Don't forget the Peterson 36 called "Level Crossing." His previous boat had

Re: Stus-List boat names

I heard of a boat named “Ruthless” as the owner’s wife, Ruth, would not set 
foot on the boat.

A friend of mine owned a Yamaha 36 named “Made in Japan”.

Another friend owned a J-24 named “Jail Bait”.  My wife and I towed that J-24 
across the country to participate in the 1989 J-24 Worlds in Kingston.  A lot 
of truck drivers took a close look at my wife as they passed, especially in So 
Dakota.

I took part in a 1985 Transpac charter of a Barnett 52 named “Climax”.  
“Climax” was owned by two lady part doctors.

I sailed several Sauza Cups (Lahaina YC, Maui) on a Choate 40 named “Phoenix” 
as the owner’s previous boat burned to the waterline after his spouse 
over-primed the alcohol stove and the fire got out of control.

I named the Ericson 30+ I owned in the 80’s “Helen Highwater”.  My 
father-in-law saw that on a painting of a WW2 bomber with a provocatively 
dressed Helen added for emphasis.

Last year, I was thinking of replacing my halyard with all rope halyard.  
However, after a fairly lengthy discussion with sailmaker and rigger,
I decided to replace with wire rope.  I wasn't that keen in replacing the 
sheeve at the masthead, and my rigger successfully argued that
the wire rope halyard had served it's purpose well for the last 30 years...(not

That statement probably cost him a fair bit of profit as all rope halyard would

Re: Stus-List List Also looking at a C&C 36 - engine at an angle?

2015-09-21 Thread jtsails via CnC-List
In my experience, the prop offset was designed to offset the effect of 
“prop-walk” when motoring forward. The trade-off is that the boat will 
“prop-walk” much more in reverse with the offset. If you have ever tried to 
drive a fin-keeled boat that has no offset in the prop, you will very much 
appreciate the trade-off. Every fin-keeled boat with no offset that I have ever 
helmed pulled to one side with a surprising amount of force when motoring in a 
straight line, and that gets old quickly! On our boats, that means a slight 
offset to the port side for the prop but the amount needed changes with every 
prop and rpm setting. the bonus is that we can remove our prop shaft without 
dropping the rudder. The negative is that the boat will pull to port 
dramatically when you go to reverse and use a lot rpms.

This allows you to remove the shaft without removing the rudder.  It also means 
the boat pushes to port while going ahead and pulls to port while going astern.

Re: Stus-List C&c 30 main halyard size

Boat_SigJeffrey,
Not sure I agree with your conclusions.  7x19 SS wire isn’t what I would call 
cheap, plus you would pay for a rigger to do a wire to rope splice plus an eye 
splice. A hybrid high tech line like New Englands “VPC” is much less expensive 
($1.79/ft for 7/16” at defender) and it only would need an eye splice at one 
end. As for replacing the sheeves, may of us on the list have had no problems 
running all-rope halyards over the original sheeves.

This allows you to remove the shaft without removing the rudder.  It also means

Your outrage and accusations of hypocrisy are misplaced. The term "Whitey"
doesn't have any negative historical connotations, "blacky" and other
terms, do.
But this isn't really a topic of conversation suitable for a sailing list.

Re: Stus-List Looking at a C&C 33-2.... known issues?

2015-09-21 Thread Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List
Bruce

A couple comments about the 33-2 and issues you have raised.

First.  Just about everybody I have known who has or has had a C&C33-2 refers 
to it fondly and as just about the best boat they ever have owned.  Have a 
friend who currently has a Sabre 34 and previously had a C&C34R since his 33-2. 
 He has often said that they all should have kept their 33-2s since they were 
great boats and relatively easy and cheap to maintain and race.  Same thing for 
the owner of the C&C 115 that we race on regularly.  While neither of these two 
ever said they wish they still had their 33 in place of the Sabre of 115 they 
both speak fondly of the boat and talk of all the winning they did while racing 
them.  Compared to the 115 and 34R the 33-2 was very easy to win with and very 
inexpensive to run.

As for the 36 I grew up with a C&C 36 that our family purchased new in 1981.  I 
always found it a powerful and nice boat to sail on.  However at that time I 
had not comparative experience racing on many other boats in the C&C line so 
could not comment on the 36 vs the 33-2 from personal experience.  However from 
many years being on the sailing scene since then I do know that I have heard a 
lot of very favourable comments about the 33-2 and not nearly so many about the 
36.  May have something to do with numbers built which I will leave up to you 
to decide.  (my apologies to 36 owners for this)

“cabin sole are screwed down”

I believe this shows only that at some point it was removed and either replaced 
or refinished.  This is pretty common practice.  Likely only the bilge access 
panels are not screwed down.  One note about screwed down varnished wood.  The 
screw heads are likely gummed up with old varnish and particularly difficult to 
remove

“isn't great access to the engine”

Our Frers 33 has a very similar internal layout to the 33-2.  As mentioned by 
others access to dipstick etc is usually from galley side inside a cupboard 
etc.  The other side has a quarterberth.  We installed a large round inspection 
panel to give some access from this side.  Get used to climbing in the cockpit 
lazarette though as it seems that is the only way to get at steering and 
several other items of maintenance in that area.  If boat has the standard 
2GM20 engine you should be able to get at everything more or less reasonably.  
A 33-2 in this area that had issues around stern tube had to remove the engine 
to fully access that area.  That was a pretty unusual thing though and due to a 
misaligned shaft

Mast Step/sump

As mentioned by others this is the one common area of concern on a 33-2.  It 
does not appear to be a major repair item but one that should be addressed and 
just one more good reason to take the mast down in the fall on your first year 
of ownership

Both the 33-2 and 36 are great boats.  The 33-2 in particular gets a lot of 
great reviews from owners past and present.  36 had headroom for my father who 
was 6’3” which is why they bought that rather than a 34 or 32.

Subject: Stus-List Looking at a C&C 33-2 known issues?

I'm looking at a mid-80s C&C 33-2. Overall, boat looks great, but would love to 
know if there are known issues with these boats that I should pay attention to. 
I know about the potential for wet core, and will be getting a full survey if I 
go forward, I'm more wondering about items peculiar to this model

I'd be especially interested, for example, in knowing if there are patterns of 
things that need attention: things like sealing or rebedding hatches, replacing 
leaky windows, wobbly stanchion bases, hard-to-get-to thru-hulls, etc.

Things that caught my attention in the first inspection:

-- I noticed that there isn't great access to the engine - removing the 
stairs/forward cover provides access to the front, but it looks like it would 
be tough to get to the sides if needed. It looks like the only way to get to 
the shaft coupling and packing gland, for example, is through the cockpit 
lazarette. Has this proven to be an issue, or is it okay?

-- it looks like there has been repair to [at least] the gelcoat at the forward 
end of the fixed plexi windows, both port and starboard. I've read several 
threads about having to replace leaking windows, is this a common problem? And 
would it have required gelcoat repair, or is it possible there was some other 
kind of issue?

-- there are some stress cracks in the gelcoat at either end of the teak trim 
at the top of the transom. Is this normal (eg, just an artifact of a "hard 
corner" in the mold), or does it indicate something potentially more serious?

-- the top of the door to the forward v-berth looks like it has been shaved. In 
other boats, that can be a sign that the interior structure has "racked". but 
all the o
