Re: Stus-List Adjustable Genoa Cars, 1994 C 37/40+

Bruce, Here's a link to some pics of Touche's Lewmar Ocean 1 ball bearing genoa car system. You'll have to scroll through the folder to see them. Unfortunately, none of the pics are close ups. Not sure when I'll be back on the boat but I'll try to remember to grab some better pictures.

Thanks Charlie - a very helpful description. I'd love a photo, and I thoroughly understand the timing. Love this list!  :)   Bruce Whitmore (847) 404-5092 (mobile) bwhitm...@sbcglobal.net From: Charlie Nelson via CnC-List To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc:

Re: Stus-List Adjustable Genoa Cars, 1994 C 37/40+

Hey Bruce; Be glad to send pictures but I won't be at the boat until after the holidays--racing on Jan 6 and will be there to prep boat and take pictures on the 5th at the latest. The main caveat I would throw-up is I don't think the internal blocks in the Lewmar cars are ball bearing

Re: Stus-List Adjustable Genoa Cars, 1994 C 37/40+

That looks like a standard low-profile Lewmar track/car and it looks like it has the internal blocks to make it adjustable. Add a suitable block on the fore and aft ends of the track, run a line appropriately and eventually to the cockpit and you have adjustable cars. Mind that you face the

Stus-List Genoa Cars and Tracks

I missed the beginning of this thread. If anyone is looking for genoa cars and/or tracks, I have a set that came off of a Taylor 40, Wings, that was damaged in Chester Race Week about years ago. I bought the boat for scrap and have been parting it out ever since. All Harken gear. Jay --

Re: Stus-List Adjustable Genoa Cars, 1994 C 37/40+

I should qualify a few things: 1) moving my Garhauer cars forward is usually doable without a winch under most conditions (until the wind builds and we have a lot of sail up); 2) moving them aft is a bit of a pain in anything over about 10 knots; 3) I believe my Garhauer cars have ball bearings

Stus-List Harken genoa car system on eBay

Genoa cars are always listed on eBay. Most are not ball bearing. Sometimes there's a decent deal. For instance, there's a Harken big boat genoa car system with tracks on eBay. $350 + $150 shipping. Located in Marblehead, MA if you're close.

Re: Stus-List adjustable cars

So I am cheap and I race on occasion... I have the Schaefer tracks and cars with the plastic inserts. I take a 3 to 1 back to the double footblock (other slot is for headsail) it then leads thru cam cleat before going to open winch. When I want it forward the winch makes it so and the cam

Re: Stus-List adjustable cars

Hi Barry, You are spot on with your thoughts - I don't race, but I do like to daysail and cruise for speed.  I also like the idea of being able to spill wind out the top and/or adjust the car after reefing the headsail.  That said, it's not worth $1,000 to me.  So, when I thought I could get

Stus-List adjustable cars

Hey, If you don't race, I question need for line adjustable cars. The boat I race on has them, and they work well. We have three headsails to pick from, and not all courses are windward / leeward, so we do adjust the cars during the race. I don't race my boat (that seriously anyway) and I
