Stus-List 34/36 bowsprit retrofit

That is a cool upgrade and a super nice install.. As an alternative has anyone experimented with an ATN Tacker and Spinnaker Sleave? I understand that you'd loose some performance with the Tacker but it seems like it would be worth a try, it's pretty cheap and easy. I'm definitely getting both a

Re: Stus-List Butyl

I used a roll of grey butyl "tape" from an RV store (along with the original screws) to secure the aluminum portlight frames to the cabintop on my 1976 33-1. Note these are old style portlights, not the newer frameless acrylic(?) portlights that folks like to secure to the cabintop with Sikaflex..

I have played with doing something to my 36XL to reduce crew requirements plus to make it easier to cruise shorthanded. My question is how many crew do you need to fly it when racing (vs the symmetrical chute)? Also, do you think the PHRF change was fair and what did it cost in parts? Charl

I agree with either Lifeseal or Butyl. I used to use Lifeseal all the time, but now use butyl more often. One tidbit I found recently is that you can buy both black and white butyl. I used to shy away from butyl for deck things because I didn’t want the black runoff that sometimes occurs with

I will second the butyl tape recommendation. I removed my cabin top hatch this weekend. The original butyl tape was solidly adhered to the hatch and deck. I was able to separate it from the deck with a putty knife, but it took a fair amount of force. A long time ago I used Pompanette's "hatch t
