Blue Mesa Reservoir, CO port of call (Cebolla River arm) @ 8000 ft. Near Gunnison, CO. Caught many nice rainbows, browns, and lake trout on this recent trip in October 2020. Fresh Fish was a fabulous boat to stay aboard.

Nice to see you are traveling around Colby. I'm sorry for your issues, but of all people, you are one to take em on and beat em. Been to many a boat show, and all the seminars put on by boating experts all say that fuel issues are usually the cause of most problems. good for you chasing it all...

WOW. What a great trip that must be bein out on the gulf in your CD22. Big sky and big water and a reef below you full filling up the sonar unit with marks. When I lived in IL, I used to go down to Gulf Shores, AL and work the off shore reefs and oil platforms in my CD16. Really enjoyed that...

As usual, Dr. Bob is spot on about the work lights and RED LED's. I use a bright red LED flood work point the stern to illuminate my night fishing on Lake Michigan for big Chinooks. It works perfect: didn't have any problems identifying my lures etc, and didn't attract nearly the insects that...

BTW: CONSAN is not toxic to the paint on FRESH FISH, and does not stink. I saw no damage to any parts of the boat as the material is made to be used around lawn and garden areas. I did wear gloves, but did not need a respirator when working in confined parts of FRESH FISH.

I bought a CD22 located in Virginia. Had a marine surveyor put it through it's trials, and when I picked up the boat, it was absolutely infested with black mold in so many locations, that I almost walked away from the deal (why the mold wasn't on his report is beyond me). I did not want to...

Lake Granby, CO 8-11-20. This lake is set at 8,500 ft elevation. Found this great cove on the CO river arm. Quiet and peacefull for a fish fry.

Close up of previous picture of Lake Granby, CO tie out. Unbelievably quiet with more stars then I've seen in many a year.

I bought my CD22 Cruuser from a guy in Chesapeake Bay that had her in the water WAAAAAAAy too long. When I brought her home, I was facing several layers of badly applied bottom paint, and a whole bunch of barnacles attached to the bottom, the trim tabs, and the gimbal on the motor. I solved this...

Agree with the folks above regarding Angola, in Indiana as the shop to go with. They were $1,000 for a well fitting cover in February of this year. They made the whole cover via pattern and shipped it to me within a week of putting down a deposit. I had them extend the cover further down the...

I have taken a Lenco apart, and have a number of photos on my CBRAT photo page posted of what's inside a the actuator. Please klick on my photo album to the left and see if the photos can help you. Feel free to email me if your have any questions. I'm happy to provide my phone number via PM if...

I know several charter captains on the east side of lake Michigan that use the AP/15 hp set up you described. They use this set up all the time to run their boat while they manage their gear. The only drawback is the little or no amperage thru the 15 to charge your batteries. If you want to...

A few weeks ago, I found my starboard side Lenco trim tab actuator, or piston, or whatever they're called, had pulled away form the SS trim tab. I replaced the tab, and took the damaged piece apart. I decided to post the photos in my photo album in case anyone else wants to see what the inside...

If this post is still about Yamaha VS Suzuki... Just went through a re-power of my CD22: a brand new Yamaha F115 installed on my CD22 here in CO. Will be going through the break in period in the next couple of days and will post on the performance of the Yamaha F115 here at 6,000 ft elevation...

Well folks, Angola Canvas in Indiana came through again with a fine job of fabrication for a cover for my CD 22: Fresh Fish (click on link to the the left for photos). THANK YOU ANGOLA CANVAS FOR A JOB WELL DONE! Full credit for the design goes to a fellow C Brat in New Hampshire. Name...

Side Zipper! My favorite feature (again) copied from another C Brat post. Thank you.

Cover at stern side view.

New cover by Angola Canvas in Feb 2020. Sunbrella. Side zipper shamelessly copied from another C Brat. Thanks for the great idea.

Nice transition at the bow. Fits perfectly.

Added the cover over the motor well to keep water from forming ice in the low spot. Works great.
