A variation on the spring line is to run a long line attached at the toe rail next to the sidestay, outside the lifeline, with bitter end/tail running back into the cockpit.  Tail remains loose in the cockpit for the approach.  Stay at wheel and throw the line (holding onto tail) beyond the

Bruce, I searched without success for a pump to fit that space and decided to get a self-priming diaphragm pump instead.  The pump can be mounted in another location and the pickup hose will fit in front of the keel nut. Tom C 29-2 Bridie MaeLittle Neck Bay, NY

The Garhauer fits the recess in the bridgedeck well. The modification to the traveller car was to countersink screws rather than flush mount. That plus adding 1/4 spacer under track. They also predrilled track holes per my spec.   Can send pictures if interested. Additional  charge for

Ryan In case helpful, when I replaced the blower on my 29-2 I could read the part number on the old one and buy the same. It installed without modifications.  It is ignition protected but not the heavy duty model sold for commercial operation.  Jabsco Blower 34739-0010 DC 12V Tom O'Keeffe

The hatch repair shop (Hatchmasters) suggested that in my case I might be better of replacing my Bomar foredeck hatch instead of sending to him to rebuild.   It was a good conversation and I appreciated his product knowledge shared honestly. So I purchased the closest Bomar model from the 1039

I would check out the tiller stay as an alternative to the tiller tamer. I've used both. Tiller stay has the advantage that the tiller can be moved easily through its full range without disconnecting the line. I found the Tiller tamer will break unless you remember to increase the length of
