David,
I replaced several of my sheaves many years ago. The groove for the wire is
not that deep. All rope halyards run over them pretty easily without any
additional drag. I replaced mine because the plain bearing material had worn
away. The original stainless steel shafts were easy to
A previous owner of my LF-38 made up some pvc pipe extensions (one for oil, one
for coolant) for use when filling. They mean that you can fill from the
quarter berth, rather than directly over the engine.

When I switched from wire/rope halyards to all rope I removed the sheaves and
machined them from a V groove to a U groove. At the same time I replaced the
bearings with new oilite bronze. After two years I pulled the sheaves again and
the bearings were noticeably worn with cracks at the edges. Repl
I am beginning to make plan to attend the PNW Rendezvous on Thetis Island,
BC in early August, 2015. And I think a charter and a bit of time to explore
the Gulf Islands with my Admiral would be a really nice trip.
I have a friend who went sailing there last summer with a friend of hers,

Joel,
I've heard this argument years ago, that the gov't intentionally altered the
GPS signal.
I really think the system is not being jambed, but the number of satelites
connected could be limited. I think it's more to control bandwidth than to
intentially confuse non-military users.
Don't t
if you are using a WAAS enabled GPS - the accuracy is as good as military - it
compensates for the offset.

Actually, a front coming through tonight is dropping the the temp dramatically.

As for the navigation thread, we were motoring a narrow section of the ICW
before sunup this morning. Although Touché was in the middle of the "ditch",
the GPS showed us about 150 yards north in the pine trees.
From what I have read, intentional inaccuracies of GPS was a real thing. It was
called Selective Availability and it was switched off around 2000 by the
Clinton Admin. This made civilian GPS accurate to 20 meters +- .The
inaccuracies we see now are the result of atmospheric and electromagnetic w
We have a 41 available for skippered charter in Gulf Islands for cruising or
