Re: Stus-List C&C 26 Prop & Zinc

[Letsgo Sailing via CnC-List]

You have to keep in mind zinc is for salty waters, for fresh water you need to 
use magnesium or at least cast aluminum.

Merry Christmas to all.

Subject: Stus-List C&C 26 Prop & Zinc

 

Diver who cleaned the hull of my C&C says I need to change out the zinc and 
replace the prop.  The prop had buildup and while clean now has the residue 
that will enhance further growth.  The since is just normal wear and need 
replacing.  

 

Anyone have any idea where to find both the prop and zinc?

 

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

Re: Stus-List Diving your own boate

[Chuck S via CnC-List]

Hi Burt, 
I took the diving course in college and never got certified because weather 
postponed so many diving trips, I gave up. You need certification here to get a 
tank filled, so I bought a Hookha for about $650, years ago. No worries about 
running out of air, so you can clean your hull very thoroughly, and the 
neighbors too, or the whole marina. I chose the 12VDC model, so I can use it 
when on a mooring, away from marina gunk in the water, but you can get 120VAC, 
or even gas power. The gas powered model would be better for reef diving, but 
the 12VDC works best for me.

Good stuff in response to my questions. 



I think I will continue on to get dive certified just because it sounds like 
fun. I have some experience diving but never got certified. I know people who 
are but over time I’m sure that little complication will become more of a 
hassle than I want to deal with. I did look at the hookah and cockpit snorkel 
compressor systems and decided that it would be just simpler all around (and 
not much more costly) to get a tank and regulator and a way to put air in it 
cheaply whenever I need it. My guess is that for my purposes I can probably get 
away with two fills a year unless I want a lot of free lobster or get a spear 
gun for Christmas. 



I have cleaned my hull free diving but getting too old for that. Great workout 
but can’t do the zinc or anything else that needs more than 90 seconds. Maybe 
I’ll offer to do some of my mooring neighbors’ boats and re-coup a few bucks 
from my diving toys. 



Regarding bottom paint. I do use ablative paint (Micron CSC). It works well in 
Narragansett Bay and I like that it gets thinner as I clean it. At the mooring 
I’m pretty much all set with the best practice Nazis.

Put a checkmark for me in the column of 50’ hose with regulator and a tank 
sitting on the dock. Works well without all the hassle of a BCD. Although I 
can’t really “stand” on the bottom cleaning the bottom is not a terribly 
strenuous activity. 





Saves much money from having a diver clean the bottom, especially if you race…

I just leave the tank on the pier and dive. I have a 5/3 wetsuit and weight

You might cruise eBay for a used dive or tank filling compressor. You don't 
need to be certified to fill your own tanks.

Jack, how do you clean your hull? Do you do it yourself or hire it out. I am 
considering getting dive certified so I can get a set of tanks and air. Even 
with all the gear (weights, wet suit, etc.) I think it would be a lot less 
expensive in the long run and as a bonus, I would be certified to dive. Up here 
in the northeast I don’t think I would need to do it as often as you unless I 
start racing. It would also be nice to change my prop shaft zincs once during 
the season and deal with other various issues that might require me to work on 
the exterior of the hull below the water line.
