Like others have said, easy job. Here's the step by step. Cut new lenses from smoked Lexan (polycarbonate) using old lenses as template Mix a bowl of soapy water and make a push stick. A cut off piece of yard stick or similar will work. Clean the old gasket off the aluminum frame completely.

Mike and Richard Mike makes a good point that I neglected to mention. Based on my experience with the aluminum framed port lights, there is little likelihood of the leak being between the frame and the cabin side. So don't disturb the window frame unless you absolutely need to. I've had my

Have sold my sailboats and am in the process of selling gear. I plan to put everything on eBay but I have 2 Barlow 10” winch handles (bronze/chrome) that were on my 1972 25’ CC so I thought I would give the “listers” a shot at them before I go the eBay route. I figure that a CC sailor will give

I installed an X-5 a few years back on my 35-3 (it worked perfectly out of the box, so don't fret too much). The fluxgate is in the wet locker (like Joel's) - near the mast and pretty low down to reduce motion, away from other wiring to reduce electromagnetic interference. The course computer

On my cb, it is not possible to replace the cable or even check it carefully without having the boat in the travel lift high enough to remove the topside stopper mechanism so the board can be fully dropped so it hangs only by the pin. Of course this requires at least some time in the lift but

I was involved with a 1990 CC 37+  named Blue Pearl out of Mt Sinai Harbor. It must be the only other 37+ cb'er in existence.  I fully agree with you about board up/down on performance.  The best use of the centerboard was when staying at Newport YC in Jersey city. With the board down it really
