I have had a Kenwood TS-440 and an SGC tuner for my backstay antenna aboard
Coquina since about 1994.
I am not a fan of the hamsticks for anything below 20 meters. The losses in
the antenna are huge for the lower frequencies.

After racing to Victoria in the Oregon Offshore race, and sailing in Puget
Sound, and the San Juan and Gulf Islands for seven weeks, I couldn't stay
another five weeks for the rendezvous. Sorry I'll miss it this year. How about
having it in June, next year? Let's try a different venue - Roche
Had a great sail a couple of days ago. Gorgeous day. Temperature in the
mid 70's, moderate breeze, flat water. Right out of the harbor, we raised
the main, unfurled the genoa and settled down to a great sail at 6.5
knots. Jimmy Buffett playing softly on the stereo. A pod of dolphins

I am in pretty much the same weather pattern as you Richard, and we have had
some very high water levels in Kettle Creek, but last weekend did turn out to
be a pretty good one on Lake Erie. We had the 50th running of the L.E.I.R.
(Lake Erie International Race) from Port Stanley to Ashtabula on

Epoxy or vinyl ester resin, your choice. Both will work. If you have
epoxy and the proportioning pumps, use it. If you're comfortable with
vinylester, use that.
I'd use epoxy or resin wetted cloth or roving. Fill to near level. If you
use the epoxy, wash it with TSP and rinse with
If your going to kiwi grip it anyway, why worry about gelcoat?

I would say that if you use epoxy just make sure to wash the blush off.

I would think it would be better to get at least a prime coat of paint over the
epoxy, not only to help the KiwiGrip stick, but also for UV protection in case
the KiwiGrip gets damaged or thin in spots. Uncoated epoxy doesn’t do well in

Charlie,
I will be painting Kiwi Grip over many sq. feet of epoxy/filler repairs
completed or underway on Calypso’s deck. Over well cured epoxy I am painting
an epoxy based one part high build primer. Over the primer most of the repairs
will also be covered with a two part topsides paint.
I managed to crush a 2 x 4 portion of my aft deck on both sides recently.
I have cleaned out the balsa core and removed the fiberglass/gel coat pieces on
top and need to fill it in (its about 1 inch deep) and then, eventually, cover
it with the Kiwi Grip that
was on it pre-crushing.
I have
As long as the Kiwi-Grip will stick to the repair (if done with epoxy w
fillers), I do not care.
Probably need to check with Kiwi-Grip to see if its compatible.
Thanks,

Fees for initial documentation and for changes also went up at the same time
that the new renewal fee became effective. IIRC it was part of some budget bill
that made user fees dependent on the clerical costs involved in the process, or
some such. There is an explanation on the USCG Vessel
I had a fitting on my tank plastic welded, it's good as new.
Since you're taking the tank out anyway it's a good time to clean it ..

plumbing anti-freeze
Call Edson and ask about your options...

I don't think cutting the rudder tube would be my first choice. I will
probably go with attachment to the quadrant, even though there are risks
associated with that , also. Thanks for your help.

You can drop the rudder by attaching a rope to the cross bar in the top of
the rudder shaft. If I was doing it I would probably use a wire rope and a
short section of pipe over the rope to shield it from being cut. My stern
sits high enough that the rudder post is never in the water while

In the East we had an unusually snowy winter and major amounts of ice beneath
it. In Halifax for the first time in 20 years the Northwest Arm froze
completely for half its length and there were ice skaters enjoying the
activity. By late April there was still ice blocking the Arm

I tried renewing by scanning and emailing last year; they misplaced the
renewal. At least when I called them and they figured out what was going on,
they dated my renewal as of the date of the phone call, effectively giving me
six months free.

They were forced to do that after several years of budget cut after
budget cut. They got to the point where no matter how smart they worked,
they just no longer had enough people and resources to get the job done.
