    Radar archs

    Factory quoted me a price for the high radar arch for 22 Cruiser of $830 four days ago. This did not include packaging and shipping (and probably not the rod holders, either).

    flrockytop's superloop crossing big bend

    In the middle of his crossing last night he was kind enough to PM me about the canvas frame on C-Lover! Thanks, Roger! Safe travels,

    Just Bought my First Motorcycle!

    This is great advice, my scariest moment ever was starting to lean into a left turn (with blinker on) on a quiet residential street in Old Towne Alexandria (VA) when a car passed me from behind on the left within inches. About the same time (~35 years ago) I did a summer internship with the...

    C-Dory with extended roof

    OK, I have spent days (weeks) staring at Brazo's canvas frame and trying to think of all the pros and cons of such a setup. Today I had a new (perhaps crazy) idea. Would it be possible to mount a very short and small removable davit arm to the side of the frame that could be used to raise and...

    C-Dory with extended roof

    Thank you, Robert, that is what I wanted to know! I emailed Blue Coral Towers this morning and hope to hear back from them soon.

    C-Dory with extended roof

    I thought I would resurrect this 18-month old thread to ask: 1) has anyone else done a top like this? 2) if Roger (C-Lover) and Robert (Brazo) were going to do it again, would you make any changes to the design? 3) Would any design difference be necessary to fit our 2006 (with low roof) instead...

    Camper Canvas-forward leaning main bow?

    Thank you all for your comments. I think you have convinced me to go with the more traditional design, although we might try a mock-up too just to see if it could work (as Les suggested). Nonetheless, I don't see any significant potential advantages to make it a "must-have" kind of thing. The...

    Cold Water

    We do a lot of work in early spring and late fall and are required to wear at least Mustang MS2075 or MS2175 anti-exposure coveralls. But these are difficult to actively work in, and if you fall in, you still get wet. Several years ago I switched to Kokatat Super Nova paddling suits for my crew...

    Camper Canvas-forward leaning main bow?

    I am interested in having camper canvas made for our 22 Cruiser and need some advice. About six weeks ago I made up a photo album of camper canvas I liked from your photos. I relied heavily on Foggy Dew, Valkyrie, Berta’s Boy, and others, and thank you all (we decided against the fixed...

    HATCH COVERS IN BERTH

    Hello Tex - Did you go with the same hatches others have used (listed below)? I am about to order hatches and tackle this myself. Thanks, CH From previous posts: Port and starboard side hatches: So-Pac Access Hatch SPA-30205 with 13 3/4" x 23 2/4" OD, 9 3/4" x 19 1/2" ID from Defender Forward...

    Is that Dielectric grease?!

    Oops! I guess it is new copper eye shadow she is wearing for New Years! My bad. Happy New Year to all!

    Charter or Rental

    Before buying our C-Dory, I was interested in a charter too, and was willing to fly/drive somewhere to do it. No luck. But has swapping boats among C-Brats for a week every been discussed on the forum? (I have seen posts about rentals and all owners said no) Boats are personal things, but I...

    Bow Access on 22' Cruiser?

    Thank you. Have not seen the boat, but did not see the berth illustrated on their web site. I might just have missed it .....

    Bow Access on 22' Cruiser?

    Important work, and thanks for doing a good job and keeping our kids safe. As you know, it doesn't take much of a north or south wind to make the Lake quite rough, and you should probably add a C-Dory 25 to your list of boats to look at, too. If you are going to use the boat mostly as a day...

    Bow Access on 22' Cruiser?

    Is that you in the Safeboat with four 300 hp turbocharged Verados?! Always wanted a ride in that thing, but to get one I would have to do something bad. Actually, I think it belongs to a different agency (with the green stripe on the hull) and they have all the toys, maybe you have a...

    Bow Access on 22' Cruiser?

    The Ocean Pro is a beautiful boat, no doubt about it. But it is a different boat. Best I can tell from their web site, there is no sleeping berth. For a day boat, the Ocean Pro would be awesome. For a weekend or overnight boat in some of those beautiful Lake Champlain anchorages, I'd rather be...

    Canadian Customs for Boats

    As a side note, remember that anchoring even a few hundred feet inside either Country without checking in first is considered illegal entry and may be treated as a very serious offense. This includes something as seemingly innocent as making a short one-tank dive on a shipwreck. Since some...

    Canadian Customs for Boats

    If you have time, have you thought about getting an I-68 or NEXUS card? If all parties on your vessel have one, you can report to US Customs by phone when you come back across the border and may not need to report in person. It really helps around here where the US border crossings on land are...

    First Trip to SoCal - what should we see?

    Wow! That is some bad traffic! We will probably fly in to LA, rent a car, and try to get out fairly quickly. We won't spend the whole week in Anaheim, but explore to the north, and just come back down before the conference starts. Thanks again for all the helpful hints and suggestions! CH
