Had the exact same problem. It ended up being my secondary fuel filter at the

Cool vid… let’s say 400 boats pumped out at least once a month is ~96K a year.

I’ve used mine on several occasions and it made quick work of seized SS screws.

Hi,
Just launched my C 1983 Landfall 38.
Noticed one thru hull fitting from the cylinder where the handle attaches. I
see what looks like has 2 grease nipples. It is not leaking from the base (I.e
not the thru hull itself).
Thoughts on fixing? Does it need to come out of the water?
My 1983 LF 38 #155 has one.

I’ve got a friend leaving form Halifax to cross the Atlantic in his 1985 C 37
this summer, cruise the Med for a few years, and then head for Caribbean.
He has over 25 years sailing experience (NZ, French Polynesia, Philippines,
Taiwan, Japan, etc)
He has no issues going across the Atlantic
Two of the 2 glow plugs on my 1983 weaterbeke 27 are faulty. I have decided to

A carpenters trick is to;
- place the teak against the mast
- gauge the widest gap between the teak and the mast (outer edge)
- wrap tape around a pencil same amount as gap (This will give you the widest
point)
- hold teak against mast, and trace the pencil (with tape) along the mast

Hi,
Have been monitoring this thread from the Canadian north.
A pattern to consider in relation to depreciation is, considering the
hurricanes, storms, frequency, numbers, and perhaps where people store their
boats for the winter (mainland or other).
It comes to mind the insurers are also

Lisle,
For what it’s worth... My kids are the same age as yours (girl, boy), and we
got our boat this summer, so they are completely new to sailing. I can tell you
from heavy parent observation this summer, they don’t run around under sail. If
they are hanging out below they’re stationary
That’s a great idea!
