New CP-16 owner

[demanon]

Hi Folks
I am VERY excited to say I purchased a 1980 CP-16 from an Estate a couple of days ago. I got it for a steal of a price and it is in near new condition thanks to an owner who spent a lot of time keeping her in the best of shape. All the wood looks like brand new and the tiller is a piece of art ... I will post some pictures when I figure that out. I finally stepped the mast and hoisted the sails today. I need a few minor things from West Marine and I haven't quite figured out how the main sheet is suppose to work/hook up ... any details or detailed pictures would be most appreciated. I will be sailing this boat out of Rye Harbor NH ... anyone close to me? Did I mention how excited I am?

Dave,
Welcome and congrats on getting a very great boat.  Don't forget to register your boat data on the register  thread. 


We have an 1983 CP-16 and have the owners manual.  If you send me your email I will send a copy of the page with the mainsheet routing.  That is what you need right?

Again, great boat and a great bunch of folks here on this forum to answer your questions or just chat.
Happy and smooth sailing.

We are located in SE Wisconsin.

Good sailing

Hey, Dave.
I sail on Massabesic Lake in Auburn, near Manchester.  I also have a 1980 but have updated the mainsheet hardware.  If you send a pic I'm sure we can sort it out.

If you ever feel like some lake sailing let me know.
Carol.
