Scott,

Is PHRF NW allowing you to raise your centerboard? I was under the impression that they have said no.

Thanks Dave, but I am looking for the locaction in the rudder not the cheek plates. I need to drill a new hole in a new rudder.

Can anyone help with this measurment?

Thanks,

Kevin

I saw one post where someone said they drilled a hole in the top plate and terminated the line with a stopper knot. Has anyone else done that? Thanks, Kevin

I have hull #132 and am unable to get any pre bend using the Boston tuning gude numbers. The mast is actually inverted 1/2". Is this common or do I have a problem. The mast has not been replaced at least in the last 14 years.

Thanks,

Just lowered the mast and found all the all the rivets loose on the spreader bracket. I have hull # 132. The bracket wraps around the mast and has 4 rivets on each side. I found a reference to a bracket with 8 rivets per side in the old forum. Is this the same bracket with less holes or is there a n...

I'd like a CD with pics of the NE. Email me at sj24 AT icehouse.net and I'll give you my address. I'd be happy to pay for it.

Thanks,
