I sailed a whole season with vice grips attached to a nut aft of a
quarterberth. Took them off just before we sold the boat.

Just to go back to the days when I had my CC 24...we did just as much
coastal cruising in that boat as we do nowadays in Alianna and back then we
were happy to have one sink and our fresh water tank was only about 6

The winchers do not work very well as a substitute for a self-tailing
winch, but they DO provide a welcome cushion when you bang a knee or
shin into a winch. I left them on for that reason alone.

Thanks Russ - Down here in Mexico they don't have that, but they do have
something called Benzal that is the same thing. That's good for a

You may want to wrap them individually in plastic grocery bags and duct tape.
At least if they crack they'd be contained.

my drains were frozen yesterday with several inches of water in the
cockpit, but it was a one time occurence, so I put a small heater in the

I presume Wal will continue to use it, so this would be for future containment.
As for cleanup, one of the citrus products for oils greases would be the best
way. More expensive than dishwasher soap, but quite effective.
Have no experience using the products on more sensitive skin areas.

It is likely the term you are looking for is lazy jacks. There are several

If you look around the Harken web site you will find some good diagrams of

Burt,
Only the Lazy Jacks don't require changes to your main sail. Both stack pack
and the Dutchman system might require a completely new main (or major
modifications to it) or a new sail cover.
You can buy the Harken set or what I would suggest, assemble your own kit. This

Burt,
Lazy jacks, Dutchman systems, etc. are all nice. I've installed several
Harken Lazy Jack systems.
However, try this simple cost free solution. This is what I do when single
handing.
Release the halyard and let the sail drop. Put a couple sail ties around
your neck. Stand on one side
Agree that lazy jacks are one way to make fueling the main easy. However I use
a simple method whenever short handed or even fully crewed. Pass halyard with
one turn around the winch to the helm. One crew goes to the mast and from in
front of the mast facing after flakes the luff by pulling
Thanks, Rick.
Another upgrade on my list is “George”. My helm is a tiller so I think you can
imagine how much fun it is to set or douse the main when single handing. The
auto helm for my tiller will eliminate the need for an entire crew member.

Burt,
My Admiral (who is much more a “Landsman” than “Able Bodied Seaman”) and I
basically use the system that Jonathan describes for dousing the sails on my
38. She steers (or minds George the autopilot) and eases the halyard while I
flake the luff of the sail at the mast, and then move to
