Roy, I always run the sheets outside of the shrouds. I have an old book called SAIL POWER by Wallace Ross. The sailmaking practices have changed quite a bit...
John, Thanks, I had given them a call to verify the center to center dimensions of the screw holes and they were very helpful. I ordered the cover today....
We are at crossroads in trying to decide whether to keep our J/28 "Verve" or trade-up for a newer boat. I would like to know what you think my boat is worth...

Hi Bruce, Good points. You are saying that a buyer needs to think that they are getting a deal and that they will do the necessary sweat equity - rather than...
I'd up the asking to $34K-35K, sounds like you have kept it in good shape. That price will put you under the others by 4-5K and should get some interest adn...
Bob, I think it's a really tough market to sell a boat in right now and regardless of the price it could take a year or so to get it sold. My J/28 is an '87...
Bob- I have watched the market pretty closely since purchasing my J28 Spindrift in Marblehead last Fall. Two boats sold last Fall in New England, the boat I...

I replaced the rudder post access hatch with the Bomar G-844 from Pompanette. I had to trim about 3/32" from the radius to get it to fit into the recess and...
I see some boats for sale in New England. I hear the Barrinton boat has some issues. The others have been for sale for quite some time and seem overpriced. I...
