Here in sunny california our freeways are so bad that towing with a single axel is just painfully bumpy for both the tow rig and boat, it can be done but a dual axel heavy trailer rides so much nicer :D
The beam for the different models is critical:
1. CD22 = 7’8” beam, reason why I moved up to the CD25
2. CD23 = 8’ beam, learned something new its larger than the CD 22

Zodiac Cadet Aero 230 dinghy fits in the cockpit on a CD25 & is easy to lift & inflate while its in the cockpit.
That doesn't sound all that impressive but trust me its not easy to find a one and also have a photo showing everything including the motor fits in the cockpit out of the way...
Congratulations on your boat purchase.

2. chain in the bow locker to balance the bow to stern weight
3. permatrim
will make your CD22 run better in heavy choppy seas.....
each of these changes will be like a totally different boat, have fun and enjoy!
