Vic prop is right on highway one. Good guy.

Or you could tighten up the retaing bolts to see if the shaft still moves. If the shaft doesn't move fore and aft then put a "4 sale" on it. Get the boat you really want. Or sail it. Your choice...

I see no problem with that, can you expound on that a little bit?

No. Just no.

I am thinking my old Harley Sportster used the same style voltage regulator. You may find a few of those for sale if look in the right places. The permanent magnets in the clutch basket put out 50 volts from the two wire plug, then the regulator took that down to 14 v dc. Just pointing out some options, hope it works out for you

Go the Cone

Worst place for a sailor? The USA. No Bullrails. Fixed it for you lol.

Ghallager, a Peterson 35, is alive and well on Cowichan Bay. We still race around the Gulf Islands from time to time. Great for cruising, we sail with a furling number 2 head sail. The tiller is hands off for the most part. Great boat.

Mr. Sloop, I think the closest thing you are going to find in a modern setting would be the Left Coast Dart. Not sure how far north of 100 K the 5 boats produced are fetching right now. Having looked into Ogopogo from the wrong side of the bull rails, it looks like a comfortable compromise between racing , and being able to sleep aboard at a regatta. They are plenty quick on the water, too. It will be interesting what remains around in the next 2 decades. Hoping it's not all J70s in ten years...

If you have to use a screw clamp look for these

Engine hoses, yes. Bilge lines I might use https://images.app.goo.gl/bzdgVN3RUYtounqdA. Also consider the type of material being clamped. Silicone hoses versus the harder rubber types, in any case the clamp should exert even pressure all the way around the fitting .

Ok, I am currently working for a highway maintenance contractor. Road brine is normally around 24 % salt. The truck has a fair bit of plumbing, the best being held together with tee bolt stainless clamps, but the key is replacement, nothing lasts more than a season. Surprisingly, the spring clamps seem to last the longest. Your results may vary.

What about your boat deck. Did the sheets bleed Color onto your deck?

At the risk of assassination, the spring clamps used in the auto sector are far superior to tha screw clamps. Only 30 years of experience with engines.. Argue all you want, lol
