C-Dory will be in the Dunkin Donuts Bldg,

I think the Police/ fire Boat RIB was over in the Civic Center.

Dunkin Donuts is a pretty popular institution here in New England, and has better products including coffee, than any ole' Krispy Kreme (talk about bad spelling!).

Of course, if you want REAL(expensive)COFFEE you need a Seattle Starbucks!

Tell your friends and see you at the boatshow!
Fair Winds!!!!

Thank You to the many BRATS who always make the boat shows such a fun time.

The Providence Show turned into a fine time, with the last hours Sunday completely without customers as all of New England cheered from a comfortable and probably well lubricated corner to support the unbelievable Patriots.

But before that was the boat show and the BRATS.

The finest moment for a boat show participant is for a customer to ask a dealer a question and the vendor says, "You see that guy standing right there? He owns the same model you're talking about. He could answer that question better than I ever could."
Of course, 20 minutes later the poor C-BRAT is still cornered and still talking. Our most sincere thanks to Dan Aube and family, Fred and Sheila Heap, and the many others who took the time to stop by and were kind enough to handle the varsity questions the many C-Dory admirers had on their minds.
Y-Landing's next show will be the Maine BoatBuilders Show in Portland Maine 16-18 March where we will have the 25 C-Ranger Tug (sorry, only room for one boat). Tickets for all C-BRATS as always will be waiting at "Will Call". I'll have a better and separate announcement as we get closer.
Again, thanks to all who made the journey. And we had quite the adventure getting back in the middle of the ice storm! Now I can confidently say that these boats TOW all weather, too. The boats are still completely glazed, which we hope will mean they are quite clean underneath. Expecting 2 degrees F tonight (-17 windchill) so we'll thaw the boats later.
Best of luck to all your play-off teams!
Fair Winds!

HI John,

I thought of you guys once for a second during a commercial during the game Sunday, while sipping a cool one. Wondered how the ice storm hit ya's.

I hope the show went well for you guys, and that you sold lots more C-dory's in this area. We can always use more C-Brats for local gatherings and cruises.

It's very gracious of you to offer tickets to boat shows to those who already have C-dorys. I'm anxious to see the 25' Ranger. You've convinced me to go to the Boatbuilder's Show again, just to see that Tug.

Guys, and Tuffy to.

Sheila and I thank you for your hospitality during the boat show. Sorry to miss all you other gals and guys. Good to see Dan Aube. He would love to see us all on the big Conn River. Maybe soon.
