I had an 80 lb MinnKota Engine Mount Trolling motor on my CD-22 Cruiser and had the same results as Rob above and loved it. Great for slow trolling for trout, etc. I added two more Grp 27 batteries for a total of 4. We could use a Honda 1000i generator or the Yamaha 90 main when...

Re: The EFI status on various Honda engines. My reference was to his 2004 Honda 90 hp and my 2005 Yamaha 90 hp engines and their history during that period. They were the primary competitors for purchase for the C-D 22s during that time, when I was shopping for a replacement for my aging...

tavi- My 2005 Yamaha 90's ECU would not only list the hours at each rpm category, but the diagnostic unit at the dealer would print it out, providing the owner with a written documented record to keep. This could then be passed on to the new owner. The ECU, of course, is the computer that...

kaelc- Most cooler racks are made from stainless pipe life rail fittings, which adapt well to the task, but there are a great variety of materials used and designs constructed. You can see the one I did below, then click below it for further views, and, hopefully, some other C-Brats will also...

Sounds like you need to build a rack up over the engine splash well to get the cooler up off the floor and keep it off the roof as well. This also makes it conveniently accessible. I did this and found it worked great! Only big drawback is the extra weight near the transom, but, as you'll...

If this is at WOT (wide open throttle), you need to take 2 or probably 4 inches out of your prop pitch: down to 13 or even 11 from 15 inches. 4,200 rpm and WOT is really lugging the engine, badly. Joe. :teeth :thup

Ans.: The jack plate moves the whole motor mount up and down to change shaft depth, thus when the regular motor trim is used to tilt back for shallow water drive, the base of the motor mount can be higher by the amount the jack plate can raise the motor above normal un-adjusted height on the...

Here's the boat in question. I see that Bob and I agree that the cabin must be an aftermarket DIY addition from it's style differences compared to the rest of the CD boats. CD -21 Pro-Angler: Joe. :teeth :thup

I hear ya'! Not everybody needs or is comfortable with all this technology that keeps expanding and overtaking us. If I were you, I'd advertise here for someone who wants to trade up to your new equipment that has an older. but still functional set up like, or similar to, what you had. Plus...

I've seen a CD-12 Pro Angler model myself, and mentioned it here around 2000 with photos (actually former C-Brat site). It was in a slip down in Alameda in the SF Bay area. But it didn't have the pilothouse / cabin on it that yours does. It was like the one in the brochure Bob posted. Unless...

Is this what you expect to be carrying in terms of weight, plus ice? (From your album.) "First Fish on the boat 49,33 and 15" lbs Joe. :teeth :thup

As a Wild Ass Non Scientific Guess (WANSG), without further experimentation and testing, I'd guess you have one battery that is internally shorted out (bad cell with + & - lead plates touching) that is causing the other battery to discharge into it and boil the electrolyte in the shorted...
