Hi Pat I have seen some around here with Blue but none with green. Sorry about that .

Hi I appreciate the comments that I got. I will write to the regional office in Atlanta and not to the corporate office. I still think that Yamaha is wrong in their conclusion and their sentiment that this is my fault but like many have said they win the arguements easily. I will keep my...

Hi I appreciate the comments so far. My thoughts were that the corosion was inside the housing for the tilt trim. Nothing else was coroded so the seal must have been bad. At the marina we don't have electric for each boat and because we are on private property, a co-op we pay less for dockage...

Hi I had some questions about the Extended warranty that I have with my 90 horse Yamaha 4 stroke. I have a 22 foot C Dory bought in December 2005. The extended coverage is to 12/29/11. We live in North Fort Myers FL. In June we went to the boat to go fishing and the motor would not tilt down or...

Hi Boris Regarding your question on keeping the handles from falling off, I asked them how to do that. They said that I should get clear silicone caulk and put that in any place where their adhesive strip wasn't. I did that and it is on firm and tight. Hope that helps.

I was part of a long discussion on warranties earlier this year. Jeff's only reply to me was that they bought the future boats but would do nothing for those of us who bought from the original owners. I still think it is poor business but there is no changing his mind on that one. It is a shame...

Hi Thanks for the information so far. Glad to hear that I'm in the middle so to speak. I have played with the motor trim but if it is trimmed down that makes it easier to go through the waves. Trimming up doesn't really add much as near as I can tell. I try to stay away from the trim tabs too...

Hi I have a question about miles per gallon on my 2006 C-Dory. I have a 22 foot cruiser, 90 horse Yamaha 4 stroke. I live in North Fort Myers Fl, on the river and can cruise to the gulf of Mexico too. We have tides but not too much, perhaps 1 to 2 feet at most. I have estimated my milage as 3...

I decided to leave this topic alone for a while to see if anything happened. I wrote to Jeff on July 4the and the letter is below. I was thinking that it might be nice to get this over and done with. I think that my problem is small compared to the problems that dealers have with their stock of...

Hi I want to second a comment I read. This is getting ugly with the back and forth. I too believe that Jeff Lindhout should take the final step and let us all know what he plans to do. Dealers, owners and future owners would like to know what is going to happen. I still think that there is some...

Hi Well, I thought dealers were getting the short end of the stick and the post verifies that. I think it is hard enought being a dealer in this economy without adding more problems to the package. I see where legally Sea Sport has no liability but again, I believe that Sea Sport needs to...

I read with interest the comments about the warranties. I have been following this for some time now. You can make any number of anologies that back either side of the arguement and be "right". I think in the interests of good business sense it would be logical for Sea Sport to come to some...

Hi I read the comments that my problem affects all C-Dory owners and it does. I feel that if a company, buys a business and wants to sell new items and keep current owners happy they should come up with some solution that makes it a "win-win" for everyone. There can be compramises that help...

Hi again It is really interesting to see the opinions on the warranty qusetions. There is a lot to say for "self insuring" because you are sure it gets done in a timely manner. It is not good financially when a premium was paid for the boat in the first place to get the best long range value...

Hi I see a lot of interest in the warranty question and a lot of comments. There is a feeling that once the builder is out of business tough luck. Additionally, it is the general consensus that the dealers can't afford to do it all themselves. However, if Sea Sport wants to sell boats they...

Hi In response to the questions. The dealer is on my side and is hoping for an ok to fix the "cracks". They want to take off the motor and remove the black rubberized piece that covers the transom to make sure there is nothing in the transom itself. They have no problem fixing but are calling...

Charlie The cracks are not to large but at the dealer they say they want to take off the motor and the black over piece on the transom and make sure that the cracks there are only surface and that makes sense to me.

Hi Capt Matt I am the first owner and only owner. Bought it new. That is why I am frustrated. I have a warranty but no one to carry it out.

Hi The problem is "stress" cracks in the hull. There are some at the transom, a couple where the molded steps in the hull are and some on the front deck by the windshield. None are very large but need to be taken care of. Jeff at Sea Sport doesn't want to accept liability. Not a fun place to be.

Hi I appreciate the comments on the warranty question. I am in the middle right now trying to get my hull fixed. From what most of you are saying, I will be on my own. I don't think it makes good business sense on the part of Sea Sport but Jeff Lindhout told me to go to the dealer and the...
