That seems simple enough... replace the gas A4 with a diesel :) At 07:43 AM 28/12/2015, you wrote: Diesel doesn't vaporize easily, unlike gasoline. That's one of its big advantages on boats, that it's non-volatile. It's good practice to shut down the engine at the fuel dock anyway, but the

Wasn't the dinette table an option on most C&C's? Since the table was an option and was ordered separately and delivered after the boat was launched, you can remove it without PHRF penalty. Yeah, I know it isn't true. :( Don't we wish. One guy did that with a Beneteau 40.7. Bought it without

Charlie (and others who might not know) I feel your pain about the weight and space of your original table. That said, if you remove it from the boat you should report that as a modification to the boat on your phrf application. Should you win a big race the inspection committee might ding y

Charlie, See if you can get on a Beneteau 361 or a Hunter 29.5. Might give you some insight. They have tables that slide up and down the compression post. Use a slide bolt to keep in place. The tables have hand holds on the underside for when they are up against the headliner. Dennis C. On F

Happy new year all! Working in the shop today, I was refastening the tenon to the foot of Windstar's saloon table to its 'leg', and while inverted on the bench (the saloon table, not me) I noticed the flaking varnish and the PO's sloppy brushwork. And lo, another project was added to the list.

It is a lot safer when on a passage to bring the dingy aboard and secure it to the foredeck. A lot of people make all kinds of excuses for not doing it because there is work involved, but you run the risk of losing it by towing. A friend of mine, sailing a Hughes 35, lost his new dingy on the
