No problem George, One of the nice things about sailing the waters of the Salish Sea (new PC name for all the US and Canadian waters from Olympia to just below...
Hello Dan Thanks so much for this. Nice that there is at least one boat in the water. This will be helpful cheers George Heritage ... From: Dan Leach To:...
Since I had to go out on deck anyway, I took a tape with me. And on the s/v Marie, Niagara 35, the answer is 7 feet from the cockpit sole to the bottom of the...
Hello all, Can anyone help with the height of the boom over the cockpit sole. THis would be at the dock, sail down. Any help would be much appreciated thanks...
Peter, There is a large difference between Classic and Encore prices. Classic (Mark I) designs seem to rarely hit $100k whereas nearly all Encores in decent ...
No problem with your message. The listing prices at the moment seem to be "all over the map", from very low for poor condition to over 100,000 for those in...
I'm sorry if this message is not appropriate for this group but for health reasons I must sell our Niagara Encore (1986). We have had the boat for 12 years and...
George, there is a N35 manual in the files section on our webpage. The owners' manual that we have is not specific to the Encore. I don't know if they ever...
Good afternoon,  Thank you for replying. The boat I'm looking at has a Westerbeke W-33.  I've seen the spec.'s for the Yanmar 40 and the Volvo 40. The...
Had a Universal in my Nonsuch 30-Â found alot of vibration.....Would look at Westerbeke or Yanmar if had choice. ________________________________ From:...
We chose Universal and are still working to solve our vibration issues. Not recommended. We know 2 owners who are happy with Yanmar 40s. Marilyn Bread and...
Hi everyone, You can buy a plastic welding torch for around $100. It uses hot air and as I recall runs on 120V AC. You can buy a variety of rods for different...
Hello folks! I had a crack in the plastic water tank on my Nonsuch 26-Â I repaired it using a wide-tipped soldering gun (be gentle!) and then a caulking...
Yes. We initiated the discussion over a crack in our stbd tank. Look in the archives for new tank sources, at considerable cost, or my Home Depot patch...
Hi, I've been on before asking about sailing characteristics - stiff, tender, etc. and you've been most helpful. We are still negotiating for the 1958 Encore...
Hi Dennis, Peter at HMP in Mississauga does this type of welding. I have had tanks repaired and manufactured by Peter and have held up well so far. Terry...
Has anybody ever tried mending a leak in one of the plastic water tanks? I think I vaguely recall a previous discussion about welding polyethylene tanks. Any...

Another thought I had is that the bilge needs proper ventilation. Somebody I talked to installed small computer type milliamp fan(s) to draw air out from the...
Henry, Make sure the vented loop is working properly. The vent on the top of the loop needs to be serviced from time to time. Also, check that the vent line ...
