Re: Can't open site

The site has been down for about a week now. Only guess I have is they were recently purchased by Latts&Atts which shut their doors about a month ago.

Re: Opinions on CAL 3-30

Actually, quite a few of the Cal 34s have a tiller, mine included. I too like the feel of a tiller, but for single handing, be sure you have a good tiller pilot.
As far as speed, I guess you would...

Re: Opinions on CAL 3-30

As sarafina mentioned, if you are looking for solid and something big enough to live on but single hander friendly, check out the Cal 34s. Absolutely perfect for the east coast and Bahamas.

Re: Bought a Cal 34

Very nice boat, looks to be in great shape. Have been working on a 1968 Cal 34 for 4 years now, finally getting to where I want to be. Let me know if you have any questions, always love to talk Cal.

Re: panama canal fees to rise

So all told for a 35 foot boat transiting the canal, who has done it lately? What was your cost, did you use an agent?

Re: Water Quality In Tanks and Watermakers. Need Advice/Help

I have a 1968 Cal 34 but think the setup is the same for the water tank under the V birth. Unfortunately on the '68, there is no access what so ever to get into the tank so we had to strategically...

Re: How Many Have a Boat Blog or Website ?

Started my blog a little over 2 years ago. So far it has been a lot more working on the boat than sailing her. This year will be different...or at least I am telling myself that.

Re: Buying boat for 3K?

That's how I got my current boat. Bought for peanuts from the marina that was given the boat for payment on work and slip fees from the PO.

Re: Buying boat for 3K?

12 years ago I bought my first boat, a 1971 Coranado 27 for $2,500 and it truly was in ready to sail condition. The sails were in great shape, above and below decks were clean and comfortable, what...

Re: Cal 36 Project

Congrats wylekyote on the new addition. I might be a bit biased, but Cals are great boats and a solid foundation to start from. I just hope you have an account at the ACME marine division, you will...

Re: O'Day 23 blue water sailable??

Your best bet would be to take her up the ICW and then break her in on the Chesapeake Bay. The waters off-shore around Cape Fear and Hatteras are always a big concern if the weather goes bad....

Re: Charging house bank from Mercury 9.9 outboard

For the power requirements you noted above, your best bet would be a solar panel or two.

Re: Commute to Your Boat, How Far?

Add about a half hour on top of that and you have my commute. Try to stay at least a week or so a month.
