Sophie, I have some that I don't need as I now have an electric motor. I am in Toronto and I bought it years ago from Holland Marine and never used it.

I can't speak specifically to the Barymat product. I'm also planning to replace my engine compartment insulation as it is disintegrating. I was thinking of Roxul AFB at first and then just saw Acoustiguard has a fibreglass faced mineral fibre board called ML Board that might be worth pricing out. Comes in 1" or 2" thickness and says its uses include engine enclosure linings. The Barymat BTMM-14C is foil faced, 1.25" thick and says its suitable for marine use (dirty, wet or oily). Might be worth getting pricing on as well...

Find your area phrf adjustments to ensure the sail is not just over a threshold and go from there. In our area the standard boat comes with 155% headsail with no adjustment, up to 135 with +6 sec/mile, 110 or less with 12 sec /mile. Note that these adjustments are for MASTHEAD RIGS ONLY (ex. C&C 30-1) sailing with no spinnaker. There is an additional adjustment for masthead non spinnaker boats of a further +18 sec/mile. A C&C Redwing 30 at our club went thru exactly your exercise a few years back. They ended up with a 135% furling headsail and dropped the old 150 hank on from their inventory. The 135 being new was far faster than the old 150 in all winds and also gave them the 6 sec/mile adjustment. Their overall happiness was thru the roof as they now had the convenience of a 135. My friends with the Redwing do between 5 and 10 club races a year mostly against other mom and pop boats like the C&C 30-1 (there are four or five at the club) and one other redwing 30. They had North Sails Atlantic perform the work and provide the sails and furling. Best of luck with this. You and your wife will LOVE IT!!!

The unit comes with a 110v wall plug adaptor but for some reason not the 12v cord. Whenever we are at our dock I plug this in and leave it on all the time. When we go sailing I put it on a shelf over the settee since it is very small and light. If I was to be away from the boat for extended periods I could probably drill a hole in the reservoir and place it in the sink to provide drainage. This is a great unit and when mine finally dies I will buy another. It beats the Heck out of dragging a full sized dehumidifier on and off a boat as I used to do on previous boats Note that I obviously do not use this once the temps fall below freezing Mike Persistence Halifax From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Josh Muckley via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, January 06, 2016 1:50 AM To: C&C List Cc: Josh Muckley Subject: Re: Stus-List winter condensation I'm having the same problems as everyone else.
