Hello... Anyone with any ideas or recommendations please:
1. Teleflex binnacle compass--repairs? parts? replacement? I do not think parts or repairs are possible. I refilled it myself but then the leak got worse. The globe is cracking too.
2. Propane-specifically what size bottle and where did you install it? I am trying to do this without major deck or glass work. The approved boxes cost a small fortune and may not fit in the best place. My thought is a smaller bottle in a homemade sewer pipe/pvc box in the lazarette.
3. How did you rig a boom preventer? Any nifty or elegant ideas? I will likely put a bale on the boom near the clew and run it with a block and tackle to the forward cleat.
4. Hatches--have you replaced or rebuilt the overhead deck hatches? Do you have any specs on replacement size/brand/cost? I may simply replace the lenses and gaskets or put in new hatches.
Thanks for your time and consideration.
