Hi all, have not been on post for awhile. Sailed to Bermuda to meet an online date, that's another story, the man keeps his Gulfstar ketch on mooring in Cotuit MA. and since home, I've been relishing  the benefits of a better sailing boat where I can make decisions (even if my C&C is only 33').

Stus-List Plastic Welding Water Tank

Hello all, We have a 1994 C&C 37/40+.  The starboard water tank is leaking through a crack in an upper corner of the tank.  The P.O. tried to seal the crack with a combination of silicone sealer reinforced with a piece of fiberglass cloth.  Obviously, that repair didn't hold.  Thankfully, the ta

Chris, Josh is right on the money! You want to make sure both supplies are protected. My boat has a fuse between the pump and the battery for the automatic ‘always on’ and a circuit breaker for manual. As part of my ritual when leaving the boat, I’ll lift the float switch to make sure it

Hi Barbara, Sounds like Bermuda was worth the trip after all with some items of experience to reinforce what you already believe eh. The info below came from Doug to the list a few days ago in the 35 mk-III discussion. I think a Landfill 38 would make a good cruising boat. Unfortunately
