    How to handle the boat

    I measured pretty much how you described. The nosecone ended up 1/4" closer together than the trailing end of the lower unit. 1/8" one way or the other may or may not help, it will certainly be better than toe out.

    How to handle the boat

    Make sure the engines have just a bit of toe-in. Mine came from Sportcraft with 3/8" of toe-out and the handling sucked, bad, just like yours. 1/4" toe-in made a HUGE improvement in handling.

    50 HP on a 22 cruiser?

    I do not know the boat Let me say unless you know what you are doing fixing up a boat to save money often ends in disaster. A running boat is a much better investment in time and money for the average person.

    Increased towing capacity? 16' to 19'

    IIRC U-Haul won't rent trailers to CJs, YJs or TJs. The Scrambler's longer wheelbase helps a small amount but I don't believe you should tow the bigger boat. Your narrow axles, height and light weight are working against you here.

    That is an accurate assessment.

    50 HP on a 22 cruiser?

    That boat is a redheaded step child and a bastard. 15 hp would give you just as much usable speed. At anything over hull speed the 50 will be screaming it's guts out and you will soon tire of the futility and racket. The C-Dory 22 was designed for at least 75 hp and it needs all of that.

    Right after Labor Day is ideal. The usual crowds disappear and the weather stays good for another 2-3 weeks.

    Dealing with Chop

    Even simple things such as placing your heavy cooler forward in the porta potty space will help.

    Deck hardware and sleeping in toilets: how tough is it?

    Lake Chelan is a lively little pony, that's for sure. I've read accounts of C-Dorys being deliberately lifted by their cleats by the factory.

    '03 22 Cruiser Work in Progress

    My boat had the same issue though the wet core was not extensive. I drilled test holes till dry core was found and was able to remove most of the wet core. I taped off the holes except for the end ones as they were pretty much in a line. I got an aquarium air bubbler pump to move air through...

    Thanks to The Management (Two Part)

    1) I made a change to my profile which deactivated my account. Before I could figure a way to contact someone about this "The Management" had it taken care of. 2) As other forums I browse spiral downward into bickering and monkey slinging poop fights, C-Brats stands tall and stays above the...

    Wallas stove

    These stoves demand high, clean voltage. A healthy battery, every single connection to and from the battery must be clean and tight. No corroded fuses or holders. The connection where the hot and negative leads hook to the stove sometimes need a squeeze in addition to cleaning to keep it happy...
