I would love some feedback on a project since my initial plan went awry and
hope others can help me from making any more mistakes. I keep making small
tweaks to make life easier for short-handed sailing. Since I am usually alone,
raising the main is a process. I raise it most of the way by ha
Dennis, you noted that the diesel lubricity additive you use is from Tractor
Supply; what brand and any particulars? Would you recommend that additive for
any diesel (or at least any Yanmar...)?
Thanks!

Last things first, my rule of thumb (origin lost to memory) is to have enough
threads to match the diameter of the bolt: thus a 1/4 x 20 bolt should have a
minimum of 5 threads (20/4 = 5). Threads beyond that are overkill.
Next I would consider using a oscillating tool to cut away the inner liner
Hi Dave,
I did a similar winch installation on my previous C&C 29-2. I mounted Barient
ST24 winches in place of the existing Barient 18's. Instead of using and
aluminum adapter, the ones I fabricated were made from 1/4" thick stainless
steel. I was concerned that tapping the aluminum would not b
Hello,
Does anyone know where I can purchase replacement handles for the forward
v-berth hatch on a 1979 C&C34? I am replacing the hatch but cannot remove the
pin/screw that holds the exterior knob in place on one of them. I think I may

too thick, and the handle is very stiff.
