Newly installed in 2007 this now so stiff that I can't close it, although I
used to remember to close it and open it again on a regular basis. Looks as if
it is plastic. Anyway to unfreeze it short of haul-out?
Also, when and why would I need to close it? Legal requirement?

GPS signal and it works well with Navionics in my wifi-only iPad but I always

understand since my understanding is that you need to balance the
foresail and the main? I prefer to have both sails up and furled or reffed than
foresail or main alone.

If I had replaced the chain securing the anchor chain cover when I first
noticed it my crew would not have dropped it overboard while anchoring in
Suchia!
Would anyone in the Victoria/Sidney BC area have any ideas abo
plenty of air circulation
to dissipate the hydrogen produced during charging. So why print the vertical
requirement!?
Btw, seems to be working well.

recently in 20 knots gusting 25 and maybe 30, so we were heeling a lot, and
when we came back in there was new water in the bilge and it tasted slightly

Rotating the fasteners
increases the potential of breaking the seal. If I want to tighten the nuts
from beneath, I use a 1/4 inch drive handle with a flexible drive extension and
the appropriate size socket.
