Richard, Have you tried South Shore Yachts in Ontario? southshoreyachts.com They have a huge stockpile of C&C stuff, are helpful and ship fast. I got the gasket materials to rebuild my extruded aluminum portlights from them. Couldn't find that stuff anywhere. Rudy is great, too. He is about 15

Hi Guys, Saw this on the Providence (RI) craiglist: http://providence.craigslist.org/bpo/5027782716.html Might be worth a look. I though of snagging it as a long-term project, but I'm sure the Admiral would have me flogged (again). Chuck B C&C 34 Elusive Somerset, MA On Tue, May 19, 2015 at 1:3

Thanks Russ. Now if I can get some decent numbers, I'll be golden. When I was racing J-24's and J-30's, I never left the dock without making some adjustments. Now that the Admiral and I are mostly cruising, I am having trouble letting that go... Best, Chuck C&C 34 Elusive Somerset, MA On Fri, Ma
