Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

Thanks to your advice I mustered up sufficient courage to pull the pump assembly out, identify it and seek further information. I found a very helpful Australian distributor and pulled the machine...

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

Thank you for your assistance. I have not considered the possibility that something could be binding in the pivot mechanism but it could explain the problem. I assumed that the system pumped the pod...

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

G’day from Downunder (aka Australia). Hope you’re enjoying your EndeavourCat as much as we are. My steering cable appears to be a length of flexible wire rope which should be available from any...

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

Covid and the weather gods permitting we will rejoin Purrfect next month. Plans are to lift her, probably give her another few coats of antifouling and do some work on the hydraulically articulated...

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

As for the cruise ....
We were pleased that we still had the 60 hp high thrust Yamaha, particularly when crossing river bars. Even with 5 knot outgoing tides, at 3000rpm Purrfect goes where I point...

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

As landlockedgm said but make sure you have a means of opening the brass plate. I have a piece of wood with 2 set screws that fit the holes in the plate and provide some leverage.

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

Hi again Captain Bill and thank you for your message.

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

Hi mate. We still have all our bug screens but a new one shouldn’t be too hard to get. Have you tried https://www.lewmar.com/node/11248 ? Our boat is the Endeavourcat30 so it may have different ports...

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

I know what you mean when describing the gymnastics required to stow the main. Whilst on the move I just tie the sail onto the boom with some webbing and I only stow it properly when we are not going...

Re: Endeavourcat 30 New owner

Hi folks. The original lazy jacks on my Endeavourcat30 were led through small blocks on the spreaders. A PO, unknown which one, changed that to two small blocks mounted higher on the mast above the...
