Who we are?

The CDSOA, Inc. is a national organization of Cape Dory and Robinhood boat owners incorporated in the State of Maryland. We have members from Washington State to Florida and are always looking for new Cape Dory, Intrepid and Robinhood owners to join us. We offer a strong national alliance of Cape Dory boats and have a system in place to charter local area fleets. There are three levels of membership: Voting, Associate and Honorary. Though the emphasis of the organization is on Cape Dory sailboats, we welcome Cape Dory powerboat owners to join as Associate members and to participate in all of our activities.

All members receive our bi-monthly newsletter MASTHEAD as part of their annual membership. And, membership has other advantages too. See Member Benefits for a current list of merchants offering special discounts or benefits to CDSOA members. In addition to this web site, we also have a very active message board, the Cape Dory Board, where all Cape Dory owners are welcome to submit their questions, comments and resolutions regarding our boats. Although membership is not a requirement to take advantage of our web site or the Cape Dory Board, please keep in mind that it is paid for by membership dollars, so why not join?

The CDSOA regularly organizes meetings and events, both on and off the water, in each of our regions. And on this web site you'll find information regarding upcoming general and fleet events, details and contact information regarding our regional fleets, as well as news regarding the CDSOA and its officers.

We also offer a catalog of custom CDSOA items including burgees, hats, T-shirts, monogrammed polo shirts, towels, videos, mugs, and many hard to get Cape Dory brochures. Contact Diana Paquette regarding Chandlery items or visit our online chandlery.
