This looks like a well equipped, well kept and well priced C-Dory. Best of luck with sale, should go quickly!

Good morning, all. I am beginning to hatch a plan for summer 2027 to haul myself, my camper, and my Cape Cruiser up north for some PNW exploration. Will you help me noodle through some options? I basically threw a dart that landed on Brown's Bay Resort, which seems like a good home base for a...

My spitball estimate of what I *would* do was in the 100-200 hours/year range. I was surprised when my first year came out with so few hours. This second year has started off a whole lot better!

Good morning fellow C-Brats. I've had my boat about a year, and I use it all the time. Well, maybe not "all the time," but I feel like spend a lot of time with it. My hour meter disagrees. My hour meter says I spent 30 hours running the boat in the last 12 months. I would have thought it was...

It looks like the dealer took the ad down. Did the OP make the deal ??

Another rec for Angola. I have been in contact with Richard and Stella at Angola recently (like two weeks ago) and they seem like the real deal best answers. They knew my boat, and knew what questions to ask to customize to fit, etc. I have not made my order yet, but I am gonna.

Pretty sure that's called the "Commuter" model. Is it a seat on the starboard side as well?, or does it have a sink and counter?

Thanks for taking me along, John, via your postings on Find Penguins. Well written and witty, great reading for those of us stuck at home and daydreaming!

Thanks, Colby, for documenting your trip and sharing it with us. The BC coast is a natural habitat for boats like ours, and I am glad to see C-Traveler in its element! Great reports and pix on the FindPenguins site.

Seems like that observation might lead one toward buying new.

The kicker on my 2006 Cape Cruiser came to me on the starboard side, with the swim step on the port side. I am a noob, and therefore comfortable asking a basic question like, "why does kicker location make a diff, port or stbd, other than convenience vis a vis existing swim step?" Can anyone...

Very interesting. Low speed maneuvering is one of this newbie's biggest challenges. Thanks for posting! Sounds like a much more effective solution than the fretting and colorful language tools I am using now.

This looks like an outstanding value.

Congrats, Administrators, on the transition to the new site! It sounds like it was a Herculean effort, I am glad to see it is up and running. I hope it doesn't keep you tooooo busy chasing down bugs, etc. The point of this post is that The System offered to give me a trophy for my first post...

All: This seems like as good a place as any to post a reminder that there is a "Tip Jar" at the top left of the Home page to keep the site going. If you haven't jangled the tip jar in awhile, please consider doing so. :D
