Just saw an article about this new boat (Reflex ReefRunner) in Boating Magazine. 25’ long, more of a day boat layout. Looks like an Angler 19’s big brother. $84,900 with a 200 hp motor seems downright reasonable nowadays! Only one dealer in California. Maybe something to watch...

The Everglades is a great area. Be sure to complete the new Everglades Boating Education Program before entering the park. Here is a link... https://www.nps.gov/ever/planyourvisit/ ... rogram.htm Lots of shallow water, so take your time and enjoy the park!

C-Dorys are all about function over form. Reliability and resale are what drew me to my C-Dory... just like my Toyota Tundra. Ford, Dodge, and GM have lots more bells and whistles, but in the long run Toyota is your best investment. I found my 2019 Tundra Crew Cab used with 345 miles on it...

Just scheduled a full detail on my 19! Gotta take care of my investment! I hear it’s value is going up!

I have an Angler 19 also. I bought a Garelick tilting bracket and a standard shaft Honda 5 hp kicker. With the bracket up and the kicker tilted up, the motor is high and dry. I have plenty of depth with the bracket tilted down. I think a long shaft might drag when tilted up. Good luck with...

There is definitely a learning curve to trimming a C-Dory. I have an 19 Angler. The boat gets very tail happy at speeds above 20 knots if you don’t bring the tabs full up. Changes in wind, waves, weight distribution, and turns will keep your trim fingers in great shape. I don’t trim the motor...

I spoke to the seller in February while I was on Captiva. I was going to look at the boat but weather didn’t cooperate before we headed home. Everything seemed legit when I spoke to him. He gave me his address and I could see the boat sitting on the lift using Google earth.

Looks like “Stern Bracket -Swivel Case” page. Good luck!

Great gathering this year! Thanks to everyone that helped make it a success! Had an interesting end to the outing... Thursday morning I was dragging and felt worse as the day went on. I was supposed to head to the Gulf for a trip to the Everglades. I decided to pull the boat and head back...

Here is the reference I used during my research... Scroll down the page and click on “Shaft Length Guidelines” in sub menu. https://onlineoutboards.com/collections ... oard-motor

I added a kicker to my 2005 Angler 19 last Spring. I went with a Honda 5 hp - standard shaft. I also used a Garelick tilting motor bracket. This allowed me to use the standard length shaft model. The tilting bracket also gets the kicker completely out of the water when not in use. I like...

Glad you found a warm dry place. I feel for your dock line fears. I’ve spent far too many hours getting my lines just right... Bathrooms are underrated as sleeping quarters! Here’s a pro tip - position your self directly under the hand dryer. When you get cold, that warm air sure feels...

We were cruising north on ICW today and spotted a CDory heading south between Boca Grande Pass and Cabbage Key. Just wondering who it was?

Finished the series. I think their lack of sponsors and funding was a direct result of their duct tape and bailing wire approach to the trip. Who would want their name on the boat when it hits the news... I still can’t believe they did the trip with only the default Garmin world map on their...

First, sorry if this is old news on this site... I bumped into a series on Amazon Prime. It is home video quality of two guys who take a flats boat to Europe in 2018. Yes, a flats boat! I can’t say if they make it, I’ve only watched three episodes. But, I can’t stop watching! Let’s just say...

Heading back to the Hontoon gathering with my Angler 19. Time to learn some new CDory tricks from the pros! Since I don’t have a lot of room on the boat, I just booked a room at the Riviera Resort and Marina about a mile away. Can’t wait!

I’m always impressed with the breadth and depth of knowledge on this site. Sorry I don’t have a more challenging question! I want to purchase two round fenders for holding my bow off while docking and in locks. I’m thinking I would hang them from the rear stantion for the bow rail. My side...

Thanks for the suggestions. I will first replace my bilge pump hose and do some testing. That sounds like a good place to start, especially with a fifteen year old boat. I wish I had thought of it when I replaced all my fuel lines and fuel tanks! I’m sure I will raise the outlet a few inches...

I have noticed that the outlet for my bilge pump is sitting at water level. I added a kicker motor and a second house battery since I bought the boat. I also have a 70 quart cooler that sits near the transom. The last time I launched the boat on a steep ramp I got 5+ gallons in the back...

I purchased this cover for my CDory 19 Angler. I have a Garmin 18x Radar on a 6” mount. The cover hangs below the gunnels all the way around. I bought one foot longer than my boat and it goes over the motor also. I can leave my Bimini folded back and it holds up the cover nicely. I store...
