One of the big improvements was the change from the main sheeting to the cabin
top (without the traveller) to a traveller in the cockpit. That change improved
dramatically trimming of the main, even if some complained that the traveller

Actually, it seems that there were multiple versions of that arrangement.
The original CC 24s had the main sheeting arranged at the cabin top in a

I never applied any gelcoat, so I have a very basic question. I understand that
if you apply gelcoat you have to add something to make it stick (or if it is
already in the gelcoat, the stuff would deteriorate in the can on its own). So
the question is, what do you add and how much?

If you go for AGM, you will probably need some other source of charging the
batteries, as well. This depends, very much, on your way of using the motor.
But if you motor for a limited time only and have no shore power, your
batteries would hardly ever be fully charged and AGMs don’t like it one

Have you ever tried Sailkote. If there is anything that needs lubricating,

Steve,
try other marine stores. In Ottawa, The Chandlery, sells Capt. Phab 4l for
$21.50 (or $20 US)
(http://www.thechandleryonline.com/product_info.php?products_id=3331). I think
they would ship it, unless there is some funny restriction. They ship to the
US, as well.
