Oceanis 43 new member

Hello,

I have just joined your group. I have an OCEANIS 43 hull n° 77 built in France. Hibernia is in the Med Coast of Spain.

I would like to exchange topics with all of you.

Welcome. I have a B 43, hull#9, made in South Carolina. It is berthed on the Gulf Coast of the US, near Houston Tx.

Hey Denis, where do you keep Hibernia in Spain? I grew up sailing in Costa Brava. That area is the best kept secret in cruising in the Med!

hi,

thank you for the greetings. i am in the bay of Rosas in a marina.

Hibernia will soon be pulled out of the water for paint and some improvements : Mastervolt alternator, batteries and converter. An arch with davits will be installed. If some money is left I will go for a watermaker. If you have ideas about this or about other subjects I will be happy. I am also very interested about the rudder and autopilot support problems. If you have a notice from Beneteau about this it would help me a lot.

Denis

Crossing Biscay With A Following Sea And 20kt Wind, We heard Graunching Sounds From The Auto Pilot, And Saw That There Was some Movement Where It Was Supported On A Wooden Platfrom, Because It's,  Wooden Tightening The Bolts Squeezed The Wood, We Have Put In Two More Bolts But Are Still A Bit Nervous About Its Strength, Any one Any Thoughts Or Similar Experience ?

You get her in the middle of May, that's very good. Don't forget to share pictures when you get her.

Foster, I would like to know more about the arch you plan on installing. Is it acustom design from a local company or who supplied it?

Hi Denis
I have the only 43 in NZ with Hull 125 x Europe. I was thinking about an arch and would love a few more pics of yours showing some more detail, if you don't mind. Yours looks very cool.

Thanks and good sailing
Gavin
