Maybe there are a few people who are not aware that the Tolands built commercial fishing boats before the C-Dory actually came into the picture. The commercial boats they built, for the most part, do not have the C-Dory name on them. I have seen a photo of a charter boat in Alaska that was...

Like they say in the "Chrysler TV AD": If You Can Find a Better Boat - Buy It!! :D :D :D

Tom & Marge, I can check on the price for you by tomorrow. It shouldn't be that much as I've already paid for their time and effort and they should still have some of the 8 year vinyl left that I had them order for me, which would further reduce the cost. It really looks good. The worse part...

I wanted to replace those old C-Dory decals with something original with the KENT, WA address. The factory did not have any original decals, so I went to a sign company that uses a computer for making signs. They did an excellent job of duplicating the original and left it in their computer at...

I like good Redneck jokes too! I promise no more after this one! WHY REDNECKS CAN'T BE PARAMEDICS A couple of rednecks are out in the woods hunting when one of them suddenly grabs his chest and falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing; his eyes are rolled back in his head...

Dusty, Just between you and I, and don't let this go any further! That guy who stirred the pot with all this trim BS just realized something. :oops: :oops: Ya know, I'm old enough to have a senior moment now and then, but this one lasted for several days. Now I'll have to remove that...

In true dory form, I don't see the need for trim tabs. I've used my boat in some pretty nasty conditions in the open ocean and have really enjoyed the performance of that hull design with no trim tabs. Trim tabs are for high performance boats. The C-Dory is not a high performance boat. It's...

Joe, The only reason I went to a two stroke 90 hp on my boat is because I was primarily intending to use my boat at high altitude lakes such as Lake Tahoe, Donner, Pyramid, Boca and the like. At this altitude a two stroke will lose up to 30% of it's HP depending upon the temperature. The data...

I would give my personal thoughts, which may be considered "mean," so I won't. Instead, I will quote an article in the Nov. 1989 issue of Small Boats Journal. On page 20 there is an article titled "Outboard Cabin Dories." In a side panel is an article about "C-Dory Origins." From C-Dory...

C-Weed, Here's a website that I get my trailer tires from www.tirerack.com If they have a outlet near you, all you have to do is place your order and go to the warehouse and pick up the tires (No Shipping). Bill

The Toland's know boats!!! :D This could get interesting!

CC Here's some more stuff on the Pro Angler. Pro Angler Pictures Pro-Angler thread :shock:

What's a Garmin? :wink Actually, I don't know much about Garmin. I equipped my boat with Furuno and I've been pleased with it so far (14 years). I did hear a commercial fisherman complaining about the fact he couldn't get a Japanese color tube for his depth finder which is the same model...

The Lost Coast in the area of Shelter Cove is one of the most scenic areas I have ever fished with my C-Dory. On a sunny day with just a wisp of fog and a calm ocean you will think you died and went to heaven. This area can be foggy on a regular basis during the summer. The rat race slows...

I've been to Shelter Cove with my C-Dory. For those thinking of making that trip, I highly recommend making the first trip over the hill without your boat in tow. The trip in is very dangerous. :shock: Bill

This has been scuttlebutt for over a year. Now it seems to be the straight scoop. Cabela's is coming to Northern Nevada, out west on Interstate 80 at Boomtown. Bill :wink:
