thank you, I have corrected it Syd.

Hi, have a look at the 'Component Shop' web site for 'Kingmax' sail winches. There is a selection of possibilities for use in a Marblehead. 77g Professional at £69.75 (No personal experience of this winch, was thinking of trying it in the future as specification looks good) 68g High Voltage at £47.50 (A fellow club member uses this on IOM with no issues, will take higher voltage LiPo batteries) 61g Digital at £28.95 ( I have used this one on both IOM & Marbleheads, I used LiFi battery on this which is just a little over recommended maximum voltage (6V). Only problem I had was when set up was wrong so trying to hold an unachievable position and burnt first winch out. Fitted new winch with updated endpoint and no further issue) There is a posting on the site regarding this winch. Need to state other suppliers are available. Regards Eric

Syd, I think you may want to delete the two attachments on this post as they are nothing to do with sailing.

pm'd you

I am about to start putting together a Paradox and it only has the space for a standard winch ( not a Red Ant or RMG ) other than the PJ36 what other options are out there?

I have left an answer phone message

Marblehead sailors Please, lets not make this too complicated! We at Fleetwood, think that there are lots of old classic & vintage Marbleheads in lofts & garages, which have not been raced for some years. We just thought that this will be a good opportunity for them come out to play. Rob, as you're looking for ranking points for next years worlds, obviously you'll bring your Grunge. Gary, we'd love you to come with your Bloodaxe (as I've mentioned before a Bloodaxe was joint 1`st in 1976) You may be racing with modern boats in the early heats, but the fleets will establish themselves, as they do with HMS, an soon you will be racing with the other vintage boats for a prize just for that class. Hope this makes sense, and you'll all come and join us for a weekend of celebration of "50 years the Radio Marblehead class" Entries are now OPEN!

I’ll be at Lincoln Colin.

My number is 07973 322131 - pls give me a call when convenient to you

I am based near London , where would I perhaps be able to meet you and come and see the boat pls

Yes it is.

I'm not in a position to advise on how modern vs. classic designs might be scored/rated (Mr B might know more), but in any case I'd like to drop into this thread the upcoming Ranking weekend at Lincoln - https://www.mya-uk.org.uk/events/#events/event-details/6900f2165991040322ddfaeb/ You can be assured of a very warm welcome!

And if Fleetwood serves up its finest C 2rig down the middle, then we’ll need to have a full wardrobe of rigs for them too…

Hi - good afternoon Is your boat still for sale ?

That's what I was wondering... if I get a Bloodaxe together would I have to sail it against the Grunges and Prime Numbers?

Let’s pretend that I get a classic M up and running (I’ve been saying this for years but I will one day..) and let’s say I’d like to race that old girl too, but I need to qualify for the upcoming worlds and the ranking points are crucial (assuming they are still double at a nationals), can I only enter 1 boat? Will there be an option to sail oldies against oldies and still compete at the higher end?? This might be the impetus I need to get K2477 going again..

Hi Stephen, Thanks for your insightful comment. BW Alan

Depends on what it has with it to its value. I sold one and made an older man very happy as he had a britpop again, 2012 or so version and around the lower price range that someone said, it’s not always about ££££!

Hello, Thank you for your estimate of the value of my Britpop, it’s helpful to have another estimate of its value. However I can’t accept or reject any offer since this site is not to advertise or sell yachts. Best wishes, Alan

Probably a wise choice to avoid all the extra transport costs.
