I am a US Sailor, new to Catalina 27 boats, oops, Jaguar 27s and have been reading this list since fall. I will be visiting the UK in late March/early April....
The halyards on my mast are different to Colin's. I have a single casting set in the mast with the jib halyard coming out the bottom, the forestay in the...
This thread seems to be going somewhat off topic, you'll probably get more notice of you post any other stuff you wish to talk about as a seperate topic. :)...

Good afternoon. I am getting my 'new' purchase rady to sail and I have been trying to establish what is the masthead height, in fresh water, when normally...
... Someone had one made from stainless steel a few months ago. Possibly Stuart up in Stonehaven ? Have a look in the archives. All the postings are available...
I'm intending to try the Azores and Back in June this year in my Jag 25 and need to get her from the East Coast down to Falmouth. As I haven't got sufficient...

Just repaired the keel strap today using the before mentioned towsure strap, works perfectly and feels a lot stronger, unlike the old strap you can't play a...

I'm thinking about getting a tiller pilot for my J21. There only seems to be 2 to choose from, the Raymarine ST1000 or the Simrad TP10. Has anyone any good or...
Clive, My mast is 25ft 9in to the top of the mast head tricolour from the mast step. Mast step to water line is 40ins. This is on a rather old Alacrity moored...
A much cheaper and less cluttersome option is the Tillerhand available from Salty John. It does what I want, anyway 8:) There is a link from our website at ...
Just to let you know that I have now been allowed to have my own e- mail address. (her indoors!!) My old e-mail address was metcalfekaren2000@... and...
Hello all, I am finding it difficult to source a replacement lower rudder pintle for my J21 which is bent and causing me concern. The original HA/4217 Holt...
The previous owner of my J21 (89) crudley cut a hole in the cockpit locker for the fuel line to pass through to the outboard, which now lets water in. Any...
Whereabouts is the hole? In my boat there is a slot for the fuel pipe cut in the coaming near the outboard well which is covered above when the lid is down. It...
It may be best to remove the old one and take it to a metal fabricator as a pattern to use as a new one. It shouldn't cost too much. I don't know where you...
I've fitted the ST1000 to my J21. Excellent piece of kit. Most of my sailing is single handed and I find it invaluable. Not only for the tea and sail handling...
Thanks Steve, I was leaning towards the ST1000, but was wondering if it was worth the extra £40. As well as the laziness, I guess interfacing with a GPS could...
Neil, my boat has a screw in water filler cap mounted on the side of the locker, the fuel conector just goes throuh the hole. When the plug is in it's...
Due to a 'NRE'* at the end of last season, I have an Isomat boom to suit a Jag 25, er, going spare. If this would be of use to anyone - or they would just like...
Thanks Steve, I will keep an eye on it, but £122 with a day to go I suspect it's going to end up close to the new price. I think I would prefer to pay the...
On board my J21 i have an ancient Mariner 5hp two stroke, it has a 70w alternator, however on testing the output from the plug attached to it i could not get...
Mine has a small hole in the locker to have the fuel line go though, however as the fuel line is almost permanently in the hole there is little room for water...
Hi, I have been lurking here for some time...I am a new Catalina 27 owner here in the USA, near Annapolis, MD and I will be making a trip to the UK in a few...
Ok, so I have been mostly lurking here for several months. I am in the USA and have been patiently looking for a Catalina 27 to purchase. I am about to settle...
This is a question I asked myself some time ago. I haad a Yamaha 9.9 HP which was far too big to lump around. The Jag 22 I used it on had a rectifier and...
An alternator always generates AC. It is necessary to have a rectifier bridge to change the output to DC for battery charging. These are normally a square box...
