Stus-List Owners Manuals?

2016-02-06 Thread Randy Stafford via CnC-List
Hello C&C Sailors, 

I recently bought C&C 30 MK1 hull #7 (if I'm decoding correctly; full hull 
number is 30007972). Up until 2012, this boat was named Ruby (after her red 
topsides, I presume), and was in the Grand Traverse Yacht Club in Traverse 
City, MI. Does anybody know anything about the history of this boat? 

More to the point of this email's subject, I ordered an owner's manual from Stu 
Murray and sent a check to him at the address listed on the cncphotoalbum 
website, but have yet to get any kind of response. Is that still a viable way 
to obtain an owner's manual? 

Thanks in advance and best regards.

Re: Stus-List Replacing through hulls on a 30 MK1

2016-02-06 Thread Peter Fell via CnC-List
I just went out and purchased a Groco step-wrench. A little heat on the flange 
with a heat-gun softens up the bedding compound and allows you to turn the 
through-hull. The hard part was getting the locking nut off the through-hull on 
the inside. I ended-up cutting mine off as the through-hulls were definitely 
rose-coloured. Wood backing plates were also punky so they came off too and I 
made up new wood backing plates coated with epoxy (and later painted with 
Interlux bilgecoat). You have to shape the backing plates to the shape of the 
hull. I think I used 3/4-inch marine ply for mine.

All the flush-mount through-hulls I found were too small to use as 
replacements. So we filled the ‘cups’ with West epoxy and went with Groco 
mushroom surface-mount through-hulls. These had the added benefit too that they 
are a taper-thread so you get more than the 3 or so threads engaging with the 
ball valves. Another (best) option is to use flange-mount adapters on the 
inside but that requires either using fiberglass backing plates with studs 
installed or, with wood backing plates, drilling more holes through the hull 
for through-bolts. And those through-bolts line-up pretty closely to the edges 
of the filled area where the old flush-mount through-hulls were. I was 
concerned that the epoxy fill might not stand-up to the drilling. I might 
actually go back and install the flange adapters on the cockpit drains and 
engine intake. Quite a bit more robust solution in this area where there is a 
bit of potential for something heavy whacking the side of the through-hull. I 
recall reading of an errant spare alternator taking out a through-hull. Under 
the galley or head sink I can’t see much reason to use flange adapters.

It's  a step wrench. Defender sells them iirc.

  That socket trick is slick.  Plumbers use a tool for this that is fairly 
cheap.  It is made of cast iron and has several different sized steps to fit 
inside the valve and capture the two tits inside.  Another trick it to slide 
the handle of a pipe wrench or an adjustable wrench inside and hold that with 
another wrench.  During removal, you are not turning this till the inside 
flange is removed, but simply backing it up.  During install, you hold the 
outside part while tightening the inside flange.

  I've done it on mine. Don't touch the flange, it's the best part. Inside the 
flange hole there are two notches to help you hold it while unscrewing. Buy a 
cheap socket (for ratchets) of the same size of the inside hole. Then grind a 
slot to allow the socket to slide in and lock itself on the notches.
  You'll need to be two for this job to unscrew the thing. It will be fairly 
easy once it starts moving. You'll probably be surprised at how well and 
healthy the hull looks underneath, this was well done. Unless the flange turned 
rose (meaning the zinc inside is gone), keep it and replace everything else.

Bill, yes it is.  Please could you check out how you would like to ship?  It

There are Cotter pins and I think a shaft nut, but no shaft key.  It was making

Jim, could you let me know off-list how much you would like for your fixed

the prop situation figured out soon before it's due to go back in.

Re: Stus-List Replacing through hulls on a 30 MK1

2016-02-06 Thread Chuck S via CnC-List
That socket trick is slick. Plumbers use a tool for this that is fairly cheap. 
It is made of cast iron and has several different sized steps to fit inside the 
valve and capture the two tits inside. Another trick it to slide the handle of 
a pipe wrench or an adjustable wrench inside and hold that with another wrench. 
During removal, you are not turning this till the inside flange is removed, but 
simply backing it up. During install, you hold the outside part while 
tightening the inside flange.

