looking for a used 22 cruiser, are there any websites that anyone can direct me too? if you have twin 40's can you fish on one engine?

thanks

Roddy,
C-Brats is the best site for C-Dorys for sale. Check the home page lower right side. When we sold our 22 we tried Craig's List, Boat Trader, et al, but got best qualified inquiries and eventual buyer from this site.

Good hunting.
 
The best place is this web site for used boats. Most of them are not sold through dealers. However a few of the good dealers who post here, have taken trade ins or gotten boats from other sources.

Yes, definately you can troll on one engine--probably twin 50's would be better.
Many of use a single big motor and a kicker, with a separate fuel tank for back up and trolling. There are many options.

The C Dory is a very versitile boat.
 
Just saw a 22 listed on our site, I believe in California, and it looked pretty nice. Look back over the last weeks postings and it should show up.

Roddy,

We looked for a used 22 cruiser for a year or two until we finally found ours. They occasionally come up around the west coast in our area but they appear to sell fast. At the time, the closest was in Alaska so we went for that one.
Port Boat House in Port Alberni is a great place to deal with. As posted, they have a red used 2008 22 cruiser. As we live here in Port Alberni, I have no problem taking more pics for you if you wish.

This is a great forum to get all your questions answered.

Good luck with your search.

Joe and ruth just trade in a really clean low hour 22 with twins to Ranger tug. call Jeff at Ranger and see what they are listing it for. Very clean low hour boat with all the goodies on it.
 
Hi Roddy,
I was not going to put NoddyBleu on the market until spring, but since you are so close I'll tell you now. She is in the water at Thieves' Bay Marina on N. Pender Island, BC. She is the 2007 Miami Boatshow model in the BoatTest video (it is referenced in various postings here, but I can't find them (but you can see it on www.video.google.com and do a CD22 search.))
She is well equipped, has epoxy bottom job to prevent blisters, and has a Road King dual axle aluminum trailer with extra wheel. Power is 2007 90 hp EFI Honda (120 hours) with added fin. The fin is installed without drilled holes, so it is easily removable.
She is registered in BC, so all of the import travail is done with, and the import GST/PST was paid on boat and trailer.
Gimme a call or PM if you want to know more.

In the Northwest Yachting, Feb '10 issue, there is an '08 22 C-Dory Cruiser listed for $48K at Tradewind Yacht Sales, Poulsbo, WA 360-697=4000

Ad says "All options and more". Saw this last night but didn't call today to confirm that they still have it, but I bet they do.

Good luck on your quest. Couldn't have a C-Dory in a better place than Sidney. (I grew up there, something happened and I got saltchuck in my veins.)

Just heard from a very reliable source today, that The Port Boat House in Port Alberni just acquired a very set up (like everything possible) very nearly new 22 Cruiser. Not sure if it is the one mentioned earlier here in the thread, but I don't think so. It just went across the border this week. I would sure give them a call.

If not, I think Matt at Kitsap Marine has a 22 or 25. Nice guy to deal with there too.

Again, Good luck,

Harvey

"LOOKING FOR C-DORY", at first thought i'm thinking well there is a list of various c-dory's for sale, right on the first page of c-brat. so, why not start with that list, the year, price and assorted details are all there.
my second thought was, why not be direct and change the post top read, looking for c-dory at distressed sale price. i'm a direct kind of guy. i have no problem letting the owner know i'm am in this for a deal, and most importantly i let him know right up front. no hard feelings, that's just the way it is.
having said that, some of you may have seen, for a brief period of time, i posted my c-dory for sale. i received many emails asking for info and price, even though i had documented price and info in my ad. i received several lame offers, the offers were made in a simular amateur, fashion, oh, it has this but i want that, type stuff. i removed my ad and decided to keep my boat. anyone who has taken a course in negotiations will tell you, the best deal, on both sides of the table, is struck just before the point where both parties get up from the table and leave. if you are the seller of a boat and after the deal you like the buyer, the buyer paid to much, if you are the buyer and after the deal you like the seller, the seller sold for to little. when neither side is happy with the other, the seller sold for no more than necessary and the buyer paid no more than necessary.
just my way of thinking, what you see is exactly what you get, no hidden agenda.
best regards to all
pat
ps; when i finish a deal, i like the seller!
