Thanks. i will probably have to call the US ones too...

Hi all, as things seem to be improving I was wondering what the best sources of information are for finding out if one can cross from Canada to the US as a Canadian in a boat... If one has had both vaccine doses, do you need a negative test etc etc. Thinking about heading to the San Juans in...

After a few years (I guess almost 8!), the tape let go and left a bit of residue, but that is not too unexpected.

Thanks for the detailed overview of the construction of CD22s. I am going to find out if this is a warranty issue, and if not I will likely make an access port for the cockpit floor and seal off the places were it has been drilled.

When I had the cockpit fill with water (another story), when I drained it, I saw water spurting out of the tiny hole in the cockpit floor by the stbd gas tank!

I get it now. That would be the lowest point of the hull under the cockpit floor. Thanks.

Thanks, I think the back will work for both trailer and in the water as the bow seems to be high in both cases. Would this be a warranty issue?

I have a 2011 CD22 and it seems that water has been leaking into the space under the cockpit floor from screw holes that were used to attach the sheets that cover the gas tanks. Any suggestions on best way to fix? I am wondering if I should make an access hatch to the cockpit floor so that it...

Just confirmed that I am guiding in Haida Gwaii July 3-10, so won't be able to make it...

When drilling through the deck (I am installing a bow ladder as per the photos in Sea Wolf's thread) in the area where the non skid is. Should I bed the bracket with 3M 4200 or something?

Thanks. Perfect! I was expecting more and had some 2 1/2 inch bolts around, but I think they will be too long. Sounds like 1 1/2 inch will be plenty.

Does anyone happen to know how thick the deck is on the bow of a CD22? I need to bolt a ladder mount through the deck and would like to know what length of bolts to get before I drill...

I am guiding in Haida Gwaii until at least July 2nd (not sure about whether I am doing July 3 to 10 as well), so I can't commit to doing that at the moment.

which one do you have? I can check the specs to compare. Mine is about 4 years old I think...
