I have several questions for the list.
I inspected the mastead sheves on my mast
and one is very worn and knicked up. Is there a source for these? I checked
with West Marine in Spokane, but they don't have them. Any help would be
appreciated.
Mainsail slugs. My mainsail does not have
slugs. The luff of my sail slides directly into the track in my mast. I
believe I have the original mainsail on my boat. I'm soliciting for comments
on this system. Is there a compelling reason I want to use slugs?
According to my copy of Chapman Piloting
Seamanship and Small Boat Handleing, a sailing vessel under 12m does not
require a light on the masthead. My boat has a 360degree masthead light
and a forwared facing light about 1/2 way up the mast. I'm replacing the
bulbs in each. I'm just womdering about the requirments.
Cheers!
