My mast is supposed to be 54’ and my Tacktick has worked perfectly for years. It is nuts that Raymarine has done nothing since buying the company. The fact that the Chartplotter has wireless capability but can’t talk to the Tacktick is just stupid, and forced me to spent hundreds for a

Stus-List Flying the 1.5 oz spinnaker

We've only flown the 1.5 oz spinnaker on Touche' twice. To say the least it's exhilarating. Back in the early 2000's when we were racing the boat hard, we were in a regatta on the Gulf Coast. On Saturday with two windward/leeward twice around races scheduled, it was blowing in the high teens to

I have some but I'm probably too far away. I just used some 1/8" teak veneer to laminate onto plywood for a new electrical panel. The nice thing about the 1/8" veneer is you can make it to any thickness you need by bonding with plywood. -- Shawn Wright shawngwri...@gmail.com S/V Callisto, 1974 C

I was sailing with Turner in a race in Annapolis when we hoisted the half oz, then the 3/4, then the 1.5 oz and god took all three down. Good thing because by the time the 1.5 exploded we were too scared to douse it! Andy Andrew Burton 139 Tuckerman Ave Middletown, RI USA 02842 +401 965 5260

I believe the committee boat could have protested. In any event the protestee should have done turns or retired once the protestor announced protest regardless if it was a flag or a hat Mike Persistence Halifax, ns From: CnC-List On Behalf Of Shawn Wright via CnC-List Sent: December 22, 2019

Very true about the protest flag. Recently our crew was the Race Committee boat for club racing, and we witnessed a pretty severe rule violation at the start line, but the violated boat didn't have a protest flag, and tried to use a hat on the back stay instead. They knew it wouldn't be allowed so

Racing sailboats inevitably leads to collisions between boats and lots of close calls. Collisions are not fun. Protest hearings are not fun and often not done for non- collision encounters where rules may have been violated therefore. Sailboat racing has a huge volume of rules which very few
