Re: WTB CD Spreader Light/Steaming Light Assembly

The deck light part is what I'm interested in. I'd happily take it off your hands. Name your price?

Stripping Cetol from toe rail

Any tips on the best approach to stripping Cetol from my teak, especially toe rails on my CD 25? They've been sanded so much by POs that I don't want to strip them by sanding any more - loosing too much material. Anybody got a good chemical stripper to suggest or how about a torch-stripper? Suggesti...

What's up with Spartan Marine?

Anybody know if Spartan Marine is still around? I've been trying for weeks to place an order and keep getting voice mail which isn't returned. Their email isn't working either.

How to use mast-stepping hoist?

I've always stepped and unstepped my mast with a boom and block/tackle system I built into my trailer, but this time I want to use the marina's self service mast hoist. My system is just too freightening to my wife/helper. The marina's hoist is a tall pole with a boom at the top and a cable operated...

trailering a 25

I've towed my 25 up over the Continental Divide [Berthaud Pass Colorado] several times with a F-150...no sweat...a little slow going up but plenty fast coming down. [Trailer brakes are good insurance.]

Your 25 is not a '78. I have a '77 with hull number 569. Also, the bridge deck and ports are from an earlier vintage than '78....perhaps '74 or '75?

Leaking scupper thru hull - what sealant?

Upon launch a week ago I discovered that one of my cockpit scupper thru hulls is leaking and that the sealant between the hull and the thru hull failed (the thru hull has rotated slightly). The leak is manageable in the short term but I'm going to have to haul the boat next week to fix it. I don't w...

Anybody know where I can get ahold of a couple feet of straight bulkhead moulding like that used in my 77' 25? Anybody got any salvagable old pieces? Thanks
