    Also, Bob, I got a call on my cell from a blocked number, tried to answer but no connection. If that was you, I'll be back in US tomorrow. Robert

    Cruising from Gulfport MS to Apalachicola this week...

    I'll be in my Whaler Montauk, rigged to camp-cruise. Looking for a few C Brats along the way! I'd really like to get a good look at a few CD22s. I plan to make it to Wefings by Friday or Saturday just to have a look around, then head back west. Just a solo trip since the kids are in school...

    Where can I see a CD25 and CD22 side by side?

    Thanks all! I might try to make the Mississippi gathering.

    New C Brat, looking for the " perfect" CD25!!!!!!

    So the way I read this is, rain water is getting through the deck hatch in the cockpit? The fuel tank is located under the floor of the cockpit? I had a tank leak in my Albin 25, I had it pulled, steamed, repaired and epoxy coated after pressure testing. That tank was very easy to remove, just...

    Where can I see a CD25 and CD22 side by side?

    I'm in Dallas, not a lot of C Dory population here! Anyone have a few good pics of the two side by side, inside and out?

    OK, how about the most common problems found in the CD25? Leaks? Blisters? Water intrusion in hull? Leaking/bulging fuel tanks?

    New C Brat, looking for the " perfect" CD25!!!!!!

    That's a pretty pricey repower! As Thataway said, fly by wire is in fact the way of the future. I'm an airline pilot, so I'm very familiar with the systems and their operational reliability, at least in the aviation industry. I doubt this technology will trickle down to the 90 hp any time soon...

    New C Brat, looking for the " perfect" CD25!!!!!!

    I've seen the new Evinrude G2, it looks awesome. As far as I can tell, they start at the 250 HO, probably more engine than I'd want to strap on a CD25. And I bet they're very proud of them $$$$$$$ For my region, a Yamaha or Mercury engine would have the most dealer support, but I plan to Loop...

    New C Brat, looking for the " perfect" CD25!!!!!!

    Thanks beermanpdx! More questions now. What year did they start putting water tank in the stern? I've only run twins in a 34' Silverton, never a small outboard boat. I may be leaning towards a 175-200 single if it improves the overall performance of the boat. Will the newer outboards talk to...

    Tow vehicle advice sought

    The old adage, "better to have it an not need it than need it and not have it" comes to mind! Any mid or full size pickup with 4wd will make launching and retrieving much easier anywhere you go. Limited slip rear differential is good, but if the ramp is slimy, you'd be much better off in 4wd...

    New C Brat, looking for the " perfect" CD25!!!!!!

    I remember seeing a chart that showed actual weights for typical cruising items on here somewhere, I just can't find it now. Boat, motor/motors, trailer, 100 gals gas at aprox 6.8 lb per gal, I'm guessing will come in about 6500-7000lbs? My 1/2 ton is rigged to tow 9,200#, so I have no...

    New C Brat, looking for the " perfect" CD25!!!!!!

    I was thinking that 2.5 mpg at 20kts would be about right, thanks Thataway! I'd be happy with the 23 Venture or the CD22, but I have two teenage daughters and a girlfriend who really like the separate head/shower! I have no intention of reviving the twins/single debate, but what cruise/WOT...

    New C Brat, looking for the " perfect" CD25!!!!!!

    Hi all! New member here, I've recently sold my beloved Albin 25 diesel cruiser that I was Looping aboard. I'm now in the market for a CD 25 to continue The Loop. The Albin burned 1/2 GPH of diesel at 7.5kts.....that's 15nmpg in still water. Awesome mileage, but since I'm still working, I need...
