Re: Procedure to step the mast on a CD22?

Thanks everyone for the advice........ The previous owner always stepped while on the trailer, which is my plan. He used two helpers to pull the mast upright, I've see other sailors use a vehicle. I have a flat straight area where I could use my vehicle. Just was not sure if only the top mast shroud...

Procedure to step the mast on a CD22?

Getting ready to step the mast on my CD22 but not sure if all shroud lines should be connected first or just some. I'm thinking the lower front ones might prevent the mast from being raised?

Re: CD-22 at Pensacola

Nice looking CD22, I've got the same #008 but not nearly as pretty as yours.
The Caribbean uV beats them up a bit.

Source for a new CD22 Mast Top Light Assy?

Anyone know of a source for the complete light assembly that is on top of the CD22 mast? I've spent tons of time searching but can't seem to come up with one?

Re: Towing a Dinghy

I'm not sure you would save any money by building your own dingy. Add up the cost of marine grade plywood, paint, varnish, fiberglass matt, hardware and stuff you might discover you are into it for several hundreds of dollars. I know, I did it several years ago. Ended up with a heavy boat that cost ...

Thinning Bottom Paint


I have last years bottom paint about 1/2 gal which is rather thick. Micron 66, what can I use to thin it out? Anybody know. Not sure if it's lacquer or alcohol based or what?

Outboard Size??


I have a CD22 with a 6 hp outboard which is old & tired.
I have a chance to buy a 4hp new but not sure if that smaller engine is strong enough to push this CD22.
Anyone have experience using a 4hp ??

CD22 safety Line Adjuster

Have a broken Life Line Adjuster but can't find a exact replacement. It's the original. Does anyone out there recognize this & who is the manufacturer? One photo shows a sailboat stamped into the adjuster at the pin end. Maybe a clue who is the manuf? Images..... http://picasaweb.google.com/hwh8...
