The Cape Dory Board

Ned, After looking at a few mfrgs., I bought a trailer from Triad in CT 2 years ago. It is a very well -built trailer - a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. There are options available 7 each trailer is custom built. I wouldn't hesitate to trailer my boat across the country with this trailer....

Thanks to all for the help. Looks like Hamilton Marine is the place. Checked w/Bristol Bronze who had bronze half ovals but at more than double the price for brass. After some weathering, will probably not see much difference between the brass & bronze

Thanks for the reply, John. I will certainly give it another "go". I was looking more specifically for strakes which are of minimal length. From what I have seen, minimum lengths for purchase are 12-16' with a minimum price of $118/length. Kind of an overkill for strakes but I guess it wou...

Has anyone found a recent source for either &/or both of the above items?? Have not had any luck with Spartan, Jamestown, etc.

Harken also makes a smaller unit which works on my weekender

Thanks to everybody for your input/help.

I also have a Weekender which my son & I step & unstep the mast w/little difficulty. I have no conception as to how one person can do it alone. My thought was to move up to a 22 & didn't know if such presented any unforseen circumstances.

How much more difficult is it, if at all, to step the mast of the CD22 vs the Weekender -- weight, height, etc.
