BTW, here at the transformer factory we commonly store epoxies in the freezer
to extend the shelf life. Some of our exotic very high temp epoxies (use in
aircraft propulsion) are shipped and stored at -40C.
We have been using warm water to eliminate the crystals in epoxy hardener since
1972.

Hi Danny
If the resin comes out milky you need to warm it up to de-crystalize
it. A bucket of very hot water will do the trick nicely, plop the can
into it and let it sit a half hour.

Listers,
Has anyone with 1989-1993 C&Cs installed instruments into a NavPod (or similar)
onto their stainless pedestal guards, and, if so, how did you run the wires
down from inside the guard? In other words, once you reached the bottom, where
did you go from there?
As far as I can tell, without taking it all apart, the guard ends on the deck
above the aft cabin and there is no access point to that area. But, I may be
wrong.
Anyone? I?m looking to install a Raymarine e95 MFD and p70 Autopilot control
head at the helm.
All the best,
Edd

Josh:
If what you're trying to do is use one line to reef both the tack and clew
of the Main....that's a lot of force needed for a single line. What's
commonly done is to make up a "strap loop" probably 6" long with stainless
rings at each end and fed through the tack grommet before sewing the loop
closed.Then on the top side of the gooseneck fitting, install a reefing hook
..Then the line reefing is used for the clew portion of the main and when it
comes time to reef, you simply lower the main and drop one of the rings over
the reefing hook. The other ring keeps the loop from pulling through the
cringle. Then tighten the halyard again.
Then use the clew reefing line to set the final sail shape.
The fitting that mounts on the gooseneck is like this one...

Subject: Re: Stus-List Boom fittings for reefing attachments
Awesome guys! Thanks everyone for the input. It looks like "that's just
the way it is". Nobody in the industry has necessarily come up with
anything earth shatteringly better.
As I think I eluded to earlier, I'm averse to whimsically drilling holes in
the boom. Besides, I'm not sure a track or block necessarily looks cleaner
so I'll probably stick with a tied on method.
Does anybody have any thoughts on using a soft shackle and an eye splice to
attach the reefing lines around the boom?
I was also considering a single line reefing system. One challenge is that
where most setups have the line exit the boom at the mast and turn up to the
reef cringle, my boom is solid on top AND my aversion to drilling holes
extends to the mast as well. So if I tried a single line reef, it would
have the line turn down to the mast collar (like it did previously) but
instead of simply running back to the cabin (winch and jammer), the line
would run back up to the reef cringle, and back down on the other side of
the boom to another turning block which would lead back to the winch and
cleat where it would finish.
Thoughts on my plan?
Thoughts on single line reefing? I've heard some pretty strong arguments
against and only a few advocates.
Thanks again,
Josh

Calypso's boom has a similar T track on each side of the boom. I still tie
the reefing lines around the boom and have seen very little paint wear.
The tracks on Calypso's boom were installed long ago and may also act as
stiffeners as the mid boom main sheet attachments are near the tracks.

My 40 has a 1 1/4 inch, t track mounted on the side of the boom with a
Schaefer Jiffy reef slide/bail that slides up and down the track so you can
position the clew attachment point for multiple mainsail reef points. The
reefing line goes through a hook that you use to select which reefing
cringle you want to use.
