HOW TO CHANGE A CENTREBOARD ON MY TRIMARAN | Ep.123 

digging a trench in the lawn... the things we do to go sailing 🤣🤣🤣 really cool channel mate new subscriber here

Great job well done Alex

Well done Alex. That looks like it could have been a nightmare of a job. Thanks for sharing. All the best with the other tasks. Hope you are on the water soon. Here it is the depth of a Canadian Prairie winter so no sailing ‘till likely May at the earliest, whenever the lake melts 😢

Lots of potential for fingers being pinched in this job, nice job of excavating the garden lol

She looks great

Very interesting episode Alex and great job sorting out the centerboard! I was thinking, if you had small line fed down through the centerboard trunk, looped around the spool and back up, you could use it to help position the spool and align the pin. (Just a thought) I did some work fairing a rudder and later learned, it the both sides of a foil aren't exactly symmetrical to each other, you may experience vibration at various speeds. The solution was to make some templates and compare each side to ensure they're the same. Cheers, Tim

Yes great job finished. You are very lucky to have Daniel Shure we will see more of him Look forward to more videos.👍👍👍

Great work. You make it look straightforward, but that's a really substantial job!

Excellent work on a tricky job. With my hawk I towed the trailer up a ramp to provide the working room under.

Good job well done

Nice job ... i can't wait to see how she handles with a working centerboard!!!

Nice one :) good work

Well done sir

very wood episode

Alex: I have a 2008 Telstar 28. Your videos have inspired me to do more modifications myself. My centerboard rope failed last season. I’m having the boat hauled this week. What size and length of rope did you use to replace the old line around the drum? I have the video Tony and Will made but they don’t discuss that. Thanks for any help. My board is longer than yours, hopefully that won’t make a difference.

I would have used silicon rather than sikaflex, that is going to be more than a pain if you have to get that back off again

the centreboard really was lacking material. Should be much more effective, over nothing. 2x👍

Bet you wished you had dug the hole before driving the trailer in place! Out of interest, what is the size, thickness and specification of the board.

You realise thst would have been easier to do when the trailer wasn't under the boat 😂
