Probably not a good idea to upload a pic of the HIN to the web, no telling where it might wind up being used ! I had a friend who found out his boat reg numbers had been appropriated, and the boat was involved in an accident ! They came looking for him by mistake.. I'll get you the location in relat...

There's a wrap up article here;
http://www.al.com/news/mobile/index.ssf ... _daup.html
It mentions a Catalina 22, and I've heard (or read) that a Cal25 was lost, but can't verify it..

Re: C26 spreader post specs. snapped off a spreader today.
It appears that the spreaders are pinned to a post that goes through the mast. Took a pic of EE's spreader socket, looks like that single bolt is what holds both spreaders to the mast ? Clickable thumbnail : http://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss355/svemergencyexit/th_spreader_zpsjsnstpwe.jpg

Re: C26 spreader post specs. snapped off a spreader today.
Thinking a tall ladder would not be stable after loosening the shrouds. If the spreader broke and the center shroud came loose, you might want to pull a cleated halyard off to that side and tie it off to something like a cleat or the toe rail anyway...I've used a tall ladder to retrieve a halyard t...

Assuming the C26 and C22 are similar, under the actual plate is a piece of wood for the plate the screw into, and some glass too..seems this area on the boats are always cracked on the surface but if the cracks allowed water to get in there, the wood could be compromised A thread with links to pics ...

Dauphin Island Regatta Disaster
For those who may not have heard about it, during the annual DI run on Mobile Bay a spring storm hit hard. Mostly happened when the faster boats were returning back up the bay, or slower boats were near the finish. Near hurricane force winds were recorded, boats and lives were lost. There's a lot of...

EE's first tiller was an Adze handle. Kinda like these

beefier than a wheel barrow handle and has a bit of a tiller feel..

Gin Pole System
Getting ready to step the mast on the brand x boat so sharing some pics. Instead of using line to rig the baby stays, etc I went with ratchet straps, and with chain and carabiner clips for the lower attach points. Much easier to tighten on the fly if needed. http://www.svemergencyexit.net/aislingirl...

Welcome aboard ! I've never seen a factory diagram, but the C26 didn't appear to come with much more than a battery feeding a fuse box, the nav lights, 4 cabin lights (stern berth, cabin, head, and vberth). The cabin lights had their own switch so they didn't go thru a power panel, The nav lights on...

Never bought from them myself, but a lot of the Flying Scots at the club used to sport the mast up type from The Sailors Tailor, seemed to be well made from what I saw.

NYC, I think I understand better now. And if I remember right (iffy-er every day...) On the swing keel the area under the banquettes are open to the 'bilge' area under the head and all the way to the area under the ice chest storage. The bulkhead under the vberth is all that stops it from being open...
