Aquarius Sail Owners

Being new to the ARC/RC/SC crowd, is there a regatta organizes for us by us? And where/ when?

good thing the boat weighs more than the truck!

Miami to Key Largo Race.....?

Dan. The only parts I have are H-20 specific, and in very good shape. I am not sure that we can help each other. How ever, you had put me in touch with a guy that needed a whole lot of parts, I lost his contact information. I don't want to sell any of my stuff until he has first right of refusal... ...

You must have turned it on while you were on I-95!

Or you were sailing in a 25 knot current with 28 knots of boat speed on top of the water.

Or you were actually on the ARC 17.....


Just kiddin' Bill

Not much happening out there right now. Does anyone have anything to share? Problems? Solutions? Ideas? I just bought an old Nacra 5.2 to restore, '88 I think, good sails, hulls are a little soft, UV has had its way with her but I think I can bring her back. I am looking forward to some leisure sail...

Unfortunatly, I received the boat with this style rigging and then took that rigging to get it duplicated.

A note to al of you. don't fool with the specs, it will cost you later. (or it will cost the next owner)

I'll see you at MKL...

Bill,

Do you suppose I can have the rigger un swage them and re rig it with an eye without creating a safety issue?

What is the proper way to make the bottom end of the side stay (shroud) for the ARC21. I just replaced the standing rigging, the rigger used stainless thimbles with a double swage. The problem is that the lower swage gets in the way if I try to rake the mast, it is limiting the thimble from going pa...

Has there been any efforts made to produce a snuufer for the ARC21? Using the spin in the Tradewinds regatta was a real work out because of the need to launch from the deck. I could imagine a much better placing in a bouy race had we not wasted as much time as we did fooling with the spin 3 or 4 tim...

Well, I tipped the ARC21 a few feet past the finish line in the very last race at Tradewinds. We were able to gight it without deploying the shroud extender since the wind was "kickin". I remember hearing that Bill R. uses a method where he tightens the mainsheet and forces the traveller d...

Thanx Tom,, We are the sameweight as you at 380. It felt like no zip when we were trying to point with the other boats. As for sails and prebend, I am a sail science dummy, I need diection to figure out what I have. The prebend I assum can be measure by drawing a taught line from the top to the bott...
