where to get replacement c-dory graphics

Jake B

I am in need of some replacement c-dory graphics for the outside of the boat. I have emailed c-dory and got a response as to what year my boat was, but never heard back if I could order them or not.
I have tried goggle on a few different occasions but come up empty. I was wondering if anyone here has replaced before and where you went? I am looking for "factory" in that I want size and font to be correct and acurate.
thanks

Yes, I put new graphics on my a few years ago and got them from the factory. Charlie is correct, don't waste your time emailing, just call them. I have pic's of the old and new in my Soapy Joe photo album.

Why not refer these folks to the local dealers for C-Dory? I mean like Wefings in Florida who advertises and posts on this site, Sportcraft and others I'm not familar with in North Carolina, out west, etc.. They could take the order and drop ship the requested items. Seems like we need to support the dealers a little better as they seem to be a little more responsive as the factory has bigger fish to fry. JMHO Idea

That was my first call a few years back and my dealer instructed me to call the factory.

My bad, it would seem like a missed opportunity to service a customer (you) on your dealers part. Is your dealer still an active dealer for C-Dory? We are wholesale distributors different a number of product lines and we refer business to our dealers all the time as we don't want to compete with them by dealing with end users. I assume they don't just give these decals / emblems away and but maybe they do. The dealer should be the one who communicates with the factory and dealer deals with the public. The same way new C-Dory boats are sold. The dealer deserves to make a profit to be able to stay in business. The original poster did not get a response from the factory but maybe the factory only responds to phone calls these days.

No, the dealer is no longer handling the C-dory line, but certainly was then. I agree with you 110% regarding the "chain" of who should be handling & selling these items, hence my first call being to the dealer. I would not dream of calling the Ford factory for a part for my pickup truck.

The graphics on my "new" 22 were damaged by a person who was detailing the boat. He went to a local graphics design outfit, and they made new graphics, which were of better quality than the originals. Not expensive--

Bringing back and old thread for anyone looking for C-Dory factory decals.
I called C-Dory yesterday @ 360-389-5351 and ordered today a pair for my 87 Angler (standard vinyl) for $45 if you want the raised lettering as seen on the newer boats there $95.( a bit pricey but had to have em).
Also when I removed my old vinyl I color sanded/polished and could make out the old name of the boat which I thought it said hunky dory before but it says Lucky Dory with dice below it, anyone remember a Lucky Dory on this site that had an 87? Just curious Laughing

Fish on!

Interesting that the had both vinyl and raised graphics available.

Here is a link to the album pix where I put both the boat name and the C-Dory brand lettering on:

Thanks for sharing the pix! I took a shot at calling and they are out of the office due to the C-19 issue but they called back the next day - great customer service especially during these times. Looking forward to putting the new ones on - should have em in 3 days Thumbs Up

I had no idea that the raised emblems are so expensive. I got them free at the 2017 Bellingham CBGT. Plus a C-Dory hat. Score.

The most difficult part of the install was removing what was left of the old decal. In my photo album under "Boat Lettering."

Total score Cool

my logo’s were in bad shape but the heat gun and goof off took care of it pretty easily! The problem I had was the color under the old decal was more yellow than the boat color so I color sanded then polished so now it is just barely visible and I will place the new ones in the same place so no problem Thumbs Up
