Model Description  for 2006 C-Dory 25' Cruiser

 

 

The 25' C-Dory Cruiser is longer wider and taller than the 22' Cruiser. With the added size we were able to incorporate many of the features that so many C-Dory 22' owners have asked for in a larger boat. The additional features include; enclosed head and shower, self bailing cockpit, larger galley and a forward viewing companion seat.

The 25’ Cruiser provides a spacious self bailing aft cockpit. Welded Stainless steel railings along the sides assure safety even in rough water and provide a feeling of security.

The cabin with over 6’10” of headroom provides roomy shelter. It features a comfortable dinette, galley, sleeping area and a stand up head and shower as well as the pilot station.

The dinette is located along the port side of the cabin, it has lots of storage under its seats, makes into a 6’4” berth and features the forward viewing companion seat. .

The pilots station and galley are located along the starboard side. The galley consists of a two burner alcohol stove (diesel stove/heater upgrade available) a stainless steel sink, 23 gallon water supply and a 6 gallon hot water tank, and a teak dish rack that holds four plates and four glasses. Aft of the galley is the stand up head with a marine toilet and shower.

The forward section of the cabin features a 6’4” “V” berth, two reading lights, and a large deck hatch. It is separated from the main cabin with a privacy curtain.   

The interior trim is neat and utilitarian, with emphasis on easy maintenance and durability. The cabinetry consists of fiberglass molded sections with doors and drawers made with ¾” decragaurd marine grade plywood with a laminate overlay and Teak wood trimming. The exterior door and windows are made by Diamond Sea Glaze with powder coated aluminum frames. 

Cushions are made of high quality foam covered with durable ‘Sunbrella’ boat canvas. The colors coordinate with the exterior trim. All of the cushions can be removed so the interior can be cleaned.

The electrical system provides spare switches fuse holders and ground terminals for additional accessories. A 30 amp shore power with cord and a battery charger are standard as well.

Electric windshield wipers with pantographic arms are standard. Side windows slide open and have screens, together with the large forward deck hatch and the standard center opening window which provide the cabin with ample ventilation.

All deck hardware is stainless steel and through bolted. The top deck is a very healthy  3/4” thick. Deck hardware includes ( 5 ) through bolted SS cleats. Down riggers or other equipment requiring a sturdy mount base can be bolted on any top-walking surface. The bow and stern rails and handholds on the top and rear of the cabin are also through bolted.

Both the cockpit sole and the top walk decks have a very aggressive nonskid. The cockpit's deck lid is removable and the nonskid is a molded in diamond pattern.

The 25’ C-Dory Cruiser comes standard with a 100 gallon fuel system located under the aft cockpit deck.

The motor well can accommodate a matched pair of twin motors or a large main & small auxiliary motor package. C-Dory is a strong promoter of the 4 stroke outboards. Honda has been and continues to be the leader in this technology but they are no longer alone. Most all motor brands now offer 4 stroke motors that are suitable for the 25' C-Dory Cruiser.

Maximum power is 200Hp. Twin 90s or a single 150 are typical motor installation.


Construction

The fiberglass hull, decks, and house are entirely hand laid with use of balsa core composite construction. The use of cored sandwich construction in the bottom, decks and bulkheads, in combination with the deeply molded plank lines, give the boat incredible strength and stiffness. It also does away with the need for interior bracing and floor boards., eliminating bilge cleaning and potential maintenance problems. At the same time this design maximizes interior space, making the C-Dory 25’ Cruiser a very roomy boat for its weight and size.

The hull and deck are molded separately and then fiberglassed together while still in the molds to assure perfect alignment. This construction method joins the hull and decks into one very strong and rigid unit without joints to fatigue and leak. All color accents and top deck nonskid patterns are molded-in.
