    Vail CDory 25 at a lower price

    I want to lower the price on my CDory Cruiser. I think I was a bit high when I asked for $85000. Since it doesn't have much in the way of electronics, and needs some TLC, it may be worth somewhere in the $70s. I am willing to entertain lower offers. I'm sure we can work something out. It's a...

    diagram of layout

    I have not been able to locate a diagram that shows the location of all the things that are below the deck in my CDory. I saw one for a Marinaut. It was just great. It showed where the water tanks, gas tanks, etc were located and would be very helpful if only it were for my CDory 25 (2009). Does...

    fish finder

    I still have not placed my fishfinder into the CDory. I was reading about how to do it and terms were mentioned that I don't understand: What and where do I find an "electronic buss"? Is that one of the many electrical connections located on the starboard side of the vberth at the back of the...

    vent on the bottom?

    I was underneath the hull yesterday installing a keel guard when I noticed a little oval shaped vent looking thingy on the bottom of the boat (Situated I think close to where the cockpit and cabin meet). It was too far away to see clearly and I was already tired of laying on the ground. I...

    anchoring and bad weather

    I will be going to Lake Powell later this month alone. I have been there once before in the CDory, but I anchored overnight in the bay at Dangling Rope and spent the next night tied to the dock at Rainbow Bridge (I know, I know, you're not supposed to do that...but I didn't know that until the...

    applying a Keel Guard

    I decided to apply a Keel Guard to my CD25. I am no spring chicken and the preparation took me quite awhile and lasted over several days. I finally arrived at the moment of truth this morning. It was time to break the little vials of stuff they give you and spread it over the keel areas that I...

    struggling with cabin windows

    Hello out there... I am having quite a struggle when I try to open my 2 large cabin windows. They just don't slide easily. I know they need to be snug so that they are waterproof, but it takes both hands and a standing or kneeling position to get them open. I thought about rubbing soap on the...

    removing hot water heater

    Would any of you be up for listing the steps for removing my hot water heater from my C-Dory 25? My normal MO is to just barge ahead, but I am concerned I will electrocute myself, or end up with water running in places it shouldn't be... Here's hoping... Amanda

    CDory rubbing on wheel covers

    Hello good folks...Merry Christmas I am having a problem with my EZLoader trailer. When I load up the C-Dory 25 onto the trailer, it rides slightly to the left, up tight against the wheel-well covers and the trailer side board. The boat is not touching the wheel-well covers or the side board on...

    Did I drain the water system?

    I am a bit intimidated by the water heater. I wanted to drain the water system and so I just turned on the hot and cold water faucets at the sink and operated the toilet until no more water came out. Then I hooked up a sewer hose I have to the septic and flushed all the sewage at an RV...

    removing the plug...

    When I bought my C-Dory 25 the mechanic showed me the plug at the back. He said it was in very tight and I should just leave it alone. I check to make sure it is there and tight before launching each time, but lately I got to wondering why it was there if I'm supposed to just "leave it...

    retrieve without getting in the water?

    I cannot figure out how to put my 25'C-Dory onto the trailer without ending up wading. When the temperature is reasonable, no big deal, but with winter weather I am trying to figure a way to hook it to the trailer without doing any wading. Any body have a way that keeps everybody dry? Amanda

    Too much boat for my skills

    I have owned my C-Dory since November of 2009. It is a 2009 25 foot cruiser. I had never owned a v-hull boat before buying my C-Dory. It is a beautiful boat, but I am finding it is simply more boat than I am willing or able to deal with. It is very well equipped. It has a 150 horse Honda (Less...
