Allot of people probably think I'm nuts for this but when I bought my 41' CHB about 4 years ago we spent almost 10 or 12 thousand dollars redoing the wood...
Had the same bizarre thought myself, but checked and I am turning it in the right direction. Steve ... From: CHB@yahoogroups.com [mailto:CHB@yahoogroups.com]...
When the superstructure on my CHB was rebuilt due to leaky windows, leaky teak decks etc, under a previous owner at a retarded cost, all the cabin windows were...
OH comon you guys up in BC and upper Wa it never gets hot there. Yesterday I wass in a freinds engine room with nothing running and atually got heat stroke. ...
I don't know the cost as such, the teak decks were re-done as fiberglass and the bulk of the cabin works was also redone and fiberglassed, total cost that I've...
WOW I had all my teak decks removed and fiberglassed, I dont think I would invest that much money in continuing to have to maintain teak. The windows do sound...
The windows are great, the center window at the front is now fixed and matches all the other windows. The big wide window frames are gone and now a narrow 1/2...
My admiral calmed her stomach after loosing her cookies in some rough weather, with 4 or 5 G&T's after we anchored. That was 25 years ago and she hasn't been...
Your admirals should try my admiral's solution. She has a seasickness "watch" that she wears on her wrist. It gives slight electric "tingles" to a pressure...
Yes I have a broken lens. A red/green plastic lens handles the color but it doesn't fit water tight. Thanks Dick Bielenberg Sent from my Verizon Wireless...
All that work sounds great. I'm a big believer in getting rid of the teak decks. I also agree I would like the inside lighter. Another thing I notice about you...
We've tried Gravol, Meclamine, Ginger, and a few other things, just not the patch. She was so sick that once I got 'round to Keats Island I had to pick her up...
It tends to roll a bit (or a lot depending on your perspective) but a little tacking improves that. I've been told that using the 'steady sail' (if you have...
Rob What we have done in the past when the Admiral is not up to a strait crossing, is she took the ferry to/from Naniamo & we picked her up there. Also she has...
Great idea.............I've been suggesting similar things to her but right now it's a stone wall. Maybe the kids and grandkids will weaken her resolve...
Dick, I wonder if cyanoacrylate (Crazy Glue) might work on your broken glass lens? Van Mogambo / 34' Tricab CHB / 1978 / Alamitos Bay / Long Beach / CA ...
The felt packing on which the sliding windows run comes in the form of a U shaped stainless steel strip with the black felt already glued in place. Once the...
Barry, When you say "it can be levered out and replaced quite easily" are you referring to the felt lining or the stainless U shaped strip with felt lining...
The Admiral has been there before, but the kids pushed her and now she is hooked big time on the Gulf Island & Desolation Sound. You might plan a trip north in...
Jonathan. I found the bag with some British thread zircs left in it, and it has the specs printed on it, but I could not find the item on the McMaster-Carr web...

I sure wish you guys would clip these long, long posts that go on and on and on . . . Reviewing the email of today's posts, 95% of it is useless, repetition of...
Mike, the new stuff is usually at the beginning of the message, so you don't actually have to wade through the old stuff. It does clutter up the message, ...
