Re: Stus-List wire halyards

2013-12-04 Thread Russ & Melody

Hi Steve,

In the quest for speed it means constantly trying to improve power to 
weight ratio as well as lowering drag, maintaining sail shape, etc.


AG, a vintage 1981 45 from the custom yard has aluminium chainplates 
and chainplate bolts, but here's the best part... the chainplate 
bolts are drilled hollow to save weight! This is below-decks weight savings.


Cheers, Russ

The shroud tang through bolt at the spreaders on my boat is stainless.

Interestingly, I was talking to people at NE Rigging Systems in Concord, MA
just yesterday about replacing the rod on my 1983 C&C35 MK III and they told
me about this issue. Apparently C&C changed from aluminum through bolts
(through the mast holding the rod connection fittings) in the late 80's to
SST through bolts because the internal wire halyards would cut through the
aluminum bolts over time. They just did a C&C 40 and found that the aluminum
bolts were almost completely cut through.

John, the Barient 22s have got my attention. My mkV came with 18s and I find 
them slightly under powered when I'm in the "should be putting up the 100" 
zone. I happen to have a couple of Barient 10s sitting around that I was going 
to add to the cabin top arrangement. One unfortunately has a crack in the 
uppermost portion but the other is perfect. They are 1984 black ones of 
whatever Dwarfian material they are made of. Let me know what you want for the 
22s. 

Are they 2 speed?

Re: Stus-List [SPAM]Re: Barient# 10 winch

2013-12-04 Thread John Russo
Paul,

 

Thanks for the heads up. If they are in Good condition as they appear in the
photo I would be interested if the Drum diameter at the bottom measures
4-5/8" and the overall height is 3-3/4" . I only need one and am trying to
match what I presently have on the port cabin top. I find that the Barient
#10 came in many different sizes not counting the 10P which is the smallest
of the bunch.

 

Thanks in advance for your efforts in my behalf.

Re: Stus-List 30 MKI weather helm

I owned a C&C 30 mk 1 for about 13 years, and raced her from about 1973 to 
1986. I  also found that it was a very stiff boat and rarely had to reef and 
only occasionally had to fly a # 2 headsail.
In those days, we all raced with a 170% genoa, since the boats were designed 
for the CCA rule, and PHRF had not yet dictated 155 % for the norm. Later I 
downsized to the 155%, and got the appropriate rating improvement.

Two things that have not been mentioned, that will affect the weather helm are:
If your 30 MK 1 has a wheel instead of a tiller, it will have more weather 
helm, due to the extra weight in the stern.
The rig was very stiff, but I managed to put some pre-bend in the rig, by: 
moving the mast step aft (inside the cabin) , and shiming the mast forward at 
the deck  partners,and cranking on the backstay. The net effect was to bend the 
mast a little bit, and move the center of effort forward.

Typically the helm was well balanced over a wide range of wind speeds.

Just some thoughts from and old 30 MK 1 owner.

Stus-List Running south

For anyone who,s interested, I made it to Ft Lauderdale safe and sound with 
little trauma. 
I highly recommend finding other C&C-ers in the area you're transiting. I got 
to have a very pleasant few drinks and a highly illuminating conversation with 
Rick Brass in Beaufort while we stopped overnight.
 I'm looking forward to sailing with you in my neck of the woods one day, Rick.

Re: Stus-List Canadians - retail sales tax used boat

2013-12-04 Thread Marek Dziedzic
This may depend on the broker, but when I bought my previous boat (some 8
years ago), the broker did not collect any taxes (only his fee, but this was
from the owner), but he informed me to pay the sales tax.

The government will certainly get you the moment you license the boat (and
you have to do that if you have anything with 10HP or more).

Btw. I find that lately CRA is reasonable if you talk to them. The letter
is, probably, a "letter #5", so it has to sound very formal and heartless.

And if you want to look at it positively, consider it a two-years loan from
the government.

Good luck

Marek (in Ottawa)
PS. As a full disclosure, I work for the government (federal, not
provincial, so this tax would not benefit me directly) (:-)

Stus-List halyards again( 10 aloft = 1 on the rail )

2013-12-04 Thread Robert Abbott

Rick:

I am confident I can speak for other listers here to thank you for 
taking the time to provide such pertinent and informative posts. It 
takes time to do what you do and I for one appreciate it. Again, thank you.


Now regarding the cooler full of ice and beer on deck, I'd go sailing 
with you any day.  One wrong tack can negate any less weight aloft or on 
the rail!

Mark;

You are probably close in your surmise that the rail meat is very 
close to being directly over the center of mass of the boat when it 
reaches 63 degrees of heel. However, there is still a righting moment, 
though the moment arm is getting short.


