Re: Fuel tank removal on F32

I’m in the process of doing the conversion as well. My tank looks like it has been removed and reseated at some point. I can get to the new foam on 3 sides but the 4th looks to be tricky. Just curious….. besides emptying the tank, did you do anything else before cutting it up? Did you have any issue...

Davit install Hoyt 32

Has anyone installed davits on their F32? I have purchased a set of Atkinson & Hoyle rotating davits but am unsure of the best way to install. I could attach the base on top of the stern or on the back vertical part of the stern. Any info would be appreciated.

Re: DIFFERENT MODELS OF 32

I would love to see a photo of that swim platform. Ive been pondering something other than just the ladder for the stern.

Re: F 32 Toping Lift - replace line - how is it rigged?

I paid $900 US. He may be reluctant to take on the job though. I had the feeling that I caught him in a good mood. He’s currently working on producing old style rigs with modern materials. Never hurts to ask though. Maybe you’ll catch him on a good day too. At the very least he’s great to talk(liste...

Re: rig a spinnaker f32/33

I believe there is a drawing of the rigging in the manual that is posted on the forum.

Good luck

Re: F 32 Toping Lift - replace line - how is it rigged?

I had a new jib made by Dave late last summer. I haven’t had a chance to try it yet because i didn’t launch this season. Can’t wait to see what a new sail feels like. He was certainly interesting to talk to when i went to pick it up. He told me the stories of how it came to be and how he came to wor...
