Jim, I have a 2006 22 Cruiser (1900) on a Magic Tilt two axle trailer (600) with a Honda 90 (400) on the transom. With the usual gear and full fuel and water (700), it weighs in between 3500 and 4000. We tow it with a Ford F 150 (9000 towing capacity) and hardly know it is back there. If you...

The factory web site has an rpm/fuel used/mileage table for the C-Dory 22 under the "performance" heading. If you have two 40's on the transom, the low speed mileage is poor, less than at planing speed. If you have one 75 the hull speed mileage is higher than the planing speeds. At really low...

Is there an way to make toast on a Wallas stove?

Matt, I don't think you can answer that question with a simple yes or no. They seen to do very well on the hull and cabin structures and in joining the two together. The radar arch and handrails were very well done on my 22. The cabinets and the other things installed by the finishing crew...

Mike, The electrical checklist is a great idea for those of us who are technically challenged, but I couldn't get the link to work. I am getting ready to pull the electronics out of storage in my sock drawer and reinstall them on Day_Dreamer. Is it a good idea to coat the prongs on the...

Several days ago, Jeff promised a full view of the excellent Quality Control Program at C-Dory. I think we ought give him the opportunity present the program before we make too many judgments on the status of quality control at C-Dory.

Jeff, Thanks for the review of the service situation. Another area that many of us would like to hear about is the quality control situation at he plant. Why don't you fill us in on how the factory quality control people are dealing with the with the complaints that have appeared earlier in...

We seem to see a lot of postings from new C-Dory owners who are afflicted with problems caused by poor quality control at the factory. After picking up my new 22 Cruiser in May I soon found three annoying defects, and my wife found one that still irritates her. The panels that cover the gas...

Patrick, I don't know if you are aware of it but you can train your dog to use a litter box. I've never done it, but I know a woman who suffers from MS and she isn't always able to get to the door to let her dog out. Not many people in Maine use doggie doors due to the cold temperatures and...

We do most of our boating close to land and beaches are everywhere. Our boat beaches easily. One of us drops off the bow and the other hands down the dogs. When we find ourselves close to a public landing, the dogs use them. We carry doggie clean up bags so we won't become persona non grata...

thanks. I'll give that a try.

I had to put a set of led lights on my new MagicTilt this year after eight or ten launchings because the bulbs corroded into their sockets and destroyed the sockets when removed. I used the twist connectors supplied in the package when installing the new leds. It is beginning to look like that...

After 9 years in the marina, we bought a new C-Dory 22 and went trailer boating again. The boat worked very well after sorting out a few assembly issues, and the trailer is stable even at turnpike speeds. It has been the perfect boat for our frequent trips around Casco Bay and the Kennebec...
