I have a pair of paravane fish that I never used. *They are made of stainless steel and weigh aprox. *35lbs ea. *There is plenty of room to add more weight in the tube. *They are 28" long x 21" wide form wing tip to tip. *This is a very nice set that is ready to go. *I will take $300 for the...

Thank You, We get a lot of compliments.

32' 1984 Monterey Clipper Trawler with 84 hp 4.236 Perkins: 452 hours new with velvet * * * * drive 1.8:1 *Hull is fiberglass! Cruise: 7.5 knots @ 1.5 gallon/hour fuel burn Boat is in top shape with Awlgrip Paint top to bottowm. 112 gallons fuel, *50 gallons fresh water and 25 gallon holding...

I will try the microwave trick.....thanks for your help it definately sounds like the smart regulator is to blame. * Mark

When I purchased the boat the tachs did not work and was told the previous owner just replaced the alternator with a 100 amp alternator and put an external smart regulator *SAR 12 for the batteries. *I notice that *there is no R terminal on the back of the new alternator and the tach wire was...

The hull is glass and the superstructure is glass over wood. I would definately like to see a pic of your paravane setup. *Thanks for the compliment. Mark

The boat is a Monterey Clipper built in Moss Landing California. *It is Fiberglass unlike most older Clippers. *I plan on putting the paravanes on outriggers that will be mounted to base of the mast on rotating mounts. *The only problem I see is the offset of the mast by 18" to the starb side...

Here is a pic of mast installed....thanks for all your ideas! Mark

With the Ice and cold we have had here in Pensacola I have taken the day indoors to narrow down the design. I have come to the conclusion that i will simply have 3' of height removed from mast and have it fixed to the bulkhead and floor with no worries of lowering and raising each time I leave...

I am planning on using my anchor windlass at the bow.....running the raising/lowering line aft to a lifting halyard block mounted on the top edge of the bridge to compensate for the angle change when lowered. *There will be a stanchion in the cockpit that the mast will rest on when lowered...

I'm not sure the advantages of a square stern are that much more....Without opening a can of worms. The 2 pros to have a square stern would be less drag (less fuel burn) I'm only burning 1.5 gallons an hour @ 8 knots so that's not an issue. And Stability....Now that is an issue hence the...

I have already purchased the mast and cut most of the hardware and downsized it by 6' to fit. I will take some pics of the base/tabernackle along with the mast. I wanted a canoe stern trawler...and narrowed my options to the monterey clipper, willards and fales. I lucked up and found a...

I am concerned with the weight, however, With all the cobia towers I have fished out of with 3-4 people hanging out of them 12' - 18' above the water and averaging 200lbs a body and being in rough conditions I have seen how suspended weight can make a boat roll. We are really only talking...

If I am only lowering the mast around 30 degrees each time to achieve the 3 additional feet of clearance I would think that the leverage wouldn't be an issue. I could see if I were to lower all the way down each time. Even then with the block and tackle being on the bridge (lifting point)...

The paravanes will be removed and only installed right before deployment. *Everything is in the design stage on that end....I have thought of the sailboat winch, however, I am wanting a anchor windlass also. *I have a bridge so the angle will be offset with a block and tackle installed on the...

I am new to the Trawler workd with the recent purchase of our first one being a 32' Monterey Clipper. * I am in the process of installing a mast for radar and paravane stabilizers. *I will be lowering the mast aft with a tabernackle setup about 30 degrees to be able to pass under bridges while...
