question still hasn’t been answered and next year’s project will be an extension of the D25 into a proper grown up 35 foot stitch and glue frameless boat that could either be made as either a yacht or a power boat until late into the construction. It will have optional swing keel or bilge keels or if power only a long straight keel.

Some of the readers of this magazine are aware that I built the ‘Nicky J Miller” as a frameless yacht but she was actually built out of strip planking. (visit www. dolphinboatplans. com and follow the links to “The Nicky J. ” She has seen ( and survived! ) some fearful seas and has performed faultlessly over the last six years. So any sceptics should rest assured that it isn’t just a ‘flash in the pan!” The ongoing wonders of epoxy!

However, I digress, back to the D25. Several design changes were made during the initial construction. The boat was turning out to be much larger than I had perceived it in my mind’s eye and I realised that we could get the boat strong enough for a really big outboard if people wanted one, if we made a few changes to the pod and the transom.

In fact the D25 is fitted with a 90 h. p. Yamaha outboard and It can take any thing up to a 120 hp motor. The pod has a large amount of positive buoyancy and keeps the stern up nicely giving a few

benefits along the way.

These include, heaps of room inside, clear space out on deck for fishing diving gear and passengers. The outboard is quieter of course, being so far aft and the pod’s buoyancy helps the boat stay level when a big handful of power is applied and, more importantly she rides the big stern wave nicely when power is reduced suddenly.

Another exciting innovation with the D25 is that she is absolutely stuffed with around two and a half ‘flotation’ tonnes of the amazing new Thermotec buoyancy foam. Considering that the boat itself only weighs around a tonne, dare I think it, let alone say it, that the D25 that I have built is unsinkable…well, I’ll let you draw your own conclusions!

The Thermotec foam is the latest in hi-tech buoyancy foam and it is a boatbuilder’s and surveyor’s dream come true! It is so easy to install, it’s not true. My foam came in two metre by one metre by 15 centimetre black sheets but it comes in evry conceivable shape, square and round.

I simply cut it up with a sharp knife and squeezed it into place and glued it with builder’s glue! You cannot believe how simple that is. The technology is the brainchild of Theremotec the people that bought us the pool noodles except this foam is high density especially for positive flotation. . The buoyancy factor for the foam is 910kg buoyancy per cubic metre. Therefore one sheet 50mm x 1000mm x 2000mm would have a buoyancy factor of 91kg

No more brainwhirling calculations, two part mixing or building special compartments or sticky mixing, measuring and pouring and running away from the fumes! Just slice and glue!

This great foam has the honour of being accepted as suitable for the first commercial registration and a Lewis ski-boat has the honour of being the first Australian boat to be registered commercially using this foam. The ski-boat underwent very rigorous swamp tests, being totally flooded and stayed level and floating with six large adult men standing upright in it !

The added bonus is that this foam is closed cell, fuel proof, chemical proof and fire retardant…doesn’t get much better than that!

When I saw the photos of their test I decided on the spot to do the extra work to accommodate the foam and although the boat was delayed it has been very much worth it for peace of mind.

The D25 has been designed for the very maximum utilisation for divers and fishermen especially. The huge rear deck allows up to six fishermen to have room to fish a’plenty. The lowered transom allows the fish to be landed and dealt with on the rear platform that covers the pod.

The cabin allows a large double bed or twin singles to be chosen and can be changed on the spot. There is a special station outside for cooking and contains a portable camping gas stove alleviating the need for the dreaded gas certificate and a sink. Under this is storage a’plenty and the same goes for inside where there is a large cupboard space, room for a porta –potty or permanent sea toilet inside a shower compartment. This boat is easily live aboard for a couple for weeks on end. . One customer who has purchased the plans intends to live on his permanently, his own dream come true, fishing and cruising for life! Incidentally there is six foot two inches standing headroom in the cabin.

CONSTRUCTION

The basic construction is from epoxy composite ply, epoxy resin and cotech 450 gram woven cloth. When the ply sheets are presoaked before glassing the longevity is remarkable. A D25 built from this construction can expect to be around in twenty years id maintained as should be, as should any boat built this way, for that matter.

The boat has been like all Dolphins that have preceded it, to be built from the simplest of plans that have completely dispensed with lofting !

Lofting is the bane of all boatbuilders and after one has fought with billowing paper plans that flap, rip, tear and soak plus driving you batty, the simply ‘Easy-build’ process is a joy to use. An X/Y graph is drawn onto one side of the floor and hull sides treated plywood, using a felt tip marker, dots made where the given dimensions on the plans intersect and then using a bendy batten the dots are joined up and the shapes of the floor and sides are done!

All that remains is to cut ‘em out using a jig saw.

