I am just tuning the rigging on my 402 after the new season launch.? I have rod rigging and a LOOS gauge.? Can anyone give me an idea of the optimal tension that should be attained.? Thanks?

I recall reading somewhere years ago about leaving the raw water intake hose long enough between the thru hull and strainer that the strainer end would be above the static waterline when the hose was

Hi Brian, I just had my 35 year insurance survey and the subject of fire extinguishers only came up as to where they were located and whether they were “in the green”, nothing about a specific

Hi James, I will rephrase. The net effect is to lesson sideslip using the lifting force generated by the symmetric profile centerboard’s angle of attack. I will try using the mostly retracted

Eugene/Maureen: thanks for the feedback. Nice to know the thumping is not unique to my boat and something to be overly concerned about. I will talk to the rigger about it when I get back and see what

Great idea

Have read this thread with great interest and noting the differences of opinion. Have just fitted an external strainer, and boat is now in water, so that is it for this season for sure. Reason for

Having used an emergency tiller in anger, on a Beneteau 50, half way to Hawaii (quadrant broke), we found that much of the crew fatigue came from keeping the emergency tiller centered over the Rudder

On my boat the top of the "T" handle is open pipe so I assume intended to allow you to use a boat hook or pole inserted in the "T" to allow more leverage. Also mine fixes at a 90 degree angle to the

Hi Jim, I can't speak to Volvo specifics but I recently had a very good experience with Bushings Inc building (in 2 days) mildly custom engine mounts for my Westerbeke when I couldn't find a

Attached is a photo of my shiny-new emergency tiller made by Matt St. Cyr of Cumberland Ironworks in Durham, ME. My boat is in Norwalk, CT so I haven't tested it out yet. [email protected]> wrote:

Hello Bruce, I am interested in the Wind and Depth units as spares for those on my Sabre 386, like the older Raymarine gear, though getting on on years.? Do you have any of the masthead wind sensors?

Orion's external raw water strainer was attached to the seacock with two bronze screws. ?Removal was simply a matter of getting the heads clean enough to accept a screwdriver. Dave

Good day Folks, I am still working on my Sabre 30 1980 and I am currently overhauling the 2002B engine, it was installed in 1992. As any of you who have gotten within cursing distance of this engine

Technically, the centerboard generates lift (not lessens sideslip) upwind. On a reach you may find that it affects yawing as it is raised from the full down position, where it seems to act as a kind

Without constant lateral pressure on the centerboard, it does thump when the boat lurches. the advantage of the center board is less side slip from broad reach to beat. down wind it is mostly extra

OK, I’m convinced that I should remove my external strainer before launching on Thursday. Any tips for doing that? Get Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef> ________________________________ Sent:
