Stus-List Polars available?

First I want to thank those who responded to my quest for info on JAM 
handicapping in a mixed JAM and spin fleet.I'm trying to get a handle on what 
the real differences are between boats using a chute and JAM.  To do that I 
need the polars for different boats.  I have them for the C&C 110 and 
J105.Based on Marchaj data, the beat speed is about equal to the speed of the 
boat on a reciprocal course.  Using that and the polars for the reciprocal 
course, I calc'd the difference between chute and JAM.  Surprisingly the 
Marchaj claim doesn't seem to apply to the J24 or J29.However, it would be nice 
to calc for some of the older boats as well.Does anyone have polars for the C&C 
30, 35 (mk 1 or 2 preferred but mk 3 also acceptable) and the 25?If so, could 
you send them to me for calc purposes?ThanksRon Wild CheriC&C 30STL

Paul, Edd & Ryan,

Please review recent message from Stu. Actually, it's more of a plea from Stu.

For this reply I trimmed about 10 pages of 
unnecessary content and bolded, below, the relevant point(s).


Not trying to be a dick-head about this but 
viewed form Stu's perspective, it diminishes the 
usefulness of his list and he pays a lot more in bit fees (bandwidth).

Re: Stus-List Packing Gland to Prop Shaft Tube Hose

2016-03-02 Thread Dr. Mark Bodnar via CnC-List


A friend was telling me about his packing gland failure while sailing 
into a quiet anchorage in the BVI's.  Motoring through a channel solo he 
suddenly noticed water coming above the floor boards.
A frantic anchor drop he was pumping to get ahead of the water and 
trying to figure out where the water was coming from.
He stemmed most of the flow with a bicycle inner tube wrapped around the 
gland and cranked tight with a couple of hose clamps.  Was able to stay 
the night with a bit of hand pumping, got towed out of the channel the 
next morning and sailed to a marina.
He suggested that everyone should have a couple lengths of bicycle tire 
tube  and pipe clamps avail.

Reminds me that I need to add that to my kit.

In my experience, propeller nuts should not be overly tight.  They should be

A prop nut so installed should loosen easily.

Opinions may vary on this depending on prop manufacturer's instructions.

Contact Gori. They can supply you with replacement pins, but they need to know 
everything about the prop, and I mean everything. There were several different 
configurations of essentially the same prop. This I had from a conversation 
with them at the Miami boat show last month. I have a 13 X 9 on my 27.

A friend has an old 2-blade Gori folding propeller on his C&C 35 Mk.I

It had started unfolding incorrectly as the pins were worn enough to allow
the gear teeth to occasionally skip.  He took his to a local machine shop
and they made up two new, slightly oversize pins, drilled the prop out to
fit and it now works like new again.

I know for a fact is is a gori.  It looks like this:

Stus-List FM antenna?

2016-03-02 Thread Chuck Saur via CnC-List
You experts are the best!  I am ordering a Shakespeare antenna
splitter...as it appears that will be a very cheap but effective addition.
The FM receiver is 6" away from the VHF and the whole idea makes sense.
Will report in May when it gets installed.  Thanks guys!!

Now...has anyone replaced the indicator lights on the electrical panel (red
incandescents) with LED or similar?  My little lenses have either been
bonked and freed up to fall into the abyss of the liner (and two are now
missing).  Any advising out there?

(Yes, someday there will be a topic I might have advice to provide too...oh
well...)

Are you sure its a gori?  I've only ever heard of people re-pinning the
martec props.  Gori props kinda twist open as apposed to the martecs which
hinge.  The manufacturer of my Max-Prop (PYI) offers a rebuild service.  It
costs about 1/4 of the price of a new prop.

I choose the extra heavy duty hose - #147 in your link. A very thick and
substantial hose with a smooth outer wall which I prefer.  It doesn't have
great flexibility or tight bending radius if you needed that for
installation.

Its fine for underwaterline applications so long as the discharge is above

I had a hand pump connected to that type of hose that ran to a thru-hull in

There are products that are, supposedly, made for such work: CPES (by
Rotdoctor) and Git-Rot (BoatLife). Supposedly CPES penetrates better. Both
of them penetrate better than the normal epoxy resin. 

