Stus-List RUDDERS

2016-03-20 Thread Alex Giannelia via CnC-List
Here is my $.02 (CDN) worth on the rudder question:  After a long time with 
looking up NACA designs, discussing with serious designers on boat forums and 
reading the Marcaj book on the aero-hydro dynamics of sailing AND designing a 
new and improved foil, I decided to give Competition Composites a try with mine 
for my CC 35-2.  I gave them my old rudder and they build up a brand new one 
built around my old post and while I haven't raced since I relaunched 2 years 
ago, the rudder feels great.


Thanks,

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

My keel joint seems to be opening up; there wasn't much sign of it at haul
out, but now it's noticeable. Also, you can see something oozing from the
crack. Whatever it is has an oily texture so I'm guessing it's coming from
the bilge. In the first photo, the vertical stain is the same oily ooze
coming from a welt higher up on the keel stub. I think I have to address it
because if something can get out, then surely water can get in. Three
options: a)rout out the crack and fill with epoxy; b) fill it with 5200 (on
the premise that the keel 'wants' to flex laterally, so fill it with
something flexible); or c)see how it progresses this season and see if I
have an autumn project? I don't think (c) is the best option. I've done this
kind of work before - I'd appreciate hearing what the Listers say.

 

http://jainslieblog.blogspot.ca/

 

Could this have been caused by the way it's sitting in the cradle? FYI, this
keel is a modified bulb, done by MarsKeel about 9 years ago. Thanks for any
input.

Re: Stus-List Fire blankets, beer & wool

2016-03-20 Thread Russ & Melody via CnC-List

Good point Bill.

Does your CO2 bottle have a "welding head" on it?
I suspect you were being tongue-in-cheek but it gets us thinking...
Does the CO2 fire extinguisher have a dip tube for liquid 
expectorant? Would a horn on a beer system CO2 (welding head) bottle 
valve work in a pinch?, say to a nod to multi-purpose.


I too brew beer and have a couple of small CO2 bottles and some corny 
kegs to purpose for cruising. Mmm.


As for fire blankets, it's good that the Admiral is a natural fibre 
snob. Cotton & wool are excellent choices for fire blankets and 
duvets. They smoulder, not flash up like synthetics, so toss the 
blankie on it and follow with the nearest water jug, beer, wine, 
whatever and you have a good story with a plus, if you're not putting 
out fires they're warmer if it's damp out (like 7 months on the Wet 
Coast) when used for the principal purpose.

CO2 and halon are very nice ways to put out a fire without

CO2 extinguishers tend to be fairly big and halon is expensive now.

Brian,

As you are using Gmail, try this, it may help.

Got to Gmail Settings, Setting (the little "gear" top right on a browser)

Go to the "Labs" tab (third from the right across the top).

Search for a lab:

Quote selected text
Ryan A

Quote the text you have selected when you reply to a message. (Now works
with the mouse too!)


Enable it and see if that helps with replies from the Digest.

Unfortunately you'll still have to edit the subject line, this wont' help
with that.

Brian,

Did you get a quote from Southshore Yachts in Niagara-on-the-Lake?  They
have the original moulds and the CAN$ to US$ exchange is very much in your
favour right now. (30% discount).

I seem to think Foss Foam Products of Florida may have the correct mould as
well.

Re: Stus-List To foam or not to foam...

2016-03-20 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Not sure how a piece of line would keep a furled sail flat, as it should
be. I see the wisdom of a foam luff. I regularly see furled sailed in highs
winds with a big belly to them, exactly what you don't want cf course. If I
were buying a new sail, I would definitely have  a foam luff or plan on
head sail changes when the wind pipes, which is what we do.

Re: Stus-List 37+ Why?

2016-03-20 Thread Edd Schillay via CnC-List
Gary,

I asked him at the C Rendezvous in Mystic back in 2012 (we are going again -- 
see cncnortheast.com). 

Rob initially designed a 37 foot boat with a practically vertical bow and stern 
(much like a J) and in just about every way, it is a 37 foot boat. 

But the look kept bugging him. So, and I quote, he "put $40 of fiberglass onto 
the bow and another $40 of fiberglass into the stern."  Same is true for the 34 
series. 

The marketing department didn't want to change the name, so it stayed 37 (and 
34) for a while (adding R, XL or +). Eventually they started calling it the 
37/40 and then after the "40 Series". 

It does save a bit on dock fees and winter storage to call it a 37 :-)


All the best,

Edd

Re: Stus-List Idler Plate Photo Explanation

2016-03-20 Thread Dave Godwin via CnC-List
Chuck,

Thanks for that. I didn’t go look at the link to Resolute’s fix until now. Yes, 
I have a “traditional” setup with the idler plate bolted to the underside of 
the cockpit sole. And as you say, with the length from the idler pulleys to the 
quadrant, the angle should see a negligible change.

Like you, my idler plate is actually in pretty good shape but since I’m busy 
turning a sow’s ear into a silk purse (actually, I love our C…) and I have a 
brand new Edson Classic pedestal I’m going to replace the whole shebang.

And on another note, every time I have worked with the folks at Edson I have 
had nothing but a good experience. They are at the top of my list of marine 
manufacturers.
