Cruising from Oregon City to Depoe Bay it is about 200 miles. We used 85 gallons over the 13 hour cruise, averaging about 15 knots. We used 6.5 gph average over the length of the trip. It is about 100 miles on the Willamette and Columbia rivers and 100 miles in the ocean. We were fully loaded...

That would be our "no name" C-Dory 25 that is now permanently moored at Depoe Bay. We sailed it around from Sportcraft Marina last month. Have taken her out fishing for sea bass and chinook a few times. Just love the way she handles in the ocean. On the trip from Oregon City to Depoe Bay we...

Thanks so much for the thread on the HIN#. We recently got our HIN #. It is CDO25082F405. I thought it was just some random info. Now it has meaning. You folks are the greatest. We are hoping to take delivery sometime in early October. Still need bottom paint and window covers. All the...

Hi Jack, thanks for the reply. Behind the excitement there is a certain trepidation about the trailering part. It looks so darn long sitting there on the trailer I have to admit it makes me a bit uneasy. Wendy and I used to own a 24 foot Prowler that we hauled all over Oregon and Washington...

Steve and Wendy Hausotter would like 2 in dark blue. Thanks for doing this.

Hi, I went to Sportcraft Marina (Oregon City, OR) on Friday to see what progress had been made on our boat. The Honda 90's had finally arrived and had been mounted. (Seems that the 90 is a very popular motor so one of them came from Florida. Lucky on the timing considering all the hurricanes...

Hi, Depoe Bay Oregon is considered one of the more difficult bars to cross in order to exit the harbor. The USCG has "rough bar" warning lights posted at the exit to the harbor. As long as the lights are not lit, there are no restrictions. If the lights are lit, then you must call to determine...

I would appreciate any feedback you folks might have on VHF radios. We will be predominantly running off the coast of Oregon and the San Juan islands, possibly even over to Victoria, BC. So many options and models, and so little experience to truly recognize what is needed versus what is fluff...

Hi, I dont know if you are the person who manages the web site, but thought with a handle like Head Nerd I would give you a hollar. When entering the data into the profile fields, it doesnt have 2005 as an option. Also, what is the difference between a 25 Cruiser and a 25 Cruise Ship? Thanks, Steve

We recently purchased a blue 25 Cruiser with twin Honda 90's and many of the options. We dont take delivery for 4 to 6 weeks. Still working out details such as the name for our C-Dory, etc. However we are at the point of selecting electronics. We will be primarily operating out of Depoe Bay...