As it heels, the boat rotates around the center of buoyancy, not the 
center of mass. The center of buoyancy is above the center of mass 
(the closer they are when the mast is vertical, the more tender the 
boat. If the center of mass were above the center of buoyancy, the 
boat would turn turtle at the slightest provocation.) and the center 
of buoyancy moves to leeward as the boat heels because of the form 
stability of the hull. In more modern hulls than ours, with relatively 
flat bottoms and wide turn of the bilge carried from max beam to well 
aft, generate a lot of form stability. Hence the center of buoyancy 
moves quite a bit to leeward as the boat heels, while the center of 
mass moves some amount to windward. It is the lateral offset between 
centers of mass and buoyancy that provide resistance to heeling.


Paul;

I agree with your calculations, except that the length of the moment 
arms for the rail meat and the weight aloft need to be adjusted 
slightly to account for the leeward movement of the center of 
buoyancy. Add a few inches to the righting arm of the rail meat, and 
subtract the same number of inches from righting arm of the weight 
aloft. So at 20 degrees of heel, the 10 pounds aloft might have the 
same effect as 38 or 39 pounds on the rail.


Now I've not looked into purchasing any high tech halyards for my 38. 
What I have (7/16 Cajun XLE) is large enough in diameter to have a 
good hand and to not creep in the rope clutch. I have a Barient 27 
halyard winch to preload luff of the main to 500 pounds or so and take 
up the stretch in the line when the wind is strong, and I really don't 
want to put much more load than that on the 3/16ths or ¼ inch Dacron 
cord that reinforces the luff of the main. If I trim the vang and the 
traveler right the load on the main from a gust of wind isn't going to 
change by all that much to generate more than an inch or two of 
additional, transitory stretch in the halyard.


But I have recently purchased floating, high tech spin sheets. They 
needed to be about the same diameter as the old sheets in order to 
have acceptable hand and work on the winch drums. My floating lines 
are way stronger than they need to be, and consequently have no 
stretch (which, unfortunately, you kind of want in spin sheets). What 
I found is that the high tech, floating line was more than twice as 
strong as the old sheets, but only about 4 pounds lighter for 100 feet 
of line.


So the saving for my main halyard would be around 2 pounds. If I went 
from 7/16ths XLE double braid to 3/8ths Spectra core the strength 
doubles, the stretch goes from 12 " (@ 1300 pounds of load) to about 
3", the halyard costs about $60 more, and the weight savings is about 
3 pounds. The way I sail, I don't see that much value.


In my experience the racers who salivate over decreasing weight aloft 
tend to be the same guys who have toothbrushes with the handle cut 
short, and who leave the seat cushions, locker covers, power cord, and 
all the beer and ice at the dock in order to save weight. Not that I 
think they are wrong, it's just that we have a different perspective 
than I do.


Maybe I should think about keeping a cooler full of ice and beer on 
deck, so it can be moved to the high side of the boat to offset the 
extra weight of halyards aloft. Now there's an idea that should make 
the crew happy.

Re: Stus-List Canadians - retail sales tax used boat

2013-12-04 Thread Marek Dziedzic
You can feel bad, but the law is that you have to pay the sales tax (as you
do on cars) every time the item (boat, car) changes hands. The only
difference is that it is up to you to pay it (the onus is on you). If you
did not pay at the time of the transaction, you can feel lucky that you did
not have to come up with the cash at that time.

You were not singled out; we all paid the tax. You might be better off in
Alberta (I don't think they charge the sales tax on boats), but the season
is shorter.

Massachusetts charges sales tax, annual registration fees and the cities (e.g. 
Boston) charge excise tax (personal property) and even a "mooring fee" for 
using the harbor, even if you're in a marina slip.  As a non-citizen, you have 
to go the state registration route because you cannot document the boat with 
the Coast Guard.  That meant paying the additional 1.25% sales tax when moving 
to Connecticut from MA where I'd already paid 5%.  What fun!  On the other

All this talk about states/provinces/countries imposing taxes.  What about the 
lengths some boatowners go to to avoid them and the governments' efforts to 
discover and collect?  At least Steve's case was above board albeit delayed.


I knew a boatowner that used his mother-in-law's address in a non-tax state to 
avoid the property/annual fees in the state where he lived and where he kept it.

All the vessels documented in Delaware..

I've heard of states sending auditors to the USCG Vessel Documentation Center 
to search for boats home ported in their state.  

