    Can I tow a 25

    You can certainly tow a 25' C Dory with a F 150, but you will literally find out what the "tail wagging the dog" means. Suggest a 3/4 ton or better & diesel and you'll be happy in the long run. best wishes, Ken from Bend If you buy a Chev., GMC or Ford make sure the vehicle has a heated tail...

    Yuma Az cruising possibilities

    Hi George, I suggest that you contact the mgmt. at Hidden Shores RV resort located north of Yuma. I believe you could launch your C Dory at that location. They have boat docks, etc. You must be aware of the many sand bars in the river and proceed accordingly. At any rate, Hidden Shores RV...

    Just a thought from the peanut gallery for anyone buying a new C Dory or anyone of the boats that Triton is manufacturing.

    Guess what I just noticed today!

    Maybe your head is on crooked and the window is straight? Load the boat towards the side that will make the window seem plumb and it'll all work out. Good luck Ken
