Former Chrysler Sailor, with Knowledge to Share
Greetings All, It's been awhile since I've been on here, as we no longer have our 77 Chrysler 22 (The Tigon). A few years back, we moved to a tiny island in the Puget Sound and moved up to a 1979 Newport 30! That said, my blog www.SailingPugetSound.net is mainly dedicated to our time with The Tigon....

1977 Chrysler 22 ::: FOR SALE ::: MAKE OFFER
The time has come for us to move up, and The Tigon is in the best shape she has been in 20 years! All work we've done to her is documented on our blog at SailingPugetSound.net :-) Our requirement is that, if interested, you read through the articles to understand her current state, and make us a fai...

TRAILER WANTED, TO BUY, OR USE FOR LAUNCH
Greetings! I have finished a year and a half restore(mostly in the last 4 months) on The Tigon. I've had no luck finding a trailer. I am willing to buy one. That is appearing difficult, so I would be willing to compensate for the one-time use of one as well. I am in Washington State, at the southern...

Here's my update on the keel bracket
Scott, I'm looking at the second week of June for launch. After waiting 3 weeks for the keel bracket to be made, I discovered that it was never actually being made. I've cut out my middle man and taken the specs and pictures to a fabricator I've done business with before. They have a 2 week workload...

Looking for a trailer to use Sunday(Mothers Day)
Hey Gentlemen! We have finished with our restore of The Tigon and were planning for a Mother's Day launch. The trailer we had lined up, fell through. Does anyone in the Puget Sound area have, or know of, a trailer that will haul our C22??? We live in Olympia and are willing to travel to pick the tra...

I was quoted appx. $500.00 by a couple of places. I'm blessed to have a really good connection that is giving me a smoking deal on my set though...

I'll just clean that locker out good with simple green and then bilgekote the entire area. I'll 5200 the vent covers in. As for the bilge pump, that's the area I was thinki...

Electric Bilge Pump Placement
Greetings Gents,... While I've got Coreth on the dry for repairs(not for much longer though), I am adding an electric bilge pump. I'm curious where the lowpoint will be when she's back in the water. Should I wait to find out & then attack the project, or does anyone have a suggestion? Also, the ...

I'm curious. How do I go about finding a new set of the windows for the pop top?? Do I need to have the custom made, like nearly everything else? ![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
