Get one of those little stoves that restaurants use for heating things at the table. I am afraid you may be disappointed with the Corinthians. I have heard that most of them have big fast cruisers….. I am staying with PHRF just because. I’ll check after the Annapolis to St. Michaels race and see how it works out.
Gary 30-1, St. Michaels From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Doug Ellmore via CnC-List Sent: Friday, April 14, 2017 12:16 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Doug Ellmore <d...@ellmore.net> Subject: Stus-List racing a C&C 24 I am making adjustments to my C&C 24 to optimize for racing. Chesapeake PHRF rules states for the for the Corinthian class: "All normally installed equipment including doors, tables, stoves, head equipment, floorboards, cushions, etc. must be carried in their normal position while sailing" I remove the older non-working head yesterday and put in place a 2.5 gal portable head. I closed and capped the through hulls, too. I can add water to the head from the bay when we need to flush. The C&C 24 came with a little 2 burner Coleman style propane stove. I don't plan to cook much on her. But, I would like a good approach to heat water for freezer bag food and beverages. I have pulled out the cushions, but plan to put in a lighter approach for overnight racing. Either a freshly made lighter weight 1/4" plywood platform that can be used with an air matress or experiment with a rigging two hammocks for night watch bunks. I figure one end of the hammock could be supported by the internal mast. Any suggestions on stove or rigging hammocks? -- Doug Ellmore, Sr. s/v Red Sky, 1976 C&C 24 d...@ellmore.net <mailto:d...@ellmore.net>