Then there are the states that want to "number" your boat and collect the 
annual fee.  Only the USCG VDC can "number" your boat.  However, a state can 
issue its own registration and collect an annual fee.  We went through that 
here in Louisiana a while back.  LA wanted their registration number displayed 
on the bow regardless of whether the boat was USCG documented or not.  They've 
backed off and compromised on that now.  Just pay the fee and move on.

Some states do similar but only require the annual tag be displayed.

One regulation here in Louisiana that many boat owners are ignorant of is the 
requirement that ALL trailers be inspected and that the inspection tag be 
carried on (or with) the trailer.  I bet if the cops show up at a popular boat 
launch here they could write tickets for 50% of the trailers.

Massachusetts charges sales tax, annual registration fees and the cities
(e.g. Boston) charge excise tax (personal property) and even a "mooring fee"
for using the harbor, even if you're in a marina slip.  As a non-citizen,
you have to go the state registration route because you cannot document the
boat with the Coast Guard.  That meant paying the additional 1.25% sales tax
when moving to Connecticut from MA where I'd already paid 5%.  What fun!  On
the other hand, the Value Added Tax in UK is currently running at 20%...

They do go looking for boats with Delaware tags too, so that trick mainly
works on trailer boats now. Speaking of which, a huge % of trailers in
Maryland have Maine tags. Maine charges something like 20% of what Maryland
charges for trailer tags.

All this talk about states/provinces/countries imposing taxes.  What about
the lengths some boatowners go to to avoid them and the governments' efforts
to discover and collect?  At least Steve's case was above board albeit
delayed. 



I knew a boatowner that used his mother-in-law's address in a non-tax state
to avoid the property/annual fees in the state where he lived and where he
kept it.

All the vessels documented in Delaware..

I've heard of states sending auditors to the USCG Vessel Documentation
Center to search for boats home ported in their state.  

Then there are the states that want to "number" your boat and collect the
annual fee.  Only the USCG VDC can "number" your boat.  However, a state can
issue its own registration and collect an annual fee.  We went through that
here in Louisiana a while back.  LA wanted their registration number
displayed on the bow regardless of whether the boat was USCG documented or
not.  They've backed off and compromised on that now.  Just pay the fee and
move on.

Some states do similar but only require the annual tag be displayed.

One regulation here in Louisiana that many boat owners are ignorant of is
the requirement that ALL trailers be inspected and that the inspection tag
be carried on (or with) the trailer.  I bet if the cops show up at a popular
boat launch here they could write tickets for 50% of the trailers.

Stus-List wire halyards

2013-12-04 Thread Robert Abbott
When our boat arrived from Wisconsin, the standing rig was completely 
disassembled.  That's when we discovered the wire halyards had cut 
through the top 'aluminum tie bolt'.probably about 50%.


Had a machine shop make two new ones from SS..won't ever have to 
worry about that happening again.

Be careful stowing them.  When I re-rigged I replaced the spreaders because
a PO wrapped the wire halyards behind the spreaders to keep them quiet.  The
wire wore completely through the aluminum trailing edge, and I'm pretty sure
that weld has structural value.

 Never knew that they had used aluminum bolts. Certainly something to watch out 
for. I can't imagine wanting aluminum bolts on
anything that doesn't fly. Bound to cause trouble eventually.

The shroud tang through bolt at the spreaders on my boat is stainless.

Re: Stus-List Taxes on boats

2013-12-04 Thread Frederick G Street
I was lucky enough on both of my C&C purchases to be able to use a loophole 
(which I believe has since been closed…) that allowed sales-tax exempt purchase 
of a boat by a Minnesota purchaser where the transaction occurred in Minnesota, 
but the boat was being moved to Wisconsin.  Due to geography, Duluth, MN (at 
the very western end of Lake Superior) is within a mile or so of Superior, WI, 
and they share a common harbor.  So it was easy to drive the boat over to the 
Minnesota side, close the deal, then take the boat back over to the Wisconsin 
side.  Voila, no sales tax.

I guess I can’t buy any more sailboats; I won’t be able to afford the 
additional $$$…   :^)

On the topic of impellers and winterizing, I came across a statement in my boat manual that the impeller (they actually recommended removing the entire water pump as well) should be removed every winter and stored in a bag rather than soaked in antifreeze and fixed in one position with bent blades for months.  I then asked this question of Globe regarding the silicone impellers they sell and they recommended the same.  I guess I will do this in the future.  Dave

Maryland charges around $25/2 years for the state tag on documented boats. They 
do go looking for boats with Delaware tags too, so that trick mainly works on 
trailer boats now. Speaking of which, a huge % of trailers in Maryland have 
Maine tags. Maine charges something like 20% of what Maryland charges for 
trailer tags.

