Jeez, I was hoping for more of an epoxy filling and redrilling situation.

Semi-Hijacking this thread. How about if your toe rail has bent up in an area and the bolts have been pulled out as well.......

I would love that toe rail. Mine is a 1" track for the genoa blocks and a few mid ship cleats.

Soon turns out the thru hull for the head sink drain is a 3/4". I ordered the wrong ones from defender. Would it be so bad to use the 1/2 inch instead of getting a new 3/4"? While we are on it, I took a wrench and did something between a tap and a light banging on the seacock for that thruhull...

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe mine is just below my galley sink. Which is not majorly accessible, but I think ill be able to get in there. I'm a skinny guy so I have high hopes for that helping. Thank you for the info! I was pretty sure they are 1/2inch but wanted extra advice. She is still...

Yes, OCD is a thing. And I particularly like having an many original pieces as I can. I think the rain guard will help cut down a fraction of a percent of intrusion. Probably not and I will end up hating the way it looks. I have to rebed a salon portlight soon, and I am assuming ill crack the...

We certainly have varying designs. I have no hole in my foredeck. The only access to my Pulpit is through the V Berth locker. I do have the aft cockpit locker that makes accessing that area a breeze. The space behind my settees also have access already, and it's very uniform so im guessing it...

Can you provide an example of such a fixture? I'm guessing stanchions, since I haven't attempted to locate their below deck areas yet. I've also wondered how one would access the starboard cockpit cleats and wench bases. I also feel my bow pulpit is a bit shaky, and I'd like to attempt to add...

If you were going to make your own plates out of fiberglass cloth, what sort of household item would you use as a surface? I have a glass table, but its the dining table and I would loose my spouse if I ruined it.

All the other fittings have the Apollo valve. And look far better. If they are the 1/2", ill likely replace the whole set with Marelon fittings. What sealant would you suggest, if I may be redoing them in a year with flanged versions?

I have several, and a rubber mallet ready. Still doesn't give me faith. I should be on the hard in the next two days so that'll be the time to make a plan.

Okay great. These are the smaller valves and fittings in the boat. I am not replacing with flanged yet. We originally planned on picking up a lower priced E32, but the 29 was a smarter step-up. I had a 1980 19ft Cape Dory Typhoon Weekender that I inherited and have memories from learning to sail...

Hi! Just picked up a 1978 E29 on the southern gulf coast of Florida. Seems to be in relatively well cared for condition, excluding a few of the PO's wiring choices. I need to replace the seacock and thru hull for the head sink, and also a seacock for the water intake for the A4. Does anyone...

Morgan, im also a local 941 guy. Just purchased a 1978 E29 from a gentleman out if Saint Pete Beach. Im a bit of a youngster but love glass work. Is that something I could purchase a 2 or 4 piece set of??
