Changing from Hydraulic steering to Edson wire steering

I am considering making this change.  If any Rasmus owners have done this I would love to hear from you.  What Edson parts does it take to make the change and about how much will it cost?

Anchoring system help

I am getting ready to bolt on my windlass and mount the anchor platform on the Rasmus.  I would love to hear from Rasmus owners your opinions on how to best set the system up (where to mount the windlass, where to store the chain, etc.).

Which engine for the Rasmus?



It needs an engine

 Ok, I am in my fourth year of rebuilding this Rasmus and I am about to order a new ENGINE.  Any thoughts from you Rasmus owners out there on the PERFECT engine for this boat.
