Stus-List Lose Hardware/Leaking Boat

2015-02-09 Thread Dan Utinske via CnC-List
I've been fighting a leak for a while and with the persistent rain here in the PNW finally found the culprit. The aft deck brackets for the spinnaker pole hardware had not been tightened, worse yet I found a 3/8" ratchet drive with a 7/16" socket jammed up in the overhead rusted to one of the bolt

Dan, That's pretty funny - if its not your boat! I would remove the bracket and check to make sure that if it is wood core at that location it is not rotted. If it is, it may not be a big deal if it is just around the hole. I assume you mean genoa track and car? Yes, you move the car forward f

My son and I have returned to our boat in the Sea of Cortez. Part of my 14-year-old son’s duties include keeping up a blog. So if you are interested in reading about what a lousy cretin I am for forcing a kid to write a blog, we would love to have you come by for a visit. And yes, I write t

It depends on the jib. On some boats (mine), you can move the car forward like Joel says, on others (like the J-24 I used to race on and the J-80 I race on now) you have a separate short track inside the shrouds to run the jib (blade type) through. Gary - Original Message - From: J

Hi Peter, glad you're still at it. I met you a couple of years back at Toronto Sailing & Canoe Club when you brought your kids along for the presentation. My parter Megan and I still talk about that sometimes, she'll be glad to know you're still out there. The C&C 39 is a beautiful boat. We are jea

I like having a hand crank for my A4. I've had to use it too and it was easy, though I also 'practiced' when it wasn't needed, just so I could know. If you can get one it's a good thing to have (if you've got the room to swing it). Steve Suhana, C&C32 Toronto On Wed, Feb 4, 2015 at 8:54 PM, bobm

Besides for standard PHRF classes this year we will have Cruising and CHESS. CHESS is single handed/double handed and Cruising is casual sailors that might not have much experience or a valid rating. Hope the email system does not mangle this too much. 74th Annual CRYC Regatta Race O

Did that race for many, many years, starting way back in the 70’s. Nice race up the river, a great anchorage and nice party. Still have a couple of the T-shirts. And my old One Design class still has a start. Too cool. And that CHESS 1/2 race sounds like the one to do. Cheers, Dave Godwin 1982

Hi, I just rebuilt the 3QM30 which I received when I purchased Johanna Rose. The previous owner had the engine removed and dismantled, and I received the engine as a bare block with boxes of rusty parts. It was a real basket case.This weekend I managed to shoehorn the engine back in, and

Jim, That’s a familiar looking muffler. I ditched mine a half dozen years ago and put in a Vernalift. Mine is small, but fits the space nicely. The fiberglass should last forever now. Of course, that’s probably what they said about the stainless one too! Jake Jake Brodersen “Mid
