I personally do not know how to make soft shackles. So a group of Owners put a two day clinic together to learn that and also splicing with modern fibers, etc... If any owner in the group is intereste

For me in cold climates I avoid the use of propane/butane at all costs. Propane/butane, when it burns produces CO2 (hopefully no CO) and water (=humidity). If you have a little induction plate, use it

With software, any sail loft can do a good job. They just have to stitch with a UV resistant thread. Not all lofts do that. For example the loft in Port Napoleon did not do that and we had to get the

Chuck and Kim, A lot of marinas do not measure your boat, they just take what's on the paper. I find the USCG extremely pleasing to work with. They are great. They are fast. For paperwork but they als

Sorry, I won't be at the boat until April. I have no photos.

Hello Victor, I had the same problem with our Rocna. I glued a piece of teak on the starboard side, about 1" x 2". 5" long. I used 3M 5200. I shaved the forward part so the chain or the anchor does no

Peter, Don't forget the electronics: VHF antenna, windvane, etc

Stefan, I am not 100% sure where the cracks are. Main sheet block attachment or boom vang? Or both? Do you crank the boom vang a lot? Did you fit a hydraulic ram? Do you recall gybes in heavy wind wit

Tilo, We did just that last year. Threw away the mediocre and expensive Seagull and replaced with a three cartridge set (including carbon). They use the standard, small size, and ow price cartridges.

Craig, this is a great idea! Haven't thought about it. This summer at anchorage it was rolling so much that I could not leave the plates and glasses to dry by the sink. Everything would end up on the

Jose, it is perfect in the harbor. Very convenient as you said in the marina. This summer in the Med the rolling at anchorage was so bad! After midnight the wind would turn to a shore breeze exposing
