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

The new LFP batteries are on board and getting connected today, along with a MultiPlus and Orion. Solar in the next week. In reading the user's manual for the batteries it recommends if there were to

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?

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:

I agree with the past few posts. I was considering installing an external strainer but, after discovering a veritable Bouillabaisse nesting comfortably in my thru hull one day (literally ceasing all

I also removed the external strainer on Arcadia, after finding a large colony of barnacles inside it. Another change I made was to replace the square elbow on the inlet of the interior Groco strainer

Ditto Len Bertaux

I believe it was Jim Starky who pointed out that you'd rather have a clog at the groco strainer inside the boat where you can clear it than on an outside hull fitting where you'll have to dive to

I have heard that some people have cut out and installed an *access panel under the cockpit sole* to improve future serviceability—worth considering since you have a big fix? Anyone ever done it ?

Wow, never heard of anyone losing a shaft log. To me the critical part of the replacement is getting the tube aligned with the strut. If your work with the hole saw is accurate, it will be easier. In

Listers I have 5 lightly used 6 vane, neoprene impellers for the 1/2" slotted-shaft raw water pump. I'm remembering some folks may have had trouble locating the impellers with the correct diameter pin
