Re: Rig and Sails

I'm thinking the plastic and aluminum fittings are unique to the sailmaker.

Re: Hatches, Windows and Ventilation

Re: Refrigerator and Freezer

Nice! My wife wants to upsize our existing fridge by removing the countertop and putting in a taller fridge. I'm concerned with the weight, particularly once loaded.

Re: Hatches, Windows and Ventilation

One hatch lever in our stbd head is 'very' hard to move. Tried WD 40, PB Blaster; no go. Anyone with any ideas on why this should've happened?

Re: Refrigerator and Freezer

In other news, I recently ordered and received the Chaney fridge/freezer thermometer. After about a week, the display faded. Two new AAA Duracells and all good. That's terrible battery life. I've...

Re: Refrigerator and Freezer

A year ago I replaced/upsized the house bank with five AGM batteries and plan to add three more. We liveaboard, so while at dockside power isn't an issue. When at anchor, we have both solar panels...

Re: Refrigerator and Freezer

Thanks, Rabbi! Old fridge slid right out. New fridge is in, loaded, up, and running. Still need to fit some trim strips as the new unit is not as wide as the old. It was an inch taller, so had...

Re: Refrigerator and Freezer

Anyone know how the stock Isotherm refrigerator on the Mahe comes out? Is it bolted in place or perhaps just a friction fit? I want to replace it with a 'fridge only' unit I already have because...

The 'glazing' (rubber gasket surround) on our sliding glass doors is bulged out in places and torn at one point and needs replacing as the doors won't slide shut properly. Suggestions on whom might...

Re: Transmission position while sailing???

Correct. I also have folding props. Keeping the engine in gear (F/R doesn't matter) ensures that the props will fold. Decreases their drag, increases boat speed. I think that with fixed props...

Anyone know how the jibsheet blocks on the cabintop are removed? One of the cheeks is missing on mine so thought I'd replace them both.

Re: Osmosis fix by Fountaine Pajot method of repair

In fairness to Nanny Cay marina, I don't know whether this epoxy barrier coat is mandatory. It may be an optional insurance coat that can be applied during such a repair. It may not be found on new...
