We can recommend getting the old tube drilled out and replaced with a new pre made tube with Jefa bearings installed by Mike Pearce Boatbuilders Phone 09 444 7510 Mike did a great job on the retrofit on our Y88 and now we have "fingertip control" on a fully loaded reach. Well not quite fingertip (it is an 88 and they like to be loaded) but the difference between old and new is huge and it might not cost as much as you think.

A damn good googling failed to find them and I have learned to view Navionics with healthy skepticism. Photo won't be much use in dark. The old school chart and Navionics sh

Young 88 War Machine battle ready for this one. Only 4 minutes elapsed time separated the first 5 88's in the last race and no doubt this will be another ding dong. Hardly have time for a medicinal rum when there is that much competition! Great new track with some delightful scenery, be nice if we can do some dolphin watching again on this one. Jokes aside vote of thanks to the SSANZ planners. There are enough twists and turns to make it interesting for all of the 80 miles. We have even got a majority vote on the correct location of Shearer Rock buoy: https://www.facebook.com/

This dinghy was from a design by American C. William "Bill" Lapworth of Cal 40 fame. https://goo.gl/MeQ9Ty I purchased it in Devonport where I got some of its history. Apparently it was built by two Kiwi apprentices looking to create something different . It is very light and strong for a dinghy of its size with the layup including including fibreglass and kevlar. Dimensions Length 2460 Beam 1360 I got the family videographer to capture me (and my builders bum .. oops) rigging it in less than 5 mins .

I can vouch for B&G. After a long, and frustrating story trying to cut and paste Advansea into Navman gear (like is says on the web site) we have now started to invest in B&G with a Vulcan 7 GPS plotter. It does just about everything except pour the rum. http://www.neptunes-gear.com/index.php/vulcan7-fs-aus-nz-nav-card.html Can vouch for Matt as he installed and helped us sort out the hotch potch of other gear we have... As the Advansea expires it will be replaced by B&G!

Hi, We have one of these already. It is mostly in working order but could do with a few spare parts eg plug is corroded and seal is all out of shape. Message me if you have one lying around and are getting the declutter message We pay in cash or rum! Mike 021 554 239

Game on ..... We'll be there, dragging the 88's behind us.... https://www.facebook.com/events/692348944225286/
