Note: One of
the possible materials is "Lexan", a high impact polycarbonate sheet.
Another Maxi sourced their material from "Talking Plastics" in Havant.

Maxi
130 Ketch Propeller
Does anyone know the pitch of the original propeller for my
Maxi 130, a 13M ketch registered in 1982? I know its a left hand 17", but
I don't know the pitch. She has the original Volvo MD21 engine still
fitted.

"On my Maxi 95 #719, I have noticed that there is no
filter on the seawater inlet for the engine cooling (Volvo Penta MD2B). I assume
it has survived like this since its original fitting, but I think it might be a
good idea to fit one. Does anyone have suggestions for a suitable filter (Vetus
?) and a good placement position (difficult to fit in the bilge so possibly a
bracket somewhere up on the engine ?).
Thanks for any suggestions." Please email Jeremy Turnbull
We've had a couple of
very useful feedback comments saying a seawater filter is very advisable and we
now have a
photo of an installation to an Maxi 1100.

Maxi 1000 Dorade Vent Guards
I have caught the
Dorade Vents on my Maxi 1000 with the genoa sheets a few times, once pulling one
right off. So I am now resolved to fitting some stainless guards. Has anybody
fitted guards and can recommend where to buy them from? Maxi Sweden do some
round ones, at a price, but I fancy some squarer ones like those you see on
Najads.
