Re: Rigging question... and the joys of leaky bailers.
Thanks for the heads up on the tabernacle pin to be removed prior to sailing, I was hoping the wanderers mast could be rotated on the pin for "shooting bridges" as I have a few to negotiate in my

Re: Rigging question... and the joys of leaky bailers.
Did you have an outboard on the back? Or a lot of weight toward the back of the boat? Water can come in through the drain flaps at the back and flood the boat in those cases. I¡¯ve taped mine closed.

Re: Rigging question... and the joys of leaky bailers.
Hi The tabernacle pin must be removed after raising the mast. This is to allow the correct bend in the mast when the kicker is tightened. My self bailers are also leaking. You can get replacement

Re: Sailing with genoa only
The normal procedure with the Wanderer is to reef the main and furl the genoa. As this brings the centre of pressure in the sails back, lift the centreboard half way when going to windward to get a

Re: Serious flooding in front and side tanks - Anglo Marine Wanderer
Jonathan When you have done the repair around the mast step and bottom of the front tank I would suggest trying a pressure test to check tanks are then air tight. Some soapy water around the tank

Sailing with genoa only
Hi folks, Some years ago when I sailed a Firefly, a 12ft very light boat. I found that she would sail very well in strong winds (F5 to F6) single handed under jib only, even to windward, though

Re: Serious flooding in front and side tanks - Anglo Marine Wanderer
Perfect, thank you. I've got some 50mm glass tape and epoxy so I'll try that. Sent from Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg> ________________________________ Sent: Tuesday, 21 March 2023, 09:25

Re: Serious flooding in front and side tanks - Anglo Marine Wanderer
Hi Jonathan, When I did the hog/mast step repair on mine it was apparent that there wasn't much glue holding the inner lining to the hull on the port side, hence water in the bottom of the boat got

Re: 12:1 kicker
Glad it helps. Just remember to be accurate with the length as there's a lot less adjustment in a cascade kicker.... Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg> ________________________________

Re: 12:1 kicker
Johnathan, Thanks very much for your response. The photo really helps: good tip about making a pattern. I think I can even make out the lengths from the rule in the photo. Regards, Neil

Re: 12:1 kicker
Hi Neil, we cruise only so we've not tried to stay in class, so have built a 16 to 1 in wire with the last part in rope for handling. But you could use the 3 to 1, then double it twice with a cascade.

Re: 12:1 kicker
Jonathon Class rules allow for a 16:1 kicker and don¡¯t specify the material so you wire kicker is in class, as long as it is cleated at the mast or lead back to the thwart. Regards Mike

Re: 12:1 kicker
Should have added, set it up with the screws facing the same way as the mast and boom fixings so it isn't twisted when you put it on the boat. Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>
