Overhaul, opting out of old electronics.
Fellow Chrysler Fans Terrence from wilmington. This will be my first rewiring job of this magnitude; any advice would be well received. My plans for the eletronics is to go handheld as much as possible, to cut down on the amount of wiring. http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab131/hp18carr/R1-12A.jpg...

Chrysler 26 1980
Hi Clair
This old girl up until now has lived her life in salt waters and has taken a number of shots. After the overhaul if all goes well, I plan to put her out to pasture so to speak. Lake Watauga in Tenn, is where she will spend her golden years.

bearings.
I do not know how many thay may have, but yes to my understanding thay have some that will fit Chrysler 22's as well. My pair for a c26 was $90... give them a call at 866-400-2204.

Chrysler 26 rudder bearings.
Heads up! I just ordered a pair from Idasailor Marine. I'm sure I'll need them when I rework the rudder. Also I was told they still have one pair left. This may be old news, and I'm not trying to drum up business for them but they will make another run of them, if five or more orders are called in. ...

Thanks for the encouragement. Alan had it right... overwhelmed does come to mind. I am sure all those on this Chrysler web who have been down this road before will be my greatest asset. I am hoping the rework will be nearly as fun as sailing, for it will be a good while before Pandora is back in the...

Thanks, but don't be too envious.
Thanks to all for the congrats on my find, but don't be too envious. She has sat for five years totally neglected, this is not a turn key project. My first thoughts on a new name... Pandora.

Hi Jeff Terrence, the same as in years past, I have been by the lake from time to time on our trips to the cabin, but it has taken me this long to stumble on to the right sailboat so to speak. This 1980 c26 has lived a saltwater life, but after I restore it my plans are to bring it up to Watauga lak...

I stumbled onto a trailer for a fair price a while back and now I have stumbled onto a 1980 C26 that was left high and dry for five years and all but forgotten. As what seems to be my nature I will be stumbling through the rehab of this old girl. So the information on this forum will be indispensabl...

cracks forming around mast step among other things!
My fellow Chrysler addicts, your sage advice is coveted. I am in the process of Chrysler 26' sailboat hunting and I am considering one or two at this time. The owner of one of them has told me there are cracks froming around the mast step and it would need to be booted or re-fiberglassed soon. In ad...
