I use that space for seldom used "odds and ends" that need to go somewhere.

I did the tiles from Sailing Solutions & I am very happy I am going to do the panels at the side of the engine to sail lockers and I am also working on a design for an aft engine bulk head to apply the tile to also.

How many tiles did you end up using?

Well, I decided to go ahead and get a gallon of Silent Running SR 1000 and give it a try.  My expectations aren't terribly high.  I will be happy if it will just reduce the vibration and noise a little bit.  I'll report on the results in a week or two.

Any results yet?  I have also been considering this.

The previous owner of my boat repowered with a 44B.  It has the original tranny and V drive.

Congrats on the new boat and welcome!

If anyone needs crew for the Harvest Moon, I would love to have a chance.  I live in San Antonio so it is pretty easy for me to get anywhere in Texas.  I'm not ready to race my boat yet but would love some experience on another one.

Thanks,
Allan

I have been thinking about getting a storm jib.  Any recommendations on size?

When we bought our boat.  The broker was there for much of the survey (the broker's boat was next door) and the owner stopped by for a little while.  The owner was around to answer any questions for the surveyor.  When we went on the sea trail, the owner handled the boat.  The owner was a licensed captain and that actually saved us a bit of money during the sea trial as we didn't have to pay for a captain.  The owner was very helpful and truthful with the surveyor and I think it was a big help.  The owner was so impressed with our surveyor, he asked for his card so he could use him for his next boat purchase.

Anyone fly one?  What size is it?  How do you rig it?

In my search for interesting things to do with a ketch, I've been exploring some sail options.

Ideas?  Suggestions?

I'm interested in setting up a mizzen staysail on my 365.  Any information on sail size and attachments?

Thanks!

I really don't care to find out if my boat is this tough!   :o

Thanks.  I seem to have plenty of other tasks to tackle tomorrow so I will put this one off for another day.

As the title suggests, both the throttle and gear shift levers are stiff.  Anyone have any suggestions for loosening them up?  I am heading out to the boat tomorrow to work on this (and other things).

Hi all,

We are the new owners of a 1981 Pearson 365.  Our boat is formerly known as New Fantasy and is hull number 375.  We are renaming the boat Zotz (the Maya word for bat).  You'll probably be hearing more from me as I come up with questions, until then...fair winds and following seas!
