The spring show is about one quarter the size of the fall show The factory guys do not come. Lots of local riggers retailers and used boats. Nothing like the fall show or the Newport show. Joel On Fri, Apr 14, 2017 at 1:34 AM Josh Muckley via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > I usually

Hi Ryan, could there be a way to compress photos right off my phone. I went to post photos for my ad but they were too big. I'd have to download then reduce the size then go back in and post them. I know my cell phone app asks if I want to reduce the size of photos i try to send in an email

If the keel bolts and nuts are stainless I'd use Tef Gel as a lubricant and lower the torque values 10% as Neil suggested. "The function of Tef-Gel in eliminating seizing galling and friction welding of stainless steel, inconel, and other nickel alloys. Tef-Gel applied to both mating surfaces of

Yikes! Thanks, Bill. Yes, my labeling jargon edit button was off. Topsides on my boat sport AwlCraft, and only get the Awlgrip protectant. The deck and cockpit have deserved attention, but are not bad. I have read that the sandpaper treatment is not an annual recommendation and I want to preserv

My experience with woodwax was that you had to have clean and lightly wet decks. Spritz the deck brush and then scrub the product onto the deck. It is slippery when wet so watch yourself. Beyond that I found it kind of hard to tell where the product was - wet or dry. Since I did the entire deck

Another vote for Poliglow for topsides and WoodyWax for deck. I have been using Poliglow on the Awlgripped topsides despite the negative recommendation from the paint people. I get complimented on the hull every year by passersby despite the desperate need for a new paint job (scratches, not s

Do you have an internal track for the conduit? Or even are you using a conduit for the wires.? I completely rewired my mast last winter. Had just bought the boat in the spring of 2015, and spent the whole summer listening to the wiring slapping around inside. So pulled it all out, along with all

Get one of those little stoves that restaurants use for heating things at the table. I am afraid you may be disappointed with the Corinthians. I have heard that most of them have big fast cruisers….. I am staying with PHRF just because. I’ll check after the Annapolis to St. Michaels race and see
