I have simple question. I need to know the spreader boot size on a 1981 CC 32
#109? This would save me a trip up the mast to take measurements.
Both of the old ones are gone, Ace yard man after a move.
Thanks, Arnold {:-)

Two years ago I had to purchase a new jib as the old roller-furling #2 Norlam
sail finally gave up after 20 years of continuous use. I decided to buy new as
nothing used appealed to me. I also decided to buy a 110% #3. It cost me 3K
from North and turned out to be an excellent decision. That
Not necessarily. My buddy and I alternate. Grind the chair up 6 feet or so
then take the slack out of the safety.

Steve — do you have a linear electric drive? If so, it sounds like the gearing
has finally worn out. You can replace with another linear Type 1 drive; or if
your course computer will handle the current, replace with a hydraulic drive
like the Octopus drive. Feel free to contact me off-list

Dwight,
A full confession
I had a CC 24, but three years ago we switched and bought the Catalina

My hydraulic drive leaked enough fluid to no longer function. Filled it
and everything was back to normal.

Any kind of ladder does not solve the safety issue. You need a halyard (and a
person to man it) to keep you from falling. However, any kind of ladder would

Been up the mast of my previous boat (30MKI) and lived to tell the tale.
That mast and rigging is built to twice the specs of some other production
30 footers. Granted, your rigging should be in good shape, tie all the
right knots, have a plan B, and some good hands on both the primary and
+1 on that. This is how my idea started. When I knew how long they had to be, I
got them made and sawn into the sail.

On Sun, Jun 7,
I would thoroughly appreciate this until my last day (or the last day I have a
boat (any boat).
Does this count that I regularly say something nice about the CCs any time I
have a chance?

I'm in the loving the mountain gear approach so I don't have to rely on help. A

I think the original nameplates on our boats were fiberglass cutouts made by
CC and glued on. I did find plastic raised letters in an auto store that would
look nice glued in place into the OEM base, but I just never got around to
installing them. cost was $10 or $15. The letters I found are
