Hello,
I am just replacing them on my 1994 C&C 37/40+ now. If they are small chrome
caps with cutouts to let the light out the bottom, then they should be the same
as what I have. Mine were stamped 90 on the metal base, which is equivalent to
the same base as a 1142 bulb, but you're right that
Hello all,
Our 1994 C&C 37/40+ has a section of deck core, limited solely to the area
under the sliding companionway hood that has become rotted and needs to be
replaced. This was caused by the sliding hatch stop being slammed too many
times by the DPO and the stop being solely held into the de
Hi,
Not directly answering your question, but there's a Danish guy called Mads
Dahlke who's doing a complete core replacement on the deck of his project
sailboat. He has an addictive YouTube channel on the project and he's
discussing the topic in detail. If you have a bit of extra time, you might
If the area isn't too big then you would probably be well suited to simply
fill the void with epoxy thickened with light or medium weight silica. You
might choose balsa saw dust instead.

For short trips I keep the dinghy (10' RIB) on the dinghy tow. On longer trips
or over nighters I joist it to the fore deck. It's ok for sailing but a bit of
a pain when anchoring.

Josh — we use an “X” shaped towing bridle for our dinghy; two connections on

with stainless carabiners for the dingy end and large eyes at the boat end.
There seems to be enough friction on the dinghy to keep the br

If it is a soft bottom, the ONLY way I have made it work is engine off and the
bow of the dinghy is up in the air tied to the stern pulpit and the engine off

I couldn't help but chuckle at your description - that's a perfect
description of several times when I really regretted towing the dinghy and
should have had it stowed (folding PortaBote, so it stows nicely inside the
shrouds).
In those kind of wave conditions I think the dinghy should be stowed.
Joe, to build on what Joe Bognar said, Genco is close to thousands of
interesting things to do depending on when and what your interests are. There
is an in water boat show in Port Credit at the end of August but Fri-Sun,
hockey hall of fame, theatres, museums, Jays baseball, it really is endles
Yeah we have a porta-boat also and for many years have simply set it up on
the foredeck. We use a short spinnaker pole to davit the boat over the
side. Generally I like it but keeping the boat setup would make things
easier.

Thanks for all the advice! Sounds like we could make a fun few days out of it.
I didn't realize it was only an hour from Niagara Falls. Long ago I used to
help run a road race like "Cannonball Run" from Annapolis to Niagara Falls and
the course record is 5 hours and 50 minutes :)

You could probably sail with it up front, but you'd need to have a high clewed
jib to make it more feasible.RonWild CheriC&C 30-1STL

Gary,
We probably have the same Force 10 stove. The oven is difficult to use without
a thermostat. I saw the there is a newer model that look very similar to what

retrofit our stoves. Here’s a link to the newer
