    CL 14 center board

    Can anyone help me find a centerboard for a CL14? Perhaps someone has an idea what are its dimensions so that it can be made?

    Centerboard lifting mechanism broke. Thoughts on leaving centerboard down full time?

    The boat is a 1969 Morgan 22 with a retractable centerboard. Towards the end of the season, when trying to leave the dock, I ran aground with the centerboard down. Foolishly, I tried to raise it using the lifting mechanism. It was a soft grounding and the boat was still able to move forward a...

    O'day Daysailer II CB Cable Setup

    Hi all! I just got a Daysailer 2 last fall! Over the course of this year so far, I have finished completely re-rigging it and have replaced / added all the necessary hardware. The last thing to fix, is the centerboard; there's no cable to pull it up, although it has the one to swing it down...

    Careening Boat/centerboard repair

    Hello all, I'll be tipping my boat in my backyard today so I can work on the center board. Any advice? Mast on or off? What kind of safety measures have you used? Maybe you have another suggestion on securing the boat so I can work on the centerboard beneath the boat.

    Stuck Centerboard on a Widgeon

    Hello all! I bought a widgeon this spring, and have used it several times. The centerboard gets jammed in the case if it is pulled up all the way. The only way to get it back down, is to try and stomp on the handle several times, to dislodge it and drop it again. How do I fix this problem...

    Replace 222 centerboard line in water without being able to access other line from inside cockpit

    Through a series of unfortunate events and copious amounts of stupid, the knot on the end of my centerboard line went through a period of non-existence. Today I let the line out, not thinking about the absent knot and it ran all out through the centerboard line hole. It was running free under...

    H260 Centerboard Lift Line/ Rigging

    I recently replaced the lift line to the centerboard. I found the most difficult part of the whole process was getting the knot hidden into the recess within the centerboard. (A mallet and large punch sorted that out) On deck I am not 100% sure how the rigging is completed. In fact, I am yet to...

    H23.5 Centerboard Pin Bearing Replacement

    Took my Centerboard off to replace the uphaul line and noticed the pin bearing was quite worn. See pics. Even the hole in the fiberglass is enlarged over 1" (factory dimension) by like an 1/8". I'm thinking of replacing the plastic bearing with a bronze bearing on each side of the centerboard...

    Hunter 260 Centerboard

    I am looking for a boat repair shop in the Lantana Florida area that will replace my Hunter 260 centerboard. The steel Centerboard pivot pin failed and the centerboard was lost, which caused the vessel to loose stability and capsize while at its mooring.

    2006 Hunter 146 Centerboard Repair

    I just bought a 2006 Hunter 146 that is in very good condition. To my dismay, the cleat holding the centerboard up was not as robust as I expected, and the centerboard came down sometime during an 80 mile trailering, mostly asphalt. The result is that it appears that someone took a belt sander...

    Is this a D or S?

    Looking at a boat for sale locally tomorrow. The owners wife said she doesn't know if this is a D or S, but looking at the inside, the sink is on the left side, and there does not appear to be a rope next to the door under it, does that mean this is a D?

    H23.5 Centerboard parts

    I'm preparing to refit my centerboard as the pins and roller are worn and the spacers are cracked. The Centerboard moves side to side when up, is hard to pull up (need to use the winch) and it appears to want to come up sideways. Anyway, listing in the store is a Centerboard Bushing, Delrin...
