We originally had the single axial EZ loader that came with the older CD 22 cruisers. It was underwt and was not adequate for the boat. We bought a new "King" tandem axial trailer in 2004 with the stainless steel surge disc brakes. We have had caulkins and other trailers and I swore I would...

Initially we pulled our 1991 22 crusier with a ford ranger 4.0 liter V6(max tow wt around 5600#). The total wt of the CD,trailer and gear was around 4300 to 4500#. The ranger had plenty of power for around puget sound and did fine however it would be under powered to go over the mountain passess...

Thank you Fred, Marc and Mike. Good information and each of your comments are appreciated. I was wondering Mike/Steady Eddie - I assume you still have your twin 40s on your angler. If you were repowering would you go with the twins again or with a single/kicker combination?

Sea bugle- just read your note and could not resist replying. Anyone who has been boating for anytime should be able to relate perfectly. We mostly boat in the San Juans and Guld islands and sometimes I lie awake at night thinking back to some of the situations and ask myself what are we...

Thanks Cris M. Thats the type of info I'm looking for. Anyone else?

Thanks Jenny for your input. The new Honda 90's are 359# plus a 8 hp "classic " at 79# is about as light as I can find - this is still about 100# heavyer than my current Johnson 70/8 hp combination. What I'm really trying to find out is if the additional wt of the 4 strokes are going to...

We have had our 1991 22' cruiser for 12 years and are starting to consider repowering. Would probably go with the EFI Honda 90. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has repowered from the older lightweight Johnson 70 HP 2 stroke to the current heavyer 4 strokes (75 to 100hp range)...
