    atomic 4 parts

    Hi Anyone know of a list of compatable parts for the A-4. Specificly looking for an exhaust flange gasket. I know Moyer Marine will sell me one for $3.00 but then the shipping cost is $12.00. I feel there must be a part out in the auto parts world that will fit and I can run down to...

    Ericson 35-II genoa size

    Anyone know the dimensions of a 150 genoa for an E35-II. The luff is easy enough...mine is 41' 6" for my furler, but I am not sure what I should be looking for in the leach length or the foot. I want a deck sweeper (or as close to it as I can) for the light NW summer winds and for a little...

    Cleaning up a filthy engine...

    This may sound crazy but try a 2 litre bottle of pepsi... soak the area for a while using soaked rags etc and watch the grease and rust disolve. Flush with fresh water dry it and paint it.

    Wheel wrap

    Hi all I don't know if I am posting this in the right place or not but here goes. I have an E-35 Mk II with a 40" wheel. Here in southwest British Columbia it gets very cold on the hands during our Fall Winter and Spring racing seasons. My question is this...there are lots of web sites...

    exhaust system E-35-II

    E-35 II Exhaust Thanks Howard. I just ordered the same riser online yesterday! I am glad to see someone else has used the same solution with good results. I assume that since the cooling water is introduced into the system early there is no problem with the heat burning the bottom of the...

    exhaust system E-35-II

    Hi all Has anyone got a picture they can post of the hot section of and E-35-II...the one with the engine located under the setee in the centre of the salon? The elbow on my set up comes up so close to the botom of the seat that the heat is burning the wood. I have to run with the cover...

    companionway hatch cover

    :egrin: Is there anyone out there can give me some advice on replacing the sliding companionway cover on my 1972 E-35 II? The original has been neglected by the PO and is in such a state that it cannot be brought back. I will probably have to have a new one made (at great expense) but I...

    Extra stanchion on E35

    Gareth I have a picture of my gates (E-35 II 244) but I can't figure out how to attach it to this message. If you send your E-mail address I will send it to you. Mine looks like the factory installation so I wonder if some P.O. modified yours at some time. Cheers Pat

    Mast Raising(Not dialup friendly)

    I had the same trouble when we unstepped the mast on my E-29. The drain hole at the base of the mast had become clogged with debris and the mast was partly filled with rain water. If you have the crane operator rock back and forth and side to side before lifting it should break loose OK. Good...

    Fuel tank

    Gareth The tank I bought was of a size that would fit through the door behind the steps when tipped on its side, then just rotated flat. Check the Tempo web site or one of the dealers' and you will see the one I used. The only hard part was getting the old tank out. I ended up cutting it...
