Stus-List Re: loose mast wedges

The damned things are my nemesis. My 30 MK I came with wooden wedges which were always falling out. I bought a dozen rubber NGA-19 from Rig Rite (https://www.rigrite.com/Spars/SparParts/Mast_wedges.php ) and they’re better but they stil

Risking another topic in tandem with my windlass question. Don’t think they’re easily confused, but we can try;) When we purchased Sirius in October, the wood wedges at the deck mast hole were all low and fairly tight. Now, after a few sails and seasonal changes (not sure that matters), they ha

Really nice setup, Tom. The handle holder is a nice touch. The early 37 is equipped with an access panel in the locker bulkhead which, without a lot more more work, doesn’t allow space for that type of mounting. Looks like good straight drop to the bottom of the cavity. Thanks to all of the subs

On this relatively recent thread, I see the idea I have for mounting a horizontal windless on a custom shelf under the locker hatch . Edd, how did your project work out? Lessons learned? I see earlier comment on this from Martin DeYoung and others. On my ‘85 37, I’m thinking of mounting heavy 7

Michael, When we purchased and first launched Calypso in 1998, we also experienced water seeping into the bilge from hull laminate. We quickly re-hauled and started digging into the polyester “bog” filler used to fill/level the space around the mast step. The leak had been happening for a lon

Dwight. Lew Townsend in Seattle is the best hydraulic adjuster repair person. I wanted to get him to repair mine two years ago. He was about to go cruising for 3 weeks so I had it serviced at a "Navtec certified" shop closer to me. Two years later it is leaking again. It is right now on its wa

BTW. We in Florida do go through the same thought process, but it involves hurricanes. Ok, the storms a week away, the forecast track misses us by 100 miles. Do we storm prep the boat ( at least a full days job rushing it) or wait till it looks like it will track closer?  Then bust butt trying t

Us, being in Florida, don't have much say in that. But our friends who moved to NW Nevada  based on a couple of mild winters, just got froze out with record cold. I don't know how long it takes to winterize your boat, but if it takes longer than the short weather forecast that gives a cold front

Joe: I race every Sunday - October to March. I winterized all systems except the engine. With a heater on board, I watch the temperature forecast.

Not the Florida fleet, I mean places that traditionally would have. I am holding off, it had hardly been below freezing here and we have got nice sunny sailing days. I did winterize the fresh water, some of the system is in a locker the cabin heat doesn’t reach. The engine is good to go. “Other

Hello All, I'm hoping to do a fairly long passage in the early summer from Chicago to Toronto. Would anyone know of someone or a company that could collect my C&C 29 MK.1 from Toronto and drive it back to Chicago? I do not have a trailer for it. Many thanks for any help. Very best, Lee Goss S.V
