    I want to sell my 2013 16 Cruiser

    There are lots of photos on page 34 of the photo albums. It is a great little boat with a 40 HP Honda. I have no idea what to ask for it. For more information email stanmajor@earthlink.net or (386) 785-4396. Location is DeLand Florida.

    Battery life

    My 2013 C-Dory is turning 3. I am thinking of replacing my 12 volt deep cycle batteries just to be on the safe side. I know my car batteries here in Florida seem to die after only 2 years. I suppose the longer periods of high heat have something to do with it. How long do most people get out...

    mildew inside the cabin

    I keep the boat covered to keep out rain. I have 2 containers of damp rid inside and I still get a build up of mildew. I repainted the inside once and it was perfectly white. Any suggestions for getting rid of these mildew stains and preventing them in the future?

    I saw Salty

    I was sitting on the dog beach in New Smyrna when I spotted a C-Dory cruising past. It was Salty headed toward Ponce Inlet.

    Moyen Poodle

    Many C-Brats love their dogs which become great companions on their trips. After being without a dog for about 6 months it feels right to start looking for a new puppy. Our last dogs, a Portuguese Water Dog and a Bichon passed away within 2 weeks of each other at around 14 years of age. My...

    Why is my 16 with a Honda 40 so slow?

    Just got back from St. Augustine where my return trip speed topped out at about 12 to 13 MPH at 4400 RPMs. I know weight can be a problem (packed a lot of stuff for the trip). What else could be slowing me down? Marc, if you are seeing this, I met Frank with his 2008 Ranger Tug he purchased...

    Barnacles

    OK it was stupid. I left my boat in the water here in New Smyrna for a month. While it was nice having a dock to be able to get out and fish every morning it seems I am going to pay the price. When I took the boat out yesterday to return back home a crust of barnacles is all over the bottom...

    That C-Dory 14

    If only this boat could be built and sold at a reasonable price. I just think it is a cool little fishing boat.

    Anyone ever installed a trac anchoring system?

    The saltwater version of the Trac anchoring system holds 100 feet of line and will take a 25 lb anchor which should be plenty for the ICW. The thought of pushing a button to raise and lower the anchor is very appealing.

    Anyone ever joined a boat club?

    I'm thinking of joining the Daytona Beach Boat Club. Not sure what to expect. Anyone had good experiences with their local boat club?

    How long can I leave my lights on?

    I like to fish early. I have dual 12 volt batteries which I try and make sure are fully charged before going out. My question is, how long can one sit in a fishing spot with all the lights on before worrying the battery drain will prevent you from having enough power to start your engine.

    Anyone else ever left their plug out?

    I guess it is one of those things you hear about but never think it will happen to you. Yesterday after arriving here in Shelter Harbor Marina Beach Haven NJ, I paid my $20 at the boat ramp, launched the boat when water started gushing out the side from the pump. Oops, forgot the put the...

    How does one become a gimme another C-Brat?

    I see a lot of C-Dories and C-Brats over and over. Is this completely random or something you have to voluntarily include your photo?

    Today's the day

    As I sit here at the Gibson Inn in Apalachicola waiting to head over to see Marc at Wefings to visit my new 16 Cruiser I wonder if this rain will ever stop. On our first visit Wednesday the boat was nearly finished with Dave adding some lights, fixing the seat and putting in some rod holders...

    Which towing service is better?

    Boat US or Seatow? I was fortunate enough to be towed by the local Coast Guard in New Smyrna which saved me a lot of money but I think it is time to purchase towing insurance.

    12 14 16

    I'm new so I don't know. Has there ever been any thought of an East Coast presense for C-Dory? After seeing photos of the 12 and sometimes the 14, I can't help but wonder why someone has not negotiated being able to produce the smaller models on this side of the country. To me a 12, a 14 and...

    Shelter Harbor LBI NJ

    Just rented a place in Beach Haven NJ in August. Plan is to trailer the C-Dory and explore this area. Anyone have experience with the bays in this area. Things to see? Good fishing? Anyone ever put their car, boat and trailer on the Cape May-Lewes Ferry?
