Touche' had anodized alloy primaries (Barlow 28's), secondaries (Barlow
26's) and cabin top winches (Barient 22's). The bases for the secondaries
are losing some of the anodizing. The alloy primaries had lost some teeth
on the inside of the drum but had been repaired.

Glad to hear that, Edd. A simple fix that will last a few seasons.

A bit late on this one, but just to add another plus (both my cataracts were
corrected during the last 10 months). Cat’s Paw was already beautiful (to me)
before the operation, and the sails were already close enough for me to see
they were mostly badly trimmed. But for the first time in years

It turns out the wire was not connected to a power source! The wire was
good. I have a terminal block for the instruments in the NavPod under the
deck, so I cut the wire, added eye fittings and connected to the power

Good work! Nice when it is a simple fix!

Jonathan, it sounds like you have a different setup to mine. Mine looks
exactly like the shop drawings, so is original (maybe an option?). We have two
spin halyards that exit slightly above the forestay with stainless 'pipes' each
side. That makes it easy to douse either side as long as fored

All,
I'm happy to report that it was the belt. My wife and I changed it today,
started up the engine, heard no whistling and saw a healthy 14.4 volts coming
through.
Lesson learned. Change your belts on a regular basis.
All the best,

Every boat is a little different but the Person 32 I race on has 3 masthead
sheaves. We regularly lower on the opposite side of that which we raised.
If you absolutely need to take down on the same side, you could try a
maneuver called a "mexican". This is a takedown on the windward side.

When you douse the spinnaker, do you let the pole forward to the headstay
and then let the guy completely off? This should relieve all the pressure
and now you can pull on the sheet to gather the foot and work with the
bowman to relieve the halyard insync so as not to dump the sail in the
water.
The rule on Touche' is always drop on the same side as the hoist, period!
It's not hard even if you're on the opposite gybe than the hoist. Pop the
jaw, lower the pole end, and haul the guy as you ease the sheet and
halyard. The chute should slide around the forestay and across the
foredeck. Pra
Hi Lee:
When I made my pipe berths, I wrapped the memory foam with plastic to prevent
it from getting wet. I used 0.7 mil plastic drop cloth which I got at Home
Depot in the paint department. It's so thin that you don't even know it's
there.

Thanks for all the help on this.
I have another question - specifically for 35-III owners who fly a symmetrical
spinnaker
I usually do my first set with the pole to starboard and the chute going up
using my only spin halyard which is on the port side - and the chute going up

Some water heater installations include a backflow preventor (check valve)
sometimes they can tap or rattle a bit.

If your system has a diaphragm pump and expansion tank like mine it might be
worth checking (ie:draining) the tank. Normally it would act a bit like a
cushion and dampen vibration from the pump. When I changed the rubber
diaphragm on my pump it was obvious how old and rigid the original diaphragm

We are out on our annual cruise headed to the C&C Rendevous on Thetis and have
developed the weirdest tapping sound in our water system. It is loud and in

Congratulations! After years of putting off seeing an ophthalmologist, I made
an appointment this spring. I had cataracts in both eyes and mild astigmatism.
Just as you describe, fixing this was easy. Now, with ‘bionic’ lens, I can
both read a chart and keep a good lookout for other