When that side is done you simply lay those shapes over the second side, draw the shape and then cut out again! So quick!

One great thing is that you can pre-soak, glass and fair the sides and floors before construction saving a huge and difficult uphill job of fairing when God and gravity isn’t on your side!. . the time savings are significant and the whole hull and floors should only only take about a week before fitting them together.

As to the cost overall it is really quite inexpensive compared to a ‘shop bought’. If labour is NOT taken into account ( if you are doing it yourself, that is!) and NO rented premises are used and the price of the motor is NOT included it should be possible to build the basic boat for around six thousand dollars. For a 25 foot by nine foot six beam boat that is not dear at all ( actually with the pod it is 27feet six inches L. O. A. )…. Compare the price of ANY 25 footer new or secondhand, you wont get near it . In fact there is a tidy profit to be made building a D25 if you so wish.

However, if it is to be a commercial venture I am willing to grant a licence for any interested parties should that be the case…contact details below!

The plans are available on CD rom ( you get the plans printed out at your local copy shop and the are two sheets of AO size paper ( about a metre square each) and that’s all you need . The full set of instructions book consisting seventy pages can be printed out as desired but isn’t necessary. AS a bonus over 200 colour photographs of the D25 build are included on the CD showing every stage of construction from start to finish and the price??

Well originally, I had envisaged a tag of around three hundred dollars for the plans ( I even quoted a few enquirers, remember?? ) but after all is said and done I have always been proud of bringing my boat plans to the readers of AABB very cheaply ( a great mag, eh?) so I am selling them initially for FIFTY FIVE DOLLARS ONLY !! as an introductory offer. You get a CD with full instructions ( seventy five pages) and a complete range of build photos, over 200 in all…. . A bargain? You bet!

I’m not really sure how long I will keep them at this price so go to www. dolphinboatplans. com and there will be a free download study plan and more info there, just follow the links.

Any other enquiries please email arcus1@bigpond. com or telephone mobile 061414347874 ( Australia ) I can answer you queries.

Happy boating as always!

Summer Is Here. Time To Get Ready. Pull Out The Pocket Knife

A new season is approaching fast, SPRING!! Yes, winter is coming to an end and it is time to think about spring and summer. It is time to pull out the fishing tackle, the boats, the camping gear and more. Put away the skis, snowshoes and winter coats, pull out the hiking boots, wetsuits and shorts. It is time to generate that list of summer projects you want to complete this year. Time to start planning those weekend getaways or even day outings. I don’t know about every one else but I get excited when summer is approaching. Love to get outdoors and not be bundled from head to toe. Now, before summer is here, is the time to check out your summer gear. Be it fishing tackle or camping gear, need to ensure everything is in working order and that you have everything you need for your outing. I believe now is the time to get started and not to wait until you are trying to actually go on a trip. Of course we all have the tendency to procrastinate but if you start now you should have time to pull out the stuff and in your down time browse through it . Now if you are fisherman, a diver, and an outdoorsman make sure you have that perfect knife (pocket knife, diver’s knife, or survival knife) in good working order. If you do not have that perfect knife or it is not in good working order it is time to look around for the perfect knife or clean the one you have. For the handyman looking to start on the summer project list make sure you have the perfect Leatherman tool available. Get ready to jump out and begin playing in that big back yard – be it a national park, state reserve, a lake or a local park. Spend this summer bicycling, hiking, rafting, horseback riding, fishing, golfing, diving, cannoning and more!! Being in Colorado one of my favorite spots is Steamboat Lake at Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Do you have a favorite outdoors spot?

A perfect place to do that browsing for that perfect knife is at http://www. findyourknife. com. Take your time and look around. Never be in a hurry because you do want that perfect knife in your pocket, on your belt or even in your drawer. Check out the large selection and variety of knifes at at findyourknife. com.

Get Your Camping Equipment at Ready to Leave

For each camper, camping means different things. The difference in the comprehension of the activity implies a difference in the camping equipment for the campers. For example, there are some campers that pack their equipments in backpacks. This means that their gadgets are lesser than those that camp using an RV. When you camp with the use of a backpack, this involves trekking and hiking. Your camping equipments are secured on your back. If you have to walk long distances, it can lead to back problems. The same goes if you are carrying several things in your backpack.
 
In order to avoid back pains, there are some things that you have to consider. First, you have to make sure that your backpack is light. The backpack is an important camping equipment. You should buy one that is strong and will accommodate all of your camping gear. There are some cheaper hiking bags. However, you are not assured of the quality of these backpacks. There is a possibility that if you use a cheap bag, it might get destroyed while you are hiking. You can avoid this incident by opting for backpacks that are made out of high-quality materials.
 
