The Cape Dory Board

I have a wonderful Triad built to hold both my Pearson Ensign (22' 3,000#) and my Cape Dory 25D but it requires overbuilding the trailer for the Ensign and the bow portions moves depending on which boat. Triad is WONDERFUL!

I have an original set of Cape Dory 25D cabin cushions that have some life left. They are original 1984 Blue. They are not torn but they are worn. They are better than nothing and could make good patterns. I think you will probably have to pick them up in Winnsboro, S.C. I also have cockpit cushion ...

It is with great sadness and Joy that I announce Saga Blue, CD25D, hull 180 has a new owner. Ray Gresham. Saga has had a recent refit with new beta engine, new tan bark sails, new bronze self-tailing winches, new cushions, new canvas, interior new hatch covers where needed, new stove, bright work re...

My friend has what I think is the same problem with his Typhoon weekender. I went sailing with him and notice that he was doing some strange things with the tiller. When I took the helm, wow no weather helm at all. In just a few seconds I realized no weather helm, NO HELM! The tiller was turning ind...

My CD22 had a 9.9 nissan with electric start and it was great! I had the boat in Charleston on the Stono and had to go through Elliotts Cut to get to the harbor and out to sea. The 9.9 would take the CD22 through Eliotts Cut at race tide but the freeboard would drop to about 10 inches. I now race a ...

I have not used it
However a friend has asked that I hold off until he know if his Compac 27 has an engine issue
This engine was pulled from an Annapolis 27

I apologize to you and others viewing this post. The engine is still for sale but I have not had time to take pics and answer questions as I should have. I have been travelling and so has my husband, sometimes not together. Neither of has had time to take pics of the engine or check the engine for y...

I use a torqedo on my Ensign, ( 22' Alberg design). I have about a 7 mile range in 5 to 7 k winds. If it is blowing, our range is reduced. That said, I sail if the wind is blowing more. I have 2 batteries and a plug that allows me to tap into my 12v system. I have never had to plug into the 12v syst...

Get a second battery. With 1 battery, running out of charge was an issue on our lake, but with the second battery--no problem. I also have a plug that fits into the 12v and the battery can run off of my 12v as a last resort, have not had to use that feature. Love my torqedo

Also, I may be able to bring it north as far as Cape Cod

I have Beta 20 Engine with 200 hours for less than 1/2 the price of a new one. Engine, electrical panel, and transmission.


Will not fit in a 25D (that is why it is for sale). I can get pics If interested, email at fran.(nospam) trapp25@(nospam) gmail.com

She is lovely!

She is lovely!

You are so right! I have such a hard time doing that. I think it is because every time I measure it, it is different that the last time. So I keep on measuring!

Hi Joe, Port gaskets were one of the first repairs I did on Saga. I had done them on my CD22 before her. I cant remember how I got the old stuff out but I purchased the Spartan gaskets for all. I think you would have to be very coordinated to get straight gasket material as well fitted as the Sparta...
