I want to thank all the C-Brats for insights and knowledge. My wife and I are long term sailors and over the last year of so have been looking closely at the C-Dory boats and talking to owners where ever we've seen them. You are an enthusiastic bunch! A few weeks ago, we placed an order with Port Boathouse in Port Alberni for a 2009 19 Angler as being the right boat for our current mission. We like exploring shallow spots and gunkholing around and are looking forward to the expanded range a trailerable boat offers. It just got an id today so I thought I'd officially join the forum.
