- Replies: 5
- Views: 14437
If you're a good woodworker a boom can be made from wood with an aluminum bolt rope embedded. I run a Poplar boom on my DN60 iceboat and it has held up well. The LS13 end-boom sheeting is almost the same as the DN and I'll run the DN block to block at 45 mph without a fail in racing service. I have ...

Great boat. Lots of parts available and active racing fleets are fairly common! Also, many parts are common to the Buccaneer so for some parts hunting, look there as well. Chrysler mutts by me are listing between 700 and 1000 so at 400 bucks you got a deal! For a transcribed manual go to http://chry...

Many of these, my C-26 included, are a simple threaded rod that threads into a plug inside each spreader tube. The fix is really easy, simply replace the broken threaded rod but watch for a compression sleeve inside the mast. The sleeve won't come out with the post but since it's a floating fit it c...

So, how heavy is the mast on a C22? My sailing buddy John and I have stepped / unstepped masts on a Catalina 22, O'day 22 and a McGregor 22, all similar vintage boats, with just human power. 3 people, no mechanical gear should be more than enough to unstep a mast, no? On a C-26 you need the gin pole...

The buccaneer world is a little spread out Look at www.buccaneer18.org for a jump off point. Set yourself up with a Facebook account and get to the Buccaneer classifieds for used parts. Also get set up with the Mutineer group as the boats share lots of parts. Yahoo groups is where some boat-specific...

I made a long pole and it works well. For the pin I had the pole hole drilled out to take a deep well socket. That way when I lose track of the pin I can get a fast replacement at the hardware store tool display. For cranking up the mast, I'm using a 4:1 block set but want to put in a brake winch, s...

I've been caught I the snow with my '26 twice now. You don't want to be there. I use a Dodge 1/2 tonner and don't have trouble in the summer moving or braking. In the snow it won't stop, and won't turn. The weight on the hitch makes the front just light enough that the front brakes lock up right awa...

Top vs bottom repairs. OK going in from the bottom is the preferred way for resale reasons, it's next to impossible to match the non skid unless you have a plan to put something like treadmaster down the entire side deck. With the damage shown, this might be a good option. Remember to keep the deck ...

I trimmed mine about that much about 10 years ago. Didn't seem to make much difference in handling. I also added a fulton motor mount to move the engine back as well. This was needed since the engine, in drive, will push into the rudder where it will pass by the rudder when in neutral. A long way to...

For fun use bigbluesaw.com. They will laserjet or waterjet cut parts to your design. Use their online designer or use your own CAD to upload a drawing, spec your materials and pay for it. Two weeks later your parts are fedexed to you all done. I've made some aluminum parts using the service and they...

My first boat was an oday 22 shoal draft. It's a great boat! Too bad frost and a wet core did mine in. Anyway, you'll run circles around the Catalina 22's because the shoal keel won't pick up weeds like it's swing keel cousins! The cabin is also a lot more useful without the keel trunk. You totally ...
