U20 Regattas - Where, When & Who's Going! / Re: 2025 North Americans Summary
« Last post by Brad Boston on November 17, 2025, 02:08:13 PM »
Hey Everyone, It was far too long since I’ve been in Lake Normand with  the U 20. I missed this boat and I’ve tried to get back sailing it for some years now, but did not have any success with the calendar. When I pulled back into the club for the first time it just felt welcoming and so were all the people.
We had an absolutely great time racing hanging out and just seeing the great fleet strive there. I really look forward to the next time. (Probably with my kids on the boat with me).
Thanks for the great racing.

That is great Philip!   It would be awesome to see a One Design fleet emerge again in your neck of the woods.

U20 Boat Maintenance & Care / Re: Shroud Adjusters
« Last post by Dean Nelson on November 12, 2025, 09:36:02 PM »
The Ronstan rig adjustment handles do not fit the standard shroud adjuster without a little bit of modification.  Years ago, Don Cory showed me how to add Ronstan handles to my standard shroud adjuster:  1) using aluminum strap, form a square that fits over the existing standard shroud adjuster, 2) place the aluminum square and Ronstan handle adjuster over the standard shroud adjuster, 3) apply vasaline to the stud thread and screw into the standard adjuster, 4) apply tape to the exposed thread, 5) apply epoxy to the shroud adjuster, aluminum square and Ronstan handle...let it soak in and cure, 6) remove stud from standard adjuster, cleaning off tape and vasaline, 7) install stud into standard shroud adjuster.  Attached is a photo of what the final product looks like.

they have to be put on when the shroud stud is out of the turnbuckle
