I've just sold my 1983 24 Mk II, thanks for several responses re the sale
process. So this will be my last or close-to-last posting. By the way, I did
mention this list to the purchaser, having often found it to be of use or
amusement over the years.

copies of survey, etc (redact personal
information) and extra pictures and put them up on a image hosting site like
Flickr. Then link in the ad.
By the way I hate ads that show multiple interior shots and nothing of any of
the systems, engine, etc.

Regret to say that the time has come to part with The Boat after many years of
great fun. Watch this space. Any advice on how to do this, I have little
practice! Patrick Wesley

I've often single-handed and consider heaving-to an essential tool. On my boat
I can reef the main while hove-to. If the wind is already strong it can take a
bit of tweaking to balance the sails.
One lister seemed to indicate that he can heave-to with foresail alone, this I

To those who replied to my earlier posting, all went well and there was minimal
damage to the aluminum block, also minimal damage to the deck around the U
bolt.
So I've lived to sail another day! And as a bonus the rigger pointed out
several other places where the rigging could be improved.

you're out there sailing.
If you get rid of the boat you'll end up going to Bingo nights and bus tours of

Hi All!
I’ve been busy moving to Vancouver Island and not keeping up with the list.
Rotating the fasteners
increases the potential of breaking the seal. If I want to tighten the nuts
