Been there, done this.

It was sporting my homemade, tube-like snuffer. That snuffer worked really well. Never hung too low and got soaked like a bag down so low, etc. It was mid pole, (after my e-o hoop got dragged down in heavy seas.)

Posts: 29 Texas | Relaunching my N6 NA this weekend with all new Calverts. Unfortunately had to get an all new mast too. Will be ready Friday. Building a pole set up for the screecher next week. I have ended up replacing almost all of the blocks/ ropes/ lines etc etc. It looks absolutely cherry and i cannot wait. Probably should have bought an inter for the amount of dough piled in but gotta love ebay/ Craigs for Harken and Ronstan. Looking to correspond with similar old/ new N6 boat afflicted folks here in Texas. Thanksgiving Week will be spent off Galveston on it so if any of you are around....
