I had to use them once on one of my SC20's. You have to climb the boat to get to the upper shroud. Once up there I pulled the pin and the hull dropp...

You did good on that one, it has a self tacking jib! I have redone a couple SC 17's and 20's, I love the 17. The last one I built I went with the se...

The backing plates on my 20 may have been necessary because of the size of the sail/boat loads. At the end of the day Tom Haberman said to put one in...

I've redone a couple SC 20's and a couple SC17's. Tom's help was invaluable, great company and guy. When I redid the last 20 he also told me he di...

Shameless plug for my F16 that’s for sale! /a>. $7500 gets it! I’m racing it solo this weekend, they are great boats. My wife and I had a lot of ...

I've got a competitive F16 for sale ready to sail with a basic trailer, beach wheels, cover, etc in South Carolina.

I had a couple of those tramps that Tom made for me on a SC 17&20. Gahamby is correct that they are abrasive, but are really well built. They are al...

Thanks! If you sent me a PM it didn't come through

Shameless plug, I’ve got a nice F16 for sale that would look good on you! /a> I have Both boats, they are both fun.Edited by lakewateree on Jan 27, 2...

They are the same mast, only difference is the 19 has diamond wires. Sails have a different cut. The mast for the SC19xl was the same mast used on t...

Yes. I used a 40 or 55mm turning block and simply lashed to the tramp i believe. There's really no load on the line so it didn't need any strength. ...

jlooby- I'm not sure what the torsion line was made of, pretty large diameter. Got it from Seldon with the furler. Bill- I believe this is the bloc...

It was my boat that Bach was referring to. The top down furler was nice for cruising and may be the ticket for the larger spins on some of the bigger...

you can always move the tires more towards the center. I've had to do that before. The bearings are held in place by big plastic disks and cotter pi...

The Smyth sails I got for my old 20 were made oversees. They were well made.

I agree with Dave on supporting Aquarius, and have on everything but sails.... I got a main and self tacking jib for my SC20 and a self tacking jib f...

Red gear racing sells an assortment of them. I have one of their big ones and it holds everything I could possibly want to take. Robbie said he even...

When I was shopping the Seldon was a good bit cheaper than the others, but the Ronstan I just looked up seems to be much cheaper and includes swivel, ...

I used the Seldon version of that for a top down furling spin on a Supercat 20 . That price includes the top swivel too I believe. You also need a c...

I went from a Nacra 500 to an F16 and had been sailing for about a year and a half, my wife (then gf) had about 1 month experience. We took a few lic...

If it was a good repair I wouldn’t be that concerned. My first A cat had a mast that was repaired like 3 owners previous. No issues with it at all. ...

I have an '09 Viper (F16) and haven't had a lick of trouble with it. It's great boat, love it. I believe there was an issue with a fitting on the sh...

Spoke with the owner a couple years ago, believe it’s a modified SC19. Really nice guy, any mods I’d imagine were done well. He designed a tilt trail...

What kind of dry gloves do you use?

+1 on those dry bibs. I have the same thing, picked them up on ebay in like new condition. Spend the money to get the zipper, life saver if you have...

I trailer behind my RV all the time. I have front and rear mast stands like your Trailex trailer has. The mast can't go any farther than the trailer...

Just spend the Christmas money and get the new Harken GP (Grand-Prix) system. Can go 10;1, 11:1, or 12:1!

We use them on A cats, if you’re used to the telescoping sticks it’ll take a little getting used to. They have a quick disconnect that you will need ...
