The good news is the C22 performs very well under the Genoa alone. If you get the bug to go for a sail before you get the new main then go for it. I had my 22 out that way many a time. I think it's one of the best ways to rig when the wind gets up a bit. Glad you at least got to motor around for a b...

Terrence, If you are interested I have two motors up for sale, A 7.5 merc. and an 8.0 johnyrude with a charging output. Both run good and are extra long shafts with pull starts. The merc was on my 22 when you and I took her out and the johnyrude came on my O'Day. Give me a shout next time you are ov...

Just purchased a yamaha 9.9 extra long shaft, four stroke with electric start and the shifter on the tiller. The yamaha weighs in at 102 lbs and is the lightest four stroke in it's class. It is the high output model. The engine is a mid 2000 model with very little run time. Brand new they run about ...

I'm in the same place. I recently took advantage of this weak market and bought an ODay 272 for less than 3,800 that in a healthy market would fetch over 7,500. This sword cuts both ways, I offered my C22 and trailer without motor to a gentalman for 1,400 a couple of days ago. I have the feeling I'l...

Iv'e seen electric wench's with back up manual handle at northern tool for around 60.00. The plastic case they are in would have to be modified somewhat, but they come with several feet of remote control cable and are rated for 1500lbs. If you pay attention to the wench you can hear it when it is al...

The C20 and the C26 are closer cousins as far as hull design goes. It's funny how the C22 is a totaly different beast. As far as predrilling goes, The ones I bought were not predrilled either. I fit them them, marked them, then drilled. I also had to do some final fit as well. You could drill one ho...

Sound great!! I finished up a little wood working project on the 272 in the driveway then we headed out to the lake for an over due date with the C22. Like you we had great sailing conditions here in E. TN. I elected to go with the Genoa only and had her standing tall a couple of times. These are gr...

For a replacement jib there are many sail options on the web. Just type in jib sail in your search engine. You'll get listings for new or used. As far a the remote control cable goes, I could only wish I had that problem. I think boats our size with remotes are far and few between. I've heard that C...

First and foremost, welcome. I say, if it worked for the PO, then stay with what works. If they are loose, then maybe something to hold them in place. You'll never have to worry about them becoming water logged. You can check out some older post about guys having to cut up there boats to remove soak...

My anchor light is a solar charged garden light that I have rigged on the back stay. Works good for the lake. As far as the steaming light goes, I always understood the lighting configuration as follows; under sail alone a sailboat is to display a 240 deg white stern light and the usual bow red and ...

Sounds like a nice weekend. The first mate and I took the 22 out for a sunset cruise one evening last week. Hardly any air moving so we motored for a while then drifted for a while. When we came back in to the marina our dock neighbor was on his boat, so we stuck around for a while and caught up ove...

I did mine over gravel, not fun but can be done. You'll want to use some plywood to act as a skid plate. You will also want to use an engine hoist to manuver that thing around, it's a beast. After I got the keel out of the boat I just pulled it out from under the boat with my truck and a chain. It n...

Hello and welcome. I used a 5hp game fisher single cylinder on my C22 for a while and it pushed the boat just fine. The single cylinder caused some vibration. I now use a mercury 7.5 twin and it is very smooth, which is nice for those time when the wind is down but ya still want to take the boat out...

I have a 7.5 extra long shaft mercury on mine and it really works well. It will push the boat at around 6 mph all day at 3/4 throttle. I wish it was an electric start with remote controls. I just bought an Oday 272 and as bad as I hate to I'm going to take the plunge and purchase a 15hp 4 stroke wit...

Hello and welcome. I owned a 20 for a while and I second the mast raising system option. Much more control and much safer. I recommend a gin pole system. Go ahead and make dedicated lines and keep everything in one bag. I had no problems on the ramp while launching the boat, didn't seem to have too ...

Hello and welcome, I owned a C20 for sometime, you will enjoy the boat. Maybe crawl aft to inspect the thru hull mount beneath the cockpit just to make sure someone in the past hasn't made some modification. Other than that the post assy should just slide on out. I always backed the back of the boat...
