Congrats, Bradley, great boat, I bought my C&C33 MKii two years ago. Yes, the sheaves are grooved for wire halyards. I elected to keep the wire halyards because the rope size works better in the clutches and self tailing winches. You may want to check the sheaves bushings for wear; I replaced t

Where is home? There are probably a few volunteers to help deliver. I replaced my wire with 3/8th Yale Crystalline. I had to fiddle with the winch to get it to self tail properly. The clutches worked fine. If you needed to you could put a second jacket on the lower portion to provide better ha

The smallest line I have been able to work in a Barient 24ST is 3/8”. On occasion even a 3/8” line will need a slight assist to stay in the tailer, especially if the line has a vectran core or other relatively stiff core material. Some line is actually metric [either 9 or 10 mm] though show

Agreed. I just up/downgraded my jib halyard from 7/16 hi-tech (I don't even remember what) to 11mm VPC. Looks great, feels good (not up yet) and has less stretch than Sta-set X for about the same dollars. Thanks to a lister, got it for 40% off on West's one day sale! I (1980 boat) switched to

I give a big +1 for Gauhauer. Easy to work with and very good at quite affordable prices. And if there is any issue, you can call them and talk to Guido. They would try accommodating just about any request you might have. E.g. they built a 3:1/6:1 mainsheet block for me, even though it wasn't in

On a C&C 33 mkii, has anyone experienced salt (or lake) water filling up the sink in the head when heeled over hard on a stbd tack? Mine was filling up and overflowing unless the sink plug was in or the drain cock closed. I suppose the proper thing for a seaman to do would be to close the drain
