Has anybody heard of a piece of gear called "Skirtlifters" They are some sort
of device that is used to bring the foot of the genoa to the inboard side of
the lifeline when tacking. Apparently you do not need to have someone on the
foredeck to lift the genoa foot over the lifeline in the event o

Another option to help seat the zinc on the shaft is to use a "C" clamp rather
than striking the zinc with a hammer. You are less likely to damage something

I wanted to install a sound system in the cockpit of my 29-2 for many years but

Chuck, there is detailed information about the sound exciters at the You Tube

Joe, the sound exciters that I used are rated for 20 watts continuous power
with a burst power rating of 40 watts. They are made by Hiwave, model number
HIAX32C20-8
Bob, I used two 8 ohm sound exciters per channel. They are wired in parallel so
the amp is seeing a 4 ohm load. I was going to in
months to get a new boom
extrusion from them. They know that they are the only game in town when it
comes to finding obsolete parts so they really don't care much about keeping
their customers happy. On the positive side, they do have a good selection.
Keep on top of them, constantly.
