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') ...
Topsail ! funny you should mention that. The arrangement on the Yarmouth 23 at Soton Boat Show took my eye and I shall be actively translating this to the...
For those of you considering building your own Cape Cutter, consider her bigger sister, the Cape Henry 21. For the same amount of effort and a bit more money,...
I saw the Y23 - lovely boat though huge price. I didn't look at the topsail arrangement though. I have bought a winter cover from Honnor Marine - other boat...
Hellow All, My name is Gary Wallis I am currently building a Cape Henry 21 sister to the CC19. I will be ready to start fitting deck hardwear soon and would...
Gary I expect CC19 owner will be most intrigued by the CH! There's a little flotilla of CCs at Rutland Water - maybe not too far from you. My CC is now snugged...
Hi folks from 'sunny'Devon! I have been keeping my boat on a mooring in Brixham inner harbour for the season and thought this was an ideal place to moor....
Hello everyone out there. As the group seems to have gone dormant for over a month now I thought I'd just post SOMETHING. Is anyone going ot "La Semaine du...
Hello everyone out there. As the group seems to have gone dormant for WELL over a month now I thought I'd just post SOMETHING AGAIN. With regard to my last...
Just posting this in the spirit of Stephan's message and to assure him I received this! My CC is snugged down at Rutland Water (UK) and I must say there needs...
I fear that my posting problems may have been my own dumb fault - so this is a test and if it appears (unlike my three previous attempts) I will post something...
I posted an introductory message before Christmas but hve not seen it yet.Has it been censored by the webmaster or did it get lost in the "ether"? Guy...
Still struggling to get a message posted. Test e-mail no 4. Chris Hodge CC 28 Quest __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - Find what...
Hi everyone and A Happy New Year! We are 'between boats' and delivery of our CC19 will be well into the 2005 season. In the meantime does anyone know of a...
OK -so maybe it's just me with the posting problem. Anyway I'll try again. I only got my Cape Cutter in the Autumn (Quest - as seen in the web-site pictures)...
Chris - it's working! Bill (CC53 'Capable') ... From: melanie hawkes [mailto:mjhawkes@...] Sent: 09 January 2005 10:20 To: capecutter19@yahoogroups.com ...
The cover (ie the Honnor Marine cover) fits neatly over the lowered and removed mast and spars and has a 'chimney' with a closed top for the tabernacle. Also...
Nothing better than finally getting unblocked - and I'm glad to see that others who had been trying to post have now got through to the forum too. Bill -...
My first posting was returned by webmaster,apparantly for some indiscetion. Who compiles the list of boats and owners on the website ?Have any other owners...
Hi, ... My solution has been to make a plywood board that sits where in the main hatch, which acts as a dashboard. On it is the Silva hand held compass (in its...
Dear all After various members contacted me about the cover, I saw Bob and Norma at the London Boat Show and suggested a picture on the website to help owners...
Hi guys (any gals by the way?) You may remember I discovered damage to the bottom of my boat when I hauled her out of the water at the end of last season. This...
I've just completed building my CC19 hull and deck and I'm starting to think about deck fittings and rigging. There must be a lot of knowledge out there based...
Simon For what it's worth: I rather agree about a yankee and would like to try one - the genoa is a terrific accelerator off the wind and in light airs but...
