Greetings everyone,
Been enjoying reading the material on the site for over a year now and thought I better come out of the electronic shadows and into the light to introduce myself! My name is Jason Smith. I live in the Columbia River Gorge (Oregon) with my wife and two young children. In 2016 I purchased a C-Dory 22 cruiser previously owned by a fellow C-brats, mcolp. The boat, formerly known as Allyson Marie, is now known as Limpet - a name nearer and dearer to the members of my family.
For the last two seasons we have been exploring and enjoying the Pacific Northwest, ranging from Dworshak Reservoir, ID; the Columbia River; San Juan Islands, WA; and the Pacific coast out of Garibaldi, OR. The boat is tremendous and was well cared for by her prior owner. We are so happy to have her and have been having a ball fishing and playing with Limpet.
I first learned about C-Dory boats from a family member, who shall not be named to protect the innocent, and who I might add, always demonstrated great judgment in watercraft. I learned what a Montgomery sailboat was from him. I researched them, could find no better design for the intended purpose, and later bought one myself. As you know already, I also eventually bought a C-Dory as well. A THANK YOU to you, unnamed family member!
Limpet is our first powerboat, having owned several sailboats previously. Like Limpet's prior owner, I take good care of my equipment and enjoy doing much of my own maintenance and repairs when I can. THANK YOU EVERYBODY for your contributions to this community. It has been a HUGE resource for me on these boats and I am grateful.
That's it for now. Thanks again everybody!
Jason
