[C38] Thru Hulls

[Larry Malmberg]

Funny, Hassle lists to port as well.  I have tried to figure out why, we
seem to be fairly well balanced.  When washing the cockpit it always drains
to the port scupper.
 





Best regards,

Team Hassle

Steve,
    The hull mold is one piece and hinged - there are no halfs. Joe

Steve,

Are you sure that the weight inside the boat is comparable to Larry's?
Engine, fuel tank, LP, steering, etc?  It seems like a stretch to think the
keel, even if waterlogged, would pull the stern down so noticeably...more
likely it would weight the entire boat, and maybe a little more so in the
stern.  Do you have old photos you can use to see if it's always been that
way, maybe the weight is in the hull from the factory.

Mine is good fore and aft, but lists slightly to port, which I've always
assumed was do to all the storage and amenities being on the port side.  I
try to rationalize that due to the layout of the boat they must have somehow
considered that
during the design process...so then I start thinking the hull halves are
different weights.  And so goes the neuroses. ;-)

and replacing at least 1 of the 3 remaining  with the Forespar all in an
effort to find that elusive 1/10 of a knot of boat speed.   The plan is to
close up the one under the Vee berth, the head sink, the macerator and the
one where the knot meter use to be on the stbd side of the keel.   Then to
tee the macerator into the head outlet along with the Head and sump pump,
abandon the head sink alltogether, pull water from the engine intake for the
head and galley sea water pump, and use the galley sink thru hull for sink
discharge and watermaker.

get the boat measured in the water, the rater then compared our boat with
Larry's to see how close they were.  Interesting that our stern was about an
inch lower in the water than Hassle.  If you look at Peregrine from the side
you can see the stern boot stripe is in the water or very close.   She does
not have any other gear other than the radar post in the stern.  I did
notice on our last haul out that the skeg seeped the entire time she was
out, Im wondering if it isnt water weight or something else.   Thanks.
