[Public-list] Non Slip& VDO

[Randy Weatherspoon]

1. A friend who has a Pearson Vanguard used Awlgrip covered  with sand -- 
vacums the next day what is left is course but you can still walk without 
getting blisters on your feet and it looks pretty good---you may want to 
try off the boat to get the hang of it -- but his looks good.

2. I have a VDO I was going to pull off next time I pull the boat out -- 
what is it worth? -- I didn't know you could still get parts-- how big of a 
hole would I need to plug if I pull off the VDO propeller?

3. I have my main and jib halyards brought back which are hard to get up so 
I usually go forward -- mainly I use it to let the main down when I'm out 
singlehanded. I also have a downhaul rigged to my jib.

4. Any input on the size of packing gland / hose size etc?
