Thanks John, This would be appreciated and I look forward to seeing them. The toughest part will be designing the runners. There may be a means of mass producing them using a non-rusting light material like Trex. People may prefer to use their own home made boards and just acquire the runners...

Thanks to all for the help and ideas regarding the floor boards. It would be nice to have a set to measure up or use for templates as this would speed up the process. Also pictures of the undersides would give me a good visual idea of the runner/supports. Hopefully I will run into somebody who...

Could somebody out there please take a picture of the bottom of their factory floor boards or point me to a link of same. I have searched the site and can find pics of homemade ones and installed factory ones but I want to see how the factory floor boards are supported underneath. I wish to...

I took in the Sportsman show in Abbotsford this weekend and while talking to a salesman from Port Boat House from Port Alberni, learned that he had just taken in a 2008 used 22 cruiser on trade. Just in case anybody is looking for a used boat in this neck of the woods. Andrew

Roddy, When we scaled Cedar Mist, we were around 4200. 90 and 8 Yamaha on two axle aluminum trailer. No water, 1/4 tanks and little in the way of cruising items. We were towing it down from Fort St John to Port Alberni where we now live. We have a 2006 Ford F150 and find this is plenty of...

Roddy, We looked for a used 22 cruiser for a year or two until we finally found ours. They occasionally come up around the west coast in our area but they appear to sell fast. At the time, the closest was in Alaska so we went for that one. Port Boat House in Port Alberni is a great place to...

Tug, I didn't look into any other rollers as I was hoping and successful in using the factory roller. Colobear, I will try raising the rear of the anchor and see if it will self launch, thanks Andrew

I just recently did the same thing. I wanted to use a 16.5 Claw anchor and after some time searching this site concluded I had a factory Windline BRM2 bow roller as well. It appears that this bow roller is designed for Bruce anchors up to 16.5 lbs and Delta style anchors, from what I could find...

Dusty, Last time I checked with Port Boat House, the C-Dory dealer here in Port Alberni, they advised they would store any Brat's trailer while they were cruising this area. Andrew

Leroy, If it wasn't for the pile of snow we received last year, I would consider one of those portable tents that Canadian Tire sells. We will be moving to our place in Port Alberni this fall and hope to put our 22 into a slip there. We will probably take it out for a couple of months in the...

We recently boat a 2005 22 Cruiser that had been stored in Alaska near some trees and bush without a cover. We have been using Car Beauty Pro Rv, Boat & Aircraft Wax to bring it back. Its a mild cleaner wax. Its sold in most boat and marine stores here in B.C. The hull had a yellow tint to it so...

Marc, Looking forward to it... Andrew

C-Brats, For those thinking about spending some time around Port Alberni, Ucluelet, Tofino, Barkley Sound, etc., the Port Boat House in Port Alberni is a C-Dory dealer. They love the C-Brats and for those wanting to leave their truck and trailer there, they will store your truck and trailer at...

Harvey, There is still a C-Dory dealer in Port Alberni and doing well. Port Boat House is down near the Quay at the bottom of Argyle Street. Andrew

Harvey, You are correct about the good deal on the 22 cruiser in Ketchikan. In fact we thought it was such a good deal that we made a deal on the boat and it will be on its way South to us shortly. It will be finding a home in Port Alberni in the future. We have been waiting many years to...

Can you post the link to the boats for sale, can't seem to locate them. Thanks

Roger, Lake of the Woods is a very large area and would be a nice place to explore and fish. You would need a map/gps etc for the area as there are alot of Islands and different passages. I have fished there near Kenora, Ontario and found a few larger Pike and Walleye. I have worked in The Pas...

Steve, Any particular reason for the Saskatchewan choice? Manitoba has the Winnipeg river system that provides excellent fishing and travels into Ontario water at Green lake. Eagles Nest lodge operates off this river among others. Most of the bigger fish are available including bass, pike and...

I believe we have to pay the PST when we licence it. There is alot of info at:http://boating.ncf.ca/license.html about this subject and the difference between licencing and registering a boat in Canada and bringing in a boat from the US. CAVU. I have a place in Port Alberni, near Ucluelet. I...

I agree. I see more boats available on the East side and they appear cheaper. Problem is that, being Canadian, our dollar has slid again and with the added GST and cost of returning it from the East coast to B.C., the price skyrockets. Hopefully something will show up in Canada, preferably on...
