    Another Leaky 25

    Just finish reading C-Dory warranty. Pretty self explanatory, if the factory installed it they should fix it . Providing the owner uses common sense , there is a 5 year limited warranty that is included when buying a new C-Dory . SEARAM

I can cruise sitting at the helm without hands on the wheel most...
