Why you attached fishfinder ? As I can see you have already Lorance including all these functions........

[beene]

His massive Plotter does not include a fishfinder or transducer, so he had to get that separately.

I swear, sitting in front of his ped, I feel like the capt of the Enterprise.......

Impressive!

A question, and it is informational only. I'm not trying to start anything, just learn. In the 'winch cleats raised' pic, in the background is a car on the Genoa track. I was told that car was for the jib tract. Was I told incorrectly? Am I using the wrong car there?

Thanks

Ken

[beene]

No

You are correct. The cars are better suited for the cabin top and jib sheets.

The Genny or spin uses blocks on those aft tracks that pivot on springs allowing for the block to turn horizontal for the sheets to run evenly up to the winches.

Just an update

Heres how to make a screened bilge vent
http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab1/ ... 010001.jpg
three pieces the vent , cut a round piece of screening and a piece of plastic bottle that fits the inner dia. of the vent
http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab1/ ... 010003.jpg
and put them together you now have a sreened bilge vent no bee hives or spiders nests to worry about
http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab1/ ... 010004.jpg

the head vent open
http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab1/ ... 010009.jpg
closed
http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab1/ ... 010010.jpg

their is another one of these vents inside the bilge area at the v-berth infront of the ballast vent basin so I can vent out the bilge area or the head either one at a time or both together ! with the blower motor which is already mounted in the port stern

new radio & rear speakers installed they can be turned into the cabin or out into the cockpit

Highlander, when you push the correct button does a cocktail bar appear from hiding, romantic music start and the lighting dim in a James Bond/Matt Helm fashion?

Glenn............ how did you know?

Somebody has been spying on you J

[The Mutt]

I still can't work out where to put the ejection seat, too far forward could leave a stain on the boat with the boom acting as a base ball bat ..... I know, an trap door in the cockpit to the shark tank.

I really need a holiday!!!

Can you tell?

Glenn

[Highlander]

Glen

Just watch what button you push !!! because they can be missleading
would'nt want to see you become a shooting Star !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know, an trap door in the cockpit to the shark tank.

Can the sharks have "laser beams" attached to their heads?

Shooting star? ... Starting to sound like something from the space program, or a Hollywood Blonde! .... OH I get it, you have a floating Hollwood casting couch, push the button for the Cocktail cabinet, lighting and music, you sly dog! Keep that camcorder ready.
