The inside front part of the top of my Mast Step is worn down to the glass.I have tried the Teflon strips,spaying it and the lower mast section with Mclube.Have tried recoating with gel coat but it does not last.
Not really concerned with the cosmetic look but concerned that I may wear right...
want to update my old vang to a 6:1 purchase.I need a swivel to do this.As I recall there was an expensive Super Vang Swivel but also know there is a more economical RWO version.Does anyone know where I can purchase the RWO version?
last couple of days out sailing have heard a loud pinging type noise.Sailing in big waves in cold water.Only occurred a couple of times in two days.Used two different top sections,so it is not that.
Almost sounded like the time I broke my vang tang.Checked every thing over and everything appears...
want to exchange my Blocks that have been through bolted,wondering how to get old ones off and still use the through bolts.
Unfortunatly I cut the bolt off flush with nut.
Looking for input on wether or not they are worth putting on ( again).Had some on before and they really did not seem to reduce the wear on my Mast Step.Maybe they just need to be replaced?
Any suggestions on what to do to tidy up mast step wear.I already use the mast wear strips on my mast,and I regularly wax the mast step and mast base.Also spray with Mclube.
Just looking for ideas on how to make it look a little nicer.
Quite often when going upwind in 10-14 knts of wind my lower leeward telltale will stall while my upper ones are still streaming nice.
What adjustment can I make so my upper and lower telltales are breaking at the same time?
Busted mine out sailing last night.No big issue ,just curious if anyone else has broken one.This is a first for me in 25+ years of sailing the Laser.Also this was on my newer boat 2007.
I am going to try and extend my Carbon Tiller extension by sleeving two Carbon Tubes together.The one piece has 1" O.D. the other has 3/4" O.D. any sugestions on how to would be appreciated .
I am not a big supporter of the new Mylar Radial cut sail and carbon mast.as someone who races there boat 2-3times a year I cannot justify spending extra dollars to upgrade in order to race.
Better solution for myself is just reduce the price of the dacron sail.
