Just for fun and giggles I check craigslist for boats on a daily basis. I swear I saw a 16' C-Dory angler there this morning and now that I'm trying to find it again it's gone. Must have been a great deal. I think the asking price was $17,000 something. Anyone else see it?

There's always something but I think I have this little 16 footer in the bag. I started out last year with a 1982 C-Dory Angler that had been neglected and abused. Over the past year she has been "my little project". After a lot cleaning up, fixing and replacing she's about as done as she is...

This is one of the last little things on my "To Do" list before the boat is ready to launch. The main eye bolt in the bow of the boat that the trailer line attaches to is loose. Not a wiggle, waggle loose like it's going to fall off but notably loose. Maybe a 1/16th of an inch loose I...

Thought you might get a laugh out of this. Took a while but I did. Last year I ordered up a beautiful set of spanking new decals for my C-Dory. They came in the mail but for the life of me I couldn't figure out why they had sent me two sets. I thought it was awful nice of them. Maybe people...

I posted some last year about my issue with water intrusion into the enclosed seating area on the aft of my 1983 16' Angler. I finally got that project completed and now have some nice, open storage bins under the seat. As I was closing in on the final touches I noticed two small screw holes...

I had to open up and tear out the foam under the aft, bench seat on my 16' Angler because of water intrusion (see recent post and photos). What I am pondering now is how to finish up what I have started. The floor of the cockpit is glassed and continuous where it passes under the bench so I...

After having moved my 1986, 16' Angler into the garage I thought I noticed a slight puddle of water in back of the cockpit. I wiped it up and went about my work. Today I found a bit more water in the same place so I took my drill and with a small drill bit opened up the old screw holes where...

It's me again. Boy am I having fun! I'm removing the old decals and should have some new C-Dory decals from Scott at Triton Marine soon. Thanks Scott! My question is, was there an original decal on this boat that said "Sweet 16"? I found something that said "Sweet 16" on both sides under...

Jeez I go a lot of questions all of a sudden. I started painting on the boat yesterday. I'm doing it piece meal and can only get to a section at a time. I began by pouring half of my quart of epoxy paint into a mixing container. I added the hardener and went to work. I soon realized that I...

Moved Pee Wee into the garage last week end and had a whole inch and a half to spare. This is a 16 foot angler. Right now she's getting her hat painted. I had given up on doing any more work until Spring because I thought I didn't have the room but some creative rearanging of my two BMW...

Still working away on my little 16' Angler. One of my projects is to get the kicker tied in to the main outboard so that it can be steered from the helm. I thought I had it with a piece from Cabelas that joins them with a threaded, stainless bar at the front. They call it an Auxiliary Motor...

Electrical isn't one of my better skills. I'm patient enough to get it done but it's still pretty much a mystery to me how it all works. What I'm doing is replacing the simple wiring in my 16' Angler. Not much to it but I'm already stuck. When I tore the old wires out it looked awful and was...

I found a neglected 1987 C Dory Angler and have been trying to get her sea worthy. It has turned out to be a bit more of a project than I wanted. I have opted not to go whole hog on it but rather work with what she has. What she has is an earlier hull. No enclosed forward stowage, no fancy...

Hi folks, I'm new to the site so I hope I'm in the right area. I'm in unfamiliar territory. Looks like a friendly group though. I just purchased a 1983, 16 foot, C Dory Angler. Among other issues The two plexiglass windshields need to be replaced. The original installation looks simple...
