Originally I wanted to do just that- drill a hole in a low angle a d epoxy in a pvc tube slash cut underneath to let the rushing water vacuum the excess out.
I mean the plugs only in there when you're sailing and by rights that should mean you're moving forward?
But Ive been told that doesn't work on a 930.
What kind of 1 way valve can you get for a tube - buy a warehouse snorkel and cut it down?
Lost our outboard well plug coming home from the windy SSANZ 100 and have had to make a new one.
Need a method of draining residual water trapped after fitting it and my tame Serbian 930 owner friend informs me a venturi style bailer is the go.
Does anyone have such a thing taking up space at home?
You'd be glad its not a GHYC/Weiti race then Jon...
4 weeks ago the start boat got hit... 2 weeks ago the finish boat... I'm picking someones going to hook the wing mark this Sunday and haul it all over the gulf
I seem to recall a lineage of boats for the original owner:
Wasted Away
Wasted Away Again
Margaritaville
All purported to be Ross boats?
Could just be urban legend though...
If there was a yellow division you could run one of those super absorbent kitchen cloths, could damn near clean up a whole bottle at a time!
But on a 930, one decent gust and you'd be 10kg out of balance on one shroud...
After a wet banging and crashing first night we found ourselves further up the fleet than we thought a tender old 930 should be but as the sun came up the wind started to drop off for us approaching the hen and chicks. Shook the reef out and progressively worked our way up through headsails until we were left flopping about south of the Poor Knights at midday with Moving Violation for company. We were treated to seeing a lot of the bigger boats painfully squeaking around the Knights before the lightest breeze filtered in from the NW and we managed to crawl around at about 3kts just as darkness
