Re: Navik windvane self-steering

I am in Malaysia so shipping will be expensive. Also your price is very high. These Naviks sold for € 1800 new in 2007, with a warranty. The highest price I have seen, was $ 1200 for a unit that had...

Re: Second hand equipment wanted.

I am based in Malaysia, so will need to have things shipped here. As there is virtually no chance of finding either a Navik, or a kerosene stove here, I have no choice. What do you have for sale?

Re: Balmar MC-614 Regulator Failure - Software Reset????

Can you find another boat with a 614, then swap regulators temporarily. That will enable you to pin point the problem. I did that when I had the same problem, and it indicated a wiring harness...

Re: tiller pilot ts 2000 raymarine

Have a look at the Pelagic tiller pilot. It is a much stronger, and more robust unit than the Raymarine. I use it on my steel Ebbtide 36 which weighs over 12 tons. It is not expensive either! I would...

Thumbs up Re: anyone used a Reef Rite Furler

I have a ReetRite furler on my steel Ebbtide 36 cutter. It is a great bit of kit, rugged, reliable and, combined with the Kiwi slides, a game changer. I usually sail alone, and have 4 sails that that...

Re: TillerPilot on Double Ender

That unit is just way too weak for reliable service on your boat, unless you use it linked to a windvane system. The Pelagic tillerpilot is much more powerful and robust.

Re: Propane, alcohol or kerosene stoves?

Google "atonvoyages", James made a simple, cheap, gimbaled single burner stove. This is a safe, hot fuel, ideal for a small real voyaging sailboat.
