    Unwelcoming Owners' websites

    Strange, when I asked a question on the prospective owners questions on the Moody site, I got lots of answers and information, and an offer to come view a Moody model I was interested in that was local to me in Langstone harbour.. ended up doing an evenings race with the chap, and have kept in...

    SH GX1600E VHF Bracket

    leaving it off would work fine - but cutting the 'ears' off like i have, also works fine - doesn't hinder the bracket and leaves me not worrying about the temp of the back heat-sink and any wires that may get too close.

    recognise this furler system?

    Hi does anyone please recognise this roller furling system that I have on my Hunter horizon 23 - looking at all other HH23's i've ever seen it DOESN'T appear to be the standard fit one.. Over winter i've managed to drop one of the black rollers overboard, so hoping to order a new one many thanks
