spring

I have not posted here for a while so I thought I better add some of my new "lessons learned" to the knowledge pool here before I forget them. As per some of my previous ramblings here, I purchased my 1990 E28 "Aquavit" last spring. My first season with it highlighted a few areas that need to...

We are headed to DeSoto Point to meet up with some Sail Monsters for a raft up on April 24th and 25th! Love to have some E-boats join us! :egrin: Mike & Cheri

We had the first race of our Spring series on Saturday; temp was 49, wind was gusting to about 25. Rhynie held her own with a second in fleet(9) and first in class(4). Turnout was low as we were up against the Superbowl and the loyalties of the Who Dat Nation.

We would love to get some E-boats together for a raft up! We are here in Sarasota. Would come north to St. Pete or the Bradenton River. Any Vikings out there who would like to come? :egrin: Mike and Cheri

I am interested in knowing what others have done regarding the attachment of the spring line to your boats. I have the E32-3 with a track on the outside rails. It would seem logical to attach the spring line to that track. I have seen a track car with a cleat mounted on it although it...

so...spring is here and the progress is slow but sure on the e23 bottom...i have done some filling, setting...and i am finally ready for some painting.... :egrin:

This long winter has certainly bested me lately. I've had a monster project at work that has taken up a lot of my time. I've taken on a winter construction project here at home, and it never seems to end. The weather (here north of Chicago) has waivered between really COLD to really snowy. No...

Hello out there to our fellow land locked sailors! It seems like it has been a long winter. But the sun is shinning and the temps are crawling up a bit even though we did get about 1 inch of snow last night in the North of Spokane WA area. But the forecast is a high of 70 F in a few days and...

Hello everyone. Thought you might be interested in a trip I attempted with my 1987 E-34 up CA coast from San Diego to San Francisco a couple of weeks ago. No problems in socal and Catalina was great! Had a sailing buddy lined up to meet me in Santa Barbara to head north to SF. On the day we were...

A number of the shackles and hooks on La Petite have failing or missing springs. Where does one get replacement springs ? I've had to buy complete pin-spring-ring rebuild kits for the snap shackle and pelican hook that I've fixed so far, even though all that was needed was a spring. At $16 or...

We are planning a trip North from Antigua begining in February 2002. We will head north from Antigua to Montserrat Nevis, St Kitts, Saba, St Barts, St Martin, BVI, USVI, Dominican Repulic, Puerto Rico, The Bahamas, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas. We plan to spend a least a couple of...

"It's frickin freezing, Mister Bigglesworth." - Dr. Evil It was warmer for winterization than it has been for spring commissioning. I really hope that this weekend's forecast of three partly cloudy (I like to think 'Partly Sunny') days in the 60's will give me time to finish everything up...
