The CD 22d

[rtwhitman2]

I'm trying to get back into sailing with a Cape Dory after having previously enjoyed 17 years with a CD 33. My current boat of choice is a CD 22d and I'm lucky to have two such opportunities to evaluate. Does anyone know how many 22ds were made and how many are likely to have survived. What was their original sale price? How practical would it be to switch from raw water cooling to a heat exchanger for this model? Also, any information or resources for further study (pro and con) would be very much appreciated.

The paperwork that came with my 1984 22D shows the original purchase price at just over $24,000.
