I also worked with Guido.  I replaced my traveler this spring. I sent them my

no new holes to drill.

Burt,

You should have several options.  

You might consider talking to Guido or Mark at Garhauer Marine.  They may be 
able to make you a new and better car for a reasonable price.

I'm assuming there are sheaves on the ends of the car?  How much room is 
between the sheaves?  Enough to install a padeye with two fasteners?  That 
would hold up to the loads better than a single point attachment system.

Your description doesn't sound like a Harken car.  More like a Merriman or a 
Schaefer.

Stus-List Rain inside mast?

2014-09-16 Thread Robert Boyer via CnC-List
I have never had any significant leakage that runs down my mast in the 28 years 
that I have owned my boat.  Occasionally, I have some small leaks in a heavy 
downpour.  When you think about it, the opening for halyard exits are downward 
and not much rain water can get in at that point.  I would think that if you 
can actually hear a stream of water running down the inside of your mast, there 
must be a major (and unusual) hole somewhere on your mast.  I doubt that you 
could hear a stream of water coming from the normal small sources of leakage on 
your mast, unless you have many more holes than a normal boat--Do you have mast 
steps?

Re: Stus-List Traveler components

2014-09-16 Thread Burt Stratton via CnC-List
I really have no issues with my traveler except the attachment point for the 
mainsheet block. It is a 4:1 with dual end sheaves. I lubricated the captive 
track rollers and sheaves when I had it apart. It adjusts easily under a load. 
The adjusting line is continuous. I think the correct size stainless eye bolt 
will fill the bill and keep my hard earned $$ in my pocket to be used for more 
pressing things like a new AC electrical system and an isolated starting 
battery, new house bank batteries and a 2-bank charger.

‎As an alternative, I replaced my traveler with Harken a few seasons ago. 

The track has a "T" slot on the bottom so the bolts slide into any position and 
use the existing holes from the original setup.

High quality, possibly a bit more expensive than Garhauer, adjusts under load, 
a great improvement over the original equipment.

Burt,

If you replace the attachment fitting, consider one with a shoulder.  A
simple eye bolt may not be able to withstand as much side load as a
shouldered eye bolt or eve nut.

>From what you've described, there is some clearance on the underside of the
car.  Perhaps an eye nut bolted from underneath may work.  Look at this
item:

It comes in 1/4 (400 lbs SWL), 5/16 (800 lbs SWL), 3/8 inch (1320 lbs
SWL).  I have one of these and its eye bolt equivalent in 1/2 inch
installed in Touche' masthead for attaching spinnaker halyard blocks.

Re: Stus-List Traveler components- now boom vang replacement

2014-09-16 Thread Marek Dziedzic via CnC-List
I don’t know if they are “better”, but they are very reasonably priced and have 
very good products. not to mention that since they are a small shop, you can 
talk to them and get semi-custom solutions at the same price as what is in 
their catalogue.

On top of that it seems that they do sail themselves; or at least know what 
they are talking about.

Btw. some of the high-end stuff (some of the very lightweight blocks, as an 
example) is probably much better somewhere else. Garhauer stuff is very good, 
but it is not bleeding edge.

A disclaimer: I have no involvement with them, but I have bought a number of 
blocks from them (lately, a great 3:1/6:1 mainsheet fiddle block arrangement).

just my $0.02 (CAD)

David, 

I'm guessing the original is a Hall Spars vang.  They still sell the same one!
Just curious - why is the Garhauer better?

Very happy with the quality and service from Garhauer. 

I also worked with Guido.  I replaced my traveler this spring. I sent them 
my old track and they used it as a drill template, so installation was easy 
with no new holes to drill. 

The Garhauer cars are low friction, and high quality. With the  increased 
mechanical advantage and continuous line it was a major improvement for modest 
sum.

  Or better yet, talking to him about replacing the traveller. Their new

  Burt,
  You should have several options.  

  You might consider talking to Guido or Mark at Garhauer Marine.  They may 
be able to make you a new and better car for a reasonable price.
  I'm assuming there are sheaves on the ends of the car?  How much room is 
between the sheaves?  Enough to install a padeye with two fasteners?  That 
would hold up to the loads better than a single point attachment system.
  Your description doesn't sound like a Harken car.  More like a Merriman 
or a Schaefer.

  Took my salvage project to Newport this weekend. Beautiful sail down on

Cozy first ever evening on the boat with the admiral. Very enjoyable 
considering the stark accommodations. Learned a few things about life aboard 
the new to us 33 footer. Only real issue was the traveler broke over-night. The 
broken component is a stainless steel eye bolt in the center of the car that is 
used to attach the mainsheet block. It goes through the car and is secured by a 
nut on the bottom. I am not sure this is original design or hardware. Can’t 
find a traveler car on the interwebs that looks anything like mine. I assumed 
it was Harken as everything else on the boat is. It is a very simple 4:1 
arrangement with 8 captive rollers that ride on the track. The hole that the 
eyebolt goes through looks like it was threaded once. I ended up using a 5/16 
stainless eye bolt that was a close enough fit but it is definitely a temporary 
solution. Does anyone have a source that might have the correct components or 
am I looking at a new traveler track, ends, blocks and car?

Stus-List Yanmar push button died

I have a 2QM15 yanmar - after a few intermittents, my engine start button
has failed completely. Someone knew what Cole-Hersee switch can replace it
- anyone remember, or have another suggestion?

Nate, it may not be the switch. I have an original in perfect working condition 
if catch my drift...

Check your battery ground/cabling/connections. Let me know if it is the switch 
and if so, you can have it.

Stus-List Landfall 38

2014-09-16 Thread Berry Fox via CnC-List
Hi, I'm seriously considering a LF38.  I'm looking for a performance cruiser 
but also want to race.  The LF38 looks like a great choice but I'm wondering 
about how it sails. I read through the archives and see that several of you 
racecan you give me any insights into how your boats perform?  What do they 
rate in your area and how do they sail to the rating?  How well do they point?  
Any other insights are appreciated.  Thanks in advance,

Dan

Re: Stus-List Landfall 38

2014-09-16 Thread Josh Muckley via CnC-List
My opinion is that the 37+ is a better choice...that's why I bought one.
The LF38 usually rates ~140 and the 37+ is ~75.  The trouble with low
ratings is that you have to be a good enough sailor to sail to them.  Every
second counts and every mistake can cost you the race.  I had my ass handed
to me in a friendly race by a Pearson 32.  They rated 168.  It was mostly a
down wind run and they chose a less down wind angle.  I doesn't hurt that
they have a kevlar sail and hard bottom paint polished to 1000 grit.

As for pointing the 37+ can point very high and even power through a
pinch.  It is easy to accidentally pinch up because the boat doesn't realy
talk back very much.

The C&C 30, the C&C 34+, the C&C 36+ and the C&C 37+ are all very similar
layout and design.  The C&C 40 seems to be the predecessor to the 37+ and
the C&C 121 is the successor.

Good luck,
