Windows

I was searching the Mods page, looking for anything on replacing the the fixed windows above the V-Berth with ones that open. Has this not been done on a 26X

Running Rigging

Does anyone know the proper diameter and length of the running rigging, specifically the jib sheets, mainsail sheet and the main and jib halyard. It has been four years since I bought my 26x and feel that it is time to replace all of the lines. My boat is in FL and I can not get down there due to wo...

Sorry to hear about your motor

I can only say that I have a 2002 Suzuki 50HP and I am very happy with it. Back a few years ago I cut my fuel line with the prop (bone head Award awarded by the crew). The motor ran for several minutes before I realized what happened. The entire fuel system was flooded with salt water. I got it comp...

WOW

I pay 35 dollars a month for a dry slip, get to use all the marina facilities and 3 nights free at the transiet dock. I leave for one night and get another 3 days fee. And no bottom paint. I grew up in Ledyard CT, right around the corner from Mystic, glad I moved south.

BTW, I installed the new Raymarine S1 wheel Autopilot, it is the same as the ST4000 w/MK II except that it has a computer that mounts below decks. Works great I was able to increase my average speed by over 1 MPH. I have never reached speeds...

Wife saves the day

I just returned from a 10 trip (8 if you subtract the two days it took me to change my steering cable around to steer the right way while tied to a dock.) She saved the day on friday night returning to the marina. I decided that I would sail the boat back into the marina under main, two bouys into t...
