I suspect most of us with IOR era boats have had similar experiences. The transom on my 38 is a bit over 5 feet wide. I needed to adjust the steering cables on the quadrant, so I removed the one scupper hose in the way and went down in the lazarette with my trusty wrenches and schrunched head

Joe, Funny you should bring that up, as I've just made several trips back to the transom down the port side to replace the exhaust hose.  I must say it took me a bit of doing, had to remove the fuel fill and blower hoses, just barely fit through the opening, but with strategic twists and

I can easily relate to that. I was stuck, headfirst, in the lazarette on friend’s Hunter 34. The lazarette was deep and there was a “point of no return”. If you passed it, there was no way to crawl your way back, but the lazarette was too tight to fall in and reverse. Fortunately, the owner

I still have nightmares of getting stuck back under the cockpit. I once got stuck upside down head first, under the cutting board, under a panel below that where I was working on the isotherm refrigeration unit. I was calling for help, but no one was around. After about an hour and half, I finally

I feel your pain. When I was rebuilding/upgrading the steering system, I removed the fuel tank. Improved access to the stern area but still uncomfortable. Is it time to pull and clean your tank? :) Touche's Racor with vacuum gauge is right where you're trying to access the stern. The port

I am running the propane hose for my new stove down the starboard side of the boat, which is requiring me to crawl back to the stern under/beside the aft cockpit. My memory of working back there was I just crawled in and back out. Turns out to not be that easy, I had to take the engine control

Dennis, thanks for the tracker. The videos of the starts were amazing to watch on Youtube. Seeing the boats from Herse Castle as they pounded into the big swell. So many different boats with 2nd and 3rd reefs and storm jib, racing. Chuck S > On 07/22/2023 9:00 PM EDT John Irvin
