Ken Are you part of Dave's Cape Breton crew or do you have your own boat in Baddeck? We took the shrouds off at noon today and DAve is dropping them off to Sandy at North tommorrow. Am hoping they fit with some sort of open turnbuckle or something else equally simple Note that we plan to take our J27 to BRW next summer rather than doing Charolottetown Race week. Our friends had their C&C 99 there this year and really liked the format Mike

Would you mind taking a photo or two, perhaps once the change is made? I'll eventually see the end result on Koobalibra in the Bras d'Or this summer but by then I'll probably have forgotten Dave had the turnbuckles changed. Ken H.

We have had a lot of issues with the factory barrells as the set screws rust in place and other issues. Is very difficult to adjust rig tension with this setup. Yes still rod rigging. Another 115 is now called Pandora and was Triumph - owned by Peter Bromley and also at RNSYS. I believe he changed to wire and open turnbuckles a few years ago. Sandy MacMillan of North Sails contacted Dave and has a plan to change over the turnbuckles to something more workable. We are lucky since North Sails locally took an interest in the C&C 115 fleet and hosted a tuning seminar in May for the three 115s at RNSYS with Andreas Josenhans, Sandy MacMilaln and one other 115 sailmaker out of Florida. Andreas also watched the entire premier fleet including the 115s at the Prince of Wales race in September of this year. Lots of photos and suggestions for making the boats go faster and the crews sail better. Great boats to sail esp in 13-18 knots!

We are meeting with them tommorrow. If anyone is interested I can update on what type of system is replacing the barrels currently in use.
