Just before heading out for a nice sail on the Bay, conditions here today are great.
I am not that familiar with the baby stay set up on the 35/3 but I know the design is very slippery and I believe the PHRF is fair. I chose the 35/2 and was reason was the rig...no baby stay and single spreader with fore and aft lower shrouds...I was familiar with that set up because it was the same as on my 27/3. I did not want a baby stay because of the obstacle it creates on the fore deck...is its attachment to the keel also an obstacle below decks? I hope not!!!

On mine the hardware is: bolt threads into the bottom of a turnbuckle barrel, on the top of the turnbuckle is the short section of rod. At the top on mine the rod goes through an aluminum plate, the rod has a head formed that keeps it on the plate, and the aluminum plate is a backing plate for the track mount. -- Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 Bill Striegel wrote: > Yes,the floor bolt is there.
