We would like to replace our Elvström "Genesis" main sail and buy a new Elvström Epex main sail with square head.

Which material category (20.000 up to 25.000 dpi) would you recommend/suggest for the DF 800 Cruiser. Thanks a lot in advance !

I bought 2 new trampolines for my DF 800 at Quorning. The old trampolines are used but in good condition generally. So if you are interested in them just send me an email

After searching the web I found a kind of very special plastic paint in colour white in Germany and after grinding all parts I painted the curbing rips last weekend. To be very honest, I'm really satisfied with the result, the parts look as new. If you are interested I'd upload pictures, unfortunate...

We removed all stripes, to be very honest, it was really hard work ;-( and we spent many hours spare time. Afterwards we produced 1:1 stripes with a 3M foil. The colour was 3M Scotchcard 100-176 originally, but we took 3M Scotchcard 100-tomatored. Don't hesitate to contact me if you need any further...

Hello Vepo, did you find the requested material ? After investigation I found a source for similar washboards/curbing rips, a little smaller but in colour white. If you're still interested just send me an email for details.

It would be great if you could help me to solve a problem ........ I would like to change all my trim strips/stickers from our DF 800 in the same sizes but in another colour. Therefore the print shop/office would need a pdf file to create the new stickers very urgent. Do you have such a pdf file or ...

Hello Vepo,

yes, these lists are mounted on my DF 800, hull number 272 but I would like to change them as well cause to UV light damages. I'll try to find a delivery source until spring 2014.

Kind regards

Michael

I was just informed by Quorning that the former "niro steel bracket" isn't available any more. Therefore a picture (sent to adshanta (et) yahoo.de) would be very well appreciated
Thanks a Lot !

Hi Phil,

thanks a lot for this information, I'll ask for more details at the Raytheon importer, as Raytheon is the new owner of Tacktik.

Kind regards from Austria

Dear colleagues, who has experiences with a wind measuring system for the DF 800 ? I guess that the rotating mast prevents to use a standard Raytheon wind instrument and it wouldn't work, right ? How did you solve this problem ? Which brand and kind of wind measuring system do you use on your DF 800...

Has nobody any idea for solving this problem? Lifting-eyes at my DF800SW (1996) would also help me a lot when liftind the boat. regards & thanks Sepp My boot is a DF800SW 1991 Front Lifting Eyes: I understand the bolt on the front hinge (on the hull side) needs to be replaced with a forged lift...

Thanks, I now understand quorning do a stainless bracket for 188 euros + vat and post, think I'm going to go with a DIY wooden one. Am afraid I'm unable to upload the photo I got of the bracket. kind regards, Humphrey Who has pictures of the stainless steel bracket for the autopilot as mentioned by...

Dear colleagues, I'm interested in buying a bowsprit (for a roll gennaker) for the DF 800 SW. Which product do you suggest and would it be easy to assembly this part ? Is there (as an alternative) a possibility to combine the bowsprit with an anchor as well ? Further on I would be interesting if the...
