That's a great process break down. I didn't see any pictures though? Are you aware of any line dimensions?
My sock has a rigid frame to keep it open -I'm not sure it was the stock set up or just how mine was made.

Spinnaker Rig Freedom 30
I have obtained the original spinnaker and sock for my F30 (it had been in the POs storage) but it is missing the lines and rigging. That said, I have a collection of blocks I found on the boat that I think constitute the hardware. I'd be interested if there is a resource or if anyone could detail t...

Re: f30 shaft seal
Thanks for the tip on the prop strut bolt location. My immediate concern is inspecting to see if the strut is grounded properly, so maybe an endoscope is all I need -unless I have to do some work in there.

Re: f30 shaft seal

Re: F30 Prop Strut Dezincification
Thanks so much for that. I just heard back from Paul Dennis and that was his advice as well. I'll just have to locate where the strut is accessible.

F30 Prop Strut Dezincification
The PO had anti-foul paint on the prop strut which we just stripped off and discovered what I'd classify as mild dezincification, some pink splotches, no pitting. There is some thought that copper based anti-fouling can do this, but also that the insulating properties of the cutlass bearing could be...

F30 Bottom Paint Estimate
I need to get bottom paint and I was wondering if anyone had a good number of how much it might take to do the bottom of an F30.

Re: F30 Holding Tank Set Up Question
Yes that would work but you have at least one thing missing. The valve on the through hull, without closing that you would get flow to both OB and tank. Also you had another two way valve in one of your pictures (PXL_20220429_194015513.jpg), perhaps that was to stop the pump backfilling the heads, ...
