Dave I would really like to adress your post and talk to you about hysteria and misleading people. I can assure you your problem isnt Al Gore. But this is a boat forum so I will let it go. Regards Jim

Yea the devastation of spilling billions of gallons of oil into the ocean is just man being a part of nature. sheesh Jim D

Thanks for the kind words! Duncan is in the cowichan valley on vancouver island. Maple bay marina is close to me. I have year around boating in one of the nicest cruising areas. I think it will be great to see another c-dory when i am on the water. Looking forward to meeting some of you. Jim D

Marty, The dealership is 2 hours away and I have to work this afternoon. It's killin me.. :sad Jim D

Dave from the Port Boat House just called and advised me my 22 cruiser has arrived at their dealership. I am going to look at it on Monday. They expect they will have it ready sometime next week. It's hard to believe but this time next week I am going to be out cruising. I will be able to...

Marvin....excellent point....there are certainly many things happening that the world is trying figure out. Scientists are not united on the reasons for it..however it makes it tough when partisan ship gets in the conversation.

just an observation....it doesnt seem to matter what people say...it matters who says it...

I have a 15 year old son and a 17 year old daughter. For you folks that are feeling lonely you are welcome to borrow them for a few years. Our dog on the other hand is 15. She is deaf and blind in one eye. When our son was 2 years old we had rented a cabin on lake of the woods. We had a...

Joe Said.... Everytime I read one of Joe's posts I can't help but laugh out loud. What a character. Jim D

I think you need to define what seaworthy means to you. For example the heavier a boat is the more comfortable it will be. But if you are talking about falling off a wave in a c-dory or a sea -ray.....c-dory wins hands down. Don't under estimate the building process where c-dorys eliminate the...

I am going back and forth between C-Whisper and C-Escape for my new 22. It's tough Jim D

Reading this post reminds me the hard bottom zodiac i had with a 50hp on it. Loaded it on the trailer headed up the ramp, the winch let go and the zodiac slid off. If that ever happened with my new c-dory( when it arrives) I am sure i would cry like a baby. Jim D Since i started reading the...

now that was funny!!! Jim D

I live in the north west and ordered my new c-dory with the wallis. I have been boating for many years and I know the importance of heat. If you are just cooking then go with whatever you like. But not only is heat important up here, but dry heat. Propane for example gives off a very humid heat...

Jim, the "Our C-Dorys" link above is a list of forum members with their boat names. Your name C-Whisper has not been used. There are so many names I figured it would take a week to scroll through. thankyou I like it, but anything louder than a whisper and you're liable to wake up SleepyC...

I am expecting delivery of my new 22 in the next few weeks. The name C-Whisper appeals to me. Does anyone know if that name is taken by any other dory folks? Jim D

A problem that is more frequent than you might think on planing power boats is the anchor releasing while underway. The anchor goes under the boat and damages your engine. Unfortunately I have first hand experience with just that. I have talked to other people who have had a similar event. Since...

Charlie, Congratulations on your new boat. We are expecting our new one in Nov. I am having the same problem as you...what should i name her? I will watch the suggestions you get and maybe it will inspire me. I was going to name the boat after my beautiful wife but she gets angry with me alot...

Dave I bought my new c-dory from port boat house in port alberni. I am dealing with a fellow named Dave. So far so good , but I don't have the vessel yet. JIm

Thanks for all the feedback. I am not aware of the c=brats convention in Seatlle. How do I make a reservation? Jim
