    Resealing required?

    I have been nervous about any holes in the hull since I read about the balsa core rotting out in C-Dory transoms. So now, I'm wondering about the fuel tank cover board the seller removed to siphon fuel before my 2005 C-Dory 22 Cruiser went on the barge to Alaska. Similar to this one...

    Hull Differences

    You can call the manufacturer in Tacoma; they are very friendly and helpful. They told me that the newer C-Dories have a foam core in the transom vs. the balsa core formerly used. I'm not sure when that changed or what else is different. Ben Smith Salesman Master Marine Boat Center 360-336-2176...

    charter plotter suggestion

    I was trying to stay under $1000. The last time I put electronics in a boat was 25 years ago. I had a depth sounder that plotted a line for the bottom and occaisionally showed something like a fish in the water column. I used paper charts and eventually a hand-held GPS for navigation. ALL of the...

    I finally have my C-Dory!

    I flew to Montana Friday and completed the purchase of a 2005 C-Dory 22 Cruiser, sight unseen on the recommendation of a good marine surveyor. I've never done such a thing before! Today I rented a U-Haul pickup and towed itt from storage in Shelton, WA to the TOTE Maritime freight terminal in...

    Good shoot-through-hull transducer location?

    I am buying a 2005 22 Cruiser, and getting conflicting reports about whether there are uncored portions of the hull when I could install an in-hull transducer. Has anyone found a good location with no core? I mistakenly put this question in the C-Dory Boats for Sale forum, thanks to Barry Rietz...

    Brat Map not loading correctly

    Same problem here. First I got the Can't Load Google Maps Properly message. Too bad, it would be a nice feature.

    Hello from a new C-Dory Owner . . . finally!

    What did you pick for a chartplotter and why? Where did you mount the transducer?
