San Juan 21 Class Association

Good luck. You have some major work ahead. So I gave my friend a MKII when I was restoring my MKIII. I pulled a lot of parts off of it but it still has the original swing keel under it. The only thing about it is it is now a big flag pole in his yard. He’s retired from the Coast Guard. We’re in Tenn...

Hey congratulations on the new boat! Yeah it’s been real quiet around here lately like Kuriti said. I stop in every now and then from time to time. Once you get it up and running it is a great sailing little boat! It took me about a year to restore my old San Juan 21. Good luck with it and yeah ther...

Wow nice! Good work. Man I’m glad I did not have to do this. You’re a better man than I! GL!

Wow, yeah you definitely have some work to do. I can’t believe someone tried to support the deck that way. Man good luck. I use Faststone resizer to get my pics to size.

Hull 1673 resized.jpg Hello all! So this is hull #1673. She is sailing the green seas down in the valley. I had two SJs and I restored one out of two. This one had a rotten deck and someone had grounded her pretty bad at one time so she would have been more of a restoration than I wanted to deal wi...

Man I’ll bet that was a cold trip! Super nice write up

Yeah it’s definitely not OEM. Both of my SJs had the 1x19 wires. Good luck!

That’s basically how I did my rudder. I drilled a hole in the trailing edge like you did and I drilled and filled it with epoxy so I could pull it up when I want to beach it. It helped. The rudder for me has been the hardest thing to operate on this boat while you are either under sail or motoring i...

Here in Tennessee I sail mostly with a genoa unless the winds get up over approximately eight knots. I have a 130 and a 150 because a lot of times in the summer it won’t get past three knots here on our lake and I need to catch as much wind as I can. I will say that it does not point as well because...

I did mine exactly like Kuriti did And I have had no leaking through the deck where the chain plates go through, that is definitely the way to go. I ended up taking the wooden bulk heads out and I found some quarter inch steel that I made into these bulk heads (see attachment below). I cut them and ...
