Hi Bev,
Removing the masthead crane (the thing you're calling a cap) will
require dropping the forestay & backstay, for most older rigs. This
is an unusual practice if servicing at a mast tower. If you have a
roller furling jib then it's definitely not worth the bother.
Normally you secure t
Hi Patrick,
Try the Sidney Sailor exchange (or whatever they
call the damn thing these days, humbug).

It might take some time wading through all the
old stuff but I wouldn't be surprised if you find
what you need. BTW, take a pencil rub of your
deck pipe
On my 26 the mast cap comes off as one unit with the main and 2 jib halyard sheaves all together. It's then quite easy to do the sheaves at the workbench.
On the 35-3, you would not have to affect the standing rigging to change a
sheave. It should be possible from a bosun's chair (at the crane or on other
halyards). I would suggest going up to check what it looks like before
gathering the right tools and planning the job. On the 35-3, the sheav
I am not saying it hasn't happened, but how many of you guys (and gals)
have seen a rig fail on a C&C..I have been sailing for approx. 40
years and have witnessed rig failures but not one on a C&C. I did see a
'chain plate' get pulled up approx one inch threw the deck on a C&C 36
but the c
Not sure if your mast top is removable? Don't have the answer but a few things
to consider.
Ours has a welded top and the sheaves are removed through the front and back of
the mast. I suppose it is possible if you remove the halyard to take the weight
off the sheave. Then carefully secure the s
Is the 29 keel stepped? If so, I would say yes with the lowers holding
everything in place in calm conditions for a few hours.

Years after my wife sailed with me from Hawaii to Seattle and San Francisco (79
and 81) she was able to articulate the difference in her perception of the
trips and mine.
Sailing conditions I recall as "great" and "a good adventure" she perceived as
"frightening" and "terrifying".

Let me throw this out: if folks are interested in getting together later/after
the show I would be happy to host folks at Eastport Yacht Club. Something to
think about…

We have a mast tower at the club. The main sheave needs to be replaced. Can we
take off the cap at the mast tower and avoid hauling out the mast for the
replacement?___

Great idea Bob,
It's tough to capture everyone's needs.
Some people may be coming after the show with their cars at the football
stadium while others will be parked nearby, or parked over in Eastport. If you
are driving in purely for the C&C group, I can understand picking a place clear

I would be up for a meeting too. Pussers has great drinks but terrible food
unless you stick with appetizers only. The Chart House is much better in my
opinion and it would be a little further away from the boat show tear down
mess. Even though I'll be at the boat show on Saturday, I'm local
The Fleet Reserve Club, next to Pusser's, is open to the public during the
show. There isa covered patio upstairs. Food and drink choices are
limited, but it may be less crowded than Pussers.

Last winters project - replacing my 3 blade fixed with a 2 blade folding

I'd be up for meeting C&Cers at the boatshow.
I like to go on the last day, Monday the 13th, spend the day at the show, then
meet around 5pm at Pussers Carribean Grille upstairs.
They usually have a good Reggae band. We could find a table inside if the band
is too noisey. It's fun to watch the

I know that Lake Wabamun (lived in Edmonton for 5 years); but I assumed that
despite the lake's size, you all must sail together. There is another C&C
around him; when I think about it, I think it is a 27 (not 26).
