Guys/Gals: Just want to say Hi. Grand daughter Ashleigh and I are going to Ocean Springs Slip to Ship to buy David Rains # 149. Looking forward to training...
Doug, Welcome, glad to have you and your grand daughter on board. Any chance you might get up Ohio way this summer? A week at Put-In-Bay for Bay Week, the ...
Ohio maybe. I won't have boat in time for Spring Fever, maybe next year, now that the red clay problem is gone. Are there any races in the South? Guess I will...
Doug, most experienced sailors sail all 3 sails all the time. I know one person who takes off the jib on breezy days. If you were just learning it would be...
Jamie: I have been sailing since 79. Progression - Hobie 16, 14 Turbo, Hobie 17 with reacher and now 4.3. I also sailed J-30 and Catalina 22 Sport. I just...
Hi Doug, I also extend a warm welcome to the 4.3 fleet. I think Jamie has done a good job of answering most of your questions, but I'd like to chime in on 2...
Thanks David. Do you think she could right it with a righting pole? I think I am going g to get one of Rick White's for the boat. It would not fit my boat....
Hey Doug, where do you usually sail? I'm in Fort Lauderdale. I used to do the Texas City Dike every single weekend with my Nacra 5.2 Ah the memories. ... From:...
Nelson: I sail mostly at the dike and will go on the Div 6 circuit. I am going to try to get out of Gulf Coast Sailing Center and race in the Wed night races...
... not ... Hi again. I don't know much about the righting pole Rick is selling these days. I know that I tried to invent such a thing many years ago and just ...
David: I think the reason you had so much trouble with trying to rig a pole system on your 18 is the tramp is a lot like mine. It is to low and curves wrong....
Here is another. If you guy already know of these sorry to be a pest. 2001 Mystere 4.3 *Ad Category:* Beachcats *Type of Ad:* For-Sale *Description:* I have...
... I think brian is about 100 lbs, soaking wet (which is his usual state). He will be 15 this summer, so the discussion about 13 year olds is a little old,...
Guys/Gals: How would I double stack the 4.3 on top of my Hobie 17? Since it has flat bottom with metal runner, can I just use some carpeted 2 x 4's? Doug Snell...
Doug, The way to go if you're willing to do the work on your trailer is to put the 4.3 on the bottom. The 4.3 is narrow enough that you can run the run ...
Jamie: Got any photos? I am having local dealer replace the rusted bolts and maybe axle on my Trailex trailer before it falls apart on road and they could do...
Doug, Here's a link to a picture of Dave's. http://www.trailex.com/viewprod.cfm?id=54&mcat=87&cat_id=87 I'll try to snap a couple pictures of mine tomorrow. I...
Jamie: What I was asking is if I can I have a friend weld some struts as you said and move the existing crossbars up to the top of the struts so the rollers...
Hey Doug, I won't pretend to have followed the whole discussion between you and Jamie about double stacking boats, but I'll chime in on a few topics none the...
David: I am going to have a friend weld me some struts and braces to move the existing crossbars up. David Rain already has some plywood cut for the Mystere to...
NO! Not even close. With your combined weight you will not even need one. The only reason to have two (sets) is if you have two kids use the boat together....

Mile: So when Ashleigh gets to the point of helming alone and taking friends, then I should look at adding a trap? Where could I get one? The Mystere ...
