Hi Jim. This messaging on CF is weird as new message doesn't show up with notification or alert. I am reading your message 5 months later Yes, ended up selling my 47.7 after spending a packet on it. However, ended up getting my money back as traded her in and bought Nautor's Swan 57rs. 'Swanky' was built 2000 and I keep her in Hope Island for now. I will be in Sydney for new year. Hope you are enjoying your Bene. Have you done any good trips on your yet. I sailed our 47.7 from Adelaide to Gold Coast. We got stuck in thunder storm on the way near Ballina. Lighting hit us sweet, right in the top of mast!!!! Scary situation! Lost virtually all electronic equipment on board apart from plotter. Damage bill 35k Goes without saying....... insurance co played hard ball. They paid in the end. Pays to check your policy and simply ask the question: "what if lighting hits me?" All the best Jim

Hi Jim, the Tusker guide is posted, should arrive on Monday. To use it, just copy and paste it into your PC, then set up a shortcut to the EXE file.

Like I say, it's a few years out of date, but still a good resource.

Hi Jim. Did you see my message about the parts for the fuel tank?
