It's a furler install. I haven't looked at the job. My friend has. We are

On my 34 you can clearly see that the thickness or section of the hull is
thinner around thru hull fittings. This is because the hull is solid glass
around thru hulls, and cored elsewhere. If you look for this you should be
able to confirm whether yours is the same as what I described or is solid

More likely a corroded wire. Remove the panel and jump the wires on the

Could be the button, but more likely it's a bad solenoid. Happened on my old
34, the Enterprise-A.

First thing I would try would be a thorough cleaning of the battery terminals
and battery posts. Then clean the terminals on the push button switch. Finally,
change the switch.

Sounds like you have enough fuel in the engine for it to fire but soon runs
out. As if the engine is starved for fuel at low rpms.
Have you replaced you fuel filters recently?
You might have an air leak in a fuel line.
Good luck

I found when I had a 3GM that as the weather cooled I had to give a lot of

Find your starter and find four terminals. two small ones are the button
circuit. The two bigger ones have heavy battery wires attached.
To rule out the button, short the two terminals with a short piece of wire, or
needle nose pliers. It the starter clicks and runs, replace button.

I am beginning to think that the termistor is the weak link. Lots of them

I'm just saying that 40 minutes for a sailboat race is a pretty short
limit. (Did guys have somewhere else they had to be? Was it getting

40 minute race fits neatly into a 1 hour programme with commercials.
