Robert,
This is how I would do it, others may have their own ideas.
1 – Loosen off the babystay
2 – Measure from the attachment point on the mounting plate on the top of the
cabin liner to a fixed point of the cabin structure below. Try to pick a
point/points that will not flex or move.

What is the cockpit layout of the 37+ in terms of winch placement,

Don't you run foul of PHRF rules with so many crew? Our region has max crew

My 35 MKII has the a very similar setup to what you describe for your new
Frers 33.I have been single handed sailing from the beginning, no problem on
Alianna and in fact I like that bridgedeck / traveller layout. I have a 7:1
advantage to ratchet block and cam cleat on my main sheet and
J30 owners have known this for years. Many don't have a key, just a

All,
I got rid of my key-ignition a few years ago. The engine wont start
without the battery switch on and a thief would need to break into the boat to
enable the battery. Do you really think that once someone is able to get into
your boat and start turning things on that the absence of
My boat has never had a key and I have never wanted one. A collection of about
15 keys will start about every boat and airplane ever made anyway.

I like the ring / shortened key idea. The pull switch is also a good idea, I did try the superglue trick and it did not work for me.
Truth is: I knew the key is in a vulnerable spot and I usually take it out while sailing as I often came close to kicking it myself, especially when the boat is heal

The traveler on windburn ( C&C 30-1 ) was moved forward to the cockpit seat aft
of the
companionway. I think a common factory install was just forward of the binnacle

equipped. The factory position work
I know it is time to reef when the key falls out of the switch!
Actually, I usually hang it on the shift lever when sailing. I carry a
spare in addition to screwdrivers in case someone steps on it when I forget
to hang it.

Ditto! Had one badly bent key a while ago. Too close to comfort. Learned to
pull the key out when sailing. Used to put the key in my pocket until I
realized that was a dumb idea should I be the one falling overboard! It now
hangs on the gear shift lever!

In the "old days", Ferrari ignition keys were little more than a little
metal rod. You could just as easily start a Ferrari using a large nail

I used the West Marine sound insulation kit that included the foil covered foam
with a high density base. The sound attenuation was noticeable but nobody has
ever asked if the engine was on or off.
I think of sound as light. If the boat interior was dark and you turned on a
bright light insid
I wish it was the case with my boat. I lost my (only) key a while back (the
keychain ring split; the key landed on my hat, which attenuated the sound; I
put the hat on and the key flew into the water). I could not start the boat
with any other key around (I borrowed a few). $35 and the new ignit

Mike,
I would buy into Josh's rule of thumb for a light air boat: that it should go
upwind at about half of the apparent wind speed. But to me, light air is less
than 6 knots or so true. So we're talking about getting boat speeds of 3 or 4
knots upwind in apparent winds of up to 8 or 9. Or gho
Update: Tonight I removed the sound insulation from the sides of the engine
compartment. Let me tell you - it was a dirty mess. Surprisingly, it is
possible for a substance to be both dusty and oily at the same time. On the
bright side, after removing the old, crumbling insulation I was able to
