Hi Dale, Thank you for your response. I have been reading your posts since I acquired the boat; I have found them most informative. I look forward to picking your brain as I go through the rehab process. I have heard these boats are great to sail; I can't wait to get her in water.
We like the name Sparrow too, but I wanted name her after my mother, Patricia.
Thank you and happy Thanksgiving. Peter

Hello to everyone at the Pearson's yacht club. Four months ago I bought hull #12, formerly The Sparrow. I'm four months into a one-year rehab that I hope won't take three. So far, I've ripped out all the plumbing, taken out the alcohol stove, complete bottom job, topside paint, and new electronics.
I found this site to be very informative before I was a member, and more so now that I am a member.
Currently, I am going over the wiring, and I would like to know if there's a place on the site where I could look at schematic drawings and pdf files, or if anyone who has such would send them to me via email: precisioncraftsmen@gmail.com
I have two questions relevant to work I'm currently or planning to do, and I look forward to hearing your advice.
1. I plan to upgrade all the original electronics; leaning toward RayMarine. Reading through the posts, some people love RayMarine, others hate it. The existing autopilot was a Benmar Course Setter 21. It had a chain-driven motor mounted directly to the steering. I plan to use the RayMarine chain-driven unit and mount it in the same place it was originally. Is this a wise move?
2. For the head, I plan to install a Raritan PHII electric, very similar to the original one. It flows to a Y-valve, where waste goes directly overboard in front of the starboard water tank or switches to a flexible holding tank (brand new) that was mounted under the cabin floor in the center of the boat, where it goes back up to a macerator pump and gets discharged.
I know this system isn't legal for today's boat, I was wondering if it'd be okay to put it back exactly as it was under a grandfather clause.
Thank you.
