Thanks Richard. Yes, I was wondering if the crack in the fibreglass at the
stub was from an impact. Nothing on the leading edge of the keel, but I'll
check the cavity the next time I haul like you suggest.
Will report back on my repair with pics etc.
Appreciate the response.
Best,

Hey Edd,
Stamford has come a long way. West branch brings you to all the restaurants and
east branch to well,……if you go up far enough, the sewage treatment plant.

We loved the Thimbles when last there, which was a long time ago. There was a
barge selling lobster dinners with a delivery boat. My brother and I got
hassled about some kind of Connecticut boating license while taking the dinghy
into town. Seems the local water cops didn’t think a 10 and 13 yea
The best sandwich shop in the world (IMHO) is in Sag Harbor right near the
bridge and marina: Espresso. Great place to visit if you like looking at
Yachts and fancy cars. We have been making annual trips there for for
breakfast, lunch or dinner for 20+ years. I guess I am going to have to

You guys are the best!
We stay at Mystic Seaport when in Mystic. Not the cheapest, but its one of
our favorite spots despite having to deal with the bridges. I'll check out
the recommendations so we have some options.

I had a good time checking out mystic seaport museum and actually didn't plan
enough time. We also skipped over to shelter island and happened to catch the
whaling days celebration. It was fun. There is an awesome sandwich shop in
the center of town.

Hi Joel- I second most of those suggestions with some amendments. Watch Hill
is very nice but it is a very long motor through a narrow winding passage to
get there. You have to be very careful navigating it. Lovely spot once you do.
I would do that only if time is not an issue. If you are th

Hello. We have lived in Mystic for the past 25 years and love cruising in
Fishers and Long Island Sounds. Here are some of our Favorites:
1. Watch Hill and Napatree Point- Anchorage or Watch Hill YC moorings

The Thimbles in Branford, CT are all privately owned so no going ashore, and
the current can be strong when the tides change, causing boats and anchor rodes
to become entangled. A kellet or weight to keep your rode below keel and
rudder can help.

Hey Joel, I think the Thimble Islands on the CT coast are pretty neat. We
also loved going up to Essex on the CT river. The Griswold Inn there has a
fantastic sea shanty night. Northport is a nice little town. Oyster bay
has a couple nice anchorages. Ziegler's Cove is a pretty anchorage as well.

Joel,
Having lived most of my life sailing Long Island Sound, I can share a few
recommendations:
Port Jefferson is a great town with wonderful shops and restaurants. Also easy
to get in and out of the harbor.
Oyster Bay is very protected, but it takes some to get in there. Another great
town
We will be travelling from Mystic through LIS next month.Are there any
'must see' places between Mystic and Port Washington on either shore?

Macdara; welcome to the list; there are many owners with the centerboard boats;
the mechanics of the centerboard is reasonable simple, however, the wear and
tear on a given boat can be troublesome; your photos are good: I am not aware
of any readily available replacement parts for C&C centerboa
4. March, use a space heater, to dry out the wood further - I've also heard
acetone can be effective here.
Be careful with combining these two ideas or your insurance company will be
paying off a total loss!

Hi,
I tried posting this before but not sure if anyone got it.
To cut a long story short, I want to repair the area where the CB hardware
attaches to the bilge.
It is partially delaminated and the underlying wood is sodden and there is
a little bit of rot appearing.
It's a daunting task and a poten