I've done it on mine. Don't touch the flange, it's the best part. Inside the 
flange hole there are two notches to help you hold it while unscrewing. Buy a 
cheap socket (for ratchets) of the same size of the inside hole. Then grind a 
slot to allow the socket to slide in and lock itself on the notches. 
You'll need to be two for this job to unscrew the thing. It will be fairly easy

I have a Max-Prop and have enjoyed the consistent operation and quality of

seriously consider a flex-fold.  As I understand it there is no pitch to

Re: Stus-List Propeller Question for 35-3

Hi Tim
I am interested in the Mated offered in your e mail. I currently have a Martec 
18 x 10 which is too large of a diameter of a 3GMF engine.  Can you please let 
me know if this prop is still available.

Thanks,

Sam, 

I have a 2-blade Martec Elliptic 17x10 RH folding prop for a 1" shaft that you 
are welcome to try out for the cost of shipping (from New England).  It came 
off my 35-3 with Yanmar 3GMF and 2.2:1 transmission.  

Fair warning, I replaced it with a flex-o-fold because I wasn't happy with 
performance in reverse and occasional unbalanced opening (one blade more than 
another) at low revs...

Hi everyone,



I recently bought a 35-3, and one of the projects it came with was the prop 
had galvanic corrosion and needed to be replaced.  It's a fixed two blade.  



The previous owners adjusted the pitch on it, apparently from 10 to 8.  
They seemed to think that improved performance but the boatyard is telling me 
that the specs for the boat and engine call for 10.  Does anyone have any 
thoughts on this?



Thanks,

Sam

Hi Sam,



It appears your old prop has an odd pitch to it. The prop I estimated for 
you has a 10 degree pitch which is specified for your boat and engine. Please 
see note below from our prop people and advise what you’d like to do.



Best Regards,

HI CARSTON - DAVE MEASURED THE PITCH ON THE 2 BLADE AND IT IS 8"!  
UNFORTUNATELY, THE PROP I FOUND FOR YOU HAD ALREADY BEEN REPITCHED FROM 12 TO 
10 AND CAN NOT BE REPITCHED ANYMORE.  IT WOULD PROBABLY CRACK.



I LOOKED AROUND AND FOUND ANOTHER 18"X 10", BUT THE PILOT BORE IS 1-1/8", 
SO THE CUSTOMER WOULD HAVE TO USE A BUSHING WITH IT AND HAVE IT REPITCHED TO 
8".  BUSHING COST IS $74 AND REPITCHING IS $150.



KIND OF A WEIRD SIZE.  THE LOWEST PITCH AVAILABLE IS 10".  PLEASE DISCUSS 
WITH YOUR CUSTOMER.  THANKS.

Stus-List Replacing through hulls on a 30 MK1

2016-02-06 Thread Joe at Zialater via CnC-List
Howdy Listers,

I am replacing the through hull cockpit drains on my 30 MK1.   This project
started with replacing the old gate valves - and it has sort of expanded
(shall we say) from there.  Mission creep!

The flange measures 3.5 inches on the outside of the hull with a 1.25
diameter hole.  The flange is even with the hull and does not stand proud of
it.  I have heard that the best plan is to grind off the flange and then
remove the through hull from the inside.  

Does anyone know brand of through hull used in 1975 and where I might find
them?  I want to replace them with the same make and model if I can.

Also any other tips and tricks would be really welcome.

Cheers,

Joe Boyle

Price is incl. shipping costs with a door-to-door service by UPS from Flexofold

The Espar has an air intake hose, so provided the end of the hose is 
clear of any fumes you are good to go.  You could connect that through 
'to the main cabin if you wanted for enhanced piece of mind.  If you 
have flammable vapor in your main cabin then all bets are off...


