    Thanks Patrick for this tip. Originally, when the calendar first came out, the savings were 30% off with a coupon code. Now, it appears to be 20% and a different code. :( I'm just glad we have a C-Brats calendar this year with great photography from the C-Brats family. Got my calendar in the...

    Refrigerator

    original quote, "What brand refrigerator. Ac/dc unit or just dc? I would like to install under rear port side seat seat. I have a 23 Venture." We have a 23 Venture Sport that came with a Norcold refrigerator. The frig will work on AC and DC but ours runs on DC because we did not order the shore...

    Foam core vs. Balsa

    CPlay you are correct. Also, just this last May, Michael Millison from the factory at NMI told me that all new C-Dory models would soon be built with high density foam fill because the purchase cost of the material was actually cheaper to buy than balsa.

    Hi Andrew, The fan we use is made by 'efluky'. Not sure if the manufacturer is still around but the fan still works. It has a usb connection to use for running or if fully charged by usb, it will hold a charge overnight with the fan on a low setting, which is nice. Hope this information helps...

    Left Speechless

    Excellent point Jay in how whales can make you feel small or insignificant while in a C-Dory. On my birthday last week, we were at anchor in Active Cove at Patos Island. At the east opening of Little Patos Island, a pod of Orca spent several minutes swimming around and feeding . We took some...

    Recommended anchor rope and chain for 23 Venture Sport

    Great points made so far. No problems since new with 200 ft. of rode and 35 ft. of chain using a 25 lb. Mantus anchor. The 35 ft. of chain seems to be enough lay for a good set as we have never drug the anchor and always have a good set in the PNW waters.

    Experience with C Dory Dealers in PNW

    Good job on that purchase and great to hear of your satisfaction with Master Marine. Consider coming to the annual C-Brats Friday Harbor gathering next May. Would love to see your new to you 23 Venture Sport.

    Experience with C Dory Dealers in PNW

    Good point Tom. This reminds me of being at the Seattle Boat Show a few years ago and Colleen and I happened to overhear a gentleman asking the rep from Master Marine questions about the 23 C-Dory Venture for sale on the floor. The rep did not know any of the answers that was being asked of him...

    Downrigger

    This thread is almost 20 years old but I thought I should put a plug in for the Scotty 1106 Downrigger. We bought ours 5 years ago and it has been working well but the last time we were out, the unit was showing about a 50 ft. drop of the lead ball for about every 5 ft. that the ball was...

    Experience with C Dory Dealers in PNW

    A bit of a drive south from where you are but we are pleased with the work from Sportcraft Marina in Portland, Oregon. They specialize in Suzuki and Honda, but work on all motor types. This is where we bought our boat and they did excellent work with our motor and electronic install’s. One thing...
