As mentioned, NADA is way off for boats. A much closer region adjusted value is available from BUC Value Pro. Here is an example. Further, keep in mind this is for an average condition boat without extras. Better than average condition and/or extras would raise the price above that shown...

I saw three launch at Washington Park in Anacortes this Friday afternoon. The first was E Z Rider. A little bit later, there was Missy. Before Missy was out of sight, Kim Christine launched. Have fun everyone.

The blog and a short blurb about it were posted to the Cruising Odyssey web site a couple of days ago. It was also mentioned in today's email newsletter just below a note about a 42-foot Kadey-Krogen. http://cruisingodyssey.com/2017/04/26/r ... c-dory-25/

HI, jhspear. I saw Obsession from Madison, WI headed west on highway 20 towards Anacortes. I think that was yesterday.

I bought an inexpensive Lenovo Win10x64 laptop ($270 on a BestBuy sale), then upgraded the RAM to 16GB, swapped in a 1TB SSHD, and upgraded Win10 to Pro for better use for development. It turned out quite adequate for not a whole lot of money. For antivirus, my pick is ESET for both Win and Mac.

I got Vue Scan back when I used a Nikon slide scanner. It had been recommended on some professional photo forums I lurked on (not pro myself, just enthusiast). I no longer have that scanner, but have continued to use the software with various flat scanners since then. It's good stuff.

I have a Dropbox basic/free account. I used my laptop to download the guide and put it in a private Dropbox folder. Now, I can download it from Dropbox on any of my devices. If you have trouble downloading directly to a device, this workaround might help.

Another +1 for Dave Smith. I traded a Jeep Cherokee for a new Ram 3500 SRW this past July. (Hugh inventory!) The price was good and I got $1k more than expected on the trade. I gave them a couple weeks notice and let them know which accessories I wanted added to it (power steps, 5th wheel...

I saw it over there when I was in Seafarer's Park near the fuel dock, but it was too far away for me to get a picture.

Forgot to add... It was interesting reading of the mention of the River Horse book as I had just completed that before you posted about your book. It was cool reading two books in a row featuring the C-Dory.

Nice job on the book. I started with the free loan that comes with my Amazon Prime Unlimited subscription, but like it enough that, half way through, I went ahead and bough a copy I wouldn't have to return.

Hi, williwaw. As I mentioned, we're out of the picture for this one. It is long distance for us and we're 0:2 on surveyors. The one I picked never showed. The one the broker picked didn't bother to take any pictures, which were specifically asked for. It may be a good thing we gave up on...

Thanks, Mitch. Since my last post, I have decided to pass on that one. Thanks, though. Tim

I'm glad this thread was revived. It's timely, too, as I'm about to take a look at a 26 Venture. If there were no inspection ports added, is there any way to visually detect these leak possibilities? What clues might there be? Like, Half Share, I also wonder how to access the bilge pumps...

Hi, Charley. I have an FB account, but don't post to it. It's just to separate this me from the others of the same name. By risk, I was referring to the boat and the possibility of buying something from another region of the country far away from me.

Thanks, George and Sunbeam. I meant more of a time within a year and not the whole of a model year. Maybe it's my memory playing tricks on me, but I thought there was some mention of factory or owner changes that increased what needed to be looked at for boats made during certain periods...

Hi, all. I know there have been mentions in various posts and threads of the changes throughout C-Dory history and the various moves and owners. I've even read them. I just don't remember the details. Is there a timeline compilation sticky somewhere that shows when these changes occurred...

There's an app for that. I use a 99 cent app called Go Mix It for our sleep sounds. Depending on background noise volume, we use either the iPad speakers or an external bluetooth speaker. You can test it free here or here.

The credit union I use is Alliant. They use Nadaguides for boat pricing. I'm not sure what the other mentioned credit unions use; wouldn't hurt to ask. Some banks use BUCValu for pricing. Since I'm trying to figure out what boat to get also and am checking a bunch of boats on the internet, I...