Your backpack’s fit also counts a lot, especially to your health. Your hiking bag should provide you with comfort. It should fit well against your back, in order to avoid discomfort as you trek long distances. You would not want to make your experience a bad one. When you go camping, it should be fun. You would not be able to enjoy the scenery and the whole hike, if your camping equipment is bothering you. You will be able to find the best equipments if you purchase all of them in a one-stop shop. There are some stores that are found in local areas. On the other hand, there are some shops that sell camping equipments over the web.
 
If you are looking for camping equipment, travel, or backpacking gears, you can find all these in Ready to Leave. This is an online store that sells equipments for camping such as sleeping bags, tents, liners for sleeping bags, travel cots, and accessories for camping. This store is among the top online retailers of the United Kingdom, when it comes to equipments for backpacking, travel, and camping. The products of Ready to Leave range broadly. You can find the smallest camping tool, to the most important camping equipment.
 
Aside from essential camping equipments, you can also purchase traveling bags and luggage at Ready to Leave. These include baby carriers, rucksacks, luggage, laptop bags, and travel security. The survival gadgets of this online retailer include binoculars, army knives, navigation tools, and other survival equipments. There are also available tools for drinking and eating.

Getting Ready to Go Camping

Dec/09

So you want to take your kids camping just like you did as a child with your parents of grandma or grandpa. Opps the camp ground they took you to is now condos on the lake.

Let assume you are new to camping but you have some experience as a child. You will need to become familiar with camping gear. If you have a friend that camps a lot you can go with them to learn the basics.

Ah go with a friend and show him he is smarter than me not a chance. For I would never hear the end of it.

The first thing you will need is some type of shelter for you and the kids.

Then you will need something to sleep in a sleeping bag and something to cook with. Pots and pans portable barbecue hey I know how to use that. Already you are on the road to your first camping trip.

What Gear Do I Need?

Most first timers start out with a tent. The first tent should not be too expensive but it should provide good shelter in the wind and rain. With all the models out there spend some time looking them over do not get one that requires a master’s degree in engineering to set up. Stay to the basic needs as you get more experience the tent can be given to the kids as you will upgrade to a fancy one.

Remember you are camping on a budget no use in spending thousands of dollars for all the gear only to find the wife, kids, or yourself hates camping. The tent should shield you from bugs sun and the rain.

More than 600 easy to do money saving tips in the 10-Minute Tech The Book.

There are bugs our here in the wilderness so be ware. The tent should have a good screen to keep the little varmints out and yet be easy for the kids to open.

The tent will be some place to sleep and store your cloths. If the weather turns bad them the kids can play or read in the tent under supervision. It is nice to sleep under the stars but you will have to get a tent sooner or later.

So choose one that has enough room for you and the family and all the gear you will want to put in the tent while you are out swimming. Your tent should cost between 100 to 200 dollars depending on the style you pick for your family

If you want to sleep in a tent or under the stars up should have some type of padding the ground is not comfortable to sleep on. You will find padded mats made from plastic with air bubbles, vinyl cover stuffed pads and the good old air mattress.

I prefer the air mattress as it also doubles for the family to float around on the lake. If you go with the air mattress remember you will need a pump to blow them up a large foot pump works best.

Sleeping bags

if you are like most people you will be camping in the summer and early fall so do not buy a sleeping bag rated for -20 weather this will just be extra money that could be use for something other thing you will want.

The light rectangular sleeping bag will do If you and your spouse want to sleep in the same sleeping bag just zip them together and you will have one large sleeping bag. Do not forget your pillows but if you do roll up your towels they can make not a bad pillow.

Be sure to have at least two ground tarps at least the size of the floor of your tent. Place on down on the ground then set your tent on it. The second one may be used as a shelter above the picnic table.

Campground Cooking

All of use love the smell of food cooking outside whether it is at the camp ground or in the backyard. If you barbecue a lot at home you all ready have the basic now how to camp cook. Most public camp grounds and private camp ground will have a picnic table and a cooking pit at each camp site.

Take a portable grill with you and you will feel right at home. Pick up a gas stove and a set of pots and pans and you are ready to be a camp chef, remember a coffee pot as the nearest coffee shop may be 20 or so miles away.

Depending on you level of cooking skills you will now be able to prepare meats as if you were at home.

When shopping for gear go to the local big box store as they will carry every thing you need. Some will have tents set up if so climb in ask yourself is this roomy and will every one fit in comfortable. along with all the stuff you will take with you.

If the tents are not set up mark out a piece of the floor at home with tape this will be the same size as the floor of the tent call a family meeting and get everybody to lay in the tape lines you laid down is it the right size? If not reassess your needs.

That’s it. . . you are that much closer to have a fun camping trip for all!
