I only use the 155 for racing. And, it's too much sail when wind exceeds 15kts. Makes the boat go fast. Competitors hate it! Bought a furlable tri-radial dacron 135 which we use to horse around and down-shift to. Had luff foam added for better shape when furled. Wouldn't recommend luff...

155 carbon. Inside track as close as she'll go (35AWA, maybe a little less). Outside track 40+ from now on. Only took me 10 years to figure that out!

Also, please put in envelope and send USPS snail mail. We're not racing for a few weeks. And, let me know where to send check for shipping and handling!

That's it! Jim Morgan 171 Grandview Street Encinitas, CA 92024 BTW. Raced from Oceanside to San Diego on Sunday (35 miles). Started at 10, built to mid 12's pretty much all day, topped at 16.25 kts (fortunately just for a short while). ~40-50 AWA. Perfect day for a 35Mk3. I learned...

Two screws and it’s off. Could use the screws as spares. Photo of mine attached. Thanks!

One of the "C pins" that holds the clamshell feeder on my furling system has broken off and I don't have the knowledge or equipment to extract the broken section to replace. The feeder measures approximately 4 9/16" in length and has 2 screws. Both of the feeder pieces have "3P" cast into...

So, looks like I need a new stove and a whole lot of other stuff. I would house the propane tank(s?) in the vented wells on the stern. I hope that reduces the installation complexity. Can you send a schematic (cartoon is okay) of your installation so I can order parts and copy your work...

Have '86 E35-3 with CNG system and want to convert to propane. I've heard the stove can be modified (re-jetted?). If so, where can parts be obtained? Then, put adapter on existing CNG hose and run extension to stern propane tank wells? Is solenoid shut-off required at tank?

Rudder delamination discovered when cleaning bottom a few weeks ago. Had hauled and repaired - Kevlar now on entire leading edge. Damaged area is directly behind prop and only on starboard side. I'm guessing a small void in the mold parting line at the leading edge allowed water entry from...

anybody know headsail dimensions (max luff, I, J, luff tape) for 35 mk3? Want hanked on and searching inventory of used sails after blowing up old 135 off Dana Point last Saturday. Thanks!

installed two blade Martec folding prop (15/10) in February and have been trying to come to grips with increased vibration - at all rpm's. removed the prop and returned to Martec who checked balance and then reinstalled. vibration seemed to reduce...but that coulda been wishful thinking. boat...

Rendevous Schedule permitting, I'd be interested. What are you thinking...Avalon? Jim Morgan Green Flash E35Mk3 / Oceanside

Jeff, Was just visiting site to ask for SoCal teak work suggestion and stumbled upon your post. You must be clairvoyant! I purchased a 35 Mk3 6 months ago that was maintenance neglected for 10 or 15 years. Am just getting to the damaged woodwork in the interior. Bilge inspection panels are...

Bought boat 6+ months ago and prohibited head usage until system was checked out. Did so last weekend and discovered holding tank had leak. Removed tank and found crack that previous owner unsuccessfully tried to repair with thin layer of silicone. Repair seems unlikely but would consider if...

Thanks! Thanks for leads to furler info...
