One thing I may borrow from the J35s - they have a piece of teak about 1
inch square bolted to the inboard edge of the seats as a cleat to make it
easier to get on the rail.  They are low enough that you can sit on them.

The j109 that I race on frequently has two strips of plastic(?) 1/2in x 1/2 in 
x 12 inches that are glassed to the cockpit sole behind the wheel - in just the 
right spot to stop foot slide when sitting with the wheel between ones leg ( 
the forward foot is placed on the pedistal). They do not seem to get in the way 
when standing behind the wheel when going downwind

Re: Stus-List Where do you sit to drive the C&C 30mk1?

2013-05-31 Thread Dennis C.
On Touche' I sit where the Admiral tells me to.  :)

Not that familiar with the 30 but Touche' came with a 28 inch wheel.  Early on 
I changed it to a 32 inch wheel.  

When we got serious about racing, I changed to a 36 inch wheel so the driver 
could sit outboard on the cockpit coaming.

My usual driver sits on the low side because the view of the telltales is 
better on the 35-1.

It varies. On windward legs, light to moderate winds, on stern cockpit coaming, 
leeward, where I get a good view of the genoa telltales. Sometime on the on the 
cockpit seat, forward of the helm, same view. When it's blowing, on cockpit 
seat, wind ward side, where I can control the main traveller easily to de-power 
the main in gusts.
Downwind, behind the wheel, on the stern coaming. On longer passages, the 
windvane is steering. I sit everywhere.

Re: Stus-List Buccaneer 18

Rick, 
Thanks so much for the nice reply on the Buccaneer 18. She sounds like 
everything I imagined. 
Some boats just look right for what they were designed and built for. The Buc 
looked right to my eye. Nice to hear the class is still going strong.

Subject: Re: Stus-List No Messages - now Buccaneer 18 




The Buccaneer 18 - not to be confused with one of those Bayliner atrocities 
that is best put out of its misery at the first opportunity – is a stone hoot 
to sail. It is a planning hull so it isn’t uncommon to be doing 12 or 13 knots 
off the wind in 8 to 10 knots of breeze. All up in racing trim, to be class 
legal a boat cannot weigh less than something like 510 poinds. Very nimble, and 
responsive to crew performance. 



The jib is on a roller (there are several iterations, but the preferred version 
seems to be a Harken small boat furler) and the spin launches from a “snout” in 
the foredeck and gets sucked back through the snout and into a storage tube 
below the foredeck and port side deck by a dousing line attached to the center 
of the chute. So sail handling is reasonably easy. The cockpit is long and 
narrow – and you can’t really use the aft 1/3 or so of the cockpit because of 
the need to keep crew weight centered in the boat. It is a pretty athletic 
boat, with the centerboard trunk and lines in the way of the crew, and a pretty 
low boom and vang. 



I mostly crew on a buddies boat, though I did race his second boat one year to 
5 th or 6 th place in the B division of the Buccaneer nationals. It was really 
fun to be in a one design class race with about 30 competitors. The people in 
the class association are very friendly and helpful – and are spread out over 
the country. The boat has been in production since the first Chrysler boats in 
the late 60s/early 70s. Current boats produced by Nichols have sail numbers in 
the mid-5000 range, but I think there are some gaps in hull numbers between the 
various manufacturers. You can probably find one pretty inexpensive, and the 
folks on the list will help you fix it up. I think there are one or two already 
restored/upgraded that are for sale by Bucc group members. 



One of the things I likes was the camaraderie of the group. Most camp out at 
regattas and the parties are pretty awesome. There is a get together in Alabama 
in the winter that is a beach launched regatta, but mostly for the purpose of 
having fun. It is a great group of people, a lot like the C&C owners on our 
list, but more gregarious. 



Now, all that said, when I decided to buy a dinghy to add to my fleet I bought 
a Tanzer 16. Wider cockpit, higher boom, better suited for old fat guys like 
myself. Not as fast as a Bucc, but a lot of fun to sail and well suited to a 
more leisurely Saturday afternoon sail.

Hi Rick, 
What's it like to sail a Buccaneer? I always liked that design. Looks roomy. 
Real shallow draft when centerboard tucks up inside. I found a couple locally 
for sail, but they were really beat up and neglected. Good boat?

Re: Stus-List C&C 30 Spreader to deck measurement (lazy jacks)

2013-05-31 Thread Marek Dziedzic
I had a set of lazy jacks on my past C&C 24 and the only time the top of the 
main sail got snagged when raising the sail was when I was trying doing it in 
somewhat stiffer wind and not directly head to wind (which you are not supposed 
to do in the first place). With any cross wind the head of the main obviously 
goes off centre, but even worse, the lazy jacks are blown over the centre line 
and try finding the head of the main to snag it.

