After spending a wonderful weekend with a bunch of great folks, Manon and I sailed back to Havre de Grace under the strongest conditions we have been in yet. We usually stay put if the forecast is over 20. The forecast was 20s with gusts to 30+. I was looking forward to testing my new rig,

NE is definitely just as fun. I have always recommended everyone participate in the NE rendezvous. I just know that there are a lot of owners who simply can't make it so far north... by boat or car. I liked the Annapolis location for the reasons that Joe mentioned. Though the accommodations

I would be happy to do Annapolis again. It worked out well IMHO. I am not sure if we would gain or lose moving somewhere else. Maybe alternate with a more southern port? Norfolk area maybe? I will say easy road access, places to stay on shore, and things to do on shore worked well. Having the

That is not true with A4 direct drive boats. The redline RPM of an A4 is 3600 RPMs. Outside of a few planing powerboats or perhaps the reduction gear A4s, none of them get near that. Many direct drive A4 boats are massively over propped and hit maybe 2000 RPM. The 10x7 Indigo 3 blade will get

The prop diameter should be as large as possible while still clearing the hull by a couple of inches. When you run the engine at full throttle, you should be able to reach rated rpm. If the engine runs more than 5% over rated rpm, the pitch is too low. If the engine cannot reach rated rpm, the

I just got an asym chute this year and ran the tack line through the bow roller and back to a cleat near the cockpit on my 33. Given that I was just trying it out this year and don't have an experienced crew, I only flew it in winds up to 9-10 knots. Worked quite well under those conditions.

Depends on what your goal is. For superior performance under power, this prop cannot be beat: http://www.atomic4.com/propeller.html A folding prop is faster under sail for sure and most racers would want one. 6.2 knots is good, do you have RPM and manifold pressure readings for the boat? Joe

I determined at haulout this weekend our newly-acquired 1975 C 30 MKI, Atomic 4, direct drive is equipped with a Gori two-blade folding prop, measuring approx. 11.5". I have neither the experience or expertise to know if this is a great prop for the boat, a lousy one, or, more likely, somewhere in

Thanks to Josh for organizing the rendezvous. It was great to meet everyone and talk "C". Wonder who served more painkillers over the weekend, the C'ers or Pussers? :) Rather than several regional rendezvous, how about one central North American rendezvous? I suggest Hays, Kansas. LOL.
