I have a vega 18 trailer sailer which is fibreglass and i have a problem with the swing keel, it seems to slap from side to side in the keel box. I have been unable to get any drawings or information regarding the layout of the keel and I would be very grateful for any information you can give.

Thanks in hope! Rob Michalski

Corribee Owners Assosciasion

It is not possible to get through to the Corribee owners assosciasion . I have also just purchased a corribee mk 2 ‘giovanna’ which also has been restored as she was in need of some tlc . They are very strong, I know this as we have had to cut holes in numerous places around the boat and the fibreglass layup is very thick . The boat now has a lot of new fittings. If you do find out how to change the details on the owners assosiasion could you please comment on how to do it as I would be very keen to change my details of ‘giovanna’.

Have good sailing this season from Thomas Calcutt

Having recently purchased a Swift 18, on first rigging I managed to snap the steel forestay cable in the Rotostay roller reefing system. Could anyone advise me where I could obtain a replacement cable.

Manta 19 yacht centre plate

admin — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 21:09:49 +0000

I want to remove the centre plate from my Manta 19, I presume its a bolt or pin that it turns on–so where is it? Do I chip away the paint at the front of the keel, or is it some sort of “hooky over” device.
