Looks like it's got basically what you need/want. Take a copy of THIS AD
with you and see if you can save a few bucks. It's basically the same boat with fewer hours on it. Equipment is slightly different but not much.

Good luck.

I won't get into all the reasons, but there are a lot of reasons to get a CD22 over a CD19 unless you mostly want it for fishing. A CD19 is just not as convenient for cruising, especially couples cruising. A 2009 CD22 ready to cruise for $39K seems like an excellent price, but I am not a fan of a lot of the changes they made near the end of the Reynolds run, which the subsequent builders did not change back, and a 2004 - 2007 CD22 might actually be a better buy at the same price or even higher. Look at the molded interior of the 2009 and ask how you would customize it, then compare to the Decraguard interior of the older boats. Look at the little plastic gunwale inserts and compare to the way that used to be built right into the fiberglass. Go over this boat and one from before they cheapened it down, from stem to stern, and compare everything. Basically the fiberglass boat is going to last a long, long time, and in the end, a few years newer hull will not matter at all. The older boats are just better boats. Of course engine hours would be a negative on the slightly older boats.
 
Looks like a very nice boat at a pretty reasonable price to me, much less than brand new. Appears to have the Decraguard interior, and it has the hard back/glass door setup, which not all later 22 anglers have but is a HUGE asset IMHO. Not to slight anyone, but the CD 19 is really a "horse of a different color" compared to a 22, so price comparisons don't really apply. Can't go wrong with an EFI Honda 90, especially as it's still under warranty through Honda. You will find this hull to be well balanced and easy handling. I would personally offer a bit less (in cash, separatley financed if necessary), and I bet you have your dream boat. Best of luck! Mike.
 
Can someone give me some info on the Decraguard interior and how to tell the diffrence?

Thanks
 
Mike is correct, it is the Decragard interior, looks like a nice setup, and with a low hour Honda EFI a pretty sweet deal. The Pacific trailers are very nice units

Thanks but the ad is for 19" boat. I am looking at a 22' boat.

The Decraguare interior is built up of pieces of Decraguard covered plywood and easily modified. The other style is a one piece fiberglass molded interior which makes modification very difficult but not impossible. That having been said, I wouldn't want to do it.

Thanks for the info. I really don't see myself making any mods so probably not a big deal for me anyways. Some of the replys say this does have the Decraguard interior?.

Thanks

If I were buying a 2009, I would have a hull survey done.

Just wondering why on a 2009? I am starting to get a feeling the newer ones may not be the way to go.
 
Hi,
I for one would have any used boat surveyed costing 40k. Their are some folks who like the molded interior better. They are reported to be make the boat stronger some dealers have mentioned. Something about molded one piece also reportedly cut down on labor building the boat. If you look at the album of the Pacific Wanderer they can be modified. Some folks are just resistant to change IMHO. On my boat built in 2008 which has a molded interior. Look at my photo album I don't think it looks so bad. I'm going to remove the refrigerator it came with enlarge the opening for more storage and a heater and add a new wood door. I don't see anything hard about it. Sometimes people report on these interior issues (preferences) who have not made any changes to their own interiors and just repeat things they have heard which sometimes are nothing more than a personal preference. What you are really looking for is how any screws that penetrate the core below the water line has been installed. Water intrusion into the balsa core is not good. Trim tabs, transducers and the like should be looked at closely by your surveyor. You could always make an offer contingent on a positive survey report. As for older boats being built better probably so, but they didn't come with hydraulic steering, electric wipers, etc. which are not must haves but improvements many folks want.
D.D.
 
That is because the PM was sent to me!
I will see if I can forward it on to you.

The reason I would have the 2009 surveyed is because
there were some changes made at C-Dory about this time. I would
guess that 99+% of the boats built were great boats, but with
no hull warranty available to you, the piece of mind of having
one done would be a good thing. Plus when buying any
used boat, I would want to know if there was any damage history.

Wow! That was quick!

She appears to have:
Digital antenna - great reception and range (credit Dr. Bob).
Cooler rack - nice....

For the life of me, I can't figure out what that green stuff is in the cockpit. Faux carpet?

Try and find any info when the owner did the motor break in period, have OMS do a compression check, talk to Bill (if he's still around) and take a test ride.

Have fun and good luck.
