I AGREE WITH MY 83. FRED

I assume that you wanted the dry weight of the 22' in 1983. The other catalog has the weight of boat and motor at 1900# and the trailer at 1000#. I figure my boat with all the crap and additions will bring it up to 3000# +. Fred

To Jack in Alaska and Bill the Nerd, Thank you. I have a 1983 22' Angler. The pictures in the catalogue could be my boat. I purchased my C-Dory from a Coast Guard Officer who purchased it from the Harbor Master in Kodiak Alaska about seven to eight years ago. It had a little water damage on it...

Merv, I was referring to the rear end of my boat, not my a..... Fred

Dun, What insults? Fred

Pat and Fred, My prayers will be with Pat. As you know, I consider her to be one of my HEROS. For a gal with a few problems, she stayed in the thick of things. I told Sheila about Pat and the other problems and the wheel chair. I also told her about the great guy in her life who pushes the...

How about some pictures? Fred

Hi Folks, Sorry I missed the trip, but work calls. I thought our first Northeastern Trip was New Bedford? Then that was followed by the Lake Champlain trip and the Erie Canal trips? Did you see that Fred and Pat sold their C-Dory. I hope they get another. They are great folks to cruise...

Hi Folks, I have had the plugs both ways. It is now on the outside. Never (yet) had a problem. Fred

Fred and Pat, Are you going to purchase another C-Dory, so we can do the Erie Cannal when I sell the Inn? Fred

Cenmiii Thank you for the old brochure. I have a 1983 C-Dory, exactly as explained in the brochure. I have been looking for this for years. One thing I am going to do is blow up the line drawing, correct my additions, and color it. I then will put it in a picture frame and hang it on the wall...

Hi Folks, I have a question for Charlie and everybody else. If you fall out of your C-Dory, can you get back aboard? A big reason for deaths of boat owners is that they have no way to get back aboard if they fall overboard. THINK. Fred

nice cheeks!!!

Hi Folks, I use a bottle jack. It's about 8" tall and rises to about 14+". I always put a block of wood under it, and never leave the boat on the jack. I block the boat trailer up on blocks of wood and let the trailer down on the blocks. The blocks of wood are left over treated 4 by 4's and 2...

Kind of makes you feel good that the fellows in Washington are doing their job. Fred

I forgot something. If your bunkboards are carpet, put wax paper between the bunkboards and bottom when you finish. If you don't you will not be able to get the boat off the trailer. When you launch the boat, the trailer will stick to the boat. EXPERIENCE. Fred

Hi Folks, I have been painting the bottom of my 1983 Angler since I bought it about 2000. Here is how I do it. With a small hydraulic jack, I level the trailer on blocks of wood. I then jack up one side of the boat and put 2 by 4's between the bottom and the bunkboard. I then let it down...

Pat and Fred, I remember the Newark Dinner. One of the best "greasy spoons" It was a great breakfast. I am sorry to see that you are selling your boat. I hope that you are replacing it. Are you keeping the Roadtrek? My goal after InnKeeping is to tow my C-Dory with a Roadtrek. With the price...

Jim, Why don't you get your boat, launch it, park it next to your house, and do the things you have to to get the house back in shape? Fred

Simplicity, I just read your Blog. What a great trip. Happy Sailing. Fred
