David,
If you're looking at reheading all the rigging, think about pulling the
rig, removing all the shrouds, coiling them up and taking them to a NavTec
shop. You can coil the rod to no LESS than 200 times diameter and strap it
to an "X" made of 2 x 4's for transport. UPS will ship it.

Has anyone out there done any reconstruction in that cavity under the mast
step where the keel bolt comes up. My mast step is solid, but I can't seem
to get the forward keel bolt tight enough. I dropped the keel last spring
and rebeded it with 5200 but the forward bolt still leaks after a hard race
Doug,
How can you tell the forward keel bolt is leaking? Is there seepage from
under the mast?
I went through a similar repair about ten years ago. We dropped the keel,
drilled a large bore hole through the mast step and inserted a stainless
steel post (about 1 ½" in diameter). The keel bolt n
David: Just my 2 cents worth..
Since you're in Newport RI, you have way more rigging expertise at your
fingertips than most of us on this list.Newport is full of competition
boats and riggers and such. Find someone local and have them look at the
rig.

What's a photo cloud? Is that anything like cloud computing, which is a
recently revived buzz word.
No clouds here today, it's hot and clear, but I did get in the kayak and
finished waxing the starboard side before 11 a.m, when it was starting
to get really hot. We do get clouds rolling in a

I had a problem similar to Jake's. When the boat was out of the water, I could
wiggle the keel from side to side. There was also the C&C smile. We dropped the
keel, and flushed out the forward keel bolt hole from below. Horrible smell,
like Jake experienced. The yard ground the top of the keel

Before you send everyone your pictures, consider uploading them to a site on
the net – check out Photobucket, Picaso, etc. and then send everyone the link.
Not everyone wants to see them, but those that do can easily view them on your

I had a cycling problem with my bilge switch as well...it would take forever to

Do you have a backflow valve in the discharge line? Until I put one in,
the water in the hose would flow back in and start the pump again. My line

No, no backflow valve. That was going to be my next attempt to fix the problem

Tom,
I had the same symptoms on Cat’s Paw last fall. Turned out that the rubber
bellows was probably quite old and was very stiff. You might consider a new
bellows and SS rotor from PYI. They also sell an additional SS clamp which is
attached just in front of the rotor and which clamps onto

I redid most of my rod rigging about 9 months ago on a 1981 C&C 36.
There are some things that you should get carefully checked out (which I
did not do prior to buying my boat). For example, my spreader tips were
really corroded, and had to be replaced.
In redoing the rod, we replaced the fittings

Dennis, et al; for the bilge, is there an alternative to having a long

Sounds like something is wrong with the pump. My check valve holds water
and the hose is propably as long as anyone's. The pump has no problem.
Make sure you are using the correct diameter hose and minimizing other
possible restrictions such a kinks.

My primary pump (read not the big one) is a Whale diaphragm pump which

Tom:
Your electronic bilge pump switch shouldn't be mounted to the bottom of the
bilge. Try lifting it a bit to see whether it solves your problem. If the
sensor on the switch is always in the water, it will never shut off, and the
bilge pump might not be getting the water low enough. These sw
