Since your last visit 2 33 3 New Topics Unread Notifications New Users Popular Topics General August 7 Clanging at anchor Blake Payette N33 Brentwood Bay BC Procyon At a quiet anchorage this week the swell coming in from the Pacific caused quite a bit of rolling overnight and some mysterious noises, one of which was a muted clanging with two “notes”. A roll to port produced one note and a roll to starboard produced a slightly different sound but similar in tone. The sound is kind of like wood hitting the inside of a metal tube, a bell like tone. These seem to be coming from the mast area. My halyards are not causing it, and the upper choker block is padded and sounds different when lightly struck against the mast.  0  1 Read More Upgrades and Great Ideas August 7 Quick and dirty way to make a raised helmseat

Bob Neches, Me Gusta, Nonsuch e26U #233 NS233

In case of interest, I just finished building the second version of a raised helm seat for my boat. (Admittedly, there are a few additional cosmetic things I might do, but not in an hurry.)

Has anyone else done that yet? My NS36 has it routed that way. Other than keeping it above the water line, any other suggestions or concerns?  0  0 Read More

[Wheeler, Michael]

Hello fellow Nonsuch Zealots,

 

I got my first one (Sabbatical) in 1985 and kept it a long time. Then I got a larger cruising boat, a J-37, and enjoyed it a lot. But I reverted about ten years ago when we got Sequel.

 

Given my advancing years, I sold the boat early this summer and have signed on as crew for a friend who got a Nonsuch after seeing ours in the mid-80s. I’ve enjoyed reading about your experiences and innovations. But with some regrets, I’d appreciate if you can take me off the mailing list. I’m swamped with emails.

 

Many thanks,

 

Mike Wheeler

We have a NS30C (#40) and I just completed the installation of Atkins & Hoyle 2000 Fixed Davits. These are transom mounted with backing plates. I noticed that even with these backing plates there is a noticeable amount of flex in the transom and it is somewhat disconcerting. Has anyone else installed davits like these on their Nonsuch? (there must be!)? Did you add any additional support and how is it working out?

General August 20 Engine Mounts Randy Gadikian Randy_Gadikian I want to replace the engine mounts for my Westerberke 13HP. While the engine runs fine it rattles the entire boat. I know that our engine mounts are pretty simple, two rubber doughnuts holding a steel plate. I would like to reverse engineer a mount. Does anyone have one sitting around?  0  4 Read More

Popular Topics Questions & Answers September 3 Winterizing in Maine Nick Burnett NickB I have a Yanmar 3JH2CE engine with a Yanmar SD31 saildrive. The raw water enters from the saildrive through an attached seacock. I assume that after I haul the boat I can dis-attach the hose leading to the water filter, then join a hose to it that I can then put in a five gallon bucket so that I can run the engine. Change fuel filters, change oil and filter. This is my main question- about the raw water.  0  1 Read More
