Hi Larry,
Steve sold his boat about 2 years ago. I have another Catalina 38 in Seattle, called Image. We just signed up for Pac Cup in 2022. Would love to race to Hawaii against another Catalina 38 - maybe we can make 2023 work or you can go in 2022 🙂
Best
Marc

Pierre,
I had that welded up at work with stainless plate to match the bolt holes on the mast base, then had got SS u bolts and cut off the threads. I had to place the u bolts so as not to interfere with blocks leading off the mast. But It worked great for attaching halyards.

Hi Steve
What is that "ring of rings" around the mast base? I want one now. Thanks.

Winch location really comes down to how you use your boat, I prefer the main sheet winch at the mast on the same side that the reefing winch is on the boom, it makes hoisting, dropping and reefing very simple for one person or short handed crews. Having winches located forward rather than leading everything to the cockpit forces you to go forward which gives you the opportunity for inspection. I eventually added two winches mid ship with clutches on both sides for the jib and spin halyards, two winches on the cabin top for control lines and the primary and secondaries in the cockpit. For gaskets I used mylar sheet and cut to size for anything metal to metal along with a coat of Duralac.

The primary winches also had a washer style gasket at the base but I was never able to find a replacement and ended up cutting some out of phenolic sheet stock. Your best friend in rebuilding the winches is a schematic and take pictures if you are worried about getting them back together, just take your time taking them apart so you remember how they go back together, can look daunting when looking at an exploded diagram, but it is pretty easy.

Tef-gel! Cool! Thanks for telling me about this product! I'm going to use that on my Hobie catamaran as well.

There are several options.
Sent all my lines to the cockpit and installed a Lewmar 40st on starboard side to be used with mainsheet and also main halyard. Way easier is somebody is grinding me up the mast
You can also leave the q6 where it is, and install the new 30 on Port and install a block where the mainsheet is attached to, so you can control the mainsheet from both sides.
BTW, no gaskets back then. You can install one or use Teff gel
Hope this helps.

In the latter case I would have to move some blocks too.
