    2004 22 Cruiser, $39,500 (Port Angeles, WA) - Da Nag!

    Like the boat a lot and I am in the market. I like red! Any pics of the interior I can easily find? I've been waiting a long time for that special boat here in the Midwest (I am in N MI). That distance out west is the roadblock. Just out of curiosity, anyone have an idea of shipping from...

    Cruiser prices

    What a coincidence... I'm 98% certain I looked at this boat a couple of weeks ago while down in TC. On 23 near Chubbs Corner, right? Used car lot? I was surprised when I discovered after examining the hull that it was a 97. This boat looked pretty rough to me, and with the 50 on it I...

    Mercury 60 HP EFI Bigfoot

    Boston Whaler features the 60 Bigfoot on its 15 ft Sport model, which I purchased in September 06. After two hours, I experienced what sounded like a noisy lower unit at idle. Very disappointing. After an evaluation by my dealer and a Merc rep, they tried a new prop which seems to have...

    Alaska fishing advice

    Lived and fished in Sitka for 4 years. Excellent king salmon & halibut fishing! Yes, the fish caught average much larger than places like Juneau or Ketchikan. Check the stats in local fishing derbies. Plus an interesting town with incredible scenery. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting...

    2006 22 Cruiser, $47,450 (Oakland, CA)-SOLD

    This boat has shore power too. $60K is what the owner told me; that may have included tax (?) and probably boat name on side. His asking price ($47.5K) is below what I was just quoted ($49K) on a minimally equipped demo boat with twin Hondas/trailer from a dealer.

    2006 22 Cruiser, $47,450 (Oakland, CA)-SOLD

    Someone will get a great deal on this boat. It won't be me, unfortunately. I am too far away and shipping is expensive and a worry, and I prefer to spend $40K or less... If you are considering going new and on West Coast, DEFINITELY check this boat out. 2006 tall top, 31 hours, twin Hondas...

    Cost of shipping a 22 from CA to Midwest

    I tried CA boat movers... their guys are all out buliding houses (?) I was told! However, they gave me the name of another transporter... Joel Boat Movers. $2250 to take the boat from Oakland, CA to Charlevoix, MI. But boat must be loaded on & unloaded at owner's expense. My local boat shop...

    Cost of shipping a 22 from CA to Midwest

    I am contemplating in regards to 2006 CD for sale in Oakland. Would be nice to ship with another and pay less but not an option. I live in N MI, 1 hour south of Mackinaw City. Thanks again.

    Cost of shipping a 22 from CA to Midwest

    Does anyone have an idea of cost of shipping a CD 22 from CA to the Midwest? MI specifically. Do shippers load onto trailer or is boat towed on trailer? I expect costs are going up with gas prices. Don't know who to call. Thanks for any info.

    Northern Lake Michigan

    Thanks for detailing your adventures here in N MI. I live in Charlevoix and have been in the market for a 22 for several summers. Right now I get around in a 15ft Mirrocraft. Just not many for sale around here (considering used only w/Wallas) and my wife won't let me fly across country to see...

    2006 22 Cruiser, $47,450 (Oakland, CA)-SOLD

    I see trailer listed but will only consider galvanized tandem axle.

    2006 22 Cruiser, $47,450 (Oakland, CA)-SOLD

    I am interested in seeing the included options (trailer? Wallas?) on this boat. Sent an email off this link but no reply yet. Note to sellers: it's helpful to potential buyers to list all info on options and to list your phone number if you are serious. It is a bit frustrating to not have...

    Family boat?

    We are a family of 4; two children ages 7 & 11. There are many types of boats out there. How does the C-DORY stack up for family type fun? We are considering the 22. I love the boat for its trailerability, low maintenance, economy. Hoping the kids will enjoy it too. Can a 90HP motor pull...

    Let's talk price a bit

    A fellow Marylander has an 02 with 155 hours on a Honda 90 asking $40k. It also has a Wallas. In my opinion you should start lower... I am in the market for used, but am limiting my search to boats with under 200 hours. I'm also stuck on the Wallas, since it's cold up here at the northern...

    missyv has sold

    I spoke with Max last week about his boat. It was still for sale. In response to the questions above, I can add this based on our conversation: full boat cover is matching green; boat has never been in salt water; engine probably has less than 500 hours but there is no hour meter; he will...
