Re: New Genoa confusion

It is stiff. Or very stiff. I reached out Michael from thesailwarehouse.com and he assured that it is normal and that after few times furling / unfurling the sail it will become more flexible. I did not had a chance to try it yet. I will be on the boat next weekend and will try the sail and take pho...

Re: Mac 26D - Dinghy on foredeck?

For last 10 years I use older model of Saturn kayak on my 26M and love it. It is similar to this one https://www.saturnboats.com/inflatable-kayaks/13-fishing-kayak/13-saturn-fishing-kayak-en.html. My one used to have 4 skegs by now 2 left. The only time I deflate it is for winter storage. When we ar...

Re: socket size for bf50 prop nut

My boat is far away in the middle of nowhere so I could not take a chance and have to make sure I have all necessary tools with me

Re: socket size for bf50 prop nut

Thank you Dave for the reply. Do you mean the nut was so loose you were able to unscrew it by fingers?

Re: A New Journey Begins for OverEasy

There are rubber O-rings on quick disconnects. I would check them first. They are cheap, easy to replace and they were the source of similar issue on my boat

Re: Honda BF50 "kicking" in reverse

Heard back from shop. Apparently there's a threaded retainer ring they need to take off before they can get at the lower section. It's seized and it broke their tool. (I won't know more until I show up to examine it.) So they can't do anything. I've either got to live with it, or replace the whole ...

M26 steel trailer parts (Disk break hub/rotor)

Hi all,

I have to change disk break hubs/rotors on my 2003-M26 trailer (old are rusted out). I am not sure about proper part. Is this one correct?
