Hi Gang, In my latest issue of "MESSING ABOUT IN BOATS" - a great magazine if you don't know it, - I found an ad that might be of interest to somebody on the List. The ad reads: '06 HONDA OB, 2 HP, 4-stroke long shaft. Vy light 28 lbs. Mint condition. 10 hours. $750 DAVID NALLETT, Keene NH (603) 355-1194 eves. dnallett@gmail.com ------------------------------------------- Messing About In Boats 29 Burley St. Wenham, MA 01984-1043 US Subscription price $32.00 / year ---------------------------------------------------- Connie "John R.

To stop jamming in the track, I spray the slugs with a good lube most every time I sail. And my very simple solution to keep them from falling out: run a long cotter key at the lowest point you want them down. (I have fed a few stops to Davy Jones, too.) Holes further up allows me to stop the boom and furled sail higher for standing under the boom when cruising along with my built-in electric drive in a calm, or going slowly into a new cove. No, my e-mail address is not salacious, it just refers to my last sailboat, "The Old Cat."
