On the used market, 25s and TomCats all seem to be from 2007 or earlier. I know the original company went through bankruptcy and restructuring during the financial crisis, and production has been much lower since then, but I almost never see any C Dorys younger than 20 years old for sale anywhere, even through dealers. My next thought is, "Well, maybe the people who own late model C Dorys love them and just never list them." But when I look around the C Brats forum, I also do not see many... Read more

I live in Sacramento but can travel to the bay area for the right boat. If not for sale, do you at least have a 16 cruiser I could look at? Thanks.

I recently purchased a 2009 highroof 22 Cruiser. It will be a while before I can get it stored inside. I need to purchase a good outdoor cover for it. The companies that I’ve looked up so far don’t list C Dory’s as an option. I’m in Central Washington State. Does anyone have a good recommendation or maybe even a used cover for sale?

I have started this thread after asking Thataway a question about how he used his davit to get an MOB back onboard. I hope other C-Dorians will share what they do. The conversation so far: MY QUESTION Bob, I'm researching how to get an unconscious MOB back aboard a C-Dory 25' and was struck by your stating that you practiced with your dinghy hoist. My husband and his wet clothes would weigh about 225 lbs if he were the MOB. If unconscious, he would need to be winched aboard somehow... Read more

Hey all, Brand new owner of a 2006 C-Dory 25 Cruiser that is currently powered by a 2006 Honda 150. While the current motor is running well, it is getting up there in age and given the type of crusing we want to do, we are considering a repower. Besides, there are no local Honda dealers close by at all, so servicing isn't clean and easy. That said, I'm interested in understanding the differences in repower options. The local Suzuki dealer has some huge sales on the 140HP but I'm... Read more

I’m researching converting to LiFeP04 batteries. The price has come down and they weigh less than half, but it’s NOT plug and play. Has anyone done it?
