INVESTIGATOR 563

Perhaps a quick fix for now would be to lash some spectra around the base of the mast and attach the vang to that. Anybody see anything wrong in that?

To the best of my knowledge, self tappers will not give a firm hold in fibreglass. If you cannot get to the underneath and use bolts, washers, nuts or even a pad to spread the load, i would suggest that you drill a hole too large for the screw, fill the hole with epoxy, then drill into that when it ...

May i ask how you have actually fastened it into the fibreglass?

Yes, yes, saw that!

Have you seen it, it is any better than what seems to be available down here?

I have Zeb, and no.

Saw that one over a year ago. i did tell you about it when we were sailing Robert.

Coops,

Offer taken, now, where are the others?

We would be fine with either of those dates, BUT! we would need to be crew for someone as we do not have an Investigator yet and the Careel is stored mast up at Meridian Shores. It's much quieter in the week

Coops, on the cadge.

Thank you for the info, just had a look, but that is way too much work for me. I am a "ready to sail" buyer.

Coops

If you have read my post "First sail on an Investigator" then you can guess that we are looking for one. Don't really want a project and would really like a top example, so if you are thinking of selling in the near future then contact me. Please.

So now that we are sold on one, who wants to sell me their Investigator then?
