HELLO ALL! JUST PURCHASED A Robinson & Caine 1999 LEOPARD 38 IT HAS ITS ORIGINAL COCKPIT CUSHIONS anyone have leads on reasonably priced replacements?? Have to sail up May 1st from North Carolina to New Haven CT excited!!!

Discovered this weekend that one of my cockpit drains froze and split last weekend during the big snow here in Portland. Looking for advice how to repair or replace what is installed. It looks like the original fittings from 1984. Or maybe someone here on the forum knows of the source for the...

I'm a new owner and wd appreciate any advice incl photos for cockpit speakers and placement? Thank you. Dave Miller, Lake Travis, TX

Just bought a P-23 and really enjoying it (first sailboat). I'd like to re-route the lines to the cockpit. 1) has this been done? 2) how difficult is it? 3) cost? 4) pictures of how its worked on other boats? Thanks.

I am a new owner of an old boat--1976 O'Day 25. The good news is that the centerboard was replaced shortly before I bought her. The bad? The plastic trim around the exit point for the centerboard pennant is broken and the line is sawing a hole in the fiberglass. Any ideas on what I can use as a...

I just bought a 1985 Hunter 23 in Florida. I recently graduated from school so cash is a little tight and I found what I thought was a real gem for $1,800. The deck has no perceptible flex, bilge was dry, standing rigging looked decent, etc. I've sailed the boat hard 3 weekends in a row and had...

Hi there! As a frequent single-hander, I am constantly trying to figure out a way to run my mainsheet to the cockpit. I have the Edson wheel replacement and the self-tailing jib winches are easily accessible from it. The mainsheet and main halyard are both run to the starboard cabin top winch...

It just occurred to me that a nice aftermarket part for the C30 Mk1 would be an aft lazarette door with a raised seat for the helmsman. It would add extra space in the lazarette while providing a seat. I assume nothing like this is out there, but what is everyone else doing for a helmsman seat? -P

I have leaking scuppers on my 28.5. Has anyone one ever changed the scupper hoses (cockpit drain hoses) on a hunter 28.5? Just how did you access the hose fittings? Did you install deck-plates in the rear wall? Jeff
