    On the subject of cockpuit covers (enclosures?) the covers of Ronar M have jammed in the tracks at the roof on either side. The vertical tracks on the windscreen and the rear track on the roof are fine.

     

    Any tips for how to remove them? I presume salt corrosion of the aluminium track and swelling of the boltrope has caused the problem.

    That’s super, thanks Marilyn. Now I know what I’m looking for I’ve found the tiller at the bottom of the lazarette. I will find a new location for it, more accessible in an emergency, although I think the steering system looks pretty bulletproof.

    Thank you for the welcome.

    Purchase will complete early July and then we plan to sail Ronar M to her new home port of Ramsgate after Trevor very kindly gives us a couple of days familiarisation. We hope to be able to contribute to the group as wisely as Trevor (and maintain Ronar M to the same exceptional standard).

    PS If anyone knows someone who is looking to purchase a Contessa 26, please let us know 🙂  Ours will shortly be up for sale.