If you are head to wind, no issues.

Granted, on a 24 I was dealing with shorter mast and smaller main, but I cannot 
imagine that the mechanics of the lazy jacks on a bigger boat would be that 
different.

Re: Stus-List C&C30 MK1 racing abilitys

2013-05-31 Thread Gary Nylander
You have one of the stiffest boats C&C ever built. It will go well in light air 
with the 155 up to about 18 apparent (or so). It is good through waves, but 
gets stopped when they are steep and choppy in light stuff. It sails well in 
medium air and handles the heavier stuff pretty well, just get to a smaller jib 
and a reef in the main. The boat is driven mostly by the genoa. Depending on 
your local rules, the 170 may not be able to be used without penalty. 

It is best sailed with about 15 degrees of heel in your 14 knot stuff (flat 
bottom toward the back - needs to get a little on its side). There's debate 
about whether to reef the main first or go to the smaller genoa - I prefer the 
genoa change but have a dual track forestay, so that's easy. You don't want to 
get it too far over, because the rudder is not all that deep and you will get a 
lot of weather helm and it will slow you down. It is fun with the rail in the 
water, but not fast.

>From the serial number, it looks like you have a 1981 model, hull number 675 - 
>mine is 1980, number 593, but with a 2QM raw water cooled Yanmar. Yours looks

One thing to do is keep the stern out of the water - move your crew forward.

You didn't mention if the rig has been changed to bring the lines back to the 
cockpit, if so, then it is more important to chase the crew forward. You also 
didn't say whether there are inboard jib tracks, adjustable backstay, etc. The 
boat will point better if you can get the jib clew off the rail, if the 
previous owner didn't install inboard tracks, think about it.

However, it does not reach well if you sheet it inboard - I use outhauls to get 
the jib lead back to the rail when reaching and it makes a difference.

There are a number of 30-1's on the list, and the folks who have them are 
pretty knowledgeable, so keep asking questions. It is a fun boat which will 
handle just about anything you can stand - one has crossed the Atlantic!!

took a plug from some repair I had done to the local paint store to get a 
perfect match.  Get their applicator roller, it's well worth it.  Clean, light 
sanding and masking took more time than the application.  We saw her last 
weekend when we were in Olympia and the deck still looks new 2 years later.

Here's what it looked like.

I used the colour-matching computer where I work and tinted up a batch of
Kiwi Grip to match the gelcoat. I haven't applied it yet, but when I tried
a bit on a hunk of boat I had lying around (from cutting out the opening
for the opening port over the galley sink) it disappeared. Looks like a
perfect match, but close is good enough; the KG will appear darker because
of texture, which is what I wanted. I can post the colorant mix if anyone
wants to tint to mid-80's deck colour.

Stus-List C&C30 MK1 racing abilitys

2013-05-31 Thread Curtis
C&C 30 MK1  1981 all hank on yanmar 2gm. ZCC30675M81E

This is a new boat to me. I was wondering if I could get some feed back as
to the general sailing ability of this boat. Like its ability in light,
Moderate and heavy winds. How she is best sailed ect. The boat came with a
Standard main and a reefing 115, A 135% a 155% a 170% and a Asymmetrical in
a dousing sock. I was out this past weekend and was able to see 5.8 to 6.4
with 14 knot winds using the 115%.
  Please keep in mind I am new at the big boat thing. My experience came
form 30 years ago using the hobi-cat rigg

So any help in how to best sail her or your experience with
its ability's and shore comings would be greatly appreciated. I sail the
south Atlantic oceans and rivers so I mostly have light southerly winds.

Thanks again for your help and input.
CAPT, Burt

Had a yard do my almost all meydeck with Kiwi this spring--looks great and the 
grip was enhanced forward of the mast for spinnaker work,eased somewhat aft for 
sitting, by the rolling technique.

Yard guys had not worked with it before but liked it--plus it will go over 
whatever is there now without much if any surface preparation. I probably could 
have done the job myself and would
certainly touch it up in the future should it need it.

It is pretty rough on bare knees now in the cockpit but I expect it to smooth 
out somewhat with use. My guess is that it is easier to make Kiwi aggressive 
than to make it less so--its all in the roller and the rolling technique.

So far, so good.

Re: Stus-List C&C 115 turnbuckle update

2013-05-31 Thread Hoyt, Mike
Rick
 
Cannot find any images so wikll try to explain.
 
