Re: F-32 main halyard
I just took my halyard off about an hour ago. So I had both handy.
My main sheet is 5/8 inch, and the halyard is 1/2 inch diameter.

Intake water cooling system antifreeze
Hi group, I'm looking for recommendations on an antifreeze for the raw water intake cooling system (the exhaust system, open loop). The green antifreeze, ethylene glycol base, has beneficial engine additives but it's also toxic and I winterize my boat in a community with drinking water wells. So I w...

Scott - I'm very late getting back to this but your windows look fantastic! I'm sure that the glass will perform better. Thanks for posting pics.

Re: Cruising in Summer 2020 ?
Pat - I'm still hoping to get some cruising in (I'm a little north of you). Work is the only thing in the way.
Curious, do you get up to Rockport? I've never stopped there and could use some local knowledge. Any anchorage potential?
Thanks. Tom

Re: F 32 Toping Lift - replace line - how is it rigged?
Sorry to be just seeing this now. Just yesterday, I had a friend go up the mast to attach mine. I forgot to attach it when we launched! Would you mind sharing how you have the sheet lines placed? Especially what is the first point(s) of attachment after the clew? I am not sure that I have that end s...

Re: Electrical Panel Meters
Tony did you find a good replacement for your meter?
My Bass analog voltmeter is not too helpful if I want an accurate reading. I see plenty of interesting volt/amp combos online, there must be some that would fit in that same spot.
Thanks. Tom

Bilge line - vented loop?
Recently my bilge pump auto sensor was acting sporadically. Found the bilge water level over the pump on 3 occasions, the pump restarted but only after turning off and back on. Got a Rule 500 gpm to replace the Rule 750 (I reduced a lot of friction in the line). The previous system had a lot of corr...
