Hey Terry--- Good idea, I figured that EL & BILL were locking through lockport by now, did you sign up yet? See you in Sept. Rich on Don Quixote, (still fighting windmills and chasing rainbows)

Hi. Roger I see El and Bill are on the sign up sheet, but I think they are probably already through the canal and on their way to the Canadian canals. Do you know of any good places to launch besides Seneca State Park? They have a good ramp and parking but are a several miles south of the...

Have we come to an exact date for the Erie canal cruise in Sept and an agreed upon starting point? I've been out of town, but I noticed on the c-dogs sign up sheet there seems to be about the same number as a month ago, about 6, and we have less than 60 days left. My boat is presently in storage...

Hi-John I am having the same problem getting someone to install a decent canvas top. They are all either too busy or don't return phone calls, I had one fellow, (highly recommended) that came to the boat , spent over 2 hrs. measuring, discussing, & plotting, gave me a price that I agreed upon...

Yes, does seem like a good deal, even without a trailer. When I was looking last year the cheapest used ones I found were in the high teens to the mid 20's. I wonder what this boat would have brought in the c-dory classifieds? Rich

Tom my schedule is fairly flexible except I have to come from Calif. by way of Florida, so I will try to be there early to lend a hand or to provide ground transportation for those needing a shuttle service. Rich

I have a 16' cruiser in storage in Melbourne, Fla. that I may consider selling, or you can just take a look to give you a better idea of the quality and layout.- Rich

Whatever color is finally decided upon for the boat trim, shouldn't C-Brats lettering be in the same color? To make it all blend in. Just a thought.

Ditto- for Elco Marine in Santa Ana, Calif., Steve & Mick go out of their way to provide you with information on new and used c-dories.

I'm presently having a special Bimini made with full screen sides so I won't have to worry about all those pesty bugs & black flies, it will also extend over the motors so the inside should stay a little drier. Rich

I'm planning on cruising from Kingston, Ontario to Ottawa,Ontario, this year and was wondering if any member has been on the Rideau canal system or has any local knowledge about marinas and campgrounds.

I totally agree with the comments regarding the staff at c-dory, I stopped by last week because I was unable to locate the correct wiper blade for my 1991 16' cruiser, the young gentleman I spoke to, I believe his name was Buck, went out of his way to help locate one and then took the time to...
