Smoke is now sailing out of Bronte Harbour Yacht Club in Oakville Ontartio.  Her current owner has her in nice shape and she had a decent season club racing.   Ron Barr, who I believe skippered Smoke during her first year is also a member at BHYC. david   From: Brent Driedger via CnC-List

I used to have one on another boat. It had a line that tightened it up around the furled foresail from top to bottom. No flogging whatsoever. If I was ordering a new headsail I would order another cover with it. Cheers david C&C 32 Wanderer Burlington ON On 2016-03-29 07:18 PM, Kevin Dris

The stuff you took out is probably exhaust hose. C&C seemed to use it everywhere back in the day. You local marine supply store can sell you an appropriate sanitary hose that will be mush easier to work with and that will be impermeable to odours - assuming you tighten the clamps properly. B

C&C 30 mark 1's will do relatively better when it is blowing. Don't miss the heavy air nights. I never thought mine did that well when I pinched. Best way to tell for sure to is look at your VMG with a GPS. Good Luck david On 2016-07-15 09:13 AM, Steven Tattrie via CnC-List wrote: Hi, I h

Re: Stus-List Dinghy towing length

I tow mine on the front of the second stern wave. It can surf down the front of the wave to reduce pull on the tow line but should not run up against your stern in following waves. I do keep a small fender on the tow line about 4 feet in front of the dinghy and when I stop the dinghy usually

If you are planning to gybe around the front of the boat the rule of thumb for sheet length is twice the boat length. You can probably knock 25% off that length with a single line sheet (both ends connected to the tack). I pull the snuffer down to gybe mine so I get away with a much shorter s

Tim I am curious about why you advocate taking the impeller out. Won't antifreeze drain out of your engine when you take the cover off the water pump? Respectfully david C&C 32 Wanderer On 2016-10-13 12:07 PM, Tim Sippel via CnC-List wrote: In Water : Change oil Check Coolant / change

Hi Rod Mine came with emergency tiller that fit over the rudder post.  If you have one you might be able to sacrafice it to provide the tiller attachment. Have to say though, that you are going to give up a lot of cockpit space given the location of the rudder post. Cheers davidC&C 32 Wanderer
