I think I might as well. Will check for you.

thanks Jon, appreciate you looking

I may, but will take some digging

Yes I do, they are bolted to my deck and I use them frequently.

does anyone have a small Robb/Howard clutch per below (mounting holes at 90mm centres), to suit 10mm rope preferably metal body

OK, that is seriously impressive.

What's scary is there's a bunch of them. Facebook is sending them to me relentlessly.

Lockdown projects!

Yes I did clean the run up and no I don't know why last pic upside down

Today Installed sail drive boot, epoxy primed and applied first coat of Antifoul. 2nd coated internal window trims, installed windows just in time to weatherproof boat for the forecasted rain! Windows a hard job solo in a breeze

Friday afternoon/Saturday ... Painted new charcoal metallic boot top above my laboriously reclaimed white gelcoat factory stripe. Re drilled bolts for rudder top gudgeon, removed, freed up and reinstalled grease gland packers for bearings. Fitted rudder bearing tube and rudder. No play now! Installed new prop and prop speeded sail drive and prop. Wife and kids masked and sanded teak interior window trims. I prepped external window surrounds and installed vhb tape, and marked and masked window outlines.

Yiu should get a credit. If it's good enough for a WOF it's the same thing ? Email YNZ & hope for a reply
