Have fun!

I live out here part time in the Bay Area and would love to raft up but I keep my Freedom 32 in Ft Lauderdale. I end up sailing on a friend's Hunter 43 a lot (ugh).

Love to see pictures,

Wow...now wishing I had my Freedom out here in the Bay area.

It would be a long sail from Ft. Lauderdale.

Have fun!

On our Freedom 32 We use an inflatable - store it in Lazarette - just didn't seem to find anywhere convenient to keep a tender without davits.

Thanks

Anyone have info on where they were made? Who made them? If we can determine that, perhaps they have the forms and can cast a few. A few people have told me that they have the same issue. Having one made from scratch is about $1500 plus haul and store while it is being done. Thanks scott Girlfriend ...

The strut that supports the propeller shaft on my Freedom 32 is shot. Apparently the grounding connection on the shaft was severed and galvanic corrosion has killed it dead. The zinc on the shaft doesn't protect it. Any idea where the originals were made or how I could get one? I heard that one comp...

Anyone know the size and length of the topping lift for the Camber Spar on a Freedom 32?

I am not sure how it is attached at the mast as well. Hate to make 2 trips up.

Thanks

I replaced the wheel and was careful when I put it back together to make sure that the bold wasn't so tight it bound the wheel.

Not sure about the rest.

Whimsy,

Thanks for both of the messages. Unfortunately the board wont let me see them when I click the link! . Not sure what is wrong.
