This is a project I will do next year or maybe the year after. I already learned a few things about my boat this past summer by moving the car, especially inducing some twist in heavier breeze. After reading some of the posts a while back I got myself a copy of Sail Power and now realize what was actually happening while I was experimenting. Being able to tweak from the cockpit would be very nice indeed. I also sail singlehanded alot.

One of the customers at the marina asked me about sail trim, after I had fitted them, so I took him for a sail. During the sail, he decided that he had to have some adjustable cars. I gave him the contact information and he ordered a set. (He's not a C&C owner by the way! ) The next spring, he bursts into the shop and tells me he was fitting the cars on his track; pulled out the short, blue, plastic piece of track, from one of the cars and hundreds (his words) of little ball bearings fell out on the deck and into the grass. Garhauer sent him a new set of bearings. But the moral of the story is: Read the instructions and think before you pull any blue bits out! sam :-) sam :-) From: Monty Schumpert Sent: Monday, January 20, 2014 4:32 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Reply To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Adjustable genoa car system for C&C 38 Ditto, also, for the Garhauer adjustable cars. I ordered them at the boat show this fall so don't have a lot of experience yet. They fit the tracks perfectly and operate very smoothly. Looking forward to using them this coming season.

Just tell them what boat you have and they’ll make sure it fits the right track.

It fit the original 1 1/4" track. They work great.
