Re: Sailing the coast of Portugal southbound
Great to see you are cruising. My f30(28) ck made that trip with first owner in 1982? Clave' has a metal shoe at the rear of the keel extending beneath the front of the rudder. I still have had to dive to cut a line wrapped on the prop shaft once. Photos or your you tube bikini money shots make twen...

Re: reefing points of a cat ketch
I have gotten a couple quotes to replace my sails. I had decided after sailing for five years I need the second reef point only. We have found full sail until we put a second reef on the mizzen and the next step furl the mizzen and go to second reef in the main. Maybe a third reef for balance or as ...

Re: Campbell sailor propeller Freedom 28ck

Re: engine sizing for an F28 ck Hoyt
Clave' s original volvo transmission gave up, an inability to repair led to repower. Beta more expensive here,and although I liked it, we went with Yanmar 2ym15. Higher rpm just takes getting used to. Spinning 16 inch two blade. Flat water 5.5 knots. Fat heavy boat with windage could use more power ...

The previous owners had removed headliners and the side trim. Fiberglass cabin top ground and sanded down and painted. My wife and I removed the liners in the shelves. We then cleaned and painted the fiberglass. I was concerned I would have condensation around the ports as the cabin sides are not co...
