Sitting on the centerboard trunk to row can't be very comfortable, but I guess it gets you back home if there's no wind.by terrynauck - sailmfg
I just purchased a Minnkota Riptide 45/SC electric trolling motor for my Challenger 15. It has a 36" shaft and puts out 45# of thrust at top speed. It's powered by a Group 27 12V deep cycle marine battery located in the bow. I tested it on a local lake this week and it performed very well. Pictures of the boat before and after motor installation are attached. Installation of the adaptorby terrynauck - sailmfg
Bill, I'll email you some pictures of my Challenger 15 since I can't figure out how to upload them to this forum. Hope you'll find them helpful. Terry Nauckby terrynauck - sailmfg
George, Thanks for the information on roller reeling. I had always wondered why there was a spring in the gooseneck. I'll have to give it a try next time I go out. As for the spinnaker, I may let that idea jell awhile longer. A local sail maker told me he could make a spinnaker for it if I wanted to go to he trouble of modifying the rigging to sail it. Thanks again for your advice.by terrynauck - sailmfg
Hello George, My name is Terry Nauck and I own Challenger 15, # 295. I bought it from a lady in West Bloomfield, Michigan who had two of them and brought it down to Cleveland, Ohio. I cleaned it up, refinished all the woodwork and upgraded all the hardware. I was excited to see that the boat originally had a spinnaker and provision for reefing the main. I can send you pictures if you're inby terrynauck - sailmfg