The threaded stud is attached to the chainplate and feeds up to a
cylinder that is approx 8 inches long.  This cylinder is permanently
attached to end of the rod but swivels on the rod.  To adjust you put a
wrench on this cyliner and turn it.  To lock this cylinder there are set
screws inset in it.  These set screws tend to rust over time and the
allen keey head of set screw becomes distorted or else the screws rust
or whatever in place.  This makes turning the cylinder (turnbuckle) very
difficult to impossible and necessitates drilling out the set screw
which then makes it impossible to pin the turnbuckle so it constantly
needs adjusting over the season to keep the rig tune.  This is
particularly aggravating when you are stepping or unstepping the mast
and one of the turnbuckles will not turn at all!

These center pin turnbuckles are the only style I can recall ever seeing

Koobalibra is now in for the summer with mast up and the revised
turnbuckle system is in place. North Sails in Halifax coldwelded new
ends on the existing rod rigging for the six shrouds using the system
shown in the link above.  Essentially is a barrell on end of shroud and
on deck and a stud (for lack of better term) screws into these barrells.
Is almost the opposite of the open turnbuckle system used on many boats.

 

To adjust a flat head screw driver is inserted in the slot of the
barrell on end of the rod and a open wrench turns the stud. Is very
simple to adjust and an absolute dream compared to the original system.

 

The boat looks fabulous BTW with its new paint job.

Re: Stus-List non-skid paint

2013-05-31 Thread Hoyt, Mike
To avoid this tape off the same area that was taped before.  The
contrast from smooth gelcoat to non skid area usually makes a slight
difference in shade appealing to the eye.

Kiwi grip is much gripper than Interlux Interdeck from what I have
heard.  Also have been told that season one with kiwi grip is very rough
on knees etc if on foredeck for example but gets nicer by year two.
Interdeck has a very fine grip (sand) so is easier on the body but not
as good for grip.  Both can be applied directly over existing
gelcoatnonskid with no primer.  You could prep and paint the cockpit
sole in an afternoon using Interdeck.

One alternative from Interlux is to use Brightsdides paint and add the
non skid additive and possibly flattening agent.  This gives you more
range of colours than Interdeck and is same thing.  

See this link for our previous boat done using Interlux Perfection Off
White with non skid additive and flattening agent.  Touch ups when gear
moved etc with Interlux Brightsides Off White with additive and
flattener - perfect match (note these are on googlepages and will ask if
you want to download)

A close match will always look like a repair. My tip, is that when you 
can't get an exact match, use contrast instead. That doesn't mean 
extreme opposite, it just means use a color that doesn't look like a 
failed attempt at a match. Maybe a very light gray. For the cockpit 
sole, I would probably also investigate some of the various materials 
that could be applied over the surface, such as plasdeck, or those 
interlocking rubber mats which are removable.

We needed a boat with more headroom and storage than our Rhodes 22
because we enjoyed that boat so much we knew we wanted to overnight/take
trips more. (So bigger than 22)

We needed to be able to handle it with 2 of us. (Don't know the
realistic upper limit but we didn't look over 39 or so)

We wanted more sleeping space for ourselves and a bit if we brought
anyone who would be in to sleeping aboard. (Depends on the boat and the
passenger for that one. You can actually sleep 6 of people on a Rhodes
22. Not kidding)

Hot water. (Not specific to length but more than 22)

Real head. (See above)

Stove and fridge. (See above)

Well built. Not specific to length at all. 

And...I won't say our price limit but we bought a 1986 35 mk III. 

We don't race but we do like to get where we're going. She's a goer. And
a nice clean yanmar more than made up for the fact that the main isn't
IMF like the Rhodes was. 

We sold the Rhodes with a clear conscience. She was not any form of
lemon. But neither is the C&C and its easier to live on, with 2 or with
more.

experience. There are always bigger, better, faster and fancier boats
out there, but you won't really know what you want/need until you have
tried a couple.

One of my crew is looking for a boat, his first.  I sent

Bridge clearance- friend of mine has a nice big boat
that can't get under several critical bridges leading to some prime
sailing.  Touche' is even too tall to get under some bridges where we
sail
How are the shrouds attached?  Most C&C's carry the
shroud load to the hull.  Many boats carry the load to a bulkhead.  I
don't like that.
Keel - fin, bulb, shoal, wing, full, centerboard, dagger
board
Anchor locker on foredeck?
Fold down, pedestal or mast dinette table

Split lower shrouds vs inline shrouds
Straight vs swept back spreaders?
Baby stay?

Diesel vs gas?
Folding or fixed prop?

