    Planing speed of a CD-19

    A friend tows a CD-16 behind his GB Trawler to use as a fishing boat when he gets to Alaska. He says it planes at 8 knots perfectly for his cruising speed at 8.5. Does anyone know the planing speed of an unoccupied cd 19? I may have to tow one and would like to know how much drag it might...

    Canada/US split retirement home questions

    We discovered Vancouver Island several years ago and bought a place on Yellow Point 4 years ago. I can highly recommend the Island. From our place, which seems to be like it's in the boonies, we can be in downtown Nanaimo (77,000 people) in 15 minutes to get to all the malls, Home Depots, etc...

    07/14 - 07/16 - Bellingham, WA

    We had hoped to have our C-Ranger 25 in time for the Bellighan get together, but they are running a bit late and it probably won't be ready until August. Maybe next year. Art and Diane

    C-Ranger 25

    We were there on Tuesday and they were getting ready to mate the top with the hull. They were doing some final grinding and had planned to get it mated before the day was over. We left to get a bite to eat and as we passed by the shop around 6:30, there was no sign of life. Either it went on...

    Cell Phone Coverage in San Juan's ?

    What about coverage in Canada. I expect we will spend time near Vancouver Island and up to Desolation sound (for this year anyway). My wife has a Verizon cell phone and I've wondered if I get one (retired last Friday and I'm not sure I want to be that accessible), should it be from a Canadian...

    networked electronics

    I also was in the position of choosing electronics for the 25' Ranger tug that's coming in June. Being someone who likes to investigate before sinking the big bucks, I talked with everyone I could find from experienced cruisers to Anacortes Marine Electronics and other retail outlets. Without...

    C-Ranger 25

    Well, I had a chance to visit the Ranger factory Monday and I'm very impressed. To my novice eye, the overall look is quite similar to the Alaskan (or the Nordic Tug 26 for that matter), a bit more rounded on the edges though. The final tweeks are still being made to the plug for the molded top...

    C-Ranger 25

    Yes, a sleeping capacity of 6 is a bit of a stretch. Two below in the V-berth and 2 each in the dinnette and sitting area. Maybe if 4 were kids. Most of the time it'll be just the 2 of us, especially if it's overnight. Talked to Jeff today and the June date is still good. We're visiting him...

    C-Ranger 25

    Hi, Were new members and don't actually have a C-Dory product yet, but we will be getting C-Ranger 25 hull #7 in June. We live in Anacortes, WA and expect to spend a lot of time on the water later this summer from the San Juans to Vancouver Island (as long as my retirement happens when...
