Stus-List C&C 30 One Design

I was circumnavigating Shelter Island (NY Ling Island) in Gardiners Bay on my 27-V when I passed (going opposite direction) a C&C 30 One design. White hull black North 1DL jib only flying. He was going upwind in about 15 knots and moving very nicely. We were near the lighthouse out of Greenpo

Ed: I sailed/lived aboard a 51 for many years. Everyone thought we were crazy when we removed the bow thruster (it didn’t work anyway). I can say I never missed it. They do add some drag - probably not as much as you would expect. I would think a pod hanging down would be worse. Neverthele

Hi Edd, There's an external bow thruster on a Fortune 30 at our Club. My first remark to the Admiral was, "Look at the drag on that thing!" Any weeds in your area? It also looks like a weed trap. We often go through "tide line" o' weeds on the surface around here. After owning full keeled

I found that the Harken Catalog contains lots of suggestions on how to rig your boat. They have a lot of mainsheet ideas, traveller configurations, spinnaker ideas, etc. Have you checked out their catalog? Or call their tech guys. They have been a big help to me!! Just my $ .02. Don Wagner C

Start by telling us what you intend to do with the boat and for us novices, what is the current setup. If you are racing, there are options which may be different than if you are casually racing or cruising. I originally went with a windward sheeting traveler setup on my boat and later realized

Joe, Not so sure about that. At the C&C rendezvous in Clinton, they packed us in pretty tight. I had to wait for a boat to leave to get out. In Black Rock, the wind was up and it took a few people and some creative line handling to make sure we got clear. In Norwalk, the distance between sli

Listers, Was at the Norwalk Boat Show yesterday and there was a bow thruster company there which had a product that looked interesting. It was a bow thruster "pod" that mounts under the hull (as opposed to a tunnel thruster that goes through the hull). Easier install, can run 5 minutes nonsto
