i havent figured out how to stop the boom from hiting the boom gallows. yes the sail is up all the way, i've adjusted the gaff, tightened all and i still get...
Dale, Yes, you are right. In the rough it appears that the traveler bar will be high enough that the tiller will avoid knees, and will probably be the the way...
If you are talking about a solid SS bar welding would be very difficult since the stern rail is tubular, if it is a SS tube you could have it welded. I like...
Skid, Regarding the boom hitting the boom gallows: my advice is not that of an expert, to be sure, because I have only had my Suncat for a short time and I am...

Skid, I own a Picnic Cat, but but I think the mechanics must be similar. My answer would be, sail still isn't all the way up, or at least as far up as it needs...
Ditto that. I need to investigate exactly why but it's hard to get the sail raised that last little bit. A couple of inches off there, and the boom hits...

Dave, nice job. This is for an Aquarius, don't know about the length but a phone call should take care of that in due order. Looks pretty good to me too. Steve...

Skid, I suppose it's possible the OEM sailmaker made your luff longer than it should be. You could measure it carefully, and find out from Gerry Hutchins what...
Yes, Dale, that's the idea but like most travelers today they get put in strange places because they simply don't fit much of anywhere else with the boat...
Could it be the halyard? On my cp23 & cp16 I could only raise the mast to within about 5inches of the masthead. The halyard had a metal clip spliced to the end...
Hi Bwana I wasn't referring to the length... I was assuming you were going with a stainless rod/tube... I was just talking about the end fittings... if...
I just bought an unfinished main 3.8 ounce Dacron for my cp16. I plan to add grommets and slugs for the luff and foot. It currently does not have a bolt rope....
Cut and pasted from what I wrote over there. I know some people here don't visit the site, and I wanted as many eyeballs on this as possible for all of my CP...
Thank you Kurt for all you [ and the others in the past] have done for this group. Almost everywhere i go, do i see the com-pac group and site mentioned as...
I wish to mount a 3'VHF antenna on the mast of my CP19. It will have to get along with a Windex. Shakespeare says it does not have an antenna mounting device...
Re-mount the Windex on a horizontal bar to clear it of the antenna. Check the Davis catalog -- they have one. Jim ... I wish to mount a 3'VHF antenna on the...
Hey, Ned, I just checked the Davis site and they have a cool solution -- a Windex that mounts ON your antenna. Pretty neat. Go to www.davisnet.com Called the...
Sorry to know you will probably be leaving our group, Kurt. We certainly will miss your in-put but I know the call of the sea is a strong one and once you have...
Hi Kurt, as a newbie on this site I watched the CPYOA site grow with great interest and pride for you. I do hope you find your new adventure fulfilling and we...
Terry - Thank you, sir. :) I'd point out that I am just an enabler, it's the folks who contribute all that good content that deserve the praise. :) Re: Sailing...
I appreciate the sentiments, and the way that you pen them. It will be quite a while before I go anywhere far, and, of course, the whole gruesome refit process...
