    Hand Holds

    Thanks John, That last method sounds like a really neat way to do the job, I guess you could continue the runs aft along the edge of the roof. I already have my "grab" bars though, so guess it will be SS on Fan-C-Dory. We don't suffer much from cold, so we'll probably be OK.

    Hand Holds

    Well, at various times the old bus floated from Stockholm to Helsinki - in a ferry, and then also drove (on "roads") from Finland thru Sweden to Norway. I wish we had owned the Fan-C-Dory back then (some fantastic areas) - but we were lucky to own the bus.

    Welcome Byron ! You need to post your note down under "C-Dory Boats Wanted", it will get special attention there, and not be lost under the "Gatherings" heading. The C-Dory is a great "tourist" boat, dry and comfortable. Good luck in your search.

    Hand Holds

    I don't know if the Finlander kids knew anything about Rudolf, or not, but there was sure some finger pointing driving the old VW bus back to Norway with the horns (antlers) strapped to the front end.

    Hand Holds

    Moose - those cost WAY more than I can afford !! I have an old set of Reindeer horns (antlers ?) that I got in Finland, will they do ? These things are easy to find once you figure out that they are "grab rails" not "hand holds" :oops: . Course my Grandma always said not to grab, now what ...

    Lake Champlain trip - boat ramp needed with secure parking

    We launched in Plattsburgh last year at Wilcox Docks. We then left Fan-C-Dory at the Plattsburgh Boat Basin. Rented a car for the weekend, took the truck & trailer down to Seneca Lake Park, then went back to Plattsburgh for the cruise down the lake & canals. The marina there in Plattsburgh, or...

    2004 Marineco/AFI wiper blade refills?

    Here are some Bosch, course they are for a back window - you may have to reverse the wires on the motor - or something. I thought the old VW were 12", but it looks like they were 11". http://www.autothing.com/Products/Wiper%20Blades/Bosch%20Hindsight%20Wiper%20Blades.htm

He, Larry Anderson, said he knew a couple that did the same thing, they had a little boat they called 'Wild Blue'. Who'd a thunk it ? Said to...

    My swim platform wouldn't hold it - for long anyway. I like the Garhauer, but think it is really to limited in usability. What is the fun of putting a crane on a boat, if you can't turn the boat over with it ?! :D You get used to things when you work with tools like these -...

    Has anyone rigged a C-Dory with a mast/boom arrangement such as the one shown in the 4th photo on the following page? http://web.mac.com/islandrovercanada/iweb/Site/THE%20BOAT.html Interesting, looks like an ideal way for old folks to handle the dinghy, and how about a riding sail ? I have a...
