2015 Events Programme

Forums: 

Hi everyone

It's that time of year again - Christmas is coming and before you know it the AGM will be upon us. So lay down your drills and screwdrivers and gelcoat filler for a moment because now is the time to be thinking about ideas for next year's events programme.

A "2015" section has been created in the Events Forum where you will be able to broadcast ideas and proposals for events in the run up to the AGM.

Trailer Sailer Boat Insurance

Forums: 

As A new owner I have joined the owners Association and was surprised that among the mass of discussion there does not appear to be a preferred Insurance company on board that provides favourable premiums for members or am I being premature? Please if anyone is in the know before I begin the trawl. Also is there now no dealer in the UK with stocks for the Mac? John

Test-drive wanted

Forums: 

I've received the following email from someone interested in buying a Mac 26. Is there anyone in the Solent area who would be able to give him a run on their boat?
I no longer have a 26, I'm now a confirmed 19-er!

Please contact him direct by phone (number below) if you can help.

Thanks, Rick

Center board for 26x

Forums: 

Having damaged my center board this year I need a new one.
I have the old but has a good section missing at the bottom.

Does any one have the dimensions of an original, or drawing?

As a minimum I need the overall length, or length from fulcrum to bottom .

I favor David Hertiage yachts on the Isle of Wight to make the new one as they did a very good job for Richard Greenway earlier this year but they did not keep any dimensions.

Genoa ripped. Need a new one or jib quick.

Forums: 

Currently in Chichester Marina and had a bit of an off with the Genoa on a roller furling. A bit beyond sail tape (think Large rip!!)

Does anyone have a spare or know where I can get one quick (jib or genoa)? I guess this week is blown away but we're planning another week away on the 16th and would love to have one by then.

Any help or advice greatly appreciated.