However, I have no personal experience on how well they preserve the wood. I
used Git-Rot in the past on a project almost exactly like yours (rudder on
my C&C 24; it seems that they are very similar). The rudder is still in one

I'd avoid silicone at all costs  it doesn't last that long and it's near
impossible to fully remove the residue when re-sealing.

Others can correct me here but it seems to me the best approach would be to
remove the gudgeon, enlarge the holes and dig out any punky plywood and let
the area dry out and re-fill them 1st with clear epoxy (soaks in) and then

Thanks for the info.  That makes perfect sense.  The surveyor said the lower
gudgeon was leaking.  When I get it down I'll open it up and put a heat lamp
on it.  Things like this make me thankful to have a 25.  What a bigger pain

Do I seal the gudgeon with silicone, or is there a fitting that needs to be

Stus-List Bilge hose

2016-03-02 Thread Bradley Lumgair via CnC-List
None of the hoses on my 33 MkII have ever been changed, so that's one of this 
winters projects. I've done the exhaust and purchased the hose for the 
sanitary, but am a bit unsure when it comes to the bilge. The original set-up 
is a diaphragm bilge hand pump up in the cockpit and another in the settee next 
the mast base. There's got to be 60 feet of 1-1/2 inch white (yellowish) 
brittle old hose under the floorboards. I have found either white or black 
corrugated hose for not a lot of money or clear with either a black or white 
plastic spiral (smooth inside) for more than $3 per foot. It sounds like the 
clear is better hose but it's been suggested that it's not intended for long 
runs, nor below waterline installation yet it's sold as bilge hose..? The 
surveyor recommended an automatic bilge pump as well. The boat is generally

Yes, left a lot out. I am not sure how detailed, or long, to make these posts.
I guess the point is that the splitters work well. I have the Shakespeare unit
installed with a Shakespeare loaded whip. I was commenting that if the FM

Re: Stus-List Rudder crack C&C 25

2016-03-02 Thread Peter Fell via CnC-List
I'd avoid silicone at all costs  it doesn't last that long and it's near 
impossible to fully remove the residue when re-sealing.


Others can correct me here but it seems to me the best approach would be to 
remove the gudgeon, enlarge the holes and dig out any punky plywood and let 
the area dry out and re-fill them 1st with clear epoxy (soaks in) and then 
with thickened epoxy. Then once it's cured re-drill the holes.  Same idea as 
putting holes through your cored deck.

Rick,

Thanks for the info.  That makes perfect sense.  The surveyor said the lower 
gudgeon was leaking.  When I get it down I'll open it up and put a heat lamp 
on it.  Things like this make me thankful to have a 25.  What a bigger pain 
it'd be if I had to deal with a foam cored rudder with a rusted post.


Do I seal the gudgeon with silicone, or is there a fitting that needs to be 
replaced?


Thanks a lot,

I don't have that one, but I have a S-H unit that looks pretty much the same

I used my original transducer, so the adjustment was off when I first hooked it

The vertical whip antenna picks up the vertical version, which is

It may be that a FM specific dipole will work as well.

28.5" each side is the correct length for FM.

In the style of YMMV, if you have a well tuned VHF antenna with a 50' 
run to the spiltter, then another 10' run to
the radio trying to pick up a "college" station around 88 MHz with 
horizontal polarization is not going to work well.

I’m assuming a haul out over the winter months is a normal occurrence for you, 
so one is probably pretty safe in assuming the boat’s been painted with paint 
that is compatible with that (ablative). I believe a light sand or good scrub 
is needed to re-activate it prior to launch. Touching-up sounds like a good 
idea.
After buying my boat and dealing with an engine rebuild it had been over 2 
years since it was out, although I did have a diver scrub it down and check the 
zincs. Regardless it was nasty ... and I don’t think the PO had done a very 
good job the last time (actually he had a yard do it). So I took the plunge and 
did the complete strip (who knows how many coats were on it ... I think we 
counted 4 different colours). We used Franmar’s Soy–Strip. Then we fixed about 
a dozen blisters, redid the thru-hulls, pulled the shaft, new cutless bearing, 
new drippless stuffing box, fixed a crunched corner on the rudder, new fairing 
block for the depth transducer, did the epoxy barrier coat and of course new 
anti-fouling. Took us a month, while still working a full-time job. Whew!
It’s nice to be able to plan ahead for those sorts of jobs.

