Over the last few months have been debating the repower question for the CD-22- just wanted to say thanks to all the CBrats -for their suggestions - that I re-read several times. - I chose Honda 90+Tohatsu 9.9 install with Les this next two weeks.

And Thanks to the three Marine groups that gave their best estimates.

Les/Kathy at EQ Marine - lots of phone/email time = good price on Honda 90 and install and shore power install - and 2 options for trade or sale

- [he still has 2 Classic 8 Hp Hondas for great price] -

Matt at Kitsap lots of time as well on the phone, good trade in options - very fair - creative consignment - in case you want to buy a new one.

Tom, Terri, John and Kip at Toms Outboard, - answered lots of questions, good prices, -

We are really fortunate to have such a great Marine crew in Puget Sound - Thanks -
Good time to re-power - next years prices are a big jump

Thanks again

Hey Jim, Looks like your going from twins to single, what is the shop planning for the transom holes from the 40's? Bolts,washers, 3M-4200? Your transition from twins to single and your years experience with the same boat will make you an authority on the "twins vs single" debate. Enjoy, Hugh

Actually I sold the CDory with twin 40's in October when I found a 22 with a lot of the features I wanted [Radar arch, trim tabs, autopilot, C80, forward Port seat, Bimini with zipper at cockpit to facilitate entry] - it had Honda 75 and while year end prices are ok and before inflation hits, I decided to upgrade to 90 - As you know 75 and 90 are similar engines so hopefully there won't be a lot of change on the transom mount.

I choose single + kicker over twins - because I liked the idea of one engine being completely out of the water most of the time in case I hit something.

CBrats and local Marine shops helped a lot with decision.

Have fun

Thanks for the confirmation on the transom mount.
I really appreciate your input - especially during the discovery phase of my project.

Thanks

Jim
