    C-View II Oct, 2022 Lake Powell Cruise

    We spent Oct 3 - 7 at Lake Powell. The lake is 85 feet lower than when we were there in Oct 2019, but it is still a big lake - over 100 miles long and over 300' deep in the channel. We launched at the new State Line Auxiliary launch ramp as the other ramps are out of the water. We spent the...

    Gel Coat for Repair of a Gouge

    I'd like to repair two small gouges in the darkish blue trim on my 2006 25' C-Dory. I could mix up a batch using a repair kit, but if I could obtain a small quantity of gel coat which is an exact match, life would be good. I contacted the current builder and they mentioned they currently use...

I'm thinking about storing it under the floorboards underneath the table, but I'm wondering if other C-Brats have an alternative solution. I...

    Window Adventures

    Part of the restoration of our 1990 C-Dory 22' Cruiser involved replacing the fixed center window with an opening one. With our generally warm (hot) weather in the Phoenix area I was certain that we want as much airflow through the cabin as we can possibly get. I got quotes from...

    No longer lurking

    After a couple of years of getting educated by reading this excellent site, we've purchased a C-Dory! My wife and I purchased Ron's 1990 22' Cruiser which he kept at Channel Islands Harbor in California. We picked it up and trailered it down to San Diego, rented a slip over the Labor Day...
