Re: Winter in Slip

Sounds like you have her pretty well cared for.

Only other thing to consider in my book is, if you have ac at the dock and boat, an automatic bilge pump might give some piece of mind!

Regular checks are best though!

FYI I have pulled the starboard plug that you describe on 4 c22's without issue. Please note they were all pulled on the hard. Never in the water. No reason other than it is my way.

They all went back in place reasonably easy.

Good morning! In short, you should have a pair of snatch blocks you can clip to the toe rail of your C22, 1 for each side. You can move them for and aft as necessary per sail size however they are not really meant to be changed under spirited sailing conditions! Run the jib sheet outside of all life...

The controls I used were original Chrysler controls!
Forward, reverse, and throttle for each direction! In the cockpit!

Poke around here! There are folks that do not like them and sell them!
You will have to purchase the parts to adapt the controller to your motor though!

Good idea having the the CG board you. They can give you a report good for a year and if you get boarded again, just provide the report with your papers.

The dink is a 14' Rendova Delux.
50hp, steering station, vhf, depth, tunes, etc.

Fun with toys I tell ya!

FWIW: I was told they run to lean to meet emission standards. Rejetting the carb or even drilling the existing jet slightly larger would fix the issue.

Hi Richard, I know nothing of the C26 and layout however I am familiar with the C22. There is little place in the C22 to successfully rid her of water in tight places.
