In 2003 I mounted the control head on the cabin bulkhead next to the
companionway. It came with a wired remote that I thought I would locate at the
wheel. Never got that done. The bulkhead location worked well for raising and
lowering sails and for running long legs offshore or up the Delaware.
Ok, it's now raining and I getting worried.
Is it possible to sink these boats with a cockpit full of rain water?
My gut feel is that the boat has more buoyancy that the weight of the water
that would fill the cockpit (but not fill it so high that it reaches the
companionway) but I don't know.

Over the years I have heard too many stories of the frameless C&C windows
leaking and the difficulties rebedding. On top of that the one single
persistent problem in the C&C 36 that we had new from 1980 thru 1990 was
leaking windows and difficulty resealing. On our J Bo
Seriously boat shopping. Looking for a 34+ wing keel, reasonable price, in
New England on the ocean. (Or a CS 36 Merlin)
If anyone knows of one for sale, or thinking of selling one, give me a

It's either that or I buy a Catalina 36MKII --- don't make me do it! I
swear, I'll do it!

So your buying an almost effing thing...?

Is the Catalina 36MKII the model with cabinets only screwed in instead of
bolted and bulkheads only tabbed? If so, don't do it!

I was not prepared to do the glued/taped windows on my C&C 36 XL/kcb when the
windows were replaced this past spring. (They were both leaking and 'crazed'
from the NC sun after 15+ year in it).
The yard preferred to seal them with a proper sealant and then use screws to
hold them in place--th
Shallow draft I get, but why a wing keel specifically?
They act like a big suction cup on a muddy bottom, and can be hard to work
loose.

The owner of a small sport boat hired me to remove the ports that were
screwed in by a boatyard and restore them to the original glued in ports.
Looked a LOT better. Sport boat manufacturer uses marine silicon. I used
black LifeSeal. The port were not structural.

@Dave, yea almost, but not so much. I'd consider one if it came up in my
price range but that won't likely happen unless Captain Kirk decides to cut
me a deal.

upstate NY.

Rob,
No deals — especially when you stepped on board last year and announced “I hate
you!” and “Oh, f— you!” And when you saw the back cabin with the walk around
queen bed and said, “I really f—in hate you!”

Hello all,
I have a friend that just purchased a Hobie 33. its a very light boat,
4000 lbs, and very narrow, 8' beam, He want to deliver from rockaway
beack back to Narragansett bay this Saturday. His initial intention was
to run the outside of long island but the forecast is for some big win
Danny,
The key to the East River is the currents — Going up to the Sound can be a very
easy and fast trip if you plan the timing right. You want to be at the battery
anywhere between 2 hours after low tide and an hour before high tide.
See:

Danny,
Edd is correct. He needs to be prepared for lots of commercial traffic.
most will be going his way, and ferry traffic should be lighter than on a
weekday. He needs to be confident about his engine/fuel system. Won't be
doing any sailing.
Its a ride everyone should do at least once! Th
I'm reluctant to comment but Hobbie 33s were popular years ago here on Puget
Sound but were rumored to capsize prone. I would defiantly go the inside route.
I've only run the East River once as a teenager, I'm talking the late 1950's
but I do remember lots of commercial traffic and strong curren
HI Edd,
Thats great info!! I think the decision is made to go through the
river. Low water 8am, that gives 3 hours to get to the battery from 6am
and plenty of time to get through.
Thanks for the quick response!!

I have been through the East River. It would have been kind of fun *with the
current*, but our timing was wrong and we had a slow trip. With or against, it
would be a horrible place to lose an engine with all the traffic and bridges.
Other than that, it doesn't require any extraordinary skill w
Nothing to be afraid of generally. Especially with the current in his favor.
Early is definitely better than later in the day. Traffic can get things
rocking in there. Not good for an outboard.

It is an outboard in a well. A newish 5hp tohatsu 4-stroke. I'm trying
to talk him into borrowing a 10hp (the boat's max rating) for the trip.
He is set on doing this weekend... I kind of wanted to go but, not

I never did mine, but thought about it. I think you need to remove the
traveler to remove the sprayhood, Then it should be exposed.
OR, mine was held in with a screw at the forward end of the plexi. Cut the
screw and remove the old one, and don't put a screw in the new one.

I'd echo what others have said, it's a great trip, certainly easier to
go with the current. Little while ago I helped bring a boat from Mill
Basin, right near Far Rockaway, to LI Sound; there's some ferry traffic
in Rockaway Inlet, but once clear if you hug the Brooklyn shore all the

Those are fun boats! I have great memories of trips on a Hobbie 33. First
overnight with such dense fog we could hardly see the bow, long trip with my
wife, I was stuck in the quarter/pipe berth and she was in the bow, and a fine
spinnaker run by moonlight.
Enjoy, Lee

He should definitely go inside. Keep an eye on the chart in the River because
there are a couple of slightly confusing bits but it will be no problem for
that boat...even with an outboard engine.
Great boat, by the way. I would love to have one to race.

I have transited the East River many times. Do not look at low water at the
Battery. Look at current at Hell Gate. That is the most problematic area
with the most rapid currents and you want to make sure you pass through with
the current (on a flood). Hell Gate currents are listed in NOAA'
