Haul time
Looks like I'm going to get her (Sabre 30, MkII, 1982) hauled in a few days.
Short list of TBDs: paint prop zincs full engine service, including valve adjustment, oil, filter, zincs, impeller, etc. add 2nd Racor filter with quick switch relap two seacocks (bronze Spartens) replace the steaming light pull extra wires from the masthead to the base, add a Windex light Of course, there are lots of other things to do. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

No appreciable bottom growth, minor expenses between then and now. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

I've been getting by with only hauling every few years, rather then once a year and had the same outlook toward cutlass bearings but the past couple of haul outs the bearing hasn't been "that bad" so I left it alone and a year or so later began to get rattling and vibration at certain RPMs. Dive down and shake the prop and sure enough the bearing is loose. Now I just automatically change it every time I have the boat out of the water. (Even got my own puller :-) Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) |

I'll check it myself, but I'm pretty sure it's ok. There's no vibration I can feel on the wheel. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

While true, I'm not going to replace something that is perfectly fine. I've seen boats that had some play in the bearing, that went another three years on the advice of the yard manager in agreement with a surveyor, the former of whom who certainly had incentive to change it. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
