Hello Everyone Last week we advertised our cutter for sale on this site, thanks to all those of you who replied. Unfortunately it now appears that our new...
I'm visiting the Falmouth area next week with my CC - anyone down there next week? Martin (CC 15 'Quartet') - are you there? I'd like to contact you again re...
Yes, indeed, you will have company. We ( Martin and Janet Elliott ) will be sailing in and around Falmouth in CC 26 'Thumble' from Friday 6th August through...
Hi all, just back from a lovely week's sailing around Falmouth, based in Mylor Marina. ... Has anyone tried replacing them with clutches? Any idea if the screw...
Many thanks for that! Looking forward to seeing you. I also look forward to checking over your modifications. I'm launching at Mylor and based there if not...
Delivered Dec 2001 to Pembrokeshire. Had one full season in marina, very lightly used. Been ashore since Aug 2003. Burgundy Hull with cream topsides. Brass...
Dear Cape Cutter Group I have recently read the Improvements and Modifications Section on the www.capecutter19.com website . There have obviously gone a lot of...
I have hull 48, which has the original rudder fitted and do not see a problem with it apart from some weather helm when the boat is well pressed, mainly...
Es ging um die Frage, ob eine Besichtigung auch in Dtl. möglich sei. Ich habe dazu nur den Artikel aus der "segeln", wo eine Mailadresse veröffentlicht war,...
I am very disapionted with the quality of the pullies generally fitted to my CC hull 48. During sailing in some freash conditions in the irish sea I had the...
I think there have been some issues with these- but pulling the rivets out is often caused by over zealous use of the winches!- I know I have done it. I...
Could you tell us what clutches you fitted - and how many - presumably two double ones - did they fit the existing holes, for example? The jammers as fitted...
Re Clutches - I made exactly the same point to Nick prior to buying CC34. I even wanted to buy the spinlocks and have them fitted in S Africa during...
I used the XAS clutches, 2 per side. They did not match the existing holes. I mounted them on a 2.5mm thick 316 st stl plate and used the same to back it. They...
I have just bought a larger 10m yacht on retirement with a view to returning to more extensive offshore cruising and as a result have reluctantly decided to...
Thanks for the information on 'Barmaid', Richard. We are now looking forward to next season when our ordered CC19 should be ready. Good luck offshore - we are...
Hello, Bill Jones recently told me about this group after I was asking him about his CC19. I've been vaguely interested in the CC19, but discounted it as too ...
Graham, You can use this materials list on Dudley's site to estimate the costs: http://www.dixdesign.com/nv19plymat.htm No clue about building time but I'm...

Welcome Graham and glad you found us! Exciting news from David re the building in Leicestershire - perhaps your boat will join the 'fleet' at Rutland Water' -...
Dear Bill, Thank you for your welcome. It was my boat, 'Cannelle' that you
saw at the boat show so it was delivered by Bob on the Monday after. Not had
much...
Just thought you may be interested in a recient passage made withh my CC Flyte from Barrow to Fleetwood. I made the passage with some friends, one of them has...
... Thanks, I must have missed that. ... I know. My main problems will be building space, money and, if it's really going to be a large project, keeping up my...
You should be able, in a cutter configuration, to point higher windward flying a Yankee with the staysail. A Yankee has a higher cut than the Genoa. The Genoa...
I've had a look at the timber list and, based on Robbins' prices (not the cheapest by any means, but a handy reference), using Douglas Fir for the timber (for...
Thanks for the advice Simon, do you have a supplier for the yankee sail and the sail area and spec? I assume that the fitting of it does not involve anything...
I think Honnor Marine are offering one as an extra. I must say it's more my idea of a traditional cutter rig... But the genoa doesn't half produce drive off...
I bought it from Bob Brown at Honnor Marine- it is the North Sails Yankee specifically cut for the Cape Cutter to Nick's specification and was made in SA. It...
Indeed - but I'm a bit of a yawl enthusiast - so I miss having a mizzen! And who's going to be the first to fit a topmast and topsail?! Bill (CC53 'Capable') ...
