And the "other half" of the C-Dory/C-Ranger group... some neat boats...

C-Dory

A popular small craft, especially on the West coast it seems. Capable and well liked by its owners from what I've seen. One of the best cruising logs/sites I've ran across (Cruising America - Halcyon Days) is the story of a couple who seem to have "done it all" short of trans-oceanic cruising, mostly in a 22' C-Dory. Definitely shows what can be done.

Another couple on the Cosmic C are currently doing the Great Loop... another site to check out.

There is an active and helpful community site: C-Brats.

I like my creature comforts too much to probably manage cruises of the extent they have, but...
