    19 Angler power options

    Yes, definitely. Your options are the same as on the 22 Angler or 22 Cruiser, 75 to 100 or so hp. Single, twins, or a single and a kicker. In fact, that is because the 19 Angler has, amazingly, the same power requirements to perform as the 22 hulls. I don't think they expected this when...

    16 ft c dory new windows

    Shouldn't be too hard to devise a washer system, since all you'll need is a water tank, pump, spray fitting, and some hoses, wiring, and a switch. Joe.

    16 ft c dory new windows

    Is there room enough around the current window cutouts to round out the curves, making the windows larger, and having a glass shop make safety windows for the new shape/size, and then use the H style rubber gaskets? (Don't forget room for the window wiper motors & mounts and through holes for...

    1983 C Dory 27

    OK, who's up for a real project! Take that blown diesel inboard and Volvo outdrive out and add an outboard bracket and a 200-250 hp modern 4-stroke and you're half way home. Then you'd have to modernize the electronics and refurbish all the interior and systems. The $8000 base price looks like...

    HF Predator Generator vs Honda - HF sale

    Inverter generators produce a true sine wave AC current, wheres most other generators produce more of a "square wave' current. This makes a significant difference when running electronic devices and appliances directly off the generator. Inverter generators first generate the square wave...

    fuel consumption on 2002 22 cruiser w 100 HP yamaha

    So: How would 1 liter per nautical mile compare with 1 statue mile per quart? Simplification: 1 liter per nautical mile equals (~) 1 gallon per 4 statue miles, or = 3.5 nautical miles per gallon. (Full Circle) As usual, your mileage may vary! :lol: Joe. :teeth :thup

    Tomcat 255 repower

    Just a side-thought: Thataway Bob has mentioned before that the best set-up on the Tomcat 255 is to mount the twin counter-rotating engines in the reverse positions they are usually mounted. Are you aware of this? Also, will you have PermaTrims on the engines for trim control and to lift...

    Boat right sizing

    If I found a boat half way or more across the country that, after serious investigation, I really wanted to buy, I'd fly there, inspect, sea trial, and buy it, then rent a pickup truck and tow it home myself to save time, and perhaps money, depending on the circumstances. Could be a pleasant...

    I know I'm a 1985 but what model?

    Just from a "look see" at the Pinterest photo and the 1985 manufacturer's date, I'd say you have an original "Classic" CD-22. These were made from somewhere around 1979-80 'til 1987 when the new hull and cabin shapes were introduced as the "Cruiser" and "Angler", which continue to today. The...

    Not a Ranger, but still nice.

    Up and down, up and down, up and down, etc......................................! Just wait until you're old enough to already have back problems, hip and / or knee replacements, etc. You'll be looking for 1. a boat you can get into and out of without falling overboard or on your face, and...

    Not a Ranger, but still nice.

    Nice, little, cute, tugboat /trawler! A lot of boat for $42,000. I remember discussing one of these about 7-10 or so years ago. IIRC. Lots of vertical scrambling would be involved with that "stacked" interior / cabin arrangement. Might not be suitable for some older folks who make up the...

    Tomcat 24 Plastic Mounted on Hull Side

    I've seen other boats with similar strakes. Fairly common old school feature. I always thought they were spray deflectors to turn away water traveling up the side of the hull to keep it from entering the cockpit and engine well. But that's just an UWAG (Unscientific Wild Ass Guess). Had them...

    Battery charger comparison

    I adapted a Vectron 40 amp automotive battery charger to my CD-22 when I modified the electrical system to use four Group 27 deep cycle marine flooded lead-acid batteries to be able to use a anti-ventilation plate mounted trolling motor for slow trout trolling. One of the several features it...

    propellers for 25 c-dory with twin 90 hondas

    Compared to aluminum props Stainless steel are stronger, harder to bend, slicker (more polished), easier to make in more sophisticated shapes, more expensive, and will give you (properly selected) faster speeds, more gas mileage, less corrosion, and higher repair bills when they're damaged...
