Hey NW_boater.

The same boat is listed here with the owner Puget-Sounder. It's near the bottom listed as 1981 C-Dory Classic 22' For Sale.
Good luck!

The above mentioned boat is a bargain for someone who wants a classic, which seems to be well maintained and upgraded. BUT..in 1987, the hull was changed, from the flat bottom semi dory, to a V shape forward, with a little deadrise (V) and the reverse chine, to carry more weight aft, and a better ride of the more modern boats.

Agree with Harvey that 4 good sized people are a crowd in this boat's cabin. The 60 Yamaha, is the same block as the 70, I believe. If so, you may do fine with lower planing speeds in the 15 to 16 mph category. For NW_Boater's uses, I think a standard 22 cruiser would be more suitable. There is also a 'Commuter" version available--it would be possible to make a short double bed between the two seats. (athwartships, forgo the galley, but have lots of room for seating inside the boat...).
