Are there any good sailing options down there. Trailering ny boat down there looks tough.

At 40:1 you are definitely going to want a big drill motor. I used to use the same method in low budget theatrical installations for hauling pipe batt...

I hate to say it, but the gas powered one looks to be the ticket.

Would a self tailing sheet winch and a drill motor adaptor do the trick? Then you're dealing with line and an external drum that doesn't store the lin...

Surfsail, Aquarius has a gin pole option for their Arc 17. When lowering the mast an important step is to stop the mast from rotating until it's about...

That's the furler. Check Ebay and Craigslist and other classified pages.

That furler is the Harken Small Boat model.

That's a nice looking 19. They are a handful in a blow but ripping fast! You can find most parts here: You've owned boats in the past so the cost sh...

That material can be a bit abrasive.

That Nacra bracket looks just like the mount on my Super Cat. It uses one bolt. It looks like the Prindle bracket uses pop rivets.

My Cheeta mounted with one 3/8-16x6 SS hex head cap bolt and a Nylock nut. Straight through the cross tube.

You will have to figure a way to ratchet strap, hose clamp, or weld a mount to the cross bar. With the kind of forces a motor can impart, a strap or h...

The bottom batten on my SC15 is the length of the foot. It's an Aquarius stock part.

Looks like you got your answer over on the Hobie forum. Harken 072Edited by gahamby on Apr 23, 2021 - 05:20 PM.

If you haven't, contact Aquarius about the hull repair. Tom And Matt were most helpful in advising me how fix my hull.

You'll want to go straight to Hobie for that one.

I don't think they considered ramp launching for those boxes. Access for my storage box is forward between the hulls. The stern part is sealed (I hope...

I suggest you check out the Aquarius owners group site.

Bear in mind, that once you have cut a hole in the deck, you are going to want to compensate for the loss of structural integrity. You will want to b...

Just for reference

Would a Hobie T2 serve?

Build up a nice flat area with glass cloth and resin. Fair it out all nice and pretty. Finish it. Then cut in the access port.

Don't forget your traveler. You'll do a lot more controlling with the traveler than you did with the pintop.

I have an ICOM M24 it's ok. It doesn't have a clock display. That's a pain. Ease of use is important. You don't want to be messing with a complicated ...

I have the cutter tip for my Weller soldering gun. Works fine. I wrap the cut in electrical tape and cut through the middle.

I have to go up to edit in the top left and use paste from there to get hyperlinks to work.

In the last H14 I had, there were big blocks of foam rattling around inside the hulls. Wasn't this for flotation? windwardde, I think you replied to...
