YIKES!!!
Michael: Was that a 'per o-ring' price? If so, we need to spec a spare and check with McMaster-Carr! That seems like for more than I ever paid for them and I'm pretty sure I bought half a dozen the last time I got some. The last Volvo dealer I worked with (and got great service from!) was Marine Mai...

Hi Mark, You should be able to get them from most any decent Volvo dealer - if their willing to look up the part number for you... and they aren't very expensive at all. I should have the number floating around somewhere but I won't be seeing KAYLA for another week or so - headed to Niceville FL thi...

Re: The Importance of Being an Earnest compass
In the prologue to his book "Compass" Alan Gurney tells the wonderful tale of a decked-out, fully electronic, very expensive sailing ship launched in 1998. In the first night out, a moonless, pitch-black night, all electronics fail. At that point the skipper realizes that there was not a ...

Ahoy Troy!
Hi Troy,

Re: Plastic coffee cans
Steve,
Great idea! I'll have to scout around the complex for other coffee drinkers - give me a chance to meet some more neighbors! (We just moved again, 2nd time in 7 months...)
Can't wait to get a slip here in Biloxi and have KAYLA close by again!

First... give it a try!
Hi Gary, Before getting too worried about the 4 degree error, I suggest you give it a go as it is. If it does not track properly on both tacks, then I'd consider moving the pin on the tiller. The prior hole could filled with a small piece of teak and smoothed out. Plus I suspect that pin is easier t...
