:: I got shear pins from Svendsens in Alameda a while ago.
:: I keep a spare taped to the bottom of the nav table
:: after a long delivery when the motor would run but not
:: turn the prop. Be sure to put the motor away under the
:: deck in neutral so the prop dosen't bang on somthing and
:: can't spin.
:: For the mainsheet I get used rope or some roll end from
:: Hansen Rigging. They are usually already softened up and
:: the cover is a bit roughed up for grip. You should stop
:: by his shop as he has the largest selection of reall
:: cool ropes I have seen.
:: Will

:: :: I'm a co-owner of Partial Magic, now on the Penninsula.

:: :: Anyone have:
::
:: :: 1. Correct shear pin size for our Tohatsu 3.5 outboard?
:: :: and
::
:: :: 2. Line recommendation for a new mainsheet - we want
:: :: something 'grippy' right out of the box that doesn't
:: :: hockle, runs well, and comes in solid colors. We like
:: :: 7/16" (11mm) diameter. Recommemdations so far are Salsa,
:: :: Conception and Samson XLS.

:: :: Thanks,

:: :: Looking forward to some racing soon.

:: :: Much thanks, Steve
