OUT FOR THE SEASON
OUT FOR THE SEASON
Hi All,
As of last friday night at 9:30 pm I am officially out for the summer sailing season.
I slipped on the boat ramp and ended up dislocating my shoulder. Next stop was the emergency room.
The ramp was mossy and I went to hook the winch and down I went.
Dr. said no sailing, golf, etc, till the end of august. :(
So keep sending your messages and your pics and I will live the season thru all of you! :)
Hope to get out on RonC c-26 sometime this summer. Sling and all.
Beware of those mossy ramps if you are a trailer sailor!!!

Our summer and fall boating season is over. We pulled the boat out of the lake yesterday. In about 10 to 15 days all launch ramps on the lake will be out of the water. The lake is dropping about one foot a day. We could have kept her in the lake but sense we wanted to do some work on her this year like replace the liner in the cabin, and a few other things we thought we would pull her out now while we still could. Right now it is about 100 yards walk down the side of a hill to get to the marina and will only get worse as the lake drops. Right now the lake is down 176 feet from the top and will go down to about 250 feet from the top by December.

liner replacement?
How are you going to do that?
What condition warrants such a step?
I do have one small crack in the liner on the vertical face below the seat but just forward of where the bulkhead that the sidestay compression plate is attached to. I was thinking that an epoxy or polyester resin repair might take care of that, if it would stick to the liner material. What is the liner made of?
Is it held in at the hull/deck join? Boy that sounds really major.

Back In the Cockpit Again!!
Hey Guys,
Great News from ohio!!
I have gone thru the therapy for my shoulder. Still hurts but I am good to go as far as sailing goes.
I purchased a 9.9 Mariner w/ electric start so I and my wife can start it.
I had a shop pull the keel, replace the brackets,pin and the snubber,
Paint the bottom and buff the hull!! :)
Should look like a new boat.
Plans are to be on the water over the wknd!! Yipee!!!!
Been a LONG summer. I've been sailing thru all or your posts and of course Ronc and his c-26.
Thank you all!!
