Although I’m not a great fan of having any more components than absolutely
needed in an anchor rode, a swivel installed between the chain and anchor can
ensure the anchor can rotate and more easily traverse the roller than a
shackle. Locktite is a good thing to use when installing a swivel.

I would be happy to send you a few pictures of the bow roller on my 35 MKII
but I know the files too large to send on the cnc email. My bow is not that
different from your 33-1 and I don't think what I have ruins the look. Give
me your personal email and I send them to you directly
Dwight,
I would be interested in those pic’s too. I have a 1976 33 - three quarter
tonner, which is basically an MK I with a different deck and cockpit
configuration and a deeper keel.

Im wondering what size and length other owners use for sheets/guys for
their spinnakers. The FO left me a collection of lines and four spinnakers
( ½, ¾, 1-½ oz. symmetrical cruising).
It doesnt appear that I have anything for my cruising spinnaker and will
need both sheets and a tack
Thanks for all the replies - I'll look into the acid options
locally.
As for the welding - I think my best bet is to suck it up - remove
the rear pulpit and take it into a shop for welding. The broken
weld is right at one of the deck anchors so it would be

I think hou are on the right track. You will get a better job. I can do
welding but when my stern pulpit need work I took it in. They did a much better
job than I could have done.

Just a thought, When I did my major refit, I made mounting plates that
matched those on the rear pulpit, welded studs onto the plates that poked
through the plates and were threaded on both ends. Those plates then become
permanently attached to the boat. Then I just pushed the pulpit over the

like to have a quick disconnect on the base of the baby stay so I can tie it
off to the mast freeing space to bring the dink up on the foredeck.

I'd be careful with any abrasive products. They'll eventually wear off the
gelcoat. The only abrasive I would even suggest for gelcoat is AquaBuff
2000. It's a polishing compound. It will smooth and polish gelcoat but is
still lightly abrasive.
I used to use SoftScrub with bleach but decided
Yep, pelican hook, same here.

Around here, Bar Keeper's Friend is not found at marine supply stores, but most
food stores carry it like Shop Rite, Acme, etc. It is found near the other
kitchen cleaning products. There is a powder in a can (like Ajax) and a liguid
creme in a tube. Good stuff that has been made for 100 years.

Barbara,
I don’t think I want to add an external strainer, I would be concerned it would
only further the fouling issues I have. I have pretty well convinced myself to
remove the elbow (seacock is a new Groco FBV) and replace with a straight 3/4”
fitting to 1” ID hose to a strainer and then
Hi David,
I keep a short length of 1/4 braided line on the bow to hold my anchor. One
end is tied to a padeye and the other has a snap shackle that I clip into the
anchor shank or into the shackle. I adjust the line so I have to pull the
anchor snuggly against the roller to clip it on. The
If you do install a swivel, you may have to add a shackle so the swivel
doesn't ride down the anchor and jam sideways. That's how I left a 35-lb
Delta on the bottom of Montague Harbour.

For the symmetrical the 80' sheets you have should be long enough, but they
may be hard on the hands in a breeze.
I use the spin pole downhaul as a tack line. I added a shackle to the bow
stem and move the snap shackle on the downhaul to the bow stem shackle.

On my 34+ I fly an asym on a sprit. I use 3/8 for spin sheets. I have 1/4
for light air.
I would go minimum 3/8 and consider 7/16 for the 37+
2x boat length is correct for the asym. I used to fly a symmetrical and
just repurposed those sheets. One of the guys is now the tackline which I

A swivel is a weak point on the anchor. When I set up my anchor I had to
make sure that when the anchor came up it was clocked right on the chain. I
just wish my roller furler was higher so the anchor shank would clear, but the
PO didn't consult me on that.
