This is great news, especially since I have been told numerous times that XXX marina would not lift a cat in their sling. Thanks for all the info! I am VERY glad to hear that it CAN go on a lift and get painted for a decent cost. The dealer is quoting around $1700 for it out of the factory...

Like many others I am planning on keeping my TC255 in the water 24x7x365. In fact, I am not even going to get a trailer (as I really have no where to store it or way to tow it). Getting bottom paint on the first time from the factory is no problem; the question I have is how in the world do...

Yes! C-Brats is great place to say the least! (THANKS!!) It was great to go through the TC255 in various stages and reflect back to them all the information that I have gotten from here and being on the boat. It was amazing to have Rich ask the various tech/engineers when I brought up a...

So I called the Auburn C-Dory factory this morning asking if I could get a tour anytime soon, in which the response was 'Of course. Come on over." So that is exactly what I did and I must say if I was not thoroughly impressed with C-Dory before today, I definitely am now. Aside from the...

Well thanks, I only had two choices to worry about, now I have to worry about 3! :D I do appreciate all the info. Would have never looked at Suzukis. Thanks again, Chris

Mercury Verado or Honda engines (2x150HP)? I know Mecury vs Honda is often a question that is similar to asking about religion or politics, but I am truly interested in the general feel of some TomCat (or other!) owners. The Mecury engine seems to be a 'bit' better on the actual performance...

Thanks all for the info! (Sorry for the delay, was out of town) Maybe I will get a smaller one afterall. Was worried about not having a craft large enough to carry all people, but that may be a unnecessary worry. Dreamer - what size and weight is your dinghy? A 6 footer also? And to top it...

Thanks Matt. I have been debating on a smaller dinghy but leaning away from this as I will most likely always have four people on board; the darn 'what if' factor keeps coming up. If I am unable to find a suitable place, it may just be a 6 footer. Speaking of, will you keep the motor on this...

Hello all! I have been lingering around for quite some time now, but getting close (in 2008!) to finally getting a TomCat so wanted to engage a bit more personally now. What dinghy do most of you TomCat owners have, and more importantly where the heck do you stow it? I was thinking something...
