thataway,,,, Thanks for that! I looked at photos and they made me want one more! Larry

Clay, Your too kind, I would take you up on it and buy you a steak. However, I am about 1700 miles away and I don't own a Leer Jet! :)

Middle of Iowa. I have experience with a 242LS Formula. I do not necessarily want to rent an individuals boat. Heck I would notm rent mine out either.

Heres the question. Would be nice to rent a C-Dory to see if I like it before taking $60-80K out of my bank or getting a loan for the boat tax breaks. Lookng for feedback on this. I can travel east, or west if anyone knows how I could do this. Larry

I agree with all the comments on the Bronco (NOW) thank you. I am better off staying with a Yukon or Tahoe. RodWest made a great comment on towing. Thats the one we always forget. Downhill towing is bad if your tow vehicle length and weight is smaller than the towed trailer and load. I don't...

"Do you have a relationship with the person who built this website and easy to read blog?" I do not, I found it on while looking on the C-Dory website.

Thanks for the grand welcome Tybo Probably no kids for any overnighters. But maybe three grown men at times if we go after salmon on Lake Michigan. however, that is where a canvas top for the aft will come in handy as we'll just set up a cot. Ill be 70 young years next year and my hunting and...

I have been dreaming of a C-Dory for a two decade's or more. Seems life always got in the way. But as they say "family always comes first" and I would not have it any other way! I live in the heart of Iowa surrounded by corn and bean fields. Nearest reservoir is 20 minutes away and the...
