Ryan and Kristina, We have ours tapped in from the outside but they dont really fit. They were off the shelf bronze part, with bronze screens, from somewhere...
Hey there Ryan and Kristina, I'd love to be able to help out with the screens, but alas, our ports were made for the boat in New Zealand on the last owner's 10...
Hi all, I joined the group a couple of years ago, but have not been active (apologies). I do still have the boat (hull#86), mostly daysailing in the South...
I've done this. Can you take down the headliners? Our headliner on the inside is detatchable with screws. One you take the headliner down you can see up...
Eric and Sherrell, Thanks very much for the information. I think your first question hits on the crux of the problem. In most areas, the access from...
Ron, You're going to need full access to the area under the cap rails. Removing the haus pipe will only give you access to one bolt, maybe two. Even with...
Howdy Ron and Eric, Would heat help bend it with some memory. Probably take a lot of it - heat that is. I had just the opposite problem on Nehan. Since I...
Ok. I'll take another look at it. The information is very helpful - at least I know that it can be done. Also, I wasn't aware that there was that much...
Well, for what it's worth, Scott from Sound Rigging (now Yacht Masters I think http://www.ymnw.com/ ) was really cool in showing us how to do a lot of the...
Eric and Paul, Thanks for the reference. I did deal with Sound Rigging years ago, when I first got the boat - they did a couple of little things when it was...
I'm the proud owner of Iron Wolf, a Mariah 31 I am bringing back from years of neglect. I'll post some pictures soon, but I'm curious if anyone here has any...
Hi Jeff! We are also restoring a boat in need of tender loving care. This summer has witnessed many changes including the installation of a Simrad TP20. We...
Deborah, where are you folks located? Paul ... _______________________________ affluenza - “a painful, contagious, socially transmitted condition of...
Paul, Our summer sailing involves our Mariah on Lake Ontario in the Great Lakes. In the winter, we are aboard a Tanya sailing south from Brunswick GA. Deborah ...
I was looking at autohelm products but the 2000 is only rated for displacement up to 9000 lbs. The last thing I want is for the pilot to fail in difficult...
Any reccomendations for replacement cushions? As much as I loved the 70's, my girlfriend isn't as keen our our vessel's original brown plaid aesthetic. I've...
Hi Jeff, I might have the wrong number on this...we had two of them and maybe I sold the 2000. Anyway, have never had any trouble with it. My attitude is...
I'll send you some pics of our interior...I did them, and it's one of the best 'upgrades' we've made. Everybody who comes aboard exlaims, Where did you have...
Jeff, ours is older now, but it's sold now as the SmartPilot X-5 Tiller GP. I like it and it's up to difficult conditions if need be. We started off cruising...
Eric, What kind of tuner do you use with your radio? Paul ... _______________________________ affluenza - “a painful, contagious, socially transmitted...
It's finally finished. What a good feeling it is to finally work on something that people will actually see, as opposed to all the hidden things that take so...
Eric and Sherrell, Your table looks TERRIFIC. What a great addition to Sarana...also, thanks much for all the work you've put into your Slog...the web site...
Thanks Paul! I just updated the slog with photos from Boquete Panama (waterfall and hot springs). If you want to see them too... We'll be departing soon...
