Looks like it's back- I got in just then -probably maintenance issue.
If there are any money issues with running this site Ian I would only be too glad to chip in and so would the others I'm sure. Just mail me.
The thought of losing these sites is too much to bear.
Cheers

Re: Investigator Regatta
Thanks John
That sounds inviting- unusual to have a meet in NSW. I will try to make it as I only have to travel from Wollongong.

Re: Holy transom
Hi Ian The non-return flap is a good idea - the pics are'nt very clear but I've only cut the transom and cockpit holes so far (100x65mm) I'm thinking of forming a wooden plug to make a fiberglass insert and go from there.

Holy transom
I finally plucked up enough courage to cut out a cockpit drain
now I have to figure out how to finish it.

The reason I ran the wiring through stbd locker and main bulkhead was to keep the wiring high in the event of a knock down - the only wiring I have in bilges is two bilge pumps and auto switch in bilge below companionway step.
