Anybody know how Redfox attached his saddletanks to the hull?? I see that he used brackets, but could not discern how the brackets were attached to the hull. Thanks.

I am repowering a 1983 22' Classic and am leaning towards a 115 hp. This is largely due to my concern that a 90 just won't quite do it when I am loaded with guys, gals, and gear. The issue with a 115hp 4-stroke Yamaha is that it weighs 401 lbs (a 90 hp weighs 369 lbs) and I am concerned...

Long time reader, first time poster............I've always enjoyed the C-Brat site and its knowledgeable owners. I've spent years on the water, but only recently on a C-Dory. Until recently my experience has been with the displacement and deep V variety. Yesterday, a friend and I went looking...
