For all of you that would like to something different, if you are icebound itching to get out, would like to try new waters without pulling your boat halfway across the continent, let me suggest contacting Mark Gove of Wefings Marine in Eastpointe Florida (http://wefings.com/; Marc Grove <marc@wefings.com>). He has a 25 ft. C-Dory cruiser for rent (http://trawlerrental.com/). My wife and I just returned from a wonderful trip where we used his boat to cruise the ICW, St. Joe bay, and Apalachicola River. This area, Florida’s Forgotten Coast, is all about mild weather and seafood, either gathering or eating. Mark and his crew are very helpful, courteous, knowledgeable and bent over backwards to see we had a good time. My wife thought this trip would abate my desire to have a C-Dory, sorry to tell her it just made it worse.

I've drooled over Cape Dorys for years.

They've changed a lot over the years. I had a Cape Dory 25 years ago and it had a big stick up in the air with white triangular cloth hanging off it and a big heavy keel on the bottom that weighed 1500 lbs. Darn thing absolutely refused to plane. ;D

I think you have the wrong cape dory!!!! It's not the JOHN dory either.

I love those c-dory ies. There is a guy those is posted on u-tube of his ICW cruising in a c-dory.
