Aliens have landed in New Jersey, and they don't look friendly!

Id like to hear from folks who have recent practical experience cruising up the Hudson from NYC. Especailly if you have a dog on your crew. I have a good marina guide, but nothing beats real experience. We plan to take our CD22 up to Saratoga from CT. We would like to bring Jackson, a BIG Newfy...

Long Island Yacht Sales They dont have a new one for you to see...only a 2009 CD22 that belongs to a customer. I spoke with them once, and the experience had me shopping for a used. Thats all Ill say, 'cept maybe the salesman was having a bad day. Give em a try...

Serously, our plans will have us on the Champlain Canal the week of August 17. A trip to the races in definatly on the agenda, so c'mon out to the track! The track is dark on Tuesdays, so thats a good day to check out the National Museum of racing, or if golf is your thing then you cant miss the...

Hey, if you find yourself on the Champlain Canal anytime in August, a stop at Shuylerville is a must! Its just a couple of miles from there to Saratoga Springs. The summer racing meet will be in full swing. You are likely to find he Admiral and Your's Truly trackside. May The Horse Be With You

Yes! Now the fun begins..we are on the hard, ready to get shined up, and have a bit of personalizing done..spring gave us a teaser last week, but winter is having a last gasp..we got the fever, fo sho! OK..1st problem. Our first mate, Jackson, is a 150lb Newfoundland Dog. In my last boat, a...

Paid 4.51 at the gas dock in Norwalk CT yesterday, no extra charge for the ethenol. Of course this is simply a 'supply and demand issue" right? How can we even suggest thateven though the oil companies report BILLIONS in profit every quarter, and the higher the pump price the higher the...

We Bought "C-Minor," a beautifully kept 2004 CD22 Cruiser from Skipper Jerry D, a fine skipper and a real gentleman. C-Minor was delivered to us yesterday at Norwalk Harbor, Long Island Sound, Connecticut. We fueled her up and gave he a good taste of salt water on what we consider to be a day...

Not being a dealer, just a schmo fisherman/cruiser on the Long Island Sound..I dont want the C-Dory advertised. I like having the unique and unkown boat out here (took the CD decals off). When folks ask, I just tell 'em its an old maine lobster boat that I restored...some folks actualy buy...

I wil concur with the others. Normaly I am a person that is not allowed to handle tools of any kind without adult supervision. Even I was able to replace the cable on my 17' Bristol Skiff a couple years ago.

I ask this in the first place because upon telling ( gloating) to a pal that I had just purchased a pretty damn nice CD, he asked me what kind of outboard I had. When I told him I had a 2004 Honda 90, he kinda wrinkled his brow, and said " Too bad ya didnt get a Yamaha..those Hondas are notrious...

What price to put on "Joy". Never has a passion I wasnt willing to spend a buck on.

Ill chime in too... Yes, definatly carry a spare, an aluminum one that can be banged roughly into fair usable shape in can I damage that one on the same trip also.

My wife suggests that at the end of the seasonn to fill the fresh water reservoir up with pretty good 100 prooof vodka. I, Myself would prefer Irish whiskey, but,,hey,,ya cant win em all, can ya?

The sticker on the cowling clearly states: "Flush with fresh water after each use" . For the folks that keep thier boats in the salty sea, do ALL of you follow this advise, and if so ( or not) what have been your corrosion issues over say, the past 4 years? I mean, if the lable is right on...

Folks, we can close this thread now...no more shopping. She's Ours!

Of course, hiring some one to ship the boat for us is indeed an option. My good pal (who's money is NOT buying the boat) is hell bent on us taking this cruise. Myself? I am not a guy opposed to a good adventure , nor do I have doubts about our combined abilities. All that said, the idea of...

I should clarify. The boat is in the water, right near the BF Bridge. We need to float it down the river and up the NJ coast to NY Harbor, and on to it's new home in Connectciut, on the Long Island Sound.
