Just had the incredible good fortune to attend a viewing of this afternoon's AC races over-commentated by Dave Perry. I challenge anyone to say that the racing was not exciting Having Dave's perspectives was just awesome! - and what about that near capsize!! -- Jonathan Indigo C&C 35III SOUT

For me the Americas Cup lost the most apeal when they alowed crews to be multinationals. The Plusses still outweigh the negatives. Better camera work on the boats, on the water and from helicopters Better TV coverage, on at a reasonable hour Better commentating, more knowledgable sailors inst

Yeah that isn't the way the sleeve is set up. It is a new sail from Bacon that they had made and it comes with the ATN sleeve. That sleeve is tied together permanently. I just need to cut that knot and retie it with a bowline. I think Bacon goofed getting the sleeve set up this way. Thanks.

Thanks. This is the one sold by ATN. I've got a call into them. It really looks like it doesn't come apart. Ron On Sep 14, 2013, at 1:39 PM, Indigo wrote: > Ron > If you truly have a snatch block you should be able to find a way to open it > and put the line round the sheave without cutti

The block that ATN sells is just a ratchet block with a snap shackle, so you can't open it. According to their website picture you should be able to undo a knot and pass it through... http://www.atninc.com/images/products/snap-ratchet2.jpg On 14 September 2013 10:38, Indigo wrote: > Ron > If

Ron If you truly have a snatch block you should be able to find a way to open it and put the line round the sheave without cutting the line. My new Garhauer snatch block has a plunger that you pull and then one cheek swivels to expose the sheave. My old "no name" snatch blocks have a spring load

Following advice of several sages on this list and thank you, we got an aspin with ATN sleeve. I also got the ratcheted snatch block that ATN sells to help with the dousing process. So we are stringing this all up and got stuck on a detail. How to get the snatch block integrated with the d

Thanks Jimmy, your first point is why I raised the question. All of this was prompted by reading a blog from a boater who said, essentially, "any size can go anywhere, provided you have the patience to wait for the right weather". So I will sit in Silva Bay or Clam Bay or wherever for a day or two

And replace the impeller on the raw water pump. Removing the fuel tank and cleaning might be a bit excessive before a delivery. I usually take lots of Racor filter elements because often the grunge in the bottom of the tank gets shaken up when you get offshore. Polishing the fuel is a nice idea,

And, if you choose to deliver on its own bottom, have the fuel tank removed and cleaned.  If not practical, have a reputable vendor polish the fuel.  Carry lots of fuel filter elements. Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA > > From: Danny Haughey >To: cnc

That will be a great trip!  I hope that works out for you!  I'd be envious!  Lol I would say, if all goes through with the purchase, try and find a good, reputable diesel mechanic to go though the engine, tune it change out all the lubricants check all the pumps and any other maintenance items.
