      It is probably too late but I have a Kemp one made for the 2021 season

        Hi Jonathan,

        If you check in with the ‘anode outlet’ online they have instructions on how to do it. I used the person who serviced my engine, it took him 5 mins to change the wiring for me. Hopefully my small prop anode on the saildrive, will be in much better shape this year.

          Thanks Bob,

          Yesterday I scanned all the various sources and found that the depths available did not seem to deep enough to fill the space between the deck and headliner of the inside. Did you have the same problem and if so how did you fix?

            Hi Jonathan are you sure the anode has been wired up correctly? I had  mine checked a few weeks ago and found out that all the wiring was incorrect.

              Hi James,

              I have a 2001 34. I had some leaks around the windows and simply bent the hooks for the catch down a little bit with some pliers so they shut tighter. Now no problem.

              Hope you get it sorted , Peter

                Hi Dave,
                I had a reply from the commodore if I remember suggesting that for the 34 a 4 meter one would be good. I have to admit to not having bought one yet but I am having my rigger visit me in a few weeks to assess how best to set up, ditto with a cruising chute.
                I reached out to a number of manufacturers including Forespar in the States and the general advice was for a length between 4.0 to 5.4 meters, telescopic.

                My hunch is that the ideal place to store would be on the mast given that Bavaria stanchions are not that robust and might struggle in bigger seas.

                Sorry not to be more constructive but happy to chat further on the phone if you want to.

                Regards

                Peter

                  Thanks Bob , I will check this out. Though there are no signs of leaks from the forward hatch. Peter

                    I have a leak in the forward bulkhead just behind the anchor locker in my 2001 Bavaria 34, which dampens the forward part of the cushions. I have sealed the anchor locker and resealed toe rails but with no effect. Does anyone have any ideas of where I should look next? Leaking mast? thanks, Peter
