    tough economic times

    I am not saying that innovation is dead, on the contrary I now have the Cdory that I wanted for years, I didn't get it by "not using my talents". If the creative class exists, it is because somewhere someone is using or buying the creation. Someone is laboring to produce it or sell it. It...

    Venture 23 data published on C-dory website

    The data on C-dory's site seems to me, is the same data that was in the brochure for the 23 Cape Cruiser Venture. I'll have to find the brochure to be sure, but I noticed that the data was suspect when I read it on the brochure. After hearing about the "Lawsuit" I kept the brochure on account...

    paper charts vs: navionic chips

    Someone help me, "How do you view the charts downloaded from NOAA?" We use the small flip-chart book (9x11) and GPS while underway and larger more detailed charts for planning. Especially while in the intercoastal it is nice to have the flip charts for a look ahead at markers landmarks and...

    Dinghies

    In my search for a dingy I came across the Kaboat, three models a 10ft. rated for 300lbs. a 12ft rated at 500lbs. and a 14ft for three passengers. The 10ft model would be perfect for my situation, except it is rated for only one passenger, that sucks...

    GULF COAST FLORIDA C-BRATS

    There is a small marina out on Anna Maria Island, "Captains Marina" they are reasonable, have a fenced area to park boat trailers etc. for a fee of course. The marina itself is quaint Island like laid back, close to shopping, they have a boat ramp, but recommend using the municipal ramp a...

    Which is better: 22' cruiser or 25' cruiser?

    I've only had my 22 for a couple of weeks, been out in the Gulf of Mexico twice, cruised the inland waterway twice, learned a little, and lived a-lot in those brief excursions. I have to tell you, which boat is a good question, one I took several years pondering. I looked only at boats that...

    Dec. 7th, 1941 Pearl Harbor.

    I can't help myself from piping in on this. We should never forget the sacrifice of the "Greatest Generation" There aren't many left, lets hope we learn from them while we have the chance. Too many take the freedom earned with their blood, for granted.

    BBQ Safety

    I like the versatility in Joe's setup, the table would have so many uses that it would be worth having even if you couldn't use a grill on it. Could be moved around for other purposes, or not. I like it!!!!!

    BBQ Safety

    I am trying to figure out what type of Grill and mounting hardware to install on our new 22 cruiser. Would appreciate tips, pros and cons of different systems. Also, is there a mounting system safe to use with canvas not stowed? What system do C-dory 22 owners use and feel secure with?
