Re: Centerboard Needed


 

Hi Dennis,

My baggy mainsail is far more of a liability. You can certainly sail
without it... I think of it as a special boost for extra lift and
standing up (less heel) a bit better. I don't bother with it
most of the time. But I also don't race often.

If you don't mind sharing, how did the grounding go down? Did the
board break free of the pin or did it take the pin with it or is it
too early to know? Any chance of diving to recover it?

Hope someone has one for you.

Cheers,
-scott

Hey folks -

I lost my centerboard in a grounding last year and am in need of a
replacement. Any of you here happen to have one for sale?

I'm really not interested in a big project to make my own. Hoping to get
something relatively quickly so I can use it for sailing this season (I'm
on the Chesapeake).

Also curious if any of you have done much sailing without your centerboard
and how much different it made in your ability to point.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
