Reply to: Referbing Hobie 18 Thread

[quote=DamonLinkous][quote=goodsailing] I wonder why there's a spare one in there running around as all the cleats have them? [/quote] Someone might have lost one in there and didn't want to drill the end caps off again so just left it. When you are dealing with 40 years of boat history you never know what went on. For your Hobie 18 repair project pictures, feel free to create albums in the Beachcat Technical album. Give each album descriptive titles like "Hobie 18 Boom Rebuild" etc. to help the next guy. Instructions are in my signature and here. [url]http://www.thebeachcats.com/faq/Photo%20Gallery/how-do-i-upload-photos/[/url] Let me know if you have trouble. One thing these days is that although there is no specified limit for the size of the the pictures you upload, they will be re-sized after upload, pictures straight out of a camera these days can be over 4,000 pixels wide and several megabytes each. So if you can learn how to resize you pics down to 1600 max pixels everything will go more smoothly. I use a good free tool for quick resizes, [url]http://www.irfanview.com/[/url] it even does batch resizes and renames the resulting files. That way you can change a bunch of images from 3mb files with names like img3232323.jpg to 300k files with descriptive names like mast-rebuild-1.jpg, mast-rebuild-2.jpg etc. Makes it a lot easier on you when you need to find the files later on your computer.[/quote]
