Stuart Dahlgren from UK Sails NW showed up with my new sails
yesterday.  But they were NOT what I ordered!





And if you want to check out the sails, there are some good pics here
- https://www.flickr.com/photos/37365243@N00/





With the pinstriping on the sails the first thing I thought of was a 
Smith Chart ...

Stus-List Schaefer in-boom furling

[Tom Buscaglia via CnC-List]

Danny

The PO bought the boom for us, along with an electric winch for the mail 
halyard/furling line.  Unfortunately, he went with a crappy loft for the 
mainsail.  As a result, I had to have the main rebuilt twice since we got Alera 
in 2012.  Batten ends were too far off the luff tape and the batten angles were 
all off.  So, I'm not sure I have had the full benefit of the rig yet.  But I'm 
pretty sure I will going forward.

That said, here are a few things I have learned.

Furling is a joy.  Just reef down one batten at a time.  

The rigid vans limits the ability to tune the main. But, my furling in the mail 
without slacking the halyard you can flatten the sail nicely.

Also, adjusting the curve of the mast w a baby stay or adjustable back stays 
works some too. 

Speaking of the vang, make sure you hit the 87 degree angle dead on. Otherwise 
the sail will bunch and the battens will not roll into the boom correctly.

Lynn and I double Alera all the time and I think this will allow us to stay 
sailing into our 70's.

The pictures below the new sails are from the PNW C Rendezvous last August at 
Telegraph Harbor on Thetis Island, BC, not our club.  There were over 20 C's 
there.  Our club only has 3.

Re: Stus-List Schaefer in-boom furling

[Andrew Burton via CnC-List]

Danny,
If the wind-up of the bolt rope on the boom is working aft, the aft end of
the boom is too high, if it's working forward, the aft end of the boom is
too low. You want the sail to furl so the bolt rope lays almost, but not
quite on top of itself.

Stus-List Annapolis Bermuda race

[Joel Aronson via CnC-List]

All,

I'm planning to do the A2B again in June.  There are already 17 boats
entered, and the Navy boats have not registered, so the fleet will probably
be bigger than in 2014.  I'm the only C, and there is only 1 J at the
moment.  There is a cruising class this year as well as a multi.

The scratch sheet is here:
http://www.yachtscoring.com/event_scratch_sheet.cfm?eID=1519

The registration discount ends soon, so if you are going to do the race,
now is the time to sign up and start working on boat prep!

Re: Stus-List Schaefer in-boom furling

I did that by eye and it seemed to work pretty well but, when Tom gave such a 
precise angle I thought he had some way of aligning perfectly!  (or I was 
hoping!) Danny

Hello: I have a 1986 MKIII 38-ft. One of the removable panels over the
galley (four or five screws) material needs replacing. I have pulled the
panel and removed the material. It cannot be save, it was ruined by the
previous owner trying to glue the edges back up as a quick fix. All the
others in the cabin are in great shape. Does anyone know where I can find a
match. It is cream to beige in color, as I am certain all of them are. I was
told it was a vinyl wall covering by a boat upholstering shop. I live on an
island in Washington state. I can take a ferry or bridge to the main land,
but it is normally an 3.5 round trip just over and back, without leaving the
ferry dock area. So I do most things via the internet.

Thanks for any help you may have.

Thanks for the info, I will check them out.

I am waiting for my sample to arrive to determine if I can match it.

If not.

I will go over and pick up a sheet of 3/8 teak or mahogany plywood and make

The cabin is slightly darker, but it's not really a problem. There isn't a lot 
of wood in there to start with. I applied 6 coats of varnish which makes these

JeffI have seen some examples of that procedure, but the pictures were small 
and it was hard to get a good feel for the look.I have been toying with that 
idea, only one step better (it was my back up). Just a short distance from here 
there is a lumber mill that deals in teak. They sell the Teak and holly panels 
for the floor, teak boards and teak plywood. I was thinking of getting some ¼ 
teak plywood to make new panel.  Your happy with it. Does it make the cabin 
feel darker?Larry  ___

Stus-List Not What I Ordered - was New Sails TODAY!!!

[Jean-Francois J Rivard via CnC-List]

Beautiful sails (And boat) I enjoyed looking at many of our other 
pictures.. Your Club looks like C fest to me.  There are two other C's 
at my marina (Out of about 350 sailboats) and 4 others on the lake that I 
know of..

Dave

Was viewing your refit blog this morning.  Very ambitious and impressive 
project.

Great job on the work to date.  When do you expect to be completed and back in 
the water?

Martin and Russ,

I wanted to circle back to your comments, in particular the limitations that 
many listers may have when replacing or repairing the fixed ports.

I agree with Martin that my tool recommendations may not be suitable for those 
who do not need nor want a complete deck redo. I sort of recognized that 
dynamic when I was putting the blog post together but I was moving fast.

I’m fortunate that I have the means, time and location to achieve my goals. I 
think I’m making up for all those years when I raced my (other) boat while 
living in a small condo. I didn’t have the tools or space to store them so like 
many listers, I had to sort of make do either in a slip or in the short time 
period that the boat was hauled prior to race season in the Spring. I know how 
frustrating that can be. Being able to approach this rebuild from a 
professional perspective makes things easier.

Still, with some patience and the smaller tools I think the job can be done 
fairly neatly with good results by most.

Best,
Dave Godwin

Re: Stus-List Not What I Ordered - was New Sails TODAY!!!

[Danny Haughey via CnC-List]

Hi Tom, How long have you had that Sheafer boom furler?  I have one on my "new 
to me" boat. I've only been able to use it about 3 times but, so far I really 
love it! It had not been exercised in a few years and they left it with the 
sail rolled up in it year after year so it seemed a bit stiff but began to work 
more easily each time.  The main sail seems to be pretty new.  It has a neil 
pryde main sail on it.  When you look at the videos of the booom furler on the 
Shaefer site you can see the Neil Pryde logo on the sail on their demonstration 
boat.  I was assuming Sheafer made some kind of deal with them. Any tips or 
tricks on using it? Danny
