The prvious name was PINCH II and it was located in Lake Ontario. It did
have foils, now furler, but not much else changed in that department. It
does have a folding prop. Not sure if or how much it was raced.

From: "Hoyt, Mike" <mike.h...@impgroup.com>
Your boat is the standard C&C 34. Do you recall the previous name of the
boat or even better the sail number? It may already have a PHRF-LO
certificate from previous owner that will give you the best idea.
The base handicap for your boat in Lake Ontario as listed in their 2014
submission to US Sailing is 141.
A base handicap assumes the C&C 34 has its largest headsail up to 155%, a
symmetric spinnaker, folding or feathering prop. Any changes to inventory
such as smaller or larger headsails, no spinnaker or asymmetric only, fix
props, cruising credits etc are handled by adjusting from the base of 141
With your sail number or even the previous boat name you may be able to
search PHRF-LO for the last issued certificate for your boat. Another good
source would be to search for the boat name in past race results (presuming
the boat was raced)
Have fun!

I purchased a 65watt mono panel with charge controller and cables from
these guys:
http://stores.ebay.ca/solarenergydcinc/
All told IIRC it was $250 CAD, maybe $300. Not a lot of money when talking
boat stuff.
That was back in 2013. The setup has served very well. People are right to
recommend a quality MPPT charge controller but I found the return on
investment when dealing with sub 100 watt panels to be minimal and not
worth it. At the time a cheap PWM controller is what came with my kit and
it has been fine now for over 2 seasons. It also has useful features like
an LCD screen that shows how many amps I'm generating, the entry level
morningstar controllers don't do that. I spent money on nice fittings for
my bimini to mount the thing and I'm glad I did because take down and setup
in fall and spring are easy and the mounting is very secure.
Suhana was on a wet mooring since I first launched her in 2012. It was
important to maintain the batteries somehow. Our consumption is low enough
that the 65 watt panel served very well on a three week cruise. Last thing
I'll mention is that the batteries are an unknown age, ie; older than 2011
when I purchased her. I believe the solar panel has a lot to do with them
still being alive. New Trojan T-105s are on the menu for spring and we'll
have shore power now for the first time :)

Danny,
Maybe something like this to create a loop and keep out water:

e=adwords&keyword=product_ad&gclid=CJDfxLrWn8sCFYEjHwod9ycIug
Not sure how to secure the cable. Maybe some type of waterproof cable
clamp would keep out water and hold the cable?
