Stus-List Re: Port side grab rail replacement C 29 MK.1

[Matthew]

I have zero regrets going to stainless.  For the templates, I laid a piece of 
brown mailing paper (like construction paper, but in a long roll) over the 
holes and taped it in place.  I then punched a hole through the paper at each 
of the old hand rail bolt holes.  As a result, Whitewater was not only able to 
get the spacing, but also the bend.  Stainless hand rails need to be pre-bent 
at the shop or they won’t fit correctly (and you cannot bend them while 
installing).  Merely sending in the old wooden ones will not suffice, as wooden 
hand rails “un-bend” when removed.  My replacements were not an exact fit, but 
were darn close.  A little filling and drilling, and voila!

Good point about the stainless steel option. I am in the process of replacing 
the 2 mid ship long grab rails of which 1 broke. I have 6 in total on my 38 
Landfall, and the others are good shape. But the teak does require maintenance. 
I bought 2 teak replacements.on Defender.com 

  but since the hole pattern was not an exact match, I filled with epoxy and 
repainted, and now about to drill new holes and install. I struggled with 
replacing all with stainless, but since I don't have a lot of teak aside from 
the rails and 4 vent boxes, I decided to stay original.

I stripped it (them) off by hand using similar methods. I was able to remove 
big chunks of the home port name, very carefully, with a very sharp razor.

My task was simpler, as I retained the name.

Stus-List Used sail for a 37/40+?

[Bruce Whitmore]

Hello all,

We bought our 1994 C 37/40+ four years ago, and when we got it the main
cover was in shreds, so we had a stack pack made, and went from there.

Yesterday, we were out in gusty winds that are a precurser to Tropical
Storm Eta sitting off Tampa for a few days.

As we took down the sail, a rip about a foot long showed up along a
batten.

I have it over to a local sailmaker to check it for repairs, but I'm
guessing its time to replace the sail.  A few years ago, I thought one of
you said you had some used sails.

I don't race, so a good used one would certainly suffice.

Anyone have one they'd like to get rid of?

Thanks!
