Hi Don,
I will try to address your question about sailing on the 17. The 17 really likes ot have the leeward hull driven bow down. Ideally , the leeward hull will be bow down with the water somewhere between the pinstripe and the deck, and the bottom of the stern will be well clear of the water. The ...

Hi Don,
I didn't recall the exact adhesive that has been used over the years, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't 5200. It was typically a two part epoxy that took about 24 hours to cure.

Make sure the inside of the ball and the post are clean and you can fully install the ball. Put a coating of the ...

In shallow water I will kick up one rudder completely and the other rudder I'll kick up part of the way while holding the pull down rope to prevent it from coming up all the way. Once the rudder is part way up/down it will usually stay in that position.

That being said, it can be extremely ...

Vic,
Hull weights varied over the years, and with age they tend to get heavier. That being said I would plan on something around 100 lbs, could be a little more or a little less.
There should not be any sealant between the beams and the hull saddle. People seemed to think it was needed, but we ...

Correct, the caps are not threaded. Corrosion is likely the issue since the rod is stainless and the cap is aluminum.

Kevin,
The threaded end is swaged onto the cable and is not removable. You should however be able to remove the nuts from the end of the threaded rod and remove the end caps, but the cable will remain captive inside the beam. Make sure to make note of how far onto the threaded rod the nuts are ...

No, the luff length would be too long to fit on the SC19

We have done it a few times on the 22. I searched the forums and didn't find any photos. If you contact Tom he will have some information on what was done in the past.

I don't think the drain plug threads match a recognized standard and are likely unique to each manufacturer.

The plug on all ARC, RC & SuperCat products has always been a Ronstan product. If you cannot find them locally, we have them and can ship to you. Please email sales@aquarius-sail.com or call ...

Hi James,

Regarding the manual, contact Tom Haberman via email at sales@aquarius-sail.com and he can get you the correct manual for your boat. It may be helpful if you can provide him with the serial number as well.

Regarding your other questions:
Yes, the Forestay and Side Stays attach to the ...

Jonathan,
Your attachment point for pulling the gin pole to raise the mast must be on the centerline of the boat or you are going to have issues.

On the 22 we have a bridle attached to the beach wheel axle. We place the beach wheels under the bows of the boat and secure them with a piece of rope to ...

Jonathan,
It has been a long, long time since I put together a telescoping 20 but we always did the telescoping in the water. Floated the boat off the trailer in the collapsed configuration and then once it was floating we pulled it apart, and put the beam bolts and dolphin striker sleeve in the ...

Hello,
The rig on the SC17 is typically pretty loose and never really found a use for the loos type gage on that rig..
Here are the recommendations for a starting point:
Mast should have 5 degrees of rake relative to the deck of the hull. YOu can use angle finder from the local home improvement ...
