If it was really fouled then he probably would have noticed that it wasn't
achieving the same thrust to RPM or speed to rpm ratio.  This usually is
also accompanied by black smoke indicating too much engine load.

I have not heard any reports regarding the condition of the impeller.  I
have also not heard anything about the intake side of the heat exchanger.
I'd definitely be checking both of those.  Also the belt on the impeller
can be difficult to get tight enough to prevent slipping.

You might consider using a garden hose to lightly pressurize the raw water
system.  You could even do it by shoving the hose up the through-hull from
outside.  (you'll need the dive gear again)  Then with the boat securely
tied, load up the engine.

 Good Day Everyone.  Now that the sailing season is upon us life is good again. 
 Life would be even better if I was able to use my autohelm.  I have purchased 
an Raymarine EV200 linear drive unit and am trying to figure out how to install 
it below deck.  As all C&C owners know there is very little room at the best of 
times and it appears that when they made the LF38, autohelm was never even a 
consideration. I was wondering if there are any other LF owners out there that 
have successfully installed a linear below deck drive that would be willing to 
pass on their installation process.  Photos would also be appreciated. Life is 
good on a boat, even when you are fixing her. Good sailing and hope to talk 
soon. JasonStarship LF38Lake Winnipeg, Manitoba

Stus-List mast collar tangs C& C 33-2

2016-05-30 Thread doug.welch--- via CnC-List
When I was rigging my new to me 33-2 we couldn't locate one of the the mast 
collar tangs so I had a friend fabricate a duplicate. Both are now misaligned 
and the holes are about 1/4 inch too high to slip the bolt in (the boat is 
fully rigged). My friends have different opinions on this.  One says release 
the rigging and the tangs will slightly deform the cabin top when we reset the 
mast. Another days remake the tangs so the bolts line up with jokes in the mast 
when it's fully rigged. Looking for help from you folks.

Cheers,Doug

  Good day.  I'm asking because I just purchased my boat, but it is 2,000 miles

  I'm about to order a Isotherm 2551 Compact SP water cooled refrigeration 
system in my 1988 C&C 30MkII ice box.

  It uses a kitchen sink thru hull self pumping fitting in place of the galley 
sink drain thru hull.  The instructions for thru hull installation says 

  The skin fitting is to be mounted in the hull instead of existing fitting for 
the galley sink waste water. The hole in the hull shall have a diameter of 60 
mm (2½”).


  Anyone know what the galley sink waste water thru hull diameter is?  I wonder 
if I will have to enlarge the hull?


  Thank you.

Re: Stus-List winches were too powerful?

2016-05-30 Thread Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List
We had electric Lewmar 43 for Primaries when we bought Persistence.  During the 
delivery I noted that anyone with a tendency to over sheet liked using the 
electric winches.  I quickly turned off the power to the winches before someone 
broke something.  I really did not like the electric winches.  When manually 
using were very stiff.  Servicing them was awful.  The winch had to be unbolted 
from the coaming or the motor dropped to get at all the pawls.  We had manual 
Lewmar 43 ST on coachroof.  We moved them to coaming as primary and replaced 
with Lewmar 30ST on coachroof.  Then we traded the old Lewmar 43 electric even 
for new Lemar 40 ST which we use as secondary winches.  The entire setup is 
very much better

The electrics sucked

A few years back, I managed a friend's Hylas 54 with Antal electric primary 
winches (54s maybe?).  Once when the owner was on board, he didn't put enough 
wraps on the winch and fed the jib sheet into the jaws of the self tailer and 
pushed the button.  Managed to bend the line stripper down about 1" (Chrome

To powerful - yea well we did break one of the teeth off on a big triple speed

it was gone - to expensive to replace, the secondary winches moved up, and we'd

Re: Stus-List Radar power wire

2016-05-30 Thread Tim Goodyear via CnC-List
Hi Danny, my musings on negative vs screen:

The negative wire will have current flowing through it to power the radar and, 
because of the voltage drop from one end to the other, will not be at precisely 
the same potential as it exits the radar as the negative post.  The screen 
should have very limited current (it is not part of the power circuit) and 
therefore should be at the same potential as the negative post.  Voltage drop 
will depend on the wire size / length and power draw of the appliance.

Re: Stus-List Radar power wire

2016-05-30 Thread Danny Haughey via CnC-List
Thank you Fred.
I'll try to remember to gather all the manuals and bring then along on my next 
trip to the boat. 
So, the start battery is quite close,  directly under the helm.  Would it be 
beneficial to run that green/screen wire directly to the start battery negative 
post?  Or is that simply not necessary being that the breaker box is already so 
close to the same battery?  
I guess, according to the manual, a direct line to the start battery wild be 
the preferred solution.  
my confusion is,  If the grounding bars in the panel are already bonded,  this 
green"screen" wire  seems redundant.  What benefit is the added green 'screen' 
wire if it just ties to the same ground post as the black ground wire?

Danny — RTFM…   :^)
Page 16 of the HD Digital Radome Scanner user’s guide:
Grounding

These grounding requirements are applicable for Raymarine equipment supplied 
with a separate drain wire or screen.

• The product power cable drain conductor (screen) must be connected to a 
common ground point.

• It is recommended that the common ground point is a bonded ground, i.e. with 
the ground point connected to battery negative, and situated as close as 
possible to the battery negative terminal. If a bonded ground system is not 
possible, a non-bonded RF ground may be used.
So tie it with the black wire to the power source (DC breaker).

Re: Stus-List Overheating YANMAR

2016-05-30 Thread Marek Dziedzic via CnC-List
I know that the mix should be 50/50, but what happens if it is more antifreeze 
and less water? I don,t remember reading anything about any ill effects, but 
let us know if you know of something that I don’t. 

thanks

If your engine is fresh water cooled confirm your anti freeze mix is no more 
than 50:50.
Yes it will over heat, been there.
