Thank you, Godwin. That is a great synopsis. I was wondering if we were missing anything in the keys, but it sounds like the Exumas are more worth the...
Godwin, would you mind telling us your route from Florida to the Exumas? What would be your recommended route if you weren't going to spend a lot of time in...
Bill, Even after all these years I am still amazed at the thought and ingenuity that went into every aspect of the design of my Sabre 38. However two design...
well if you have em and you dont use em, they probably aren't of any use for you. we use the courtesy lights only occasionally, e.g. if we leave the boat and...
On Atlantea we almost never use the courtesy lights. Maybe once every 2 years. We do use the sink in the V-berth all the time. Our kids sleep there, and they...
Our 30 MkIII doesn't have courtesy lights, but I replaced the OEM Perko dome lights on the overhead with Alpenglows. They have red LED night lighting that...
We jumped off from No Name Harbor on Key Biscayne at 4:30 in the morning with about 20 other boats (about half turned back mainly bad fuel). Passed between...
I have had trouble with the pressurized water sure-flow pump not turning off since it was replaced having been noticed in the boat survey during the sale of...
Some years ago I was on an ocean passage from the Abaco's to Annapolis. We had red courtesy lights which were a plus during night crew changes. Phil _____ ...
You say that you're going to put in a 37 gal. bladder in your rear port lazarette. Have you considered that when that bladder is full it would weigh about 300...
Hi Alan, I hear where you're coming from, but as the saying goes: 'One man's trash is another man's treasure'. We use the courtesy lights while sailing at...
Sorry I did not make it clear that the bladder is for fuel which weighs a bit less than water. I intend to add more anchor chain forward which will help offset...
There are probably supposed to be check valves, but if the foot pumps are not turned off at the nozzle, air is sucked into the pressure water system, on our...
The 38 mkII is no better. In fact with empty water and full fuel, the bow is high enough, and the boat is heeled a bit to starboard, that there is a (tiny)...
Folks Perhaps somebody could clarify sailnet status. Just got e mail from Sailnet saying I have signed up to join because of a response I am alleged to have...
After I figured out that the foot pump nozzles should be tightly closed I thought my problem would be solved but it remained. I figure one of the hard to reach...
Graham, I responded to a thread asking them to link our yahoo group. I received the same reply. However, I think what you are referring to is an separate ad...
Godwin, one last question (for now): Can you recommend a cruising guide for the Exumas? Bill B ... From: Godwin/Sylvia Jones To: Sabresailboat@yahoogroups.com ...
Bill, You are certainly right, it all depends on how you use the boat. I think I mentioned once before that my idea of paradise is a hot shower and a cold...
To the best of my knowledge and a quick look at the Sailnet site, there is no charge for using the Sailnet email list. Sailjazz, Sam and Cheryl Boyle's new...
Jan, I couldn't agree with you more about jugs on deck. Unsightly and a big PIA. Have you considered using the holding tank space for long range fuel? You...
In October or November a seller of marine items bought the remaining assets of the "old Sailnet". I can't remember their name but I did buy an item from them...
Jan, First off, the designed trim of the boat already accounts for the use of chain in the anchor locker. Besides, 200 ft. of 5/16 chain you mention is about...

It was advert from Yahoo tacked onto the bottom which threw me - no problem. On holiday so not all grey matter in in gear. Lights on but nobody home Graham S34...
I finally got a chance to look at the innards of the free downloadable charts. The charts are mostly BSB version 3 and 4, which are upwards compatible from...
Happy New Year all! I'm starting to plan moving up from my S28 to a 34 or 36 and have a couple of questions. Here's what I want out of a bigger boat: ...
I'm sure all of you sailors know this old trick, but I reinvented it not knowing the easy way to Transfer FUEL from jerry cans to TANK without spilling a drop....
Jim, I've downloaded all the charts I can think I'll need, covering all of Chesapeake Bay, Lake St. Clair and the St. Clair River where we used to live, Lake...