And these things are pretty miserly, I might go through a gallon or two 
while working on the boat in the winter.  So a tiny fuel tank would be

- Under safety it reads: "The position of the combustion air must not 
allow exhaust fumes or flammable vapour to be drawn in". I have a 
gasoline tank in my engine compartment. Does this preclude me from 
installing one of these?


- Can anyone recommend a suitable fuel tank? I'de like something small 
that I can top off from a jerry can, so I can secure it into place in 
the lazarette. 5 gallons maybe? What are others using if using a 
separate tank?


Thanks,

Hi Russ,

I figure with the newport, the tank is inside the cabin (somewhere
behind the bulkhead I would imagine, hanging locker on my boat
likely). With the espar/webasto, it's in the engine compartment.
Also with the newport, this is pretty much how i have to mount it:

Starboard I have a dinette and of course the mast. Port side isn't
optimal either. Now that I'm thinking about the tank actually, and
the venting, I'm not really sure where I'de locate a tank for the
newport.

has a huge advantage on heat output on low settings, not to be
overlooked. The Admiral & I are a big fan of radiant heat,
also not to be overlooked.

Diesel is the fuel for both heaters and tank location with
proper venting is the same for both, so diesel odour is a
wash, so to speak. The tank can be almost anywhere for either
unit and if elevation is such that gravity feed is not going
to work for the bulkhead heater then you get a little impulse
pump similar to what the Espar uses. I would see about putting
the tank in the cockpit combing area, that's high enough and
easy to fit a deck fill to keep everything outside. Either
heater would like a 2 - 4 gallon tank since you're looking at
up to 1 gallon a day use in cold conditions maybe a bit less
for the D2.

On the 40' wooden boat I'm fitting out for retirement cruising
I will have both types of heaters so I won't need to choose
which one is best. :)

Russ, I really love the idea of the newport heaters, to be
honest, I like the idea of solid fuel the most. A proper wood
fire is one of my favourite things. But the only units worth
getting are expensive wood stove types, which are super nice,
but I can't justify the expense and they have drawbacks on a
boat. The espar is appealing because it's out of the way. The
problem for me with the diesel newport is the fuel. I have an
A4 powered boat and one thing I really like about my boat is
that it doesn't smell like diesel! The bulkhead diesel heater
would necessitate a gravity tank somewhere inside and I'm not
sure where I'de have space, maybe in the hanging locker. I'm
concerned about the diesel smell. Most of what I've read
about them is good however and to your point, maybe more heat
than the D2, less money for sure. It's still an option, will
my boat smell like diesel?Â

  HOT WATER, WARM BOAT

A hydronic system extends the sailing (and showering) season. Our C&C 
35, Secret Plans, was previously used as a racing boat, so the 
hot-water system was stripped out at some time before we purchased 
her. As I’m not a fan of cold showers, this had to be addressed. We 
also wanted to be able to heat the boat so we could extend our 
cruising season a bit longer into the spring and fall. We keep the 
boat on a mooring, so shorepower is not typically available. The 
available fuel sources were diesel and propane, and we wanted to 
install only one system...

Hi Steve,
I had a Wallas 30 Dt installed on my 32 two autumns ago. I live on the boat in 
Victoria over the winter so it gets a fair amount of use.
I went with a professional installer and it took him two days to get it all 
done. It would have taken me significantly longer. The heater is installed in 
the port lazarette tucked up under the coaming. It's a bit of a pain to remove 
for servicing, but it's out of the way the rest of the year.
This model heater has two hot air ducts and two cold air returns. One cold air 
return is under the cockpit seat on the port side and the other is in the cabin 
on the bulkhead behind the fridge. Both hot air runs enter under the sink and I 
have one outlet vent there. I ran the other duct under the stove, behind the 
water tank, through the hanging locker and, finally, out the bottom of the 
storage in the v berth. I wrapped the heating ducts with insulation. Don't skip 
this step.
It works great. I went with Wallas because the national distributor is in town 
and I figured they would have all the parts and expertise I would ever need.
If you want more details, and there are many, let me know.

