Paul

It's a Union 36 - virtually the same boat as the Hans Christian 36 - same
mold, same yard. Made in Taiwan, 1981. 'Sort of' designed by Robert Perry -
the yard stretched his design for a 34 and forgot to pay him royalties.
There's a story.

Many of the images and experiences of the Baba crowd seemed quite similar to
things I've had to deal with on my boat.

Lots of knowledgeable folk on this list. I thought I might benefit from the
forum's experiences.

There's a Union 36 list - but not much traffic.

Your boat's website is quite sophisticate. Mine's a bit primitive.

Thanks

Jon

Hi Jon,
What type of boat do you have, on my 79 baba 30 the rudder tube is integral
to the hull, or so it seems, the stuffing box is glassed in and there is no
rubber hose.
I have pictures here http://www.lady-stardust.co.uk/rudder.htm assuming my
ISP leaves me alone.
