Good idea , a continuous line , we only have single blocks at the end of the track but we should still be able to make it work . If you can remember to take...
Don, thanks for this terrific suggestion re springs...re the line on the forestay...do you mean that you add an extension line to the forestay...your ...
Ralph, It's amazing what info you can extract when you have all 26,400 messages (lastest update) on your computer. I use the unix command grep to find...
... The physics of the thing are such that the farther away the line attached to forestay is from the boat (bow) the less the strain on line puller. It's a ...
Thanks Michel. Makes more sense. POR is not just a paint, but a full metal treatment. As for the Metal Prep I was looking for, I didn't find any. Alumi-prep...
I have a trailer which was set up for another boat and would like to modify it to fit my 22. Does anyone have specifications for a trailer so that I can modify...

Don, Most automotive paint suppliers carry it as well as a newer fomulation specifically made for constant water emersion, IE: marine applications. Check on...

Anyone out there interested in a Tanzer 8.5M, in excellent condition for sale in the Vancouver Island, please contact me. Details and photos available upon...
Ok, so I grind clean, let it rust evenly, apply the 3 part POR treatment. Finish the job. Voila, no rust. OR, I grind clean, use a paint that will work on NON...
... I let mine rust slightly and I have blisters this year. I'm really bummed because I thought I wouldn't have to touch the keel for years. Moby "Surefire"...
OK, from what I can figure out the key is to get the rust off, paint whatever (POR, Rustlok, Rustoleum...) to a DRY surface, then seal the heck out of it with...
It is made is the USA. Do a search on POR and you will locate the plant. They have an 800 number and can provide information and a dealer address hopefully...
At the risk of repeating myself and others. I ground my keel to shiny. I applied the metal prep, I painted with POR black, two coats. I then applied the VC17...
The POR is impermeable stuff. I am no expert but it does sound like some keels are not being prepared very well and the metal primer is not being used. It only...
The POR's web site has a ton of information on the application of POR15. Somewhere on the site I read that if you sandblast or grind to shiny metal then you...
That will work until the first crack happens. The keel on my 28 was sandblasted and fiberglassed before I got it. The fiberglass has failed in at least one...
