Outside of my own boat, I have more miles on a 34 than any other C&C. Compared to a 35 MK I: The boat is harder to handle downwind. The IOR broach tendency is more pronounced than the 35. The original engine is a 2 cylinder Yanmar that - compared to a 4 cylinder A4 at least - vibrates the whole b

NMEA can *usually* work well enough with RS-232, but it is really closer to RS-422. The reason we seem to get away with this mix-n-match is we only use ONE talker. See below from http://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/f13/nmea-0183-and-rs-422-vs-rs-232-a-12967.html >> Questions seem to com

Really - before steam tugs became common it could be a major PITA to get a square rigged ship into or out of a harbor. Besides for sailing, they would tow the ships with their longboats or kedge anchor-over-anchor. Joe Della Barba -Original Message- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun.

Re: Stus-List New sail purchase

My suggestion for the main: Loose footed Combination of partial and full battens Make the second reef your "first reef". For cruising you don't need granular control of mainsail size. If you need to reef, you need the second. Think about the Tides Marine track to make raising and lowering easy.

I'll give the Brits the *steam engine*, but we get the steamboat! On August 26, 1791, John Fitch was granted a United States patent for the steamboat. Four years earlier, on August 22, 1787, John Fitch demonstrated the first successful steamboat, launching a forty-five-foot craft on the Delaware
