Thanks to all that responded to this.
I ended up buying a replacement from RigRite.
Looks like a perfect match.

Wow, that is quite the story.
Probably worth adding to my safety routine if we have visitors aboard is a
strong reminder to stay on the boat, even if it seems like jumping in for a
swim is a good idea. Everyone around here is familiar with big ferries, so

IMHO the only way throwing it will work is if the boat is anchored or you sail
back to the person and throw it at point-blank range. If you want to
experiment, get someone to randomly throw something off and then yell MOB while
sailing at 6 knots and then you throw your ring/horseshoe. I am 99%
How embarrassing!
Some years ago my brother brought his very overweight full-sized stepson out on
the boat, went swimming, and then he broke a weld climbing up the transom
ladder.
Ended up attaching a sling under his arms, attached to the boom, and cranked
the end of the boom up with a winch.
Hello all,
I have been a lurker on the list for 3 years now, was seriously considering
a C&C 30 in 2017 but ended up buying a 1986 Caliber 28 in August, 2018.
Despite not landing on a C&C, I continue to actively follow the posts on
the listserv as I have found them most useful and I don't do Fac

Maybe this is why it was leaking? It wouldn’t be much trouble to mix up a bit
of West System and Colloidal Silica and fill the gap in and then sand out.
Not very many MOB stories are funny; but I still chuckle at this one.
I began sailing in 1980 while hitchhiking through the Florida Keys. There

trimarans as their vessels of choice; I fell in with them.

Listers,
As you all know, this past summer, I relocated my home, office and the
Enterprise from City Island to the Suncoast of Florida — and I’m getting
involved in the race management over here, which has been terribly lazy.
One of the big issues we face is lack of resources. Marks are droppe
In my club, it's accepted that if a mark is missing, boats make every
attempt to turn at the stated location of the mark. We have a couple of
permanent club-maintained race marks that are well offshore (miles). They
disappear every few years. We usually don't know it until we discover it

Go to the Raymarine web site. There you may find special sales on
refurbished instrument packages. They come with a warranty, and look like
new.
