Colby, look forward to seeing you at Friday Harbor. Patty and I been going to FH as long as there has been a gathering there - looking at the Cruises and Events photo album, it seems that was 2008, but it might have been earlier. We always hang around in the San Juans to cruise for a bit after...

Wonderful photos, Jody!

On the contrary, that is what "dilution is the solution" in deep water means, it gets emptied overboard, with some careful attention to which way the wind is blowing! Victoria, B.C., discharged raw sewage to the Strait of Juan de Fuca from 1894 until 2020, when they finally got a sewage...

Got to seriously disagree, Colby! A composting toilet is the perfect solution for cruisers. We have had ours for 17 years now, and cannot conceive of using a standard marine head or PortaPotti for any significant cruising. Initial cost was covered by the credit from C-Dory for deleting the...

Deleted. Accidentally posted before finished composing!

Patty here. We put an Airhead in our 25' boat during construction in 2005. We still have it and have loved it. We took 8 months to cruise the Great Loop, used it every day, emptied the solids only 4 times.

We both made it back. And so did the dog and the cat! The link is in the signature...

For those interested in seeing what this boat looks like, here you go! Seriously, comparable boats (just based on available information) are being listed for $10K or more than this boat and seem to be sold in short order.

Excellent narrative and photos! You and the kids will remember this for a long, long time! I am however really surprised at how many miles you are choosing to run per day. You must have a "schedule." On our 2017 Great Loop, 40 miles was a long day for us! Once you rounded Cape Caution,there was...

Your DoriDaze photo album is empty. No photos?

Looks like SeaSport copied the design of the C-Dory!

Jay, This is an epic thread that I think people will be coming back to read years from now! Thanks! Pat

This boat was re-fit at EQ, and did the Inside Passage in 2005. There are a few photos in the San Juan Islands. Here is a higher quality image of the first photo I posted. I have emailed Aiviq for the back story on this boat! I hope he responds!

OK, last post by owner was in 2019, and here is a better photo!

You need to have photos in this post! And does it include a trailer? But honestly, folks, unless this is a "project" boat, it is a STEAL at this price!

Think about your power requirements beyond lighting! The biggest power hog is not lights - LED lights are really inconsequential, we have converted to LED for interior lighting and our anchor light (it was just an LED drop in replacement for the incandescent bulb). The biggest power requirement...

If C-Dory would re-create this boat but with a big outboard instead of the diesel inboard, it would be a killer at Boat Shows! Does anyone know where this boat is now and who owns it? Sorry for the low resolution, I grabbed the image off the random images on the entry page and re-scaled it...

coolest c-dory

If you have not been there, and if you have time, another fabulous spot is English Camp at Garrison Bay. Google "the pig war" for this war, in which the only shot fired was the one that killed the pig!

Colby, glad you enjoyed Stuart Island and your hike to Turn Point! Although we have been back to Stuart Island a number of times, I think based on my photos in the Daydream album, the last time we hiked to Turn Point was in 2014. Also pretty sure with my knees, that will be the last time! Here...
