E27 Table - thanks Hi Mark, That table looks great!! Thanks for the ideas. I am going to try to do something as nice on my E27 table. The dual use as a bed is even nicer. Probably the only way I (6'8") can actually sleep on the boat short of being in the cave. Stuart

Hi Roscoe, thanks. Nice to see other's great ideas here too. Counter space is ever so more precious now that I added the stove. As you thought, I was determined to install the Origo gimballed stove on my boat. After cooking at sea a couple of nights, I was very glad that I had installed the...

Great job Hi Sven, Ah those look really nice. Great job.:egrin:

Lewmar portlight for E27 Hi, apologies for not getting back sooner. Standard portlight Lewmar 4R LW393442500 4L LW393122500 I ordered ivory color plastic trim for inside but think white would look even better. Outside is as-pictured I had to slightly increase hole size but it was...

Increased Moorage fees Well, my anchors are really starting to sparkle now and as a result rowing into the dock will be a little more difficult and I just may not visit the Restaurant... as much while there. Econ 1 at its finest. Surprised that the Fees for hauling millions of passengers...

E27 in high winds Just some thoughts and different experience to share. In 2009 our E27 was outfitted with a triple reefed main, a 130 Genoa, a 80% working jib and a 45 sq ft storm jib. NEw running/standing rigging... The goal was to have sails sufficient to handle most weather one would...

After 33 years, Stargazer, an E27, returns to California and touches the Pacific for the first time.

E27 Gooseneck I thought I would follow-up with a Gooseneck solution that I came up with in a week. I ended up purchasing a 1/2" dia K-1685-1A tack, K10518N toggle and KCP4-61 Clevis pin, parts from Rigrite for $372. Then I had a custom fitting fabricated by Railmakers that contained a 1/2dia ss...
