What rain? It's just a little damp.
I miss my Sunday Race Day this weekend with the Schooner Cover gang. :(
Work. And you know what the gentry say, "Work is
the curse of the drinking class."

I'm in Vancouver this weekend for work Saturday and Monday.
Is anyone racing out of Vancouver on Sunday looking for crew, or just want to
get out for a sail if this rain ever stops?
Contact me off list, Thanks.

For racing on Long Island and the Hudson River the spin and non-spin
ratings are not intended to be used to combine fleets.
These ratings reflect differences in a boats ability when racing in either
a spin or non-spin fleet. For example if you use a spinnaker pole as a
whisker pole in non-spinnake
Rick,
This has been discussed recently for shorthanded sailing on the
Chesapeake. Bottom line is there is no way to race spin and non-spin
together fairly. You can come up with a differential, bu it nothing more
than a SWAG

Rick,
In my opinion the adjustment would have to be based on the wind speed and angle
too much to be do-able. A much easier solution would be to get the class to all
agree to run in one class or the other...most likely JAM. Any way you do it, if
I can clear the schedule, I’ll be there!

OK. I know this has been discussed before. But I just spent almost two hours
in the mail archives rereading a whole bunch of previous messages, trying to
come up with a consensus opinion on how to adjust PHRF ratings to allow spin
and JAM boats to compete in a single (small) fleet.

Think of the vertical "bumps" on Anderson winches.
If your winches are aluminum, I wonder if there is any reason why a decent
welder couldn't run some smooth vertical beads on the drums.

Kevin,
Sailing Anarchy, possibly the Fix It or Cruising forum recently (within the
last few months) had a good discussion about rejuvenating winch drums. One of
the forum contributors does the re-surfacing as a business and shared some of
the issues regarding tapering the new surface and how r
I had all of Lewmar Ocean series ST winches (6) knurled at a local machine shop
several years ago.
I just took the outside parts to them and with their help decided on a knurl
that appeared to be a good compromise between
grip and tearing up the line.
Cost me $30 each and the grip is still gr
I had a set of aluminum Enkes knurled at a friend's machine shop once.
They were on my J-24, and since I couldn't afford new winches (rather put
the money in sails) if figured what the heck. they held up ok for a few
seasons, but not having been re-anodized, they gave up some grip over time.

Any suggestions for restoring grip to old winches? Mainly I would like to
rejuvenate my Barient 24's to grip my new line better. I am looking for the
cheapest and easiest solution. I am not above adding texture with a dremel
to the drum or the self tailer.
What has been your experience?
Thanks,

Sorry, not quite understanding.By "fairly deep angles downwind" do you mean
more dead downwind or do you mean reaching up and getting away from DDW?RonWild

If you use it as a mold, don't forget that the resulting casting will be
smaller due to shrinkage.

Hi Brent,
Had similar experience w VC-Offshore in salt water. Used it for 4 years. Very
slippery and required if you want to sail to PHRF rating. Miss one tack and
throw that away. I think a grey auto primer would work as well. Had to scrub
the bottom before each race (mfr design criteria) and
