Emergency cockpit knife
This is a little project I’ve been meaning to do for a while. I had this idea a few years back, but I didn't get around to doing it until I was preparing for this season.

Re: Comparing Freedom 35 with Freedom 38?
The 35 sails much better in light winds, the 38 needs at least 10kt of breeze to do anything. Above 15kt, a 38 is right in its prime, and I imagine the 35 is reefed or close to it. From 12kt to 20kt, it is a very fast boat, handles excellently, and is quite comfortable. A 38 is also much better in h...

Re: F21 mast swaying
I think I might have mentioned this to you, but Paul Dennis has a mast from that red F21 that he scrapped. Getting the mast to you would be tricky, but he would probably ship you the masthead piece. I'm not sure if it's the same design as the mastheads on the bigger Freedoms, but if it is, there ain...
