Bingo!

Nice work!

use a pressure washer with baking soda (buy in big bags at the feed store) and use a respirator and goggles.

I will send you my best bearing to use as a pattern for the C 26 bearing if you want. Would this help? I would like to purchase one of the finished product and have my original back to reinstall.

Thanks.

What they said...

My least worn bushing measures approx. 3" dia. and 1 & 3/4" high. So it looks like the machine makes a large enough part.

Congrats to you and the parents. And look at that hair! Must have been a 10 month gestation.

Big improvement! Looks great.

Bingo! Options count. My 2500HD has a 3.73:1( I think) axle ratio and therefore the towing capacity is about 9500 lbs. the same vehicle with a 4.10:1 axle has a higher (12,000 lbs ?) towing capacity. And look for a factory towing or snowplow option for the wiring harness, extra coolers, etc. I may b...

We are thankful for every day on the water ( and off). :lol: Being of Native American blood I don't have much use for Thanksgiving Day celebrations. :cry: But it is the holiday most of our family has been able to get home for visits. So if I can't be sailing, I just eat the food and watch football. ...

My guess would be Washington State and Texas.

a sail bag in the truck gave me a license

ROFLMAO... With us it was lust at first sight. Me lusting for the Flower Child and she lusting for the Columbia 22. And it has been a downwind run for more years than we want to admit.

Like it.

Ditto on the rudder bearings!

Bummer! Had same thing happen a few years ago. But it was a Sugar Maple and made great firewood.

A sailboat will make a man poor. Some men are so poor they have
several sailboats.

Shirts arrived Great job!

Thanks.

Got a great rudder from IDASALOR.COM in Boise Idaho. Did it all via internet and they did answer the phone when I had a question after rudder arrived. The were very helpful. The rudder is IMO an improvement on the OEM design. Have fun with your 'new' boat.

Glad you are back at work and back on the forum.

Had to blow up that master list to read it.

Found my order and mailed check.

Thanks.

A fun read...keep 'em coming

Don't have any answers on the rivet question. But, I do want to ask what paint will you be using on the mast?

Nzhub New Zealand is not just around the block... it would be nice to know just how one of our beloved Chryslers made it that far. Welcome to the forum photos of your prize and where you sail are always welcomed. Terrence Wilmington N.C. Chrysler 26' 1980 Pandora (for now) :?: How did that C 22 get...

Have seen an air leak in fuel cause that problem with a two-cycle outboard. Intermittent rough running that had us change spark plugs and try different shaft angles to stop what we thought was prop cavatation. After finding a small split in the plastic fitting at the fuel tank the problem was solved...

Great idea. I like the 'no clean-up detail' part best

Good info. Very important to 'always have a plan'
