This is a C-Dory that has had little use for its age and been stored indoors or under cover on a lift in a fresh-water marina most of its life. It would be hard to find a C-Dory and trailer of this year in better condition. For the last 8 years, we use the boat for three weeks, taking it...

I want to list my little used 2000 22 Ft. Cruiser but want to add photos and can't figure out how to do it. I click on add attachments, choose an image file, and click preview, and nothing shows up. is there a file size limitation or file type I am Missing? Thanks, Terry

Hello C-Brats, I have a 22ft Cruiser with twin Yamaha 50's. I moor the boat in saltwater in Puget Sound for about a week at a time. I have heard so many conflicting views about tilting the motors up or leaving them in salt when docked. At the marina on Anderson Island I have seen both. I...

I have an iPad Mini with wifi capability and Navionics software. When out on the water, I get it to work by using my iPhone as a hot spot. We are thinking of purchasing a full sized iPad for using the Navionics software. Do the wifi versions have GPS built into them so we could use the ipad...

We just got Tortuga Del Mar to Puget Sound and were able to do some initial cruising in the South Sound. It was a wonderful experience to circumnavigate Anderson Island, where our vacation home is, and to go to some neighboring bays. I noticed that there is a harmonic deep frequency droning at...

I tow my CD22 with a Ford Expedition. It tows easily. I was wondering if a 2001 Travel Lite 21 ft. RV with a Ford E350 Chassis and V8 with Dualies would tow my CD22. Not sure how much the RV weighs, so that would be a factor. I thought I would ask in case someone here has experience towing...

My 2000 CD 22 when I bought it in January came with two aluminum framed screens that appear to be for the side windows. My guess is they came with the boat. When I tried to install them in the interior top and bottom channels, I slid them first into the top channel but they seem to be too...

I did not get back in time to my previous post to edit it and ask this additional question: How much 303 Fabric treatment does it take to treat a cover on a CD 22? Thanks, Terry

I finally put the sunbrella cover on our 2000 CD22 that we bought in January. I washed it with woolite and a soft brush and looking at the outside the cover it looks pretty good. in the cockpit area on the underneath side it appears to have mold or mildew stains; sort of a dark greenish color...

Has anyone done a modification of the dinette converted to a bed where extra width is added for sleeping but can be removed when using the table in it's normal configuration? Thanks, Terry

When I purchased our 2000 CD22 in January, it came with updated twin 2005 Yamaha High Torque 50 HP EFI engines. The props that came on the boat are Yamaha 13.5 x 15K. I had our CD 22 out yesterday for the first major run. I found that in relatively calm water, I could get about 25 mph out of...

I have read many places on the internet that suggest the motors be placed in the down position when towing the boat on its trailer. With Tortuga, I cannot do that because the motors are only about a foot off the ground when down. My album shows the position of the motors resting on their flip...

When I bought Tortuga del Mar, it had the item shown in my album in a box. The previous owner does not know what it is either. It has a crank that rotates only about 270 degrees and does not appear to do anything. Does anyone have any idea what this thing is and what it is used for? Thanks...

Hello C-Brats, I sent a message several days ago as suggested in the FAQ to Mike, TYBOO, to request a photo album be setup so I can upload pictures. I checked my PM folder from messages sent, and don't see a record of it being sent to Mike. I can't expect to have a photo album if the email...

My CD22 has twin 50 HP EFI Yamaha engines. I will be storing my boat on my property at my vacation home during the summer. There may be periods of several weeks when I am not around. I have heard that on occasion, boats that have been left unattended, have their props stolen, and sometimes...

I am going to replace the foam in my 2000 CD 22 V-Berth. The fabric over the foam insert has a zipper all the way around it. It is the factory installed pad and cover. How is the best way to clean the cover before putting new foam in it? My local dry cleaner was hesitant to clean it thinking...

I have read all the threads on Memory Foam in the V-Berth, but I did not find an answer to my specific question. I have a 2000 CD22 recently purchased. The foam in the V-berth sunbrella cover is covered with thin plastic material then the foam. The foam is not mildewed, but has a funny smell...

We bought Tortuga del Mar in January. She is a 22 ft. Cruiser. She came with 250 ft. of 7/16 3-strand nylon rode, 12 feet of 3/8 regular chain and a Northstar 7.5kg (16lb) anchor. The rode has one of the three strands severely frayed at the 90 ft. level. We have no other anchors. Here is my...

I bought our 2000 CD 22 Cruiser in January. I was looking at the flares onboard today and all have a 2000 mfg. date with a 2004 expiration date. There are 8 hand held Orion flares and one orange smoke orion flare. I know I need to purchase new up-to-date flares but wonder if I should just...

Question for 2000 model CD 22 Cruiser owners. My 2000 Cruiser has no plugs that I can see in the V-Birth area. Rapping on the fiberglass makes a hollow sound. Is there foam in your boat? If not and my CD is the same, any reason not to use that space by installing a couple hatches? Terry
