Re: Garage Boat Hoist/Lift
I used the same method to raise my boat in the garage to paint the bottom and it worked great! The stands I built were pretty much identical to those above. The only major difference was that I used some scrap plywood to brace the base of each stand. I did run into one problem. I had measured everyt...

Re: Replacing Window Sealant
Just as a follow up, I ended up using butyl tape to reinstall the window. It looks like it will work well. Time will tell.

Re: Replacing Window Sealant
I think you might be right. I also asked our specification writer at work and he suggested it might be a butyl product. Not sure if the existing joint was from a tape or a caulk gun.
If you didn't use a butyl sealant, what would you use instead?

Replacing Window Sealant
Hello, I have a 1979 Mark 2 and last year one of the outside window frames was damaged by hitting another boat after my boat got away from it's mooring. The repeated impacts of the window frame against the other boat forced out the sealant and the window started to leak when it rained. Taking off th...

Rigging a Topping Lift
Hello from Wisconsin! This season I would like to rig a topping lift for my boom. I've seen plenty of methods and pictures of how to make the connection at the boom. However, I have not seen any method of attaching it to the top of the mast. Since my boat is still in storage and not accesable, can a...

Mooring a San Juan
I am planning on mooring my boat here in Wisconsin on Lake Mendota this summer and have a couple of questions. Being very new to sailing (having purchased the boat last September), these questions may seem basic, but please be patient. 1. The boat has a kick up rudder made of varnished wood. The rud...

Re: New San Jaun Owner in Wisconsin
The hull is in great shape. It looks like it's been stored inside most of it's life. The fiberglass still has a good finish and there are no cracks anywhere. The top and the transon are solid and the interior is still nice. Since I have almost no sailing experience, I am not the one to gage the sail...

New San Jaun Owner in Wisconsin
Hello! Just purchased a 1979 San Juan 21 Mk II a couple of weeks ago. My wife and I live in Madison Wisconsin area and we were wondering if there were any other San Juan owners in the Madison area. We are fortunate to live next to Lake Mendota, which is a great sailing lake. We have boated most of o...
