Or an inclinometer an inexpensive device that shows degree of heel. Mount it in the cockit. Around 20 degrees of heel most C&C’s i have sailed are quite fast but under 15 is more comfortable for some and not much slower on a beat or close reach. Like using the heads or pouring a beverage is tricky

Good morning! Didn't know if any of you might have some suggestions for a good swing arm mount for my GPS chart plotter? I'm considering the RAM Mounts but boy are they expensive! Are there any other models out there that might be a bit more reasonable in price? The Rams do look quite sturdy and

I bit the bullet and bought the RAM mount. It wasn’t that bad, though. I bought a 1” handlebar mount + a double socket arm ($27 for the set) + round plate with ball ($15). The prices are current; I think I paid a bit less. So for $45 you have a very solid mount that attaches to the binnacle gua

Stus-List Sail Plan and Heavy Weather

You are using a #3 in 55 knots? For me going to windward that would be the storm jib. 55 with the 100% jib would have my rail under I think. OTOH I flew the 100% with 50 gusting 60+ downwind and held a steady 10-11 knots boat speed while watching huge chunks of foam blow off the waves and fly in

Charlie, It's been a oldie but goodie topic on this list, but the proper way to torque the keel bolts is with the boat on the hard, in which condition the bolts are unloaded and torquing to spec gives the proper preload stress in the bolts.   Doing it in the water with the bolts under tension
