Cheers for that. Love it when someone takes away the guesswork
-
Same issue here... from reading, I take it that I should dry out the area, then coat liberally with antifreeze... then What? Evadure AFTER it dries out?
-
Definitely on the shaft and in engine. They both wear out to some degree each year. Engine anode at least half gone and shaft possibly a quarter . Thanks for the heads up. I'll bear it in mind and try and get the old bit out. Don't want anything floating around in the engine water jacket.

The pencil anode in the engine broke off the nut and is stuck in there. No way to extract. I'm guessing it will slowly wear away, at what time I will replace it. Can't push a new one in behind it. Any thoughts Anyone?

I know there are so many to choose from, so could be the impossible question. Could be scenic, or a special memory made there. Mine could be Garden Cove on Waiheke Island. Borrowed a trailer sailed and took my girlfriend there... late 1980's. We married in early 90's.

Jeanneau is one of the options actually. Something around the 40 ft mark.

Cant say I'm trying to achieve anything here, just a topic of interest. I like the idea of a lines free cockpit area and thinking my next boat will be something like that. I've got a wish list which includes the above and a few other ideas. Sounds like it's better to buy what I want outright than to chop and change.

Thanks for that. I'd just heard it called Gms.
-
All good info. Something to think about, as I said, cheers
-
I'm guessing it's more just a cruisers thing.
-
It's just a thought at this stage, but has anyone converted a main sheet system, typically in the cockpit area, to one fwd of the Dodger? Are there any pros or cons for this, apart from making a bit of extra space in the Cockpit? Is there any loss to control, tightening up the mainsail Etc? Would the cabin top need extra strengthening?

I think that IRD computer was to match data trolled from public forums on the Internet. But I never said that.

Boy, these suzuki swifts taste funny
-
Ouch.
-
I'm guessing he won't be antifouling anything. He doesn't want to sail, just a place to live
-
So, BP. Time to fess up, what did you do? Nuff time has passes to protect the innocent.
-
I'm thinking that rolling the lining would be better than spraying. Thoughts on this?
-
Good question. Can't answer, but interested to learn of suitable paint to cover vynyl headlining.
-
Good idea! Id come over from Bucks to do that! Is the channel easily navigable...? Ive had friends sit on the mud overnight in a trailer sailer up that way!

What was his name? Tom Collins? I'll have one of those, tom collins on the rocks.
