Selling on your own is not a bad way to go if you're willing to deal with the
calls, showings, etc. When we sold our 34+ we did it on our own but had a
local broker handle the money and paperwork for a significantly lower fee (2%
if I recall correctly). Worked well for everyone.

Finally dealing with the starboard list on Paws.
I just removed 280 lbs of very old 6v batteries from under the nav station.
Ironically, looking at the battery compartment under the aft berth (exactly on
centerline), it's clear the owner ignored the builders idea to mount 3
batteries on cente
I had two set to exhaust on my 34+ many years ago. Mounted them in the aft
hatchs and then left the forward hatch slightly open. It did make a difference
on a boat with so-so ventilation.

Battery capacity and wiring to/from the inverter are the only constraints.
Even at a 200 amp draw (1500 watts/115 x 13 + converter loss) the battery usage
is still only 15 amps assuming 5 minutes of usage. Big wires however. Also,

Any well ventilated flat space works - they are fairly substantial in size

Pretty much the same setup on Paws. The only difference is we run the tack
line (Cunningham) from the mast base up through the cringle and then back to
the mast base where it is tied off. Eliminates the figure eight knot but does

I've never done that and consider it more a "make it look pretty" thing.
You're only talking about a few feet of sail controlled by the original outhaul
and the new outhaul at the reef point. It's pretty well sandwiched in there.
Same for the second reef although that does get a bit sloppy.
In the northeast, many buyers will shy away from boats with 7' draft (except
the die hard racers of course). That may be another factor on the asking price.

Gotta go with most others on this one - they're fixing the sail less your

I still think the little portable coolers with built in compressors are the
most efficient things around. Many folks on this list have gone with much more
involved projects and will almost certainly have good advice. Insulation is the
key.

Can I remind everyone that taxes are the price we pay for a civilized society.
Oh wait, we're talking about Canada. Never mind.
Sorry - couldn't resist.

Sounds like they would get along great with the government of the great

Can't help on removing the wheel but boat leather is a good outfit. Have
bought several items from them. Covering the wheel is not difficult but takes
some force to keep it tight, especially if you go with foam under it. A great
winter project.

I might be able to help out with the first aid kit. We pretty much moved the
ditch bag intact into storage so hopefully everything is still in good order.
Can easily get it down to Baltimore for you but you'll need to pick up from
there.
Let me know if there are any other things you need. W
For those who are really bored - finally got around to setting up the basics of
the new web site. Mostly 121 specific but links to the site from our last

That's actually a nice trip. Jump off from Charleston and avoid the nightmare
of the ICW. Pick the right window. Fwiw, I love the Bahamas - friendly people
and the cleanest water anywhere remotely close to North America. Great trip,
and that in a 7'+ draft boat.

I'm only guessing here but
When I tried to take up the floor on my 121 I was surprised to find that Tartan
had put a line of caulk on every beam. It made taking the floor up a disaster
as the silicone acted as an adhesive. On the other hand, I don't recall ever

Actually... Yes (although they are no longer making sailboats). In fact I sold
a 386 to return to C&C, albeit of the Tartan vintage. I don't regret the
decision for a minute. I believe there are
I really hope I'm wrong, but I fear they are on the wrong path. IMHO, the
"magic" of C&C was a true dual purpose well built boat. I don't see that in
either of the current designs. There, now they'll go on to sell thousands of
boats!
