Since you are leaving the thread... For quite a number of years I've been using Marine Navigator. It uses raster charts, which I strongly prefer. I...

Where are you located?

I'll be the contrarian on the furler. My boat is stored at a boatyard with a ramp but no beach. I hand-launch from the ramp. I like that I can hois...

Another inexpensive option is a Garmin Vivoactive HR. I've gone swimming with it on many times, it's made for that.

I've been using this style for tillers to crossbar. I like that they are solid rather than hollow, that they won't slip out of a slightly oversized h...

Yes, was referring to the BBBB as you called it. I suppose that doesn't belong here as it's one hull short of being a proper watercraft ;o)

Hi Sam, Those 1D sails look fantastic from the pictures, and they certainly have the race results to back it up. What you and I are looking for are ...

Thanks Dave and MN3. Motor I was thinking of is the Suzuki 2.5 4-stroke. Sounds like it might be on the small side but workable. It's under 30 lbs....

I've read not to sail downwind with the boards fully down on an I-20, that they can break. Don't know if it's true, or why downwind would cause more ...

1. Get a Nextbook Ares tablet off e-bay, you'll spend $50-$80 depending on whether it's new or used. It's sufficiently waterproof for this. 2. Get ...

Another inter 20 owner....no issues. I will say that when the wind is around 10-12 and 2 can get on the wire and fly a hull with the kite up and boar...

Actual user experience - I've been using one of the e-bay cheap imported swivel snap shackles for a year, for the tack of the kite on an Inter 20, wit...

Another vote for not that difficult, and no special tools needed typically. The one I did recently was from a Musto Skiff that had blown over on shor...

Thanks Bob and Randii. Luckily I can borrow many rivet pullers from work for the rear beam eyelet post job. We've pretty well settled on buying from...

Thanks very much Steve, Ron, and Samc99us. That's just the info. I need. The tramp. is getting a new halyard pocket top and a grommet for the douse ...

Well, what I did is get one of these: And I run this very simple app: My boat is an inter 20, and I made a mount that slots into the track on top o...

Hi Rob. Well, I'd take the opposite approach as follows: First pin the shrouds at their loosest setting, so it doesn't take any rig tension at all t...

Philip- My boat will be stored in a hand launch boatyard. It can be pretty windy there and there and it's not a straight shot from the boat parking ...

Jon, Thanks very much for this input. I ordered 66' for the spinnaker sheets and 90' for the halyard so I got close while being a bit conservative. ...

Thanks Mike, PM sent
