I had 2 mystery leaks on my 34 + that traveled in the overhead. One turned out to be an overhead hatch as mentioned by Douglas below. Pulled the hatch and re-bedded it. Another was the mainsail traveler mounting. Pulled the traveler and re-bedded it. Richard Arper rtar...@wavecable.com

Doug, When I installed refrigeration on Touche' (1971 35-1), I was curious about the existing insulation. I removed the galley sink and cut a section of the adjacent bulkhead away to inspect. The insulation was about 1 1/8 inch thick. Here's a pic.

Listers: I thought I’d share this in case anyone has an interest. On my 42 Custom, I’ve been monitoring a small separation at the front end of the keel where it mates with the boat. I may have mentioned this previously, but my boat has two “C smiles.” For whatever reason

Hi Dough, I posted a bunch of photos when I upgraded the refrigerator in my LF38. I have never gotten around to provide a detailed write up, but I am real pleased with the outcome. I split the space into a small freezer and larger refrigerator. It runs great and consumes about 25 AH a day

I have almost the exact same leak on my 37; I have one of those fireplace units mounted on that bulkhead and I took the flue pipe out and put in a bucket because the water runs out of the hole in the head liner down into the fireplace; I have searched time and time again and cannot locate the

Pete: I replaced the fixed windows on my ’78 C 34 with Lewmar opening ports (roughly the same size and shape as the 70s vintage 33/34 oval windows). The issue with opening windows is that they must lay flat to work correctly. It took considerable effort to get this right on the 34 because

Hello all, I'm contemplating removing the fridge fiberglass liner to better insulated it. This year I want to install new water cooled refrigeration. I'm not sure how the liner is held in place, and how much of the cabinetry I will have to remove. I think that there is some foam insulation already

Over the years I’ve replaced the side fixed windows on my ’84 37 multiple times. I’m considering glassing over where the lenses sit and installing opening ports. Probably two on each side. I’m reaching out to the group to see who has tackled this project and are there suggestions on how
