I'd like to ask the C-Brats running twin 40 hp. motors on the 22 cruiser what pitch props they are using and what prop experience and advise they may have to offer. Carpy has twin Honda 40's and currently has 11 1/8 x 13 stainless props. My WOT is about 5200 rpm. I run both Permatrims and...

I am reinstalling radar on Carpy using the scan strut mount that was on the boat when I bought it. It has a 7 inch rise. I want to keep the 12 inch tall roof rack that I have been using to carry our inflatable kayak, spare fuel jugs, etc. I did a test fit of it all today and I like the way it...

I thought I’d give a field report from Carpy. After a few months of seemingly endless work on the winter projects, we wrapped them up and took off for Florida on 2/8. We’ve just come back to Sanford Boat Works on the St Johns after almost two weeks on the water. We have had a delightful time...

Carpy launched this evening on the St John's River at Sanford Boat Works and will meandering about for two weeks or so. We are very happy to be back on the water and will have an eye out for C-Dorys. Bruce & Joyce

I have a question about the setup of my EZ loader trailer. My 22 has been on this trailer for 10 years without any trouble. While on a 5500 mile trip this fall the bow roller wore a rather deep "divot" where the bow met the roller. I always attempt to have the bow winched tightly against...

Let's hear about winter projects, Here are Carpy's Motors: I staretd about a month age with routine maintenence, new plugs, lube, filters etc. A new impeller in one motor the other water pump needed a full rebuild. After consulting with Colobear and Hunky Dory this summer (they have the...

I'm hoping the collective wisdom here will help me resurrect my autopilot. I have a 2001 ST8001 control unit with a M81188 Linear Rudder Positioning Sensor. The thing has been wonderful when its working. I use it mostly crossing big water and the auto steeris great to relax a bit at the helm...

On our recent trip to Florida, we thought we would take Carpy out onto the Atlantic, mostly just to say we had. We had come across the Okeechobee waterway to Port St. Lucie and we headed out the Port St. Lucie Inlet. There were breakers, 4-5 ft. The ride was rough, Carpy was doing fine and we...

We are anchored in Spring Garden Creek in the Lake Woodruff Wildlife Preserve off of the St. John's River, Florida. It is a beautiful wilderness area here. It will be in the upper 20's tonight. Our ice is holding up well. We're cosy in the cabin. The Wallis is keeping us comfortable. The...

My sweetie had my boat done in stained glass. I tried to post a picture here, but my computer does not like firefox. So not knowing how to post it here, i put it in my album. Check it out. Bruce Cassal "Carpy"

I am interested in adding a swim platform to the transom of my C-22. I have twin engines and trim tabs. I think this is possible. I recall seeing one on C-Cakes at Guttenberg this year, but I didn't get into the details with Barry at that time. I like the platform with the ladder steps that...

I am going to be carrying kayaks on the roof of my 22' cruiser this year and I am going to need a taller anchor light. I need to replace the 24" Perko that came with the boat with one about a foot taller. I would like to use the existing base which, as near as I can tell, l is Perko #1125. I...

We just finished our Erie Canal trip, less than a week before Hurricane Irene pretty much destroyed our take out destination, Amsterdam, NY. There was water at least 5 feet over the lock walls. A historic house by Lock 11 was wrecked. It had stood there since 1716. Floodgates at the lock/dam...

I am planning a two week cruise on the Erie Canal in mid August and am finally getting down to working on the details. I would like to launch on the western end and travel east. I will meet some family on Cayuga Lake and maybe take the Oswego Canal up to Lake Ontario. I am not finding many...

Hello Everyone, I have finally posted some pictures! After lurking on the web site for a year or more, I bought a 22 cruiser in December of 2009, the former "T-K Grand". I spent the summer of 2010 as sort of my shakedown season. I took trips on the Ohio River, Lake Michigan, 2 trips to the...

I need to replace a few of the snap fasteners on my C-22. These are the ones mounted to the hull that hold the snaps on the canvas. They are fixed with a rivet and nothing appears on the inside of the hull. I am reluctant to drill these out without understanding how these work and how I will...
