The Cape Dory Board

I'm selling my Cape Dory 28 and trading up to something more comfortable for when we retire and live aboard. We've done a huge number of improvements on an already very good boat with a practically new engine. Improvements include new chain plates, new non-skid, new electrical wiring, new electric p...

I used Kiwigrip for the non skid. It comes in a beautiful sand color. I get lots of positive comment on it.

We, like probably many others, found getting access on our CD28 to our side deck fittings from below (i.e. stanchion backing plates) very frustrating with the headliner so difficult to get behind. We think we've found a good solution: we cut away the headliner side lips and then covered the missing ...

Hi All,

We're holding an Open House tomorrow April 13 for our CD28 Andiamo at Shaw's Boat Yard, 86 Main St. Dighton starting at 10 a.m. Come take a look. She's for sale.

We think she's the best looking CD28 available today.

Take a look.

The Open House will be at Shaw's Boat Yard in Dighton, MA. Here are a few pictures, including new photos of the newly renovated interior. We p...

I'm doing the same thing for my CD28. However, I had Garhaurer bend the traveller to fit the curve of the deck (they did this for free! amazing customer service) and then I bent a piece of teak to fit. The teak is soft enough to bend just using C-clamps. I'm waiting until the warm weather comes befo...

Hi all,

I've created a web page for my Cape Dory 28. If you or anyone you know is interested in buying a really nice one, please pass this on.

I posted this a couple of days ago, but here is a link to the pdf I've created with all the important details. This is a really sweet boat in excellent condition. My wife and I have put a lot of time and money into it, and we hope it goes to someone who really appreciates this excellent pocket cruis...

I've created a new much more detailed PDF with lots of pictures for anyone who's interested.

Hi Jim
We're skiing in Vermont this weekend. We live in Easton MA and the boat is in Dighton MA. We'd love to show it to you. Let's talk this week.

Andiamo: a 1978 Cape Dory 28 for sale in Dighton, MA. Repowered with a new Volvo Penta diesel in 2007. Engine only has about 300 hours and looks practically new. We did a major overhaul in 2013 including 1) replaced internal chainplates with much stronger silicon bronze external chain plates, 2) pai...

Hi all, I'm thinking of studying for my 6 pack USCG license. Has anyone gotten one? Do you have any advice? I see that Boatwise offers a course for $1,000 in Braintree, MA this spring. I'm wondering if its a good idea. Does anyone know whether getting the license will result in work opportunities. I...

Check out Earl's in Fairhaven. This is our second year there and there is another CD "Chartly" as well. It's a straight shot across Buzzards Bay to Woods Hole. The sailing in the harbor is flat and often windy. I think you'll find the prices more to your likely. Ask for the manager Kevin a...

How hot is hot? Mine normally runs at about 195 F.

And here she is after being launched in June.
