Interestingly, I couldn't actually install a kero stove if i wanted to.... according to class rules...
(d) Prior to 1st January 2006, a minimum two-burner stove with grill and/or oven in working order shall be permanently fitted with a gimballed fitting. With effect from 1st January 2006, as a minimum requirement, a two-burner LPG stove with grill and/or oven in working order shall be fitted permanently with a gimballed mounting and any dispensations given under rule 2.9 will cease to apply to this rule from that date.

just did the lip seals, and two bearings on my 2ym15 raw water pump. was easy and cheap. use a press to get the bearings off the shaft, but just tapped the new ones one. hardest part was finding someone to sell me the parts locally, and pressing the old front bearing off which had corroded onto the shaft somewhat.
got the seals, bearings etc here in the end

was a great event last year - pity conditions meant we didn't make it to the barrier, but an awesome event from the RYC... would definitely bring the boat back down if it wasn't for that dirty four letter word starting with 'w'

maybe a superyacht anchor if the omakiwi / rawhiti area is ground zero?

That's a bit different from what we are discussing here, isn't it? That's paying someone to operate a boat which they or the club, or someone else owns. Presumably the operator is making a profit?
If your skippers are volunteers, they are club members and they are receiving a "nominal wear and tear gear allowance" eg, $25/day and a beer and a meal afterwards at the bar, then that would need to be tested in court to determine if that was payment for service, in my non maritime club experience in relation to, Worksafe, DOC Concessions and the Adventure Tourisim Regulations, the courts have stated that a payment like the above is not payment for service. But MaritimeNZ have never tested their laws in court.
Sorry may have misread the post. We have moss exemptions for our club owned chase boats

you can apply for MOSS exemptions in this case -

not an expert by any mean but our club as been through this. a few hoops to jump through but all possible

have you seen the thread on sailing anarchy?

Howdy.... anyone had any real world experience with one of these?
need to replace my speedo (the old navman s100 finally gave up).
All I've got is a raymarine a series MFD downstairs with no network at all at the moment. Was thinking of adding a raymarine i70, but would also need to build a network to add it so ends up being reasonably cost neutral.
I will add a speed transducer in time as well (probably the airmar dst810 with the wireless capability) but not keen yet as the boat has only recently been out of the water (typical)
the ultrasonic wind sensor also looks like an interesting addition, but seems to be mixed views on those.
any thoughts/advice?
thanks

I could be wrong, but had a funny feeling peidy's could get an exemption for lifelines as they are classic - that was a few years ago that I heard that so might have changed

Interested in where this info comes from? Particularly re Baltic, which I have, as the information on the Baltic website says that you should have it serviced each year by an authorized agent OR you can do it yourself.
Is the above from ynz? Or just something collated from what you could find?
copied and pasted from the YNZ website.... link here:

thought this was interesting from YNZ - something to consider (I hadn't) if needing a CAT 3 inspection - getting lifejackets serviced by an agent and needing the service certificate adds cost and complication (no argument from me that you need to be sure its going to work...) but a little more challenging for us in the regions
The servicing of inflatable lifejackets can create some confusion, particularly when a yacht inspector asks for the current service certificate.
The Safety Regulations of Sailing specify that all equipment must be serviced in accordance with the manufacturer's requirements.
Below is a summary of the requirements of the most common lifejackets as at June 2021:

we use Nautical Insurance who have been good to deal with - - no claims yet though, and previously Mariner who we did a claim through several year ago no problem. they were quite a bit more expensive when we got the new boat, hence the move to Nautical. two different boats, both on swing moorings at times, although now in an marina

have just been through the same. Was going to be $550 to replace the batteries in my ACR global fix (arguably a better EPIRB with global coverage, not just NZ/OZ) for a 5 year battery. Instead purchased an Ocean Signal rescue-me for $399 with a 10 year battery. both with GPS etc. no brainer for what I need (sadly)

I have the foam / sika setup on my Y88 with an SD20/2YM15 setup. Was like that when I brought it - had never had a sail drive before and got a bit of a fright when i pulled the boat out of the water the first time to find no boot. Has been like that since the engine was installed in '05. Got some advise, and used Sikaflex 291 as the sealant when I re did it. Seems to be fine, although getting a smooth finish was a bit challenging (but that's just me...). just antifouled over the top and seems OK 14 months later.
We also have propspeed on the SD leg and its still in great nic after 14 months, prop a different story though....
