Eli, Congratulations on purchasing your very first boat, and welcome aboard the C-Brats website. You are going to have a great time, both with the boat, and joining in on this website! In the interest of being brief, the very first thing you want to do is sign up for a boating course through...

Greg, I emailed an inquiry and reached a representative of the seller who knows very little about the rig. It appears to be an estate sale situation.

The 2008 Honda outboard motor is worth the "asking price"! https://oregoncoast.craigslist.org/boa/6497448058.html

Bob, Sadly the crew-member (John Fisher) was just declared "lost at sea"! The satellite message was received just hours ago here at New Zealand from crew aboard "Scallywag". The extreme remote Southern Ocean location of the boat along with weather conditions prevented any SAR action...

The "Around the World Volvo Ocean Race" fleet just left our port of Auckland heading toward Brazil. Ironically two of the crew went overboard in separate incidents aboard "Scallywag" in gale force winds! The second incident occurred just 18 hours ago and it appears neither crew wore harness or...

Robert H, My email address has not changed since 2006, the year I signed on. Thanks for the suggestion!

Jason, Consider yourself the privileged one, I get absolutely nothing!

Jason, It appears it is no longer done on this website? I have not received any response to subsequent thread posts in over a couple years!

Greg, Welcome to the C-Brats, you will have heaps of fun here, its even addicting! And I share your thoughts about Eisenhower since I was also around during his time in office. You should check the lower right-hand corner of this home page on a weekly if not more often basis for the boat you...

Randy, I have had occasion to install several "Wagner" steering/auto pilot systems in past years. They made some high quality equipment that was commercial grade but were not competitive which caused the business to fail. However there are still parts and complete units available at places...

Locate some "UHMW" about 3/8" thick and shape it to fit the profile of the stainless mount. Pre-drill bolt holes to match the mount and bed using a tube of "Boatlife". UHMW can be found in scrap bins at most of the plastic supply outlets. The material is very resistant to ultra-violet and...

When rigging aluminum sailboat masts most of the attachments are made from materials other than aluminum and they will in time experience "galvanic corrosion". A product that is widely used and very effective in preventing this degradation is "Alumalastic". It is also a non-hardening sealer...

When pounding into head seas, especially when the center portion of the hull is without support of water, the hull tends to "bulge" outward at this point. This causes stress on the "hard spot" where cabin and cockpit meet. You might notice on some similar designs where the cabin/cockpit...
