Didn't see the boat so don't know how to spell the name, but I met the owner of "4 C Sons" or "4 Seasons" or ???. He was asking what bottom paint to get to put on his C-Dory at the counter in the West Marine store in Port Townsend. I asked if he had looked at C-BRATS.com, but he had never heard of it. I gave him a card that has the website pointed out.

Saw a handsome green sixteen cruise slowly by the houseboats on Portage Bay in Lake Union (Seattle) yesterday. Folks, that guy in the blue coat waving to you was me. It was a good day to motor about, and I imagine you had big fun.

Dwight, tell Fred and Joe I said hi. And 11 days ago at Sucia I saw the most unique of all C-Dorys: the rarely spotted 29'. It's not quite the ivory billed woodpecker, but I believe I'm correct that just one was built. Nice couple, keeps it up in Pat and Patti country, Blaine. Besides my boat, there also was a 19' at the dock and an anchored Tomcat. Eight boats at one point, half were C-Dorys.

Penguin is #1, and was recently sold on the Erie Canal. The list of boats on this web site shows six 29's--there could be double posting. My recollection is that there were 9 built. There is a thread with comments by the designer and that is where I believe the 9 number came from.

I remember seeing that 29 on a trailer at a gathering in Bellingham. It had a "wide load" banner across the stern. I thought that was an appropriate name.

I saw one of the 29 footers in Valdez this spring when I was there to pickup my new-to-me 22' cruiser. The boat was parked in the same lot. When I drove in the first time, I saw at a distance the 29 footer's familiar shaped bow sticking out from a pole barn and was briefly quite confused about how the 22' cruiser I was there to look at had such a large bow. I believe the 29 footer was called "Hunky Dory" and was told it had a single diesel.

Nigel, it was great seeing you and Miss Maria on lake Chelan Sunday! Since buying our C-Dory (Lil Teal) in October, we've fallen in love with everything C-Dory. My two kids (7 and 8 1/2) can now spot them from a quite distance.

Our "home" is puget sound, and we've spent a lot of time this year in the salt water. This was our first time in fresh water, and we felt a bit out of place amongst all of the jet skis and ski boats. Seeing a fellow C-Dory made our day!

Our brief chat on the VHF made for a great start to a wonderful cruise to Stehekin. Once there we had lunch, biked to the bakery for some dessert, and headed back that same day.

Just made it home. 8 days out and there were definitely a lot of ski boats even in the upper lake. My kids are in the same age range and we did a bit of hiking and a lot of swimming. We had a few docks to ourselves in the evenings, and when it got too crowded we hiked up a 1000 feet and watched the lake from the shade of the bitterbrush and scattered pines. We saw a few snakes (good and bad kinds), tons of bear sign, and had a cat chirp at us from the rocks above the dock at prince creek one evening. Probably singing along to Waylon and Willie. Don’t let the fast boats fool you, it’s wild country out here when the sun goes down! Come back in Fall and have it all to yourselves. Boat on lil Teal.

Dr. Bob, thanks for setting the record straight on the number of 29 footers built. It's clear I didn't do my homework on that one. But this much I'm sure of: spotted Al and Karen on Life of Riley, and Joan and Steve on C-Sharp at Sucia and Stuart Islands last week! And Roger on Sensei, just missed you--by a day.
