No Danny. But apparently there's a really good seafood restaurant called McMenamy's Seafood in MA. People are always asking me if we're related so there must be some McMenamy's in the NE. I'm from St Louis MO originally.

Sounds like a fairly straightforward project. My post is welded to the base. Looks like there are several options for base with a removable post. I'd be nice to be able to put the table in the cockpit. I like your idea to put a table across the galley. I bought an Origo 3000 alcohol stove and figured I'd have to put it on the ice box. A shelf will open things up nicely.

There’s no need to reinforce the cockpit floor, just seal the edges of the core when you drill the holes for the base and the mounting bolts. The original base for my table in the cabin broke so I replaced it with the round base that you can buy at most chandlers. I used the same fitting for the cockpit. I had to replace it after about five years out here in salt water. It rotted away due to the salt but five years is about the time you would want to remove it to reseal it anyway. It’s so nice to have a table in the cockpit when you’re relaxing after a day of sailing, just remember that the mount on the table is slightly offset to one side.

Did you reinforce the cockpit floor before you added a post hole for the table? I was thinking of doing the same thing. I read that some 25's came from the factory so the table could be moved. Thanks for the info and the welcome.

The 25 will hobby horse quite a bit in short chop, especially if you have a heavy outboard on the back and an anchor on the front. I have a 25” ELS 4 stroke on my boat and I rarely experience any cavitation in waves but I do have stress cracks on the transom. That’s what happens when you replace an 89 pound 2 stroke with a 108 pound 4 stroke. Mine has a plywood backing plate glassed into the transom from the factory and I have a 2” thick, one foot square oak spacer between the mount and the transom on the outside. The oak spacer is there so I can fully tilt the outboard for sailing. When I lived on Lake Ontario my wife and I would cruise the Thousand Islands for 7-10 days every year. The boat is fine for two to do extended cruises but it does tend to get small if you’re stuck inside in rainy weather. I made a boom tent from ripstop nylon that covers the entire cockpit and wraps over the lifelines. It gives us shade and allows us to use the cockpit in all but the worst rain storms. I also put a mount for the table in the cockpit floor so we can eat and entertain outside of the main cabin. I made a plywood board that fits across the cabinets at the main hatchway. It serves as a great bar and a place to place for the stove when cooking so the heat stays out of the cabin. Give me a shout if you have any specific questions about how to set up your 25, I know the boats very well. Rick Taillieu Nemesis '75 C&C 25 #371 Shearwater Yacht Club Halifax, NS. Thanks. I've been wondering how using the engine would play out. During our sailing lessons we've always been in shore, never any real rough chop. I'll be using the Fort Pierce inlet which is one of the more benign inlets here in FL, but at times it for sure can get choppy, even if it's not low tide with and easterly wind. I was curious if people ever take these on longer trips? I was thinking of going down to the keys but I'm not quite sure how feasible that is. It's just my wife and I and we've done a lot of camping etc. It's a little over 100 nm to get down there. Thanks again for the info.
