Jim, I think this may be a hearing issue 😁 Paul ________________________________ From: Jim Watts via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2021 12:41:56 PM To: Stus-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: Jim Watts <paradigmat...@gmail.com> Subject: Stus-List Re: UFO NOISE
I have the same issue, I "fix" it by Velcro lashing an extended boathook up the port shrouds. I have to have it just right, otherwise it only reduces it slightly. Drives me nuts.

Probably not a UFO causing your rig singing...now you have to figure out how to stop the rig from resonating in the wind? Rob Abbott AZURA C&C 32 - #277 Halifax, N.S.

It appears to be coming from the mast, but only with a wind blowing, light or otherwise. Being moored across the bay from Puget Sound Naval Shipyard first few times I heard it, had me looking outside for UFOs. I don't think its wind in the rigging. It just started this year when I got back from my 5 month road trip to Florida. Is Rebecca Leah punishing me for being gone so long?
