I got the ship notification so now I get to watch my sail travel from
Thailand to Toronto Canada. It's in Bangkok right now! The world is an
incredible place.
Thanks all for the advice and recommendations everyone. I hope I can get my
boat in the water in short order so I can try out my new sail!
That's great! Which weight did you end up with?

I can wait .. I'm way behind on pre-launch work. I attacked a thru-hull
yesterday in an exploratory fashion ... yeah, that one is gonna be a bear.
Will need to cut it out :(
I replaced three thru-hulls last year, had to cut one of those out as well
so at least I have some experience going into it.
They made my cruising 135. Love it!

Last spring I purchased a CC 29 mark 2 - hull 693 built in Rhode Island.
During the survey, it was noted that the rudder was bent about 5 cm to
port.
I have stripped the bottom this spring and it appears that there is no
damage to the rudder so I began wondering how it could be bent without any

For what it's worth, I suspect most of the older CC's are not square
with regard to anything. They simply weren't manufactured to the

Almost all the owners use the same method to set the combo. (hint, it starts

I strongly suggest that any with plastic deck fill caps change them to metal.
Plastic caps will crack allowing water to intrude.
This, of course, doesn't apply to cheap boat owners like the guy down the pier

Unlike automotive stuff like TomToms and radios, there isn't much market for
used marine electronics and gear. The experience around my marina is that
boats only get broken into by kids looking for booze and/or a place to party or
make out. Several on my pier aren't locked at all. I looked
Many years ago I found myself in a new marina and had forgotten my boat keys.
It took me 2 minutes to break into the boat, nobody questioned why I was sawing
through a lock. Never bothered locking my boat again.

I'm on a mooring and there is a beach nearby. Outboards have been stolen at
our club, we're downtown and kids hang out on the shore and I'm pretty sure
they either swim out to boats at night to party or take canoes or
something. Either way, I don't want no stinking kids in my boat!
Where I'm dry
After a couple of years sailing Penniless, I was trying to tune the rig - ran
into the fact that the chainplate on the starboard side was an inch closer to
the mast than the port side was. The partners were OK. So I removed it, hogged
out the hole and sealed it, and moved the plate out an inch.
All,
I'm in the same camp as Jonathan. I'm at a mooring with 24-hr launch
service that patrols the field on a regular basis. My main cabin is locked, but
all the cockpit lockers and anchor locker are all open.
The damage they would do breaking in to those lockers will far
Our 70's and 80's boats were built before laser measuring devices, and
temperature changes could have shifted moulds etc. I'm not surprised that they
tend to be a bit asymmetrical. We just have to learn the idiosyncrasies.

when a company was moving my stuff they locked the container with a plastic

padlocks are good only for the honest people. So the only thing I need is an

Ox came with a hefty metal deck fill cap that needed an O-ring when I
bought her ~8 years ago. The cap also had a small chain that fell into the
gas tank. I have yet to see it come out of the exhaust pipe.
