We were just able to purchase our first C Dory 25, named Jean Marie, from her owners in Sausalito. We live in Bellingham, WA, but we flew down to meet Jim and Sally, and to do a sea trial. It was warm and sunny on San Francisco Bay. We went to Angel Island, and nearly out under the Golden Gate Bridge. I would never have guessed that I might do that in my life. We loved the boat, and bought it. It is now being shipped to Bellingham for its next chapter. I have seen pictures of the boat on the C Brats site, as it was owned by Rob in Portland prior to his selling it to the last owners. We are very excited, and would like to thank all the people we met at the rendevous', including Patrick and Kim, for giving us a lot of information, and a ride to help us decide what to do.

Good going! I THINK we talked to you at Bellingham, we hosted the Bellingham CBGT, we live in Birch Bay and have the CD25 Daydream. I will PM you our cell phones, and maybe we can meet in B'ham for a face-to-face!

Great news! And going under bridges is even better than going over them!

Doug and Donna, Congratulations on the new to you 25. You have a really nice boat there. I had the privileged of riding along on a Christmas light parade with Rob a couple of years back. he treated that boat very well, and you should reap the rewards.
Welcome to C-BRATS. It's a great place with some great folks and an exceptional bank of wisdom here. Everything you could want to know about C-Dorys and lots about places, practices and performance. Enjoy.
Harvey

Enjoy the boat Doug! It was a sad day to see her go, but I'm glad she's now back in the PNW.

Congrats and welcome to the family.
You will have a great time getting to know the boat and making it yours.
Post some photos when she gets home.
