Thanks for the complements. I'm done placing deadlines on this project. It kind of wrecks the fun of building something scrambling to get each task done on time .Hope to be in the water soon despite the poor weather as of late.
Motors have been ordered still have not showed up!!! Confused

My work garage is a grave yard of C-Dory parts. Now with paint applied it should clear out a little. Muskie fishing is open this time of year. (thats what us Northern Cheddar heads do for fun) That may slow progress a little.
Despite all the set backs the boat is looking more like a C-Dory.
Ill try to do a better job of posting pics.

Chris,

That is quite the project you took on! I'm glad to see you are still working at it. You have done a wonderful job so far from what I see of the pictures you have posted.

I had toyed with the idea of building my own boat following the plans on www.Bateau.com but I know I would never get the boat finished as I just don't have the discipline to keep at it.

From the latest pictures it looks like you are on the home stretch! Now you just have to redo the interior and mount all the goodies Smile

Way to go!

Hey Chris, do you have any more pics Laughing

Or should I ask if you have posted more pics recently. I don't want to miss any of the work you have been doing. Butch

Fantastic! I'm in love . I have been lusting after one of these boats since 1993 when I first saw one. I was 24 years old then.Took almost 12 years To finally enjoy one of my own. They ride better than I expected. They do really perform well in waves. I was a little worried about cabin temps on hot days but with the doors and widows open it is very nice. On Lake Superior the hard top is wonderful. So far I used it to Day trip with my family ,Picnic, deer hunt, duck hunt and fish. It can do it all. The shallow draft is one of its most pleasant features. The ability to beach it is super nice. I think its going to be one long winter. Its 8 degrees outside right now and the Lake is making ice.