Hi All,
I'm starting to look at the Espar and Webasto units. Is anyone running one on a 
32? There's a good price jump from the Espar D2 to the D4. The literature 
indicates the D2 is good to 26 feet of boat, so it sounds like I need the D4 :(
My use is Georgian Bay, just want to extend the season, not living aboard in 
the winter. The boat is two hours away so there will be "maintenance" trips in 
the spring and fall which means sleeping aboard, it can get quite cold up 
there. 
I have to keep the temps warm for the boat parrot who'll be living aboard with 
us while we cruise. We're planning three weeks in August this year so it 
shouldn't be too much of an issue but it gets cold up there at night, even in 
August. I imagine a D2 would be fine for cold summer nights but I have ideas 
about maybe cruising the North Channel when the fall colours are out. I don't 
want to limit myself. At the same time, I don't want to spend money that could 
go elsewhere. 
The Newport Dickinson Diesel bulkhead heaters are pretty but I hear they don't 
make quite enough heat. I'm leaning this way for the cost, but don't want to be 
disappointed. Everyone says the Espar and Webastos are best. 
I'de be doing the installation myself in any case so am eager to hear from 
others who have gone through it. 
Thanks,
SteveSuhana, C&C 32Toronto

Hi Steve,

1. - no, it does not preclude install in that 
space (up high please) . your gas tank is vented 
outside or you will smell fumes regularly (I know 
this from a weeping leak when I had the A4).
Note: you may need to up-size ventilation for the 
space for the times the heater is on while you are running the bilge blower.


2. - 4 or 5 gallons will be plenty to account for your intended use.

Re: Stus-List Diesel Heaters and installation

2016-02-06 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
This popped up in a search on the Good Old Boat site:

HYDRONIC HEAT

I am planning on installing a hydronic heater system on my 1978 Morgan 382.
The article by Graham Collins in the September 2012 issue is perfectly
timed. I do have a couple of questions for Graham. One: if during warm
weather, we need hot water for showers but not cabin heat, does not turning
on the radiator fans prevent the heat from coming up? Two: how many amps
does the system draw with the heater and both radiator fans going?
*–Jim Cleary*
GRAHAM REPLIES

Excellent questions.

*One*: With the fans turned off there is not an appreciable heat increase
in the cabin, but obviously there must be some. I have been considering
modifying the system simply because it would be more efficient to only heat
the water tank if that is desired. To do so one could add a Y valve and a T
such that the fluid can be directed only through the water heater.

*Two*: Per the specification sheets, the Espar unit draws 4 amps on high,
1.9 on low. The fans in the radiators draw .9 (large) and .35 (small) each.
The Espar runs on high until the recirculating fluid reaches the set point
(160F), at which time it throttles back to low. In practice, my system
takes about 20 minutes with the Espar running on high to heat the 6-gallon
water tank, a bit more if the radiators are also on. Thus for my usual use,
the energy consumption is about 3 amp hrs. and about .07 gallons of fuel.
Hope that helps!

One of our fellow CnC listers did a Hydronic install in his own boat and
had an article published in the magazine Good Old Boat about it:

HOT WATER, WARM BOAT
BY GRAHAM COLLINS

A hydronic system extends the sailing (and showering) season. Our C&C 35,
Secret Plans, was previously used as a racing boat, so the hot-water system
was stripped out at some time before we purchased her. As I’m not a fan of
cold showers, this had to be addressed. We also wanted to be able to heat
the boat so we could extend our cruising season a bit longer into the
spring and fall. We keep the boat on a mooring, so shorepower is not
typically available. The available fuel sources were diesel and propane,
and we wanted to install only one system...

Stus-List Diesel Heaters and installation

2016-02-06 Thread Tom Buscaglia via CnC-List
Speaking of diesel heaters, ever since we brought Alera out from Lake Ontario I 
have wanted to install a hydronic heater so that in addition to heat we would 
have hot water.  So, every year when I go to the Seattle Boat show I gather 
materials and every the the amount of boat bucks, and my fear of screwing the 
installation up makes me put it off another year.

Anyone have a hydronic setup?