All this talk about states/provinces/countries imposing taxes.  What about the 
lengths some boatowners go to to avoid them and the governments' efforts to 
discover and collect?  At least Steve's case was above board albeit delayed.

I knew a boatowner that used his mother-in-law's address in a non-tax state to 
avoid the property/annual fees in the state where he lived and where he kept it.

All the vessels documented in Delaware..

I've heard of states sending auditors to the USCG Vessel Documentation Center 
to search for boats home ported in their state.

Then there are the states that want to "number" your boat and collect the 
annual fee.  Only the USCG VDC can "number" your boat.  However, a state can 
issue its own registration and collect an annual fee.  We went through that 
here in Louisiana a while back.  LA wanted their registration number displayed 
on the bow regardless of whether the boat was USCG documented or not.  They've 
backed off and compromised on that now.  Just pay the fee and move on.

Some states do similar but only require the annual tag be displayed.

One regulation here in Louisiana that many boat owners are ignorant of is the 
requirement that ALL trailers be inspected and that the inspection tag be 
carried on (or with) the trailer.  I bet if the cops show up at a popular boat 
launch here they could write tickets for 50% of the trailers.

It's even worse in Virginia where there is an annual personal property tax
that varies by County!  People look for marinas in the low-rate counties.
 The counties do send inspectors to the marinas, and used to and probably
still send inspectors to apartment parking lots looking for cars without
stickers.  I knew an attorney who kept his Benz garaged to avoid the
personal property tax, until he pissed off a former business partner who
narc-ed him. He got hit for several years of back taxes.

In Nova Scotia all vehicles must be inspected every two years and
trailers the same.  Used to be annually which was a royal pain
 
Boats have a registration number starting with 11A and displayed on the
bow.  If boat is registered under a name then the registration number is
not required.  Registration numbers only for boats over a cretain size
or with motors 10hp and over.

Re: Stus-List Canadians - retail sales tax used boat

2013-12-04 Thread Della Barba, Joe
No one likes sales tax. Here in the USA it is standard to pay tax on boats and 
cars even if they get sold 300 times. What we do have and you might not is *50 
STATES* that can make up 50 rules and will sometimes tax the same boat you 
already paid tax on. My boat was bought in 1977 and presumably the tax was paid 
then. I was 13 years old in 1977 and not overly concerned with sales tax laws, 
so I hope no one asks for the paperwork! If I move to another state or *stay 
there long enough while sailing*, they just might decide I need to pay tax to 
them as well. Sometimes you can get out of it by proving you already paid in 
your home state, which I would have one hell of a time proving. Some states are 
reasonable as to the length of stay and some are not. Maine famously decided to 
charge sales tax on airplanes that were there more than 1 week! That rule went 
away pretty quick when they realized how many tourists that would chase away 
besides for making any paint or repair shop in Maine lose every single 
out-of-state customer.

Gary, your story reminds me of a problem I had, same drill, overheating with no 
ascertainable cause..(after much searching), then one day it got so bad I 
thought that maybe there was something blocking the intake opening in the 
bottom of the hull; there was; I found that there were microballoons from when 
some previous owner (not me) had faired the hull and had closed up the hole by 
about 80 percent! I cleaned it out and became a very happy camper, er,

The old exhaust riser (iron pipe) finally failed and I had a new one built. 
Still a problem even with the new hose. I was looking at everything it got 
very bad...checked the water pump and found the impeller was toast. Took all 
the pieces home and glued them together to make sure I had all the parts - 
still had an overheating problem with a brand new impeller - remember, I had 
checked everything in the system and it was OK
 
Changed the sensor..no help...changed the zincs... no help... was just about to

Steve hopefully I didn't offend and if I did my apologies. 

You said you bought at a broker. Don't they charge this tax at time of sale? Or 
is the broker merely a middle man and the sale is actually between you and the 
previous owner? Then the seller pays them a commision.

I own a business and we have to collect and remit PST for Saskatchewan even 
though our customer is an Alberta address but goods were delivered to SK. My 
point is we the vendor have to collect not the customer. Just trying to 
understand how they operate as a business and don't collect the taxes.

from the ministry of finance asking for 13% of the purchase price. Do they
expect me to hold onto that money for two years? is there no kind of "right

I don't duck out of paying my fair share, I don't circumvent the rules but
the government already collected sales tax on this boat! 33 years ago!
So they make me wait two years and now they want payment within 60 days or
..

"If this information is not received within 60 days of the mailing date, an
estimated assessment with interest compounded DAILY at the current rate from
the date of purchase, may be issued"

yeah, that sounds reasonable

One of the reasons the marine industry is so healthy in Rhode Island is that 
here is no sales tax on boats. Coincidence? I don't think so.

