CD25D Dodger
Can someone direct me to a reliable constructor of a dodger for my CD25D? A dealer preferably in the CT/New Haven area would be best but anyone with experience making them for the 25D would be fine.

Re: CD25D Dodger
My (new to me) CD25D has a dodger and it is very well made. I think it was a company on Cape Cod. I won't be down to the boat until next weekend, but I'll look it up for you.Jim Jamieson wrote: Can someone direct me to a reliable constructor of a dodger for my CD25D?

Re: CD25D Dodger
I had one built by Island Nautical in New York, it fit great and looks good. We love it.

Re: CD25D Dodger
I personally have had two dodger's on my 25D over the 13 years I have owned her. The original one was built by Paul McSorley Sailmakers in Bedford, NY (I think). It had a nice heavy duty stainless frame,nice shape & fit. Most recently John O'Neill Sailmaker's in Waterford, CT made the replacement. I don't think John does his own stainless work as I used the original frame. John's sewing craftsmanship, fit and detail are superb. I recommend you have zippered bow pockets installed as well as a zippered roll up front window.

I talked with Mr. Hild (I think that was his name) last winter about a dodger, he seamed very pleasant and knowledgeable. My only concern at the time was that their standard frame was alumium (sp) but he also stated that they had "never" had a frame returned for repair (I think that was how the conversation went). Anyway, I didn't buy the dodger then, but may well do so this winter, or a friend and I may make one. To the point, could you send me some jpg's of your dodger so I can look at the layout. Please dont send to the above address, but to williams@health.state.ok.us instead?????
Thanks Very much
