Re: Hole in the keel

Let me pass on an experience I have had after having my boat blocked up. The two blocks used were about 10" square, maybe 12". There is a gravel base at the boat yard where the blocks are used. There were numerous rocks embedded in the wooden blocks from the weight of various boats which h...

Re: CD 28 Salvaged Gear after Hurricane Sandy

Just acquired a CD 28 and need a few items - what on your list do you currently still have? Do you have the cockpit locker tops? thanks

CD 25D sails

Dick - Yes I am interested. The time constraint is not a problem as boat is getting buffed, new bottom paint, and teak redone. Let me know when you get time to get to them. I'll send an email so you have mine. Thanks

CD 26D/25D Sails

I just purchased a 1988 CD-26D but the past owner is having trouble locating the sails. I understand that sails from a 25D will also fit as both boats use the same mast/boom. Does anyone have an extra Main and/or furling headsail for a CD-26D or 25D they would sell? Main has a luff of 27.2" wit...

John, I just noted your April fool's day posting and thought I would weigh in (which is different that way in, or weigh end). You, knowing or unknowingly, may be on to something, you usually are!!!! Aren't those Oslo Norwegian's the ones who, with thousands of their fellow believers, rioted in the s...

BP Oill Spill

Funny you should single out Fox News - Hummmmm! I only mentioned the state controlled media! I looked at all 38 pictures posted at the last web site you referenced and there is no oil washing ashore in any of the photos - only lots of folks walking along beaches and some reanchoring of oil booms whi...

BP OIL SPILL

As usual the government owned press is over hyping an issue. The current white house regime has done nothing to help with the spill since day one and only recently "flew over" the area. What has it been - nearly two weeks now!!! To date no oil has reached any shore and it is still several ...

Did listen

I stand by the Southern Cross 31. Is is between 30 and 33 foot - this is really tough. Some cost between $27 and $30K - again, really tough. I will grant the characteristics are somewhat different - the SC 31 greatly exceeds the good sailing characteristics of any Cape Dory - so maybe, just maybe I ...

Recurrent Dreams

John- I recall what T.E. Lawrence had to say about dreams: "All men dream but not equally. They who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it is vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they act their dream with open eyes, to make it p...
