1974 E 35 Mk 11 Sorry to see it go. SOLD cant figure out how to delete this sorry? Ok guys after a 3 year refit and countless hours and money spent I am selling my Hot Tamale. I love this boat and only reason I am selling is because I got a fantastic deal on a 1989 Catalina 42. I could fill a...

Hot Tamale Wilmington CA. Cant figure out how to flip this. Sorry

E 35 in Wilmington for sale " SOLD" It seems like the owner has done all of the expensive work already on this one. Just saw it on Craig's CA Not sure about condition but I know first hand the things that are said to be completed on this boat cost a lot more than asking price...

High quality Hat Hat is very high quality and ordering is very easy with PayPal available. Sure would like a couple of E 35 Mk 2 tee shirt if they might become available? A few things on web site were out of stock? This is a good thing when you make the items a not so good a thing when your...

Thanks for another great idea. I think I am going to tap a zerk into the tube epoxy around it and see if that works. Going to place a few large trash cans full of water on the bow of the boat to see if I can lift the stern up enough to not have water coming in while drilling and tapping. T

Great Idea. My boat is 240 miles from me so I drive about 5 miles to the home depot every time I need something while i'm on the boat. Seems like about one trip every two or three hours to Home Depot for most projects. I think I have more tools and parts on my boat and dock box now than in my...

Thanks Kevin That sounds like one of the best ideas I have heard so far. I hate to ask you but is there anyway you could take a picture of where you put your zerk? My 35 2 is a 74 when I drilled the small hole it didnt seem to go in very far before water was coming out. I did hit the shaft with...

Will be traveling down to boat this weekend to try the water filled trash cans on the bow. I hope this will get the rudder up far enough to not have to work with water coming into the hole. Thanks for all of your help and thoughts. T

Christian is there a chance that this will be on audible anytime in the future.

in water rudder tube zerk Christian I'm pretty sure the top of the rudder tube is above the water line, when I replace the packing water was not coming in. I do know that when I drilled the small hole 3 inches below the gland water was coming in.

Rudder Tube Zerk Great idea but I'm not sure if I could afford enough beer and cocktails for that many of my friends to stand on the bow for an hour.?

Has anyone installed a zerk into their rudder tube on an E 35 mk 2 while the boat is still in the water. I have talked with Christian and Ignacio about this procedure and Christian said he did it on a E 38 or his 32 which is a different animal and Ignacio did his 35 on the hard. I drilled a...

HIN Numbers I have a 1974 35 Mk 2 I looked high and low for my numbers without finding anything. One day I was washing the boat and low and behold there were the numbers at the bottom of the transom right in the center. I was very happy to find them because after purchasing the boat there were...
