The mast gets pinned a the base to the base plate. Mine is a bolt with nuts (threaded). Looking to switch to a easier release such as a smooth pin with a ring in the end. Wondering if anyone has done such? If so any suggestions?

Trying to setup the ropes for my main halyard and down sail back to my cockpit but I’m trying to avoid drilling . See my photo but I’m not please with how the rope is rubbing the side of the pulley. Any suggestions https://i.postimg.cc/BjBqSS7C/IMG-5171.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/3dhVKgsP/IMG-5173.jpg

Any suggestions where to purchase a bbq that I can mount on the rail or with its own mount? Thanks.

Have a pic to share?

Last year I found the rope in the bottom of the roller wouldn’t roll properly due to the angle of approach. Added this simple pulley today and seems to have corrected the issue . Figured I’d share..

I need a few set screws for the stanchions. I noticed a few are missing from the original owner. Not easy to find in my area, but lots I can purchase online, but trying to figure out the size. Any thoughts?

Looking to replace my hal yard. Any recommendations on the length, size and type of rope? Also as I’m rigging this for solo sailing, in the past when I’ve let go my halyard the sail hasn’t always dropped the entire way without me pulling on it.. wondering if I should have a line the riders up with t...

Anyone still using the original trailer and have had to replace the axle? Wondering what length axle you went with as this one seems non standard? Had a bearing failure this weekend that resulted in hub and axle shaft damage. Thanks.

Any ideas where I can purchase the fabric cover that would normal go around the pop top when it is raised?

Sorry I am referring to the rudder hold down hole. The owner had the cable through that hole... Do you have it threaded through the rudder hold down hole, or do you have it attached to a bolt that goes through?

Curious how most people attached their cable to the rudder back to the tiller? Previous owner used a combination of steel cable on rudder and in metal then it went to rope… I don’t like the metal cable as I think it will cut into the rudder..

Thanks, has anyone used any other materials to make up some of the gap between the rudder and the castle opening?

Wondering if anyone ever replaced the steering post. Looks like the bolts go into a cavity that I can’t access ..

My rudder castle opening seems to be about 1.25 in, but the standard rudder from bwyachts or rudder craft is about 1.75”.. The previous home made rudder was only 1 inch.. I’m wondering if there should be enough give in the bracket to accept this standard size rudder.. Thougths?
