Double check the size. I think mine is a 16" and I thought it was at 24°.
I also suggest getting a laser tach from Amazon. The Yanmar tachs are
notorious for being about 200 rpm slow. Mine was.
It sounds like you already know that the pitch can only be changed in 2°
increments and for every 2°
Dennis, Thanks for your response, all on point. I always wondered why my
halyards were reversed from every other boat I have ever owned. The port
rounding of marks explanation makes sense and is probably the correct answer
since my boat was raced harder than I do in previous life
HI Andrew...Welcome to this list. Everything you ever wanted to know is
located here. Probably about anything.
My first thoughts about your boom and mast rigging are that it is very
complicated. Try to keep it simple and you will sail safer regardless of
crew skill. I'd take Dennis' ideas
Andrew:
I have a 1981 C&C 34. It appears that the layout for lines led to the
cockpit as I will describe was the set up from the factory when the boat
was built. There are 4 winches on the aft end of the cabin top, 2 on each
side of the companionway. I admit to having the original Schaeffer sheet
Go to CNC Photo album; then click on resources, then click brochures, then

I just did a cabin top re-configuration a couple weeks ago. All the
hardware was removed and re-installed. Gave me a clean slate to work with.
Some subtle but important considerations for locating rope clutches.
Give a lot of thought to locating the rope clutches with regard to the
winches. Yo
Another alternative to consider is something like my 36 XL/kcb was rigged by
the factory or the Harve de Grace yard--not sure which.
4 of the relatively low-load control lines rigged on Water Phantom (Cunningham,
vang, topping lift and outhaul) can be run to cam-cleats like the Harken 150

Charlie, I agree. I also have two Spinlock Cam Cleats inboard of my rope
clutches for the Cunningham and outhaul, two low load lines.

Timely input. Can I hire you as a consultant? :-)

That would be awesome; so much of this stuff is definitely better thinking it
out in person and with the materials at hand.
What’s your schedule tomorrow or next week? I’m kind of hobbled right now after

I find myself in need of a replacement key for my engine...a Yanmar, I know

I may have one floating around in the boat. I gave up – have taken the
‘ignition’ switch out and replaced it with a push/pull switch at great cost
savings after finding all the Yanmar keys are the same. I figure having a key
outside is not important when the master switch is down below. Can’t ru
I also did what Gary did, especially after doing surgery on the Yanmar panel
when a key broke off inside on the previous Enterprise. It’s an easy install.
The need for a key outdoors amuses me. If they can break into your boat to get
the power on, they certainly can get to the back of the panel

Back in the early 80’s I was asked by the local North Sails loft
flat blade screwdriver or any key that fit. (there are no pins inside, just a
slot)

Yep. Most of the J30 owners in my marina use a screwdriver.

I use the key for one of my lazarette locks to start my engine. If you
don't already have one the right size, and would prefer a key to a
screwdriver, I'm sure you can get a generic blank key that will work for
cheap at a hardware store.

I’m looking for a few good, through surveyor recommendations in the Vancouver

Not sure how it will work on yard dust. I'd try to minimize contact with

Hey all -
Thanks so much for all your insight! If anyone has time and inclination I’d
love to see any examples of your running rigging, especially anything where
you’re running reefing lines or topping lifts from the boom back to the mast
and aft to the cockpit.
