Tortuga has been sold.

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...

Hi Bob, found all the answers to my questions on the forum help. Terry

Thanks, Bob, How do I link to my photos or refer to my album? It has been so long since I have posted here. Sorry for my ignorance. What is the maximum album image size allowed? Terry

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

No bottom paint. Sinks in place and working. Thanks for the info

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...

Thanks for the comments. I appreciate it. When I was getting the harmonic droning, I had each tach set to the same RPM on its digital gage, does that mean I need to change the RPM's so they don't match? Sounds like I need to just experiment some with the two engines. Terry

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...

No spring mechanism in the top. The top channel and bottom channel are solid metal. Strange that the side screens are too big top to bottom for the height of the channels. The frames appear to be in one piece so might be hard to modify them. Terry

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 window has channel completely around it. I have tried sliding it in farther back in the window frame, but same problem.

I had this discussion with my local Yamaha marine dealer, he recommended that I leave the engine down when in Salt. I think part of his reasoning is that when the engine is hot, raising it causes the engine to get salt encrustations. I am not sure if that will dissolve easily when re-immersed...

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...

Thanks, C-Green I will check out your recommendations. The other ideas for keeping from falling off the bed are great ones. Thanks. We just need more width for sleeping comfort. Terry

With the table, I may need a leg. I will have to see. I will probably put a wood strip on the underside of the aluminum plate parallel to the isle side of the box under the cushion. That will provide a "stop" for the aluminum and keep it from slipping out to far. It may require 5/16 thick...

Since I asked the question, here is what I was thinking of doing. First, I want to minimize the amount of rework to the dinette seats and supports. Therefore, I plan to buy some 1/4 in thick high quality aluminum plate that will fit under the seats a few inches with whatever width I want...
