Yeah, that's a good reference. The used ones are $180 but I wonder if buying a new depth sounder from Hawkeye would be better? They come with a sensor too at a little bit less cost. I don't know that much about quality/accuracy of signet and just wonder if they are worth the cost or if getting somet...

Signet Instruments
As I'm restoring my C26 I've been thinking for a while about what to do with my existing instruments. Do I replace them or repair them? I have a knot meter and depth meter installed but are a bit old and the display seems to be gone. I've done some research and have found that these instruments are ...

Also on the subject of electricity, do you know if Chrysler grounded their masts in case of a thunderstorm? I have a '72 MacGregor Venture that's grounded from the mast and forestay to a copper plate on the underside of the hull. But I can't see where it is grounded on this boat. I've heard some the...

Battery for C26
Does anyone have a good idea as what battery I should get for my C26? I have been back and forth with looking at AGM batteries and Deep cycle batteries. I have experience with deep cycle batteries and never had any problems with spillage or having to refill them. But a friend of mine recommended AGM...

There was a mention about flushing out your drum brakes after them being submerged in salt water. Do you exclusively go to marinas that have a flushing station or running water? I have never seen that or I have never noticed it before. I may be using a spot that is only a public boat ramp and am won...

Ok that's great to know and really helps me out a lot thanks! My next question is do I replace the whole drum assembly and drums themselves? I've looked at them and it comes with new bearings too. OR do I just replace the brake assembly itself and not the drums? These brakes have never been replaced...

Where to find electric marine grade trailer brakes?
Hi, I found my C26 1 1/2 years ago and am still in the process of restoring her. She's a 78 with the original trailer that is a breeze to launch with its 48 rollers, if my math is right. I am trying to find good marine grade electric drums for it but seem to be getting nowhere. It is a heavy boat an...

C26 Boom wanted/roller furler 135%genoa
I'm looking for a boom for a '78 C26 as soon as possible. We got the mast up without using it but will need it to get it down. Not doing it again without the proper stuff! If you have the mast raising cables for port and starboard, that would help. But we bought this fixer upper with many things mis...