Re: Stus-List FM antenna?

2016-03-02 Thread Michael Brown via CnC-List

 
 The splitter works well, worth the price.

There are some technical challenges to consider. A VHF antenna will be tuned
( some better than others ) to 157 MHz. FM is 88 - 108 MHz.  The better the
VHF antenna the less FM signal strength it will pass through. The FM station
has a choice of polarizing the signal vertically, horizontally, most do both.
The vertical whip antenna picks up the vertical version, which is considered
to be more susceptible to interference.

It may be that a FM specific dipole will work as well.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/PHILMORE-5035-DIPOLE-FM-ANTENNA-w-MOTOROLA-PLUG-FITS-VINTAGE-VHF-SCANNERS-/151928946680

28.5" each side is the correct length for FM.

In the style of YMMV, if you have a well tuned VHF antenna with a 50' run to 
the spiltter, then another 10' run to
the radio trying to pick up a "college" station around 88 MHz with horizontal 
polarization is not going to work well.

I have the Shakespeare FM splitter.  I can't exactly tell how good the VHF 
antenna works but I can tell you that the FM is only mediocre.  Biggest 
problem is that my sail instrument package causes all types of interference.

Interesting! Do you have a bolt just aft of the mast like the couple of photos

Stus-List Do I need a new coat of bottom paint?

2016-03-02 Thread Jean-Francois J Rivard via CnC-List
As mentioned,  with a few maintenance dives you can probably get away with 
it this year, unless you're wanting to race and be competitive.

What you might want to do is wander around the yard on weekends to see if 
any one's got a little bit left over after their job.. You could touch 
yours up in the few bare spots for practically nothing (Or a few beers). 

I created a some bare spots when I sanded / burnished mine for racing, all 
it took to re-cover was a few swipes from the bottom of my buddy's can 
that was about to be thrown away..
 
Just a thought.

The problem with horizontal antennas is that they are more directional

swings at anchor.

I would say you at least need to sand the trouble spots and coat.  I had the 
yard do this for me for a few years before the bottom job on my last boat.  
they charge about 11 per foot to tape and paint and then time and material to 
sand.  I think it was costing about 500 to 600 a year for 33 foot boat. Danny

You can probably get away without.  You may grow more slime and soft growth

Re: Stus-List Removing prop

2016-03-02 Thread Ainslie via CnC-List
Thanks for all the input!

 

I'm fairly well set up for tools, pullers, heat etc, and I always leave the
nut on the threads when I'm pulling flywheels or harmonic balancers. It's
just a really good idea to hear about best practices from The Listers.
Thanks again, everybody - I'll let you know if anything entertaining
happens!

prop a 2X4 between the ground and one of blades. The 2X4 should be as close
to the hub as possibleon the prop end

Hi. I want to remove the propeller from my 35-3. It's a fixed 3-blade (15 R
14), and I'm looking for a folding prop. I have a line on a used one, but
want to be sure about shaft fit etc. The question is: how do I brace the
shaft to get the nut off? Put it in gear? Put a pipe-wrench to the anode on
the shaft? Or just grip the prop well enough to loosen the nut? And when the
nut's off, will the prop come off as easily as the one on my outboard, or
will I need a puller? Any tips would help. Thanks in advance.

Are you sure it is a right hand thread?  Otherwise, it seems time for
heat.  MAP gas is a lot hotter than propane (just sayin')

 In my experience, propeller nuts should not be overly tight.  They
 should be firmly snugged. If the hole for the cotter key doesn't line up, a
 new hole should be drilled in the shaft.

 A prop nut so installed should loosen easily.

 Opinions may vary on this depending on prop manufacturer's instructions.

Cotter pin. I tried an electric impact wrench with socket .Used a 2x4
across the hull with one of the blades wedged against. No joy. Would a
propane torch help?

Is there either a jam nut or a cotter pin, or both?
