The Cape Dory Board

Hi Peter, I am no expert on sails but I have bought a few. You can get used sails that are in good shape for very little money. Try the sail warehouse or Minney's. You have to know your sail plan. You can get those numbers on the net several places, sailrite is one. It may even be on the Cape Dory s...

Hi all, I hope I don't bore you non-22 'ers but several CD22 owners are interested in a bimini and I am trying to make a pattern. We need in put from some of the larger boat owners also. Let me also say that I don't think I should quit my day job to do canvas work. That said, I am going to give it a...

Thanks John. The motor is adjustable and it is fully adjusted, I will still need to use a wedge. I think this motor mount is for a 4sk and my new motor is a 2sk--a lot smaller and lighter. I ordered my builder's plate yesterday, and the guy at Bristol Bronze said that the CD22 wa originally equipped...

Well, I am finally ready to go. :D Got the new motor (never been wet Tohatsu 9.8 2sk) on the boat and run in. I hate my motor mount. It was on the boat supporting the 2001 Honda 8 hp 4sk. Its a huge stainless steel and rubber contraption that leaves the new motor at an angle. I don't see the point i...

I have been getting few pm's about the bimini project for the CD22. I have answered each-- but here is some more information. Here is Becky's link: http://blog.oldragbaggersonline.com. There you can see pics of her "Tough Cookie" before Katrina wearing the bimini. I will try to get the boo...

Hi, Becky (Oldragbaggers) sent me a beautiful bimini for a CD22. Her only request was that I pass it on. I am going to keep the bimini and put it on "QT"-- I know some of you questioned whether a bimini will work on a 22, I will let you know. I received the canvass only. It will take a few...

Gary M, I would love to see a pic of yours. I will take some of mine next weekend. Sea Hunt, she is hull 12. Apparently, her owner abandoned her and the marina had her sold at auction. She is beautiful and I feel very lucky to have her. The bright work needs some attention but otherwise she is in gr...

Thanks for the posts everyone. Barfwinkle, I am going to join within the next couple of days. After this post, I am heading home. Gary M, I will try to get pics next weekend. We are inland and the boat is on the coast :( --Hopefully we can get down next weekend. We have only moved her from one slip ...

We have a new to us CD22. She is so cute. Beautiful teak inside-- needs some work on the exterior teak-- but we will get it done. Inside is perfect with new cushions and teak in pristine condition. I does not have a bimini. I was wondering if anyone has any plans or measurements. Also, the anchor is...
