Hi everyone, I'm in process of buying a 1980 CHB, and the port tank is no longer in use and needs replacing. The boat comes with two new plastic fuel tanks, not yet installed. I've been reading many posts about cutting out the steel tanks, but I'm wondering how the plastic tanks go back in...

This sounds great!!! Sadly I do not have my boat quite yet, but hope to soon. We were just up that way - Iselton to be exact - to look at her. Keep us posted as we might drive up and say hi at any of your stops!

Hi all, I put an offer down on a 34' CHB yesterday and my offer was just accepted! Survey and sea trial to happen soon, and then after a bottom job she'll come down to Berkeley! I'm really happy that this forum exists...I will have a whole lot of questions very soon. Christopher

I'm new here too, and in Berkeley! (waves hi)

All really fascinating info, thank you all! OH!!! I just got word that my offer on the trawler was accepted!!! Contingent on survey and sea trial soon. Maybe I'll sew up a simple canvas sail to try out on her. If nothing else it could look cool...although I agree that the boom might turn out...

All great info, thanks! And thanks for the welcome too! What was throwing me off is that the mast and boom have slots for a sail (probably the most available sort to get their hands on and install?) and the boom is rigged with a mainsheet seemingly for sailing instead of lifting, and isn't long...

Hi there - I just made an offer on a 34' CHB, my first trawler! While aboard I couldn't help noticing it has a mast and boom, but I can't find much info on using a sail on this boat out there. So I decided I should ask all of you here who know a great deal more about trawlers...so thanks in...
