.....Noticed this today on Seattle Craigslist. I don't know the owner or the boat but thought it might be of interest. Perhaps someone has already noticed and posted.... https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/boa/ ... 14940.html

I lost the powerhead on my 2011 BF 90 last year due to a cracked thermostat housing. I have replaced the engine with a new one but have the lower unit available should anyone need one. It has about 450 hours on it and has been professionally serviced annually. It is pre drilled for a Perma...

I removed a Norcold DE 0051 Fridge from a C Dory 25. It is the "standard" fridge installed by the factory in 2006. The boat only has about 175 hours on it so the fridge has seen very little use. It works fine but I replaced it with a small freezer. It is available and located near Anacortes WA...

Seems like these are few and far between. A bit small for me but might be great fun for someone. One can get a good 16 for less $ if patient. I saw one of these on board a large trawler as their dinghy in the San Juans a few years ago. https://tinyurl.com/yxg9chwr

Has anyone transom mounted a 9.9 hp or 15 hp kicker on a 25 with trim tabs? I have seen several using a mini jacker to push the outboard out to provide clearance for the trim tabs. Most of the mini jacker installations require a 25 inch shaft (extra long). If there is room to mount a kicker on...

I just posted a long note about our experience with a Honda 90 Engine Failure. I won't repeat that here but will talk about the insurance part of that event. I have used Boat U.S. Insurance for the last couple of years. They work with Geico Marine Insurance. We have an agreed value policy...

Well shoot, there we were, approaching Dodd Narrows south of Nanaimo on the way to Desolation Sound and the Broughtons. We had left the San Juans the afternoon before, run to Montague Harbor overnight and left early that morning to catch slack tide at Dodd. About one mile south of Dodd...

I have a CD 22 with an injected Honda 90 running a Honda Solas 13.5 inch diameter X 15 pitch aluminum 3 blade prop. This is the standard prop and what most folks start with. It works but I think it can be fine tuned maybe. When heavily loaded for cruising I can achieve about 5200 rpm. The WOT...

For those of you who have followed this boat through it's restoration... I last saw it at Bitterend Boatworks in Bellingham. Someone posted recently that it was for sale at Inside Passage Yachts. Looks like it will have a new owner soon! http://insidepassageyachtsales.com/boat ... n-6374317/

A few dinghy manufacturers are making light weight RIBs in the 7 to 8 1/2 foot length range. Some in aluminum and others in fiberglass. Weights can be as low as about 75 to 85 lbs. The V in the bow on some is fairly shallow, making storage on the cabin roof less cumbersome than a deep V, which...

I came across several threads on the site on the aluminum TimberCoast 22 by Bartender and realized that this boat is for sale at EQ Harbor Marine on Whidbey Island. I think it may be the only one built in aluminum. Designed by Tad Roberts a naval architect on Gabriola Island. An interesting...

Does anyone have any experience with these? I was wondering if there are significant improvements over the previous Wallas combo stove/heater units from Scan that some folks have had issues with over the years? I was looking to install a heater only since we often cook on a Coleman propane...

Fisheries Supply is having their one week sale on Standard Horizons VHF hand held and fixed mount units this week until 17 April if anyone is looking to upgrade or add a unit. At least one AIS receiver unit is on sale. http://www.fisheriessupply.com/sitesear ... earch=true

Has anyone done the work to place a water tank in the bow of a CD 22? It would involve cutting out the deck under the bow cushions, removing the foam, sizing and placing a new tank, installing a new fill port and running lines aft to the sink. Advantage is moving weight forward and freeing up...

I noticed an 88 CD 22 with a newer 4 stroke Suzuki 90 and 15 hp kicker (2004) and a 2013 double axle EZ Loader trailer at Sportcraft in Oregon with an asking price of $24,950. Might make a nice deal for some one after having it surveyed. lt is on the second page of their preowned boat tab...

We recently purchased a 13 lb Rocna for use on the CD-22 Cruiser with a V700 Lewmar Winch. The existing bow roller is a Windline BRM-2, which came with the boat and seems to be well suited for a Bruce or Lewmar Claw type anchor. We thought replacing the 16.5 lb Lewmar Claw with a Rocna would be...

Hi, by way of introduction we are Phil and Jan Barnes of Colorado Springs CO and Orcas Island WA (at least for part of the summer). We have benefited from this site for a long time beginning when we were first evaluating C-Dorys and then after we purchased a used boat and began to outfit it and...
