Thanks so much! So is that the cockpit scupper or the sink drain just up and to the left?

Thanks again! This really helps.

Hi Gentlemen!

Forgive me for piggy-backing on to your conversation, but I have a 1967 Renegade that I am trying to sort out the plumbing on for my bilge pump. There was not one installed when I acquired her last year, so I don't have any prior plumbing to go by. I was wondering if you folks or anyone else that may see this post would know if the Renegade plumbed her bilge discharge hose the same way (i.e.; running into the port cockpit scupper drain tube along with the sink drain, which mine also does.)?  If so, can you tell me where the bilge hose connects? Meaning, does bilge discharge hose connect to the 'Y' connector with the sink drain, and then the outlet of the 'Y' connect directly to the port cockpit drain tube? or is there a short hose from the 'Y' connector outlet to another 'T' into the cockpit drain tube?

Thanks for any insights!

Kevin

Hi there Admin!

Any chance of getting a model category set-up for the Renegade? 

Thanks for your work for all of us in maintaining the site!

  Greetings and thanks for the welcome. Yes I hope that some other Renegade owners come forward. She seems like a very well built and sturdy little yacht. I am very much looking forward to sailing her on our local lakes and reservoirs. You are definitely right about the winds here in the mountains though! They can come up in a blink and change directions just as fast. Well I can always use more practice reefing!
Glad to be aboard and really liking this Pearson community. Looks like lots of great folks on here with some very nice yachts. Love the classic plastic. Thank you for the snip from Practical Sailor. I also have the review from "This Old Boat". Good positive write-ups.

Here we are high in the Cascades on our way to Vayu's new home port in Montana.

Greetings all! I am brand new to the forum and very grateful to have found it. I am the proud new owner of Vayu, a 1967 27' Renegade, #107. Hope you kind folks don't mind us odd balls joining in. I see most of the folks here have the 323's (a mighty fine yacht from what I am reading here). I am very impressed with the workmanship and durability of the Pearsons they seem very well built and crafted with quality materials. Mine was very well maintained by her previous owners so I don't have any major work to do off the bat, which is good. Her old home was out in the Puget Sound/San Juan, area so she has been a salt water gal for most of her life. She'll now be sailing the smaller freshwater lakes of Montana for the near future anyway. My previous boat was a Victory 21' so I am looking forward to the extra space in Vayu. I know she's only 27', but she seems huge to me right now. I'm sure I'll need lots of help with maintaining her and I'll have a bunch of questions, so I ask for your patience with this newbie. Does anyone know if there are any other Renegade owners on the forum? Thanks again to all who manage, participate, and support this site and forum, it is a great resource.

Hi Sawduster;

I know you posted this about a year ago, but I was wondering, (and hoping), if you got her all put back together?
