Thanks for the recommendation - and for what does not work. I see they have Good Off at Lowe's. I will try this in the Spring.

Tom,
About 5 years ago I had to reposition my strut because the engine and prop
shaft were not aligned.
Turns out that they were never in alignment. I had to reposition the engine by
making new engine mount brackets. But that is another story.
I removed the strut and did all of the prep work.
We did this on Persistence. Other end of line was attached to a stanchion.
Strut was bent and minor damage to stern tube.
Suggest you remove fuel tank as suggested earlier and inspect stern tube
carefully as well as shaft for any bends. Have some one check the alignment of
the shaft with the
Thanks for the input.
I'd love to see any pix. Feel free to send to my email.

I hit something that bent the prop and the shaft. My insurance covered what was
about a $2,000 job. The yard checked the strut and as far as I know it was OK.
I don't know if you have insurance or want to claim this, but it can add up in
a hurry if the yard is doing it.

Try Citri-Strip adhesive remover. I used it to remove sail number goo.

Larry,
I had a previous generation Ray wheel pilot on my 35-3. It worked well for
the uses you described. Over about 12 knots of wind it would start to
struggle unless the rig was really balanced.

Hi all
One more post from me to say thanks again to everyone who responded to my
inquiry. I got so much good advice and information, which will be very
helpful as we work on our C&C 43' boat in the off season in New England.
Thank you!

Thank you for those interesting details Rob. I've always wondered about the
makers of the sails that came in my boat's inventory (C&C 30 MK I hull #7,
built September 1972). Thanks to your comment I now know about Hood Sails and
Ed Botterell. I've got a #1 genoa (~165%) and a storm jib from Hood

Interesting comment. Never considered flying a staysail from a pole
topping lift. We always hoist staysails on a spinnaker halyard.
Opinions?
Dennis
Doesn't a spin halyard chafe if hoisting a staysail?

Depends. Lots of scenarios for this depending on your masthead
configuration. If you hoist on the windward spinnaker halyard and tack the
staysail on the windward toe rail (legal in my area for most races) AND the
wind is light then it may not chafe on the forestay. Or if you tack to
center line
My opinion is not very qualified - I haven't yet figured out how to use my
staysails very effectively. Next year I'll try to follow this article's
prescriptions for staysails more closely:

Grenadine came with two staysails: one
Back in the day, 1970’s, we would have two staysails on board. A Tall Boy and
a Low Boy (I think this is the sail originally asked about). The Tall Boy we
would use on a reach with either the spinnaker or genoa and we would hoist it
on a dedicated halyard. spare genoa halyard or an unused wing
Hi Randy,
C&C did not supply sails as part of the purchase of a new boat. That
practice started much later and was certainly the case when I was with
Hunter. Sailmakers competed to supply sails to the individual C&C owners,
sometimes through the dealers. While with C&C I had the pleasure of sailin
My C&C 44, hull number 18 built in 1985 was another Blair Vedder "Night
Train". It might be the next "Night Train" after the C&C 43. The build file
has lots of correspondence between Blair and C&C about a variety of topics.
The most discussion was about Blair's insistence about the dark blue gel

Randy,
I am pretty sure that your "Irish" sail was made by Irish Boat Shop on Little
Traverse Bay in Michigan. They are still around, but no longer make sails. I
have a spinnaker that was made by them as well, it's actually signed by David
Irish on one of the clews. Mine has a cloverleaf log

Bridge Yachts of Port Dover, ON is a terrible boat brokerage firm. I would
never recommend them to anyone, and they should not be in the boat brokerage
business after what I just went through. In fact, they should not be in any
business.
I purchased a C&C 33 mark 2 from them earlier this year
Wow! I'm dismayed to hear you had such a terrible experience. I just reached a
verbal agreement with them on a C & C pending a survey and I am awaiting the
contract.
So far so good, but this is concerning.

Yep, that's got to be it, thanks Jim. My boat spent the first 40 years of its
life in Traverse City. It must have needed a new mainsail in 1982.
Cheers,
Randy
