Just FYI West Marine and Lewmar are currently having their annual BOGO free deal. Don’t know how long it lasts but Iwas able to replace all 6 winches at a better price than using my West Marine employee discount. Barbara Hickson“Flight Risk” C&C33-1Charleston SC

The aluminum drums wearing badly (the inside, not the outside). The rest of the winches are in great shape, gears, bearings, pawls. I was wondering if anyone on the group has ever tried having a machine shop bore out the interior of the drum to accept a sleeve of aluminum or oilite bronze. I contacted Hutton Winches in Australia and they told me they do this service for $400/drum. Obviously, shipping 2 large winches to Australia and back would be out of the question. Anyone had this done at a local machine shop? Mike Amirault C&C33ii Lovely Cruise SMSC -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Issue 1 - the pawl receptacle was wallowing out. That caused the pawls to stick or to partially exit the receptacle. Bad! I took them to a machinist who was interested in all things boating. He declined to touch them. He could have filled the rebored the pawl holes. Issue 2 - I had some teeth break off the inside of the drum. I took the drum to a machine shop where they filled then recut the teeth. $200. My ultimate solution was to replace ALL 6 of the alloy winches with chrome bronze and stainless winches off eBay and Craiglist List. 2 stainless Barient 22's, 2 chrome Barlow 28's and 2 chrome Barlow 26's for $1100 total plus some shipping. In my opinion, alloy winches have a limited service life. I would check eBay often to upgrade to chrome bronze or stainless. Chrome and stainless winches look great and improve the "pier appeal" of your boat. To search Craigslist and local classifieds, use claz.org or yakaz.com. Dennis C.

Most glues and adhesives don't work well with the stuff. Need special FRP adhesive. Dennis C.

Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Joel, FWIW, after the recent discussion started by Bruce Whitmore (IIRC) about a hard dodger for his 37/40, I contacted Hard to Top (www.hardtotop.com <http://www.hardtotop.com> ) about a hard dodger for my 38. The quote for a 90? x 46? hard dodger with height and shape specific to my boat, with track on 3 sides for canvas panels, a stainless frame, and shipping from Florida to North Carolina was just over $1000. The hard top is poly carbonate. My quote included an aluminum edge around the hard top. Delivery in 2 to 3 weeks. And the dodger is warranted for 10 years. I was really surprised at how low the price was. In looking at the website, it appears that he company builds a lot more bimini tops than dodgers. Have you considered that option?

I'm going to try to build a hard bimini. The plan is to trace the shape of the frame onto pieces of 2x6, cut them to shape and then screw a piece of cheap plywood to the 2x6s to have the right shape. I'm looking for something flexible that will give the underside a nice smooth finish than can be expoyed to fiberglass and painted. The rest will be glass mat, foam core, epoxy, more mat etc. I know I could just add more epoxy and sand it, but I rather avoid all that labor. Any suggestions on materials for the finished underside?

Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Home Depot sells a fiberglass sheet 4' x 8' and you could use that to make the finished side. It's less than 1/8" thick so you can bend it pretty easy. Comes in White or Ivory. There are Youtube videos that show some results. > On March 16, 2018 at 11:47 AM Joel Aronson via CnC-List > <[email protected]> wrote: > > I'm going to try to build a hard bimini.
