Greetings, The thread from this morning got me re-started on acquiring a new anchor. I really want a Spade, but wondering if it can fit through the Bow Pulpit with the chain attached. We leave our vessel on a mooring in Rockland a few weeks each year, and I always put our 35 lb Lewmar Delta in the locker when we are away to avoid it tangling with the pendant. (Marine How To has a section on why this is important!! :)) I think one of the Dave's has a Spade on his 362? Do you ever pull it back through the Pulpit? Thanks. -- Triona Sabre 362 #132 Sachems' Head Ct

Sole was rotting out… So I started cutting out the rotted parts of the sole. Not sure where to go from here, doesn’t seem to be anywhere to attach the new wood too. Old wood laminate won’t come off. Maybe but off more than I can chew here. I’m also concerned with the section of missing bulkhead. How do I account for the bilge access? Can I get some guidance for next steps? -- Aaron R Sabre 28-28 Hull 308

Maybe a long shot, but wondering if anyone on this forum can identify the brand of the outhaul car on our Hood Stowaway furling main. Looking for replacements for the plastic end caps which broke recently, showering the deck with ball bearings. Jeff Boyle Daystar S425 #79 Chicago, IL

I'm in the process of reinstalling my rudder (rebuilt by Foss Foam in Florida) and new bearings (from Tides Marine and made to the specs provided by Glen) and looking for advice. I've reviewed all the photos that Dave Short provided but any additional info would be greatly appreciated. A key concern I have is that when I test fit the new bearings in the hull tube there is a bit of play. If I install the bearings in the tube first and they aren't exactly aligned I think that is going to be a problem. Second, when I test fit the new bearings on the rudder post they are really tight ... so tight that I could only get them on about 2" without being concerned that if I pushed them further I wouldn't be able to get them off by hand. I soaked one in hot water to expand it and then it slid on easily but still snug. All advice is appreciated. -- Roger Kuebel Restless S362#150 Padanaram, MA

Further to a previous thread, here is a photo of the Hempel bottom paint recently applied to the bottom of my boat by the Marina Coruna, in Spain, along with a photo of the finished result.

I have a mechanical Stewart Warner tachometer that will send to whoever wants it, all I ask is you pay shipping. Don't ask how, but I ended up with two of these so giving one away. I used it to calibrate my new tach for my W21 and it worked fantastic. Just touched it to the center of the bolt on the crankshaft pulley and I get an accurate RPM reading. -- Tim Dokken 1985 Sabre 32 #59 Bayfield, WI

I am in the process of repairing the headliner in the main cabin of my 2001 Sabre 452. Much of the vinyl material has separated and there are many sags and bubbles. With a lot of previous help and feedback from previous posts on this forum I have gained enough information (and confidence) to start the project. All ceiling trim has now been removed, and I am taking down the 4-5 plywood pieces in the ceiling where the headliner is attached. I have purchased 3M adhesive #76 and #90. Glen Chaplin states Sabre uses (used?) 3M #90 for the headliner work in the factory. My question is: I am asking this forum if you know where I can purchase the headliner material: NAUGAHYDE VINYL, BRIGHT WHITE SF-79 (thanks to Glen Chaplin at Sabre for the info). The NAUGAHYDE is glued to an 1/8 layer of white dense foam which again is glued to the plywood. I have purchased the foam, but all the NAUGAHYDE vendors I have checked to date only sell wholesale. Also, as a backup, I am contemplating contacting an upholstery shop in the area (NY metro/NJ) to get some help with this project. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Hello, I am looking for a jib and genoa for a 1985 Sabre 36 and wondering if anyone knows anyone selling used sails or knows a website that sells used sails. Thank you! Vivjan 1985 Sabre 36 | NEMO Salem, MA

Good Evening I'd like to install a tides marine mast track on my 34-2. The current mastgate is too short and too low for their product to slide into the luff grove. I would need to enlarge the mastgate by 6.5". Has anyone done this, enlarged their mastgate? Some suggest using a grinder. Is this crazy or not a big deal? Greg Duet 34-2 338

While looking for some other information on a PYI shaft seal, I found the instructions for feathering a Max Prop. Reduce speed with engine in gear. Stop engine. Wait a little. Shift to neutral. Here’s the link to the FAQ page: Max-Prop FAQ's pyiinc.com Dave Second Star S362 #113 Fair Haven, NY/Lake Ontario On Mar 24, 2025, at 9:24 AM, Mark Fanning via groups.io <fanningiop@...> wrote: Looking for any advice on a current issue with my Max Prop Easy. When sailing- when we normally put the transmission in reverse to stop the shaft from spinning and to feather the prop. Recently we were sailing from SC to FL and had a very difficult time getting the transmission out of reverse prior to restarting engine. It was real stuck. We had to head straight into the wind, luff the sails, and about stop the boat to get the transmission to budge out of reverse. Normal motoring and maneuvering around the dock the transmission easily goes from fwd to reverse and back out of reverse. Wondering if it maybe lack of grease or gearbox issue. The prop has not been greased in over 1.5 years. Thanks, Mark Sea Biscuit 452-023 Charleston, SC (currently in Stuart, FL on way to Bahamas)
