I have twin 90 Hondas on my 25 Cruiser, with a Garmin GFS 10 fuel sensor for each engine. They have worked well for a long, but just recently they are showing readings that are about double (in a good way) the usage of fuel. I updated the Garmin chartplotter, and that didn't make a difference...

It seemed like there was a thread for this already, but I couldn't find it, so I will start a new one. I just had Jesse at Bitter End Boatworks, in Bellingham, WA do the yearly engine maintenance on my twin Honda 90s, as well as painting the bottom of my 25 Cruiser. I can't recommend him enough...

I noticed that the new 25 C Dorys have access hatches under each cushion in the V berth, so I thought that would be a good thing to add. I see that other people have done this successfully in 22s, and 25s. I contacted the C Dory company, and purchased the two aluminum frames from them for about...

When we bought our CD25 in November, it had to be trucked up from Sausalito, CA to Bellingham, WA. We had a nightmare experience with a trucking dispatch company out of Florida called True Price Transport. Finally we got our deposit back, and found a NW one man operation called DRFT Transport...

I have a C Dory 25, new to me, that does not have a trailer and is currently moored. I have the option of buying the trailer that it was on, for a good price. At this point we don't have any plans to tow it very far. The main point for getting the trailer would be for haul outs for engine...

I have owned a 25 Cruiser, with twin Honda 90s for about 5 months. One of the engines has had the Check Engine light and alarm go off 4 times. The engine continues to run fine, even with the alarm on. No sign of any problems. When the alarm goes off, I have shut the engine down and waited a bit...

I just purchased a C Dory 25 that has a Delta 14# anchor, with 1/4" chain and 1/2" rode. A friend has given me a Delta 22# anchor, and it seems that it will fit on the anchor roller just fine. My question is that the recommendation for chain size on the 22# is 5/16th ", not 1/4". I don't want to...

We were just able to purchase our first C Dory 25, named Jean Marie, from her owners in Sausalito. We live in Bellingham, WA, but we flew down to meet Jim and Sally, and to do a sea trial. It was warm and sunny on San Francisco Bay. We went to Angel Island, and nearly out under the Golden Gate...

I am interested in the best type of paint to use a boat that will be kept moored in saltwater, in the Puget Sound region. I am also curious how many coats of paint to use, and how often this has to be done. On our sailboat I used 2 coats of a copper ablative, which was only needed about every 4...
