9.26- "C-Brats" Meet

A 25' Cruiser by "C-Dory" tied up at the Wildlife Ramp, waiting to get
underway to the "C-Brats" gathering at Whittaker Pointe Marina.
(Click on picture or here for full size)
About 40 "C-Dory" boats are gathering this weekend at Whittaker Pointe Marina here in Oriental... Many were putting in at the Wildlife Ramp, but others came to Oriental by river and/or ICW.

These smallish boats have a lot of cruising amenities; two berths in the bow, galley with sink and alcohol or diesel stove, available enclosed head / shower or dinette convertible to two berths plus a third pilothouse seat, 6'5" of headroom.

Last week I featured a "Ranger Tug R21," a similar small pilothouse cruiser, at anchor in the harbor...

One or two Ranger Tugs may be coming in for the meet, as Ranger owners are welcome in the "C-Brats" club.
See the C-Dory manufacturer's site from Fluid Marine.

See the "C-Brats" online forum site.

Hello Ben! Thank you for visiting Arradon Daily Photo blog and sorry for this belated answer. The Guépards are traditional boats in the Morbihan Gulf, they are made of wood and plywood with an aurique rigging (I amn't sure of these words in English...). They are flat-bottomed boats because in our Gulf, there are many places where the sea is not very deep. So, you can go almost every where. I think you can find some informations about them on Google.
I wish you a good weekend!
