My rigger recommended Technora over Dyneema. I think they said it was a
durability issue, but not sure. So far, I'm happy with the Technora over
wire. They bulked up the genoa halyard in the clutch area. That seemed to
work well, also. Remember to take those lines down for the winter and

Another thought entirely. Rather than convert to wheel why not run jib sheets
back to where spinnaker winches are normally located? If you do not have the
second set of winches you could add them since there is a spot on most C&Cs for
them to be mounted. Many people sailing short handed

A number of years ago friends that we race against switched from a fixed 2

The difference was dramatic. I agree the performance increase will be more

I've had Flexofold, Maxprop and Martec. I would definitely stay away from
Martec. I don't like non-geared folding props. If one blade doesn't open
you can do a lot of damage, including bending the shaft. I've done that

Hate to say it but there are two of “that thing” that race at my club in
Barrachois Harbour against a number of 30s. The two Redwing 30s tend to win
far more often than the C&C 30s and we were often beat by one in particular.
Yes they do better when there is at least 12 knots of wind but

Evening all,
This winter's theme is running rigging, and this includes dealing with the

I’d be very wary of any dent fix solution that doesn’t involve a sleeve. Even
better, simply buy a length of aluminum tube of the same dimensions, cut it to

Agreed re single handing 33-2: move the primary winches to the aft pads and use
self-tailing winches. I found them to be the perfect spot and you can get a
lot of leverage as you are standing over the winch rather than kneeling on the
seat. Was very easy to single-hand the boat.

My 1995 XL has a port and starboard set of bullseyes for a double ended
downhaul that can be secured on both sides of the cockpit.
The bullseye tracks end in a cam cleat at the end of the cabin top and run
about 1/2 way up the cabin sides to a double block forward under the pole that
improves
Regardless of how it used to run, you might consider how I run the pole
downhaul on Touche'. Warning, it ain't cheap.
I use a single block with snap shackle to attach to the bridle ring. The