Reminds me of when the US decided to impose a tax on luxury items in the 90's.  
Cars over $30K and new boats over $100K if I remember correctly.  New boat 
market went into the toilet.  17,000 boatbuilders got pink slips.  Well, THAT 
worked.  Lawmakers consistently ignore the law of unintended consequences.

Steve, speaking of bureaucratic shocks, when I bought Touche' and went to 
change the documentation to my name from the previous owner, the USCG 
documentation center informed me there was a $62,400 lien registered against 
the boat!  Turned out to be just a paperwork drill but that piece of news had 
my head spinning for a couple weeks.

Re: Stus-List Canadians - retail sales tax used boat

2013-12-04 Thread Dr. Mark Bodnar

  
  

  Stevan,
  You have my sympathy for sure!
  I know that I'll have to pay the HST on my new boat - despite the
  fact that appropriate taxes were paid when it was bought 27 yrs
  ago.
  The concept of sales tax is "supposed" to be on new items - as a
  matter of fact the HST is specifically set up so that the seller
  gets a rebate on the HST they paid already so the tax is only
  collected once.
  
  BUT we're talking about gov't here!  And about money!  It's like
  flies to s**t!
  This is my first experience with paying the HST on a boat - but
  they do the same thing with cars here -- we pay the HST on a new,
  or used, vehicle  except (and this I don't understand) if you
  buy a new car from a dealer and sell them your old car, then you
  only pay the HST on the difference!
  But if you buy yourself a new car and sell your old car privately
  then you can't get the HST rebate on the old vehicle value!
  
  Bastards!
  
  Personally I may note my frustration with the unfair rules by
  waiting until they ask for the tax in a couple years!

Call them.  There likely is a process where you can take some time to
pay.  I once received a letter from CRA giving me 30 days to pay $18000.
I called and they were able to extend it up to one year.  Letters from
CRA demanding payment do not make you feel very nice.  Would not want to
wish that on anyone.
 
... and yes.  Pretty much everyone on this list knows that sales tax is
due on purchase of a boat in their own province if that rule applies.  I
know that many on private sale get away with not doing it but when you
licenese the boat you start a paper trail where it should be paid.  So
basically only unlicensed boats or boats with less than 10 horsepower
get away with it.

Re: Stus-List Old Sails Suck

2013-12-04 Thread dwight
While what Ron said has some effect, I find that entry angle is more
affected by forestay tension, so given that you have your hi-tech genoa
halyard tension set to get the draft where you want it, try cranking the
backstay tension up a bit and notice how the entry angle changes as the
forestay tension also increases

Sam,

While the draft change is minimal, the entry of the luff changes with
halyard tension in the newer materials.  You can check this by experiment.
Set the jib halyard hand tight and note the angle of the luff entry; then
tighten the halyard a lot and note how the entry of the jib moved.

This entry change makes it overall flatter or less flat.

As you state, draft is mostly built in.

If you are really interested in this,(and you should be, if you want to get
the most pleasure from sailing your vessel),

find a copy of "sail power".

Halyard tension, backstay,lead position,boom downhaul etc are the gears that
accelerate your boat.

I'm writing on Wellness and Anti Aging now, so find the Book.

Tensioning the halyards on the old sails stretched the Dacron on the bias

A bit more explaining please!

The main difference is that the new sails dont stretch and their shape is
factory engineered.

You will still adjust mail and genoa halyard tension according to
conditions. You will likely

not ever require a Cunningham ever again.

Have Fun.

Subject: Stus-List Halyard Tension

Reading the tread about halyards, and an earlier post about furlers reminded
me to ask a question of you racers out there: -

 

I don't race - only because there's no-one racing on our lake. Although I
have done a couple of Swiftsures.

But I like passing boats and hate it when boats pass me!

My boat has been pretty well upgraded with all rope halyards; new adjustable
genoa cars; self tailers; new traveller; barbour haulers; and new Dacron
sails 5 seasons ago.

I sail with a 135% genoa on a furler. While sailing I adjust the genoa
halyard regularly to move draft in the sail as the wind changes. (I do the
same with the main too!)

Now the question:

Late this season I bought a new high tech, Kevlar, carbon, kryptonite, 135%
genoa.

I'm assuming I don't adjust halyard tension with this new sail as I don't
think the sail will distort like a Dacron sail.

Similarly, when I buy a matching main, main halyard and Cunningham
adjustment will become redundant. Am I correct with this assumption?

If this is correct, are there any trimming adjustments with these new high
tech sails that I should become familiar with? Do you trim these newer sails
any different than the old Dacron sails?

What new techniques do I need to absorb?

Thanks,

sam :-)
