If I understand your numbers correctly, "all my expenses are under
$6,000".....so if I might ask, where did you get a new Yanmar 2GMF
engine for $3,500?

I doubt anyone else would trade you a keel. Possible, but not very likely.
I changed our keel, Mars Metals took my old keel in trade and saved me
thousands of dollars. They cast me a new beautiful one .
The total cost including pulling mast, labor to remove old keel, ship to
Canada, cast new keel ship back, and install, yard bills was around $16K in
2007.

Subject: Re: Stus-List Halyards
Hello Harold,
I'm new to this Group so, don't know the format exactly.
I changed to high tech lines on all my halyards over the past few years.
My perceived advantages are as follows: less weight aloft (considerable,
maybe equivalent to a man on the rail),
much nicer on the hands if you need to handle the line e.g. "jumping" the
halyard and low to zero stretch/creep. Disadvantage is cost.
I have a question for you. I have a C&C 41 1988 Wing Keel; I'd like to find
a deep keel someone might have for sale...............
could you put out the word for me. I haven't figured out how to access the
classified section as yet.
Cheers,
Niall

Have wire to rope halyards exclusively on my 35-3 1986 . What are the
disadvantages, since it seems most people , when they have to , change to
rope of various types. One I can think of is end to ending when there is
wear, and also less weight aloft, although how much difference that makes on
a relatively heavy boat I dont know. I club race white sail and will have to
change fairly soon because of wear at the jammers and beginnings of fraying
of the wire. I would tend to go with wire to rope again partly because of
the type of sheaves presently employed so need a strong reason to change.
While I am on the site, anyone with a 35-3 full keel who races against a
35-3 with keel centreboard have any idea of performance comparisons between
them. My boat is a centre board version. We do well enough, feel that we do
not point as high as other boats in our PHRF fleet especially in heavier
air, no other 35-3s in that fleet, but we run well and often overhaul boats
that may have got to the windward mark before us.
