Well I have the honor to fill the really big shoes of Arlyn as I take on the role of C250 Mainsheet Technical Editor. As I wrote to the Commodore and the Board, I see my role as a facilitator, gatherer and coordinator of the wealth of talent and expertise that you all have.

So, here is a starting list of ideas for my first article:

-Paul and Steve's work on beefing up the water ballast tank
-Tom and others' work on making the C250 better for single-handing
-Converting trailer brakes for drum to disk
-LED mast lights and other battery saving ideas
-Setting up a C250 for quick launch and retrieval
-Setting up a C250 for cruising
-The many uses of Stainless Steel on a C250

So, help me out here. Please add new ideas and any other thoughts that you have on this. Thanks!

How about some electrical work, such as adding a 2nd battery or something about solar panels?
