The owner was kind enough to send me pictures. She is about 2500 miles too far away for me to come poke around to asess any structural needs. But the boat appears to need mostly a good cleaning up (and how!) more than anything, and could make sombody a worthwile project. I wish she were...

Woo--looks great! Can you post contact information? Can you post what the year/hours of the engine are? Thanks

Is there a noticeable handling difference with the small extra weight of the hightop model, up on top? I am 6'2", so this is a close call. Also, has anybody run smarttabs on the 22 boat? I have had good luck with them on a similar sized lobster boat hull, as long as they were rigged to be...

I am looking--from a distance--at several used C-22s. One has twin 40s--carbed Hondas. I don't want to restart the single/twin squabble that I see in the archives, but I do note that most singles are 90s or better, and I assume twins are less efficient than singles. Is performance with twin...

Wow, Roger. Did you get a feel for whether that was a model defect or just something peculiar to your hull? Sounds like the company stood behind the boat, at least.

Thanks for all replies--this group has ton of knowledge and is willing to share, which I much appreciate. Sounds like a C-dory can take a lot more than I can. Bob,if you are interested, I see my old St. Pierre dory is for sale again--she has a dry stack exhaust--run her in the Panhandle and...

Wow--thanks, Discovery. For some reason this boat does not show up on my "C-dory for sale" section. I have tried to pm--would love to see this boat.

Some boat builders are good--or bad--right through their run. Others have good and bad years depending on ownership and management--Chris-Craft being a prime example. Is anyone aware of problems with certain manufacturing years at C-Dory? Or were there any innovations that just failed, or...

I am hoping to get some advice from all the experience on this forum. What are the handling shortcomings/quirks of the 22? I have been fortunate to run a number of boats, but not a c-dory. The most similar were three: a St. Pierre dory with a heavy one-cylinder Sabb diesel in the...

Is she still available? I can't be a buyer until July, but if you still have her then, I would be interested to look at her. I love the cantilevered bimini frame. Sam

I hope by the end of the summer to have a used 22 Cruiser. It will inevitably have a middle-aged engine with a few hundred hours on it. I would be grateful to hear opinions on how the common engines hold up. Obviously, individual condition/maintenance is most important, but with decent...

She was gone before I figured it all out! Thanks for the help.

Hello--I am still looking for a C-22. One guy has a sport cruiser for sale, which seems to have the long cabin like a cruiser (not an Angler) but without the bulkhead and door; their place is taken by drop curtains. I mostly boat in warm weather, so this may not be a big disincentive, although...

Thanks, that is just the kind of comprehensive advice I needed! Sam

I have (again) the cruising bug, and am looking at the C-dory 22, which has the combination of sea-keeping ability and shallow draft I need (plus they just look good). A guy on this site is selling one that has been winterized, then stored for 4-5 years. Twin '05 Honda 40s. My experience with...
