Has anyone replaced the plywood stiffener on the lazarette hatches. I have a couple pieces of teak that I could epoxy in their place but hate to remove the hatches to do it. The plywood is about gone

Hey Rick (and All), I'm launching on Monday...Tuesday I'm taking the boat to down to the marina where I have kept my boat(s) since 2002 -- a 6-8 hour cruise from where I stored it this year. Quite a

I'm a bit late to this conversation, but I have two Group 24s on my boat. One is a starting battery, the other is a deep cycle. I remove my batteries in the winter and store them at home. Off season,

We sail "all year" in Nashville. Although I don't do much in the winter anymore, we are able to keep boats in the water all year long.

I must admit I have done little in the past to try and stop the black streaking(seemed like a lot of work). But I did work on it this past weekend(and it was a lot of work). I used a metal cleaner/wax

I wipe the toe rail down with Penetrol a couple times a year. It makes it nice and black, seals them and lasts several months. I do it on a hot sunny day so it will dry quickly. Mark Nashville Hull

Bill, sorry for delay..digging out from the 35 inches of snow we received last weekend...tired of shoveling driveway, roof, etc... Re the "weeping toe rails" i feel your frustration...i haven't found

Rick For the last 4 years I have sailed on Lake Keowee in SC. Before that the boat was on Lake Lanier north of Atlanta GA. I have enjoyed the boat and even when I was tempted to up size I keeping

Hi Dave (and Mark) No problem - thanks for getting back to me. I really would like to mount it on the coming as it will result in one less thing to remove when de-mounting the auto tiller. With the
