Great thought Loren on breaking out the aft section into 3 boards - hadn't thought of that. Will look into it. Very curious on steadying that aft corner - I will shoot you a PM. For the Starboard, I used double stick tape to hold them in temporarily with the old floorboards. This will allow us...

Routed Edge on the O34 Floorboards Alrighty, we have made new wood risers of out king starboard and have tacked them down to make a nice new flat surface for our new boards. Got the new boards all cut out with a tracer bit. We are trying to replicate the rounded edge that matches the...

We have the Ballenger Spar and the setup sounds similar to your 911 Andy. Looking at G10 strips on McMaster Carr at reasonable prices so we may go that route, and do some simple attachment as these dont seem structural. Our's also seem 1/4" in comparison to the 1/2" needed to replace the wood...

Wood Riser Replacement under Mast Step Re-visiting this thread as we are in process of doing new floors as well - and this seemed like the right forum to add to. One question in reference to Loren's note on the floor risers"The wood risers on that one hat do show a tiny bit of cracking along...

Last night we tackled the transducer problem with a plan. Plan1) See if the old transducer would hook directly into the STK1 - STNG box and convert data right into our NMEA backbone. Plan 2) Utilize the old Raymarine ST60 display as a "translater box" if needbe. It didn't take us long to get...

Thanks for the great feedback here - Makes sense on the singular backbone approach to simplify the conversion to and back. Unfortunately the speed sensor is right in the middle of the loop, with one end going to the electronics cabinet and the other end going through the headliner (nasty thing...

Correct - going to use the original Airmar unmarked speed wheel unit that is in there now and hook it up into that converter (SeaTalk1 to Seatalkng Converter Kit E22158). Little info is available online, but my assumption is since the old instruments were all SeaTalk1, and the speed unit hooked...

Thank you all for the feedback here. Sadly we just hauled out about 6 months ago, and after a few miscalculated zero's on the bill to the yard we aren't in a place where hauling out in the near future will make too much sense. To get speed data for our new system for valuable racing data, we...

Finally started this project, updating all old Raymarine ST60 Seatalk network to a B&G NMEA network. Our masthead wind instrument broke, the old system had some sketchy wiring, and it was time. I purchased the Triton 2 Speed/Depth/Wind Pack wired that comes with DST810 Speed Transducer as well...

So we purchased this boat back in January, sailed her down the coast to San Diego, and have been working to get her into full racing condition. The list of projects is long.... Hull was covered in blisters and we did a full repair ourselves (never again!). We attacked the hull stripes, topsides...