Head?  Shower?
Tiller vs wheel?
Propane stove?
Mast head vs fractional?  If I was looking for a race
boat today, I'd go fractional
Traveler location?  End boom, bridgedeck, cabintop?
Big cockpit for entertaining?
Straight drive vs V-drive?
Fiberglass vs holly/teak sole?
Opening ports?
Sugar scoop transom, stern ladder, opening
Fiberglass headliner vs vinyl headliner



The list goes on and on.


When I was shopping for my first boat, I was pretty
ignorant.  I wanted a wheel, diesel and shower.  Result?  First boat - 0
for 3.  Second boat had a wheel.  :)

Re: Stus-List C&C 115 turnbuckle update

2013-05-31 Thread Rick Brass
Mike,

 

I'm curious. What did the original turnbuckles look like? 

 

These center pin turnbuckles are the only style I can recall ever seeing on
rod rigging.

Koobalibra is now in for the summer with mast up and the revised turnbuckle
system is in place. North Sails in Halifax coldwelded new ends on the
existing rod rigging for the six shrouds using the system shown in the link
above.  Essentially is a barrell on end of shroud and on deck and a stud
(for lack of better term) screws into these barrells.  Is almost the
opposite of the open turnbuckle system used on many boats.

 

To adjust a flat head screw driver is inserted in the slot of the barrell on
end of the rod and a open wrench turns the stud. Is very simple to adjust
and an absolute dream compared to the original system.

 

The boat looks fabulous BTW with its new paint job.

Re: Stus-List non-skid paint

2013-05-31 Thread David Drake
I used Kiwi Grip  when I redid my entire deck .Three seasons later it still 
looks great .You have control of the amount of grip during application .I left 
the cockpit seating a little on the smooth side so that it was ,more 
comfortable  to sit on ,the cockpit sole and fore deck I put a much more 
agressive grit .You can control the grit by your roller technique and by 
leaving the coating to setup a little bit before you give it a final go with 
the roller.
I also have done 4 J 24s in our sailing school fleet and they have held up very 
well and are easy to clean .
I would highly recommend doing a couple of practise surfaces first to develope 
your desired grit

Re: Stus-List Chesapeake Rendezvous - Reasonably priced transient slip

2013-05-31 Thread Rick Brass
I'm planning the logistics for my cruise to the Chesapeake and attending the
rendezvous at CRYC. But I will need to drop the boat for about three weeks
and return home in early July. 

 

I plan to leave the boat around June 28th, and return on July 22nd or 23rd
to do the Baltimore Light race on July 27th and attend the C&C Owners
rendezvous at CRYC, so I'm looking for a spot for the boat that is within
reach of Baltimore and offers some cruising opportunities in the area.
Something in the area between Solomons and Baltimore would seem practical.

 

Can anyone give me a recommendation on a marina, club, or private dock that
would be reasonably priced for a three week stay and also fairly accessible
to transportation for the trip home?

 

Thanks

Re: Stus-List non-skid paint

2013-05-31 Thread Joel Aronson
Jake,

I considered it on my Pearson but was not confident in my skills, so I went
with Interlux paint.  With the pedestal etc. I'm not going to try.

One thing I may borrow from the J35s - they have a piece of teak about 1
inch square bolted to the inboard edge of the seats as a cleat to make it
easier to get on the rail.  They are low enough that you can sit on them.
 When I'm in Bacon's I'll rummage in the back for some teak.  I also want
to make a fiddle for the nav table.  I forget to clean it off.  One tack
and everything slides off.

Joel,

 

I have often thought of using the Plasteak for the cockpit sole and the
seating areas. It looks good and will make a good non-skid area as well.  My
only concern would be with the heat of summer that I couldn't go barefoot
anymore.  My non-skid is pretty smooth at the helm.  I thought a teak block
or two might help, but I didn't want any more toe-stubbers in the cockpit
either!

Joel,

You ain't gonna like my opinion.

Rent a gelcoat color book from fibreglast.com, $5.  Match the color and
order a gallon of tinted gelcoat.  Double-tape the cockpit sole.  Mix up the
gelcoat with some colloidal silica and roll it on with a resin resistant
roller.  Finish by rolling in one direction.  Wait until the gelcoat begins
to harden a bit and pull the tape.

Voila!  Factory non-skid.

It really is that easy.

Re: Stus-List non-skid paint

2013-05-31 Thread Bill Bina
A close match will always look like a repair. My tip, is that when you 
can't get an exact match, use contrast instead. That doesn't mean 
extreme opposite, it just means use a color that doesn't look like a 
failed attempt at a match. Maybe a very light gray. For the cockpit 
sole, I would probably also investigate some of the various materials 
that could be applied over the surface, such as plasdeck, or those 
interlocking rubber mats which are removable.
