to me

Good Morning Joe…

Squadron Yachts used two sizes of these fittings in the Scout and they fit 5/8 and 3/4 rigid copper tubing.

They were used throughout the boat to drain the cockpit areas, corners in the seating area where water would collect and the lockers under the hatch covers. 

In many situations, rigid copper would connect two or more of these fittings and a hose would connect them to a thru hull.

I checked out the King-Gage…nothing there.

Thanks for your interest,

Phil Lawrence

H-18 Catboat ......

to me

I Hi Joe,
 
I just purchased an H-18 locally and will pick up the boat next week.  Very thrilled with the boat.  Needs restored, will be my retirement project when I retire.  Information on the boat is not readily available, so thought you might be able to send me in the correct direction with your knowledge:
 
 
Is any one making spare parts for the boat.  Found 1 E-mail that said that someone had purchased the molds but did not provide the new owners name.  I did locate the OEM sail maker.
 
 
Do you have any idea who may have supplied the navigation lanterns as seen on the brochure  and also one of the boats in the pictures.  Would be a really nice addition to the boat.
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks

Congratulations on your Purchase of a H-18 . Nauset Marine , MA  - was the last company to build the Pilot & American model ????  What is the VIN # of your new Pilot or American ?

Somewhere around 1976 the “America” was available in a special “Bicentennial” model. It had some extra fancy woodwork and real working oil navigation lights. Not sure if they were offered after this – but I’d bet the lanterns Mr. Cole speaks of in the catalog are these. I do not believe these are Coast Guard compliant as navigation lights any longer – so while they are neat to look at they are probably not functional - though you could electrify them easy enough. They were probably made by Den Haan's, Perko, or W&P or somesuch – probably can still find them if you search the web…

Here is a picture - Note lanterns:

New owner of a Herreshoff 18 has found the Registry and will be posting up pictures and a story of his launch or fisherman model, will have to see where the Console Is located !

James Reid

to me

Hi Joe. it's James Reid.  As you know I own the Herreshoff Scout "Freebird" pictured on the registry.  Hopefully you can help me.  I would like to get a bendable mast for both my main and mizen mast to replace the fixed ones I have.  Any suggestions?  Has this been done before?  Is it a major task?  I"ll have to do this or sell my boat.  Thanks for all your help and knowledge.  Did you ever sell your Harbor Pilot (the Red One)?

The folded mast - or Tabernacle Mast - can be done on HA's but not sure on the Scout. Marshall Marine offers to do it professionally for HA’s as it's an option on their Sanderling Catboat (the rig is pretty much interchangeable between both boats).  See:

http://www.marshallcat.com/html/tabernacle_mast1.html

I'd give them a call and see if they could do the mods.
