Doug,
We use them all the time. In 10kts of wind or less, they produce a great
sheeting angle. Once the wind pipes up, we may switch to the outside cars
to get some more adjustability. I damaged one of mine last year. We had
the car all the way forward on the inside track and it actually pulle

I lead mine straight to the winch. The lead is fair and have had no
problems. I got rid of the turning blocks on the quarters a long time ago.

There is a C&C 36 being auctioned this weekend at the Chesapeake Bay
Maritime Museum in St. Michaels Maryland.
I helped bring it down from the northern bay to SM the other day and got to
take a good look at it.
Pretty well equipped - 10 winches, autopilot, wind/speed/depth, gps, RF, all
a bit old
I too have investigated possibilities to replace missing characters off the
nameplate. I have worked with Kay Cushing and her magic laser machine. We
have replicated the characters "C", "O", "&" and the spear, all cut from
cast smoked acrylic window remnants. All the remaining characters are
I am sending it back. I maybe should have looked more at the measurements – it
looks like it came from a 1/3 scale model!
It might be good for a RIB in the 14-16 foot range maybe? I checked to see if
it would fit the dinghy and it would except the vertical mounts are too tall

Touche' got a new windshield last week. It's a simple quick on/quick off
thing for deliveries and transits. It's not the expensive Isinglass stuff
but the less expensive clear vinyl or whatever.
I have no experience with cleaning/protecting a windshield. Internet
research shows plastic cleaner/
So, working on buying my 1st sailboat greater than 15'. It's a 1988 30MkII.
It has a wing keel. I read somewhere that a wing keel generates some lift.
So
Does a wing keel create lift?
Should I have more heavy stuff at the back of the boat for increased angle
of attack on the keel?
Or..
don't
Keel lift is a horizontal, not vertical force. Keels are hydrodynamic foils
- when they are moved through water they cause both lift and drag forces to
develop. Lift is the positive lateralforce that allows a boat to move to
windward - drag is the negative, resisting force. A good sailboat

McGuire makes a two part cleaner and Polish I have used for years with success.
Developed I think for motorcycle windshields. Not familiar with the other

Lorne,
If it's in good shape, buy the boat. The foils on the keel and wing are
optimized for lift to drag ratio at hull speeds. The boat sails well at four
degrees incidence angle and you can feel yourself being lifted to weather on as
beat. The winglets are mounted well above the foot of th

The folks who made my dodger recommend a product called Klear 2 Sea.
My friends at the local West Marine agree. They recommended using the version
in the pump spray bottle. More material than the aerosol for less money, and
you aren’t paying for propellant. They also said it is
On my SOON to be 1988 CNC 30MKII, the traveler is in the cockpit vice
cabin top. Can a dodger be installed? Also, anyone know where to get a
dodge in the Chesapeake Bay area?

scuff marks he power buffs with cleaner wax that has a very fine abrasive.

Hi all, thanks again for the advice. My boat does have a switch on the bulkhead
and pumps through the weird spigot into the sink. It's surprising how much you
can miss when you're learning a new boat.
Cheers, Al
