S2 7.9 Meter Class Association

Great job on the new website.
There were some initial bugs, but you got them worked out.
Thanks to those volunteers involved.

I know this post is old, but.
On my previous 7.9, I plumbed the sink to drain to the through hull water intake, for the inboard engine. (engine had been removed).
The sink would not drain fully at rest. Perhaps it would at 3 knots.
So I reverted back to grey water holding tank.

Old post, but we all have this issue. I tried an upholstery cleaner this summer, with slow clear results. Wet vacuum type, with occasional scrub brush added for good luck. Work in progress, but it does get results.

I assume you have resolved by now.
If not PM me, and I will measure mine.

My 5 gal water tank had an extra access threaded hole in the forward top, side area.
I extended with 6" hose, and put a foot valve on it.
It may drip occasionally, but it has always been dry when ever I checked it for leaks.

I replaced mine two years ago.
Check the size needed.

Mine is doing the same from the starboard side, in the head. It was bed with 3M 5200.
I am a huge fan of butyl rubber, and will be a project for me as well. I think it is just an ongoing item, that needs to be redone every five years.

I have done it several times, thanks to what I have learned on this class website. I use the main sheet and run it aft to the Primary cockpit winches. Works great. I do think I will convert to spectra line someday, instead of the threaded rod. Easier to work with, and store. But I wanted to learn on...

Great exposure for the Class.

Although I have the 1/2" Screw from Boomkicker too. I drilled and tapped a 1/4-20 hole into the mast track 1/2" above the bolt rope feeder. Then screwed a 1/2" machine screw into the spar. The slugs will start at that height, and stay above. I have a single reef, and the location is n...

Sorry I can't help you. But I need new ones as well.
