| Just put in the order and deposit to the factory for a 25' Cruiser. The delivery date is tentatively next February. Bummer, but it will be worth the wait...I've been shopping C-Dorys for nearly 20 years...finally pulled the trigger! And we still have a few months to ponder the installation options before the build actually starts. Guess its another season of kayaking on Puget Sound for us...which is still a pretty spectacular way to spend a sunny day. |

Congratulations on your order. Now the work begins. Do I go with twins, swim step on port or starboard side, tinted windows or not, how much chain on my anchor rode and do I go with the factory installed windlass? Aluminum trailer with electric over hydraulic brakes? The list goes on and on. Glad you are with C-Brats as it can be a wealth of knowledge and resource to help you complete your build.

Congratulations. It is amazing to me that the factory is back ordered that long.

What Dr. Bob said...although if you ordered an Alaskan Camper today, you would be told your delivery will be in October 2022. I guess good products are worth the wait, but wow!

I believe Eastern has a similar time projection for the build on a new Rossi and used ones are scarce as hens teeth right now - not to mention selling for crazy $$.

Yes, that back order is surprising. I was at Master Marine, Mt Vernon a few days ago. They seemed to have a bunch of C-Dory boats there, new, or at least unnamed or numbered, and said they were selling by the bunch.
When asked about "High tops", they said that was all they ordered.
