My solar vents are ventage 1990's they have no battrey and they remove
with a cap. Great vent. However none of them move much air. Dont have
high expectations. However they are great for keeping the cabin fresh.

I seriously doubt that lashings would be able to handle the loads.
You would probably be better served to mount the spin pole on the mast in
the normal fashion, using the pole to hold the tack of the A-sail forward of
the headstay. Then run the tack line of the A-sail through a block mounted

I imagine that the one on my main hatch only needs a battery to make it work.
It has a feature which lets me pull it out and replace with a 3 cap if for

Curtis, You're a lucky guy. You got a great deal on your boat I guess? Which

My annual costs for slip, insurance and winter storage are more than the cost
of your boat.
We had to do the keel after a very hard grounding. It was a lot of work and was
a good price

where did you source the replacement hoses
Marek,
Check with Paynes in Burlington, they carry the hoses - but are strictly a
wholesaler - they will have a local retailer who can order for you - in the
Burlington/Oakville area I use Dockside Marine - I am sure James would ship
to you if you wantd.

The Hinckley book on boat maintenance says to wrap the sanitary hoses in
Saran wrap.
Worth a try-- and cheap and easy.

Our main hatch- mounted solar vent seems to be solar only and runs great when
the sun is on it. I don't know how old it is but its not new and am not sure
what make it is. Problem is it drips with any rain or spray. Maybe a drip or
two per minute. Even when in the slip. I can't tell where
Some expensive head hose has Saran wrap material built into the hose if you are

Checked out your blog. You got a great deal on the boat! The seafood
buffet on the bottom was a bonus!
There are many others on this list and other areas that also bought

later dollars into the boats to bring them up
Hey Curtis,
No problem. No offense. It was stupid crazy expensive, but necessary. I've had
our boat for 11 years and my best times happened after the keel change, so no
regrets here. The reason I wrote my response to the guy with the 41, was simply
to explain the costs to consider.
