Young Entertainer

my one (not sure of brand is in the seat in front of the galley so a run of at least 3+ metres, works to well most of the time. Have to be careful not to turn on just hot water

yep, the crowd that installed the new motor were the same as the ones that did mine and used propspeed on the rubber boot, every time I look it is the only part of the boat covered in weeds. Other than that not sure what you are trying to point out!

+1 for the excel, I had a manson plough on the old boat and never had any issues, but when I changed to an excel a few years ago you know when it sets as the boat just stops. First thing I purchased when I got the new boat, I still use lots of scope normally but when you have to anchor on a short scope (such as americas cup parking) it seems to only need to touch the bottom and you are stuck

Just throwing this out there really, if it is of interest then message me and I will be in touch. We have a Young 11 that i am not using using dues to kid commitments and that is likely to continue for the next 4-5yeats so offering up the use of it if you want to pay the marina costs plus some of the maintenance, think a fixed amount of 1k a month with no money upfront. (just need to work out the insurance requirements) This would cover everything such as marina, insurance, antifouling, servicing etc which i will take care of, and allow you usage of the boat when ever you like,

I am thinking about renaming mine after a great bumber sticker I just saw MAGA - Make Ardern Go Away apparently heaps of cheap crew gear out there already branded in red and white

Same issue as Booboo, not great in forwards and stalled in reverse unless you gave it revs first, according to the last owner the motor always did that, but changing the prop to three bladed folder fixed it. Customer service is great and easy to get parts but I think a 30hp is too small for them

Anyone at a loose end is welcome to come for a sail one or all days. Leaving Opua marina at 8.30 each day. Island racing division so competing and fun. Any experience catered for

last year we were checked while anchored in BOI, had to show the hull clean bit of paper and then a diver when down and checked, then photos taken we we didn't get checked again, Marina staff meet us at the berth to site the haul out form

I did this on Rawhide, went with the isotherm diy package originally, then cut the top of the box and had the copper braised to the back and reinsulated. Cut the power requirement in half and made it an awesome freezer. Total cost was in the 5k Mark

I had a pink hobie 16 called nipples, when I sold it the guys wife was adament it had do be renamed until he pointed out renaming a boat as bad luck but would let her add another word to the name, after half an hour of suggestions none of which where deemed acceptable she gave up, he bought it and left the name as it was

Will be there for the Worser Bay Optimist Nationals and already taking 2 Optimists and a Large RIB so cant fit the last support boat. ideally 3-4m will be used as a support boat for a Green Fleet Sailor. I have my own 8hp engine I can use if easier. Experienced support boat operator, happy to part with cash or rum. Send me PM if you have an option and I can call to dicuss

go the lazy jacks and normal main, that is what i did on my 1020, that way you can pull the lazy jacks forward to the mast when sailing and fully remove if you want to rave. To Drop just let the halyard go andtidy up alter, hide any imperfections under a main cover

moving the cooling off the sail drive is fairly common as the holes block up and the on/off valve often seizes, i have only ever had sail drive and all mine have been like that no issue. New had an oil expansion issue, just make sure that the level is correct and it works itself out. Also check oil is not milky as that indicates water getting in the bottom seal. When antifouling crack the drain plug and make sure the first drops out are clean. If you need to to the bottom seal it is a simple DIY job when on the hard.

pine harbour is on a bore so no restrictions on the hard stand or the marina as no mains water. beachlands and maraetai is all tanks so no restrictions either

boat not coming out just the rig at the gantry at Bucks, scheduled for the 14th at this stage

Whole lot is coming out I was giving to a rigger who has always sorted me out for part but you can take what you want for a bottle of rum, if you need to check it out prior boat is at pine hrbour

i have decided to replace the whole lot so a bottle of Mt gay will probably get you all the parts you need, should be getting removed mid september at Bucks. send me a PM if interest with your number and i will give you a call

or move to tank supply, i am still only 2min to the marina and i currently have 51000l spilling into the drains it has rained so much in auckland recently. Rigged up a 500l container in the back of the ute with a submersible pump and 100m hose an and good to go

got brand new in the box impeller and saildrive annodes (the three piece set) plus a second hand fuel pump, happy to swap for a bottle of Mt Gay as none if it is any use to me anymore

dont suppose you kept the old one, i would be keen to "rent" it or buy the new one if you dont want it, i am going to replace with a new furler so looking for something to last until then

yeah that one, have updated the title

specifically part number 505-508 which is the metal feeder, anyone got one they want to swap for a bottle of rum?

Cheapest 1020 I have seen is 40k, but normally 60ish for a reasonable one. Main thing with them is engine and sails. The association often knows of boats for sale and hat are not on trademe, not all boats make it there

if you want the security of a solid boat with ability to race and keep up, budget allowing go for a 1020, will do both well, better cruising boat than an 88 due to its volume yet still plenty to race with and being class boats only need a couple of sails

Keeping a watching eye on this one, have done island racing the last few years but might be keen for a windward leeward per day to mix it up
