Boat is sold and it’s staying in the Great Lakes! New owner has some fun cruise destinations planned.

Sale pending.

Hey Bob, Thanks for the interest in my 25 but I’m afraid standard 22 wouldn’t work for me since I’m on the tall side at 6’6”. The 22 that I owned for 10 years was a high top and was a perfect fit. Bob

I bought this C-Dory 2 years ago, from its original owner, after looking for a 25 for 2 years after selling my 22. It’s a fresh water boat that has been stored inside and has only 80 hours on it! Looks like new! Because of COVID and some health issues I have only put 8 hours on it in the last 2...

Thought I should update this ad. Sold a month ago. After owning a 22 for 10 years and sold 2 years ago, I finally found a pristine fresh water only 25 Cruiser with only 71 hours! Looking forward to the Spring. Bob

Just ran across this ad in the Cleveland Craigslist for a 1990 Angler with trailer and 70hp outboard for $3500. Ad says it's been sitting outside for at least 10 years. There are a few pictures and it looks like a project. Bob

I agree with Bob that sailing a fast multihull is sailing at it's best. I built and sailed an F-25c all carbon trimaran for 11 years like the one that won the Race to Alaska. I have never done anything more exciting than driving a tri at 20+ knots at night with a crew of 3 in 6 ft seas with full...

I installed a pair of Lewmar standard aluminum port lights on my 22 about 6 years ago with no problems to date. The screens are pretty cheap but the port lights themselves are well made. Bob

That boat has been listed off and on Yachtworld. Com for the past 5 or 6 months. It also was listed on Ebay at least 8 times with no bids over $32,000. After many calls someone finally returned my call last Oct. and said that they had many interested buyers at $39,900 and the price was firm. It...

Currently traveling in Mexico and loving it, but with a 5th wheel not our C-Dory 22. A more realistic travel time from border to Belize is 36+ hours of actual driving time plus the toll roads are very expensive as is fuel. Bob

I sprayed my dull and oxidized gelcoated fiberglass motor home with a high quality 2 part clear polyurethane and 6 years later it is still as shiny as the day I painted it! It sits outside and has never has been waxed. Like any paint job, prep is everything. I dewaxed the surface and wet sanded...

I also ask the seller if I could view the boat since I live in MI but got no response. He lists the 115 Mercury as a 4 stroke but if you look at the picture it says "Saltwater" on the cowl, which I believe is the 2 stroke model. Beware!!!

Look on E-Bay. There are hundreds of cluster LED replacement bulbs that plug right into the existing fixture for just a few dollars apiece. I replaced all of mine 3 years ago with cheap bulbs from E-Bay and not one of them has failed yet. Bob

Are porta potties legal or must you have a holding tank with a deck pump out when you anchor within the park boundaries? Bob

My 22 came from Y-Landing and when I went to transfer the 6 year Suzuki warrenty from the first owner we found out that Y-Landing never paid for or regestered the warrenty with Suzuki. They said they would take care of it and then stopped taking my calls. Bob
