Re: Stus-List Best new tablet for nav/general use

2016-10-31 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I am not offering my opinion either way, but all of the delivery skippers
I've met of late rely exclusively on their personal tablets rather than
owners electronics for a number of reasons. They trust them far offshore.

A ruggedized watertight case is mandatory and, as with anything electronic,
a back up of course.

Stus-List Force on the midship cleat

2016-10-31 Thread Jeremy Ralph via CnC-List
I'm keen on these toe rail midship cleats that CnCers have been
recommending and thinking of ordering some:

http://www.csjohnson.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info_id=23

They're rated for a load of 2,000lb.  Assuming my 10,000 displacement C
is on a nylon spring line (with rubber snubbers) tied to this in a 40kn
wind, will the cleat hold?

Thanks,

Re: Stus-List VMG at the helm.

2016-10-31 Thread RANDY via CnC-List
The SailTimer guys have additional arguments against VMG: 
http://sailtimerapp.com/VMG.html . Racers want to sail the route that will 
require the least time to get to the next mark or finish line. The problem is 
that the "least time route" depends on complex and dynamic variables like a 
boat's polars, the current wind angle and speed relative to the angle to the 
next mark or line, maybe even the direction and speed of any current in the 
water, etc. So a VMG calculated using simple geometry is too simplistic for the 
complex realities. Maybe some people mean "least time route" when they say 
"VMG", even though they are not the same thing according to that SailTimer web 
page and article linked from it. SailTimer's arguments make sense to me, but I 
don't know how sophisticated other electronics systems out there may be. The 
SailTimer app updates its "optimal tacking route" based on current wind data 
from the SailTimer wind instrument. I've yet to use it in a race to tell me 
when to tack, but the idea is interesting.

Why no VMG? 


Velocitek created the world's first GPS-based VMG tool back in 2006. VMG was 
also a prominent feature on the Velocitek SC-1, the ProStart’s direct 
predecessor. When several other companies around the world tried to copy the 
SC-1’s success they also included a VMG feature on their products. Velocitek’s 
tag line even used to be “Velocity. Made Good.” 

The reason why we decided to drop VMG as a feature on the ProStart is that we 
couldn't find any professional sailors who used this feature while racing. The 
main reason the pros don't like to look at VMG when they are racing is that the 
boat's momentum makes it difficult to use these measurements to find an optimal 
heading. 

As an example, imagine this: 

You are on a broad reach and then you decide to try pointing lower. Initially 
your speed will not change very much because of your boat's momentum. The 
indicated VMG will jump up (same speed as before, better angle). You are happy; 
the instrument seems to be telling you that soaking low was a good idea. 

As you hold your course steady at this new angle, your speed will eventually 
drop and, as you are falling off a plane, the instrument will finally come 
around to telling you the truth: this new, deeper angle was, in fact, a very 
bad idea. 


The trouble is that by now you are losing boats like crazy and you're going to 
have to head way up to get planing again; the damage is done. 




The above notwithstanding, these measurements can be useful for training, 
especially when you don't have other boats to sail against. A GPS VMG 
instrument can help you figure out what the optimal settings and angles are for 
your boat in different conditions. It's just that these things need to be 
figured out before you are actually racing. 

Our goal with the ProStart was to make an extremely easy to use instrument that 
only incorporated the features that pro sailors use when they are racing. There 
is definitely a good justification for selling a VMG product as a training tool 
but the feature did not fit with our brief for the ProStart. 

One product that is still on the market and does VMG calculation is the Rockbox

I do not believe that a tablet of any kind is a good enough navigation
instrument (I have a Garmin 720 and I trust it much more (I can see the
screen in full sunlight without problems, it is completely waterproof and I
can operate it with keys (not touch)), but I find that if you want a tablet
for anything you are much better off with a low cost ( I don't necessarily
mean cheap) tablet that you can use as disposable. I had very good success
with a Dell Venue Pro (Windows), an Acer (also Windows) and an ASUS Android
one. I also find that the 7-8 inch tablets are much less prone to shattering
problems (they are simply much easier to handle and they have a size that is
much better for keeping in one's hand). The cost can be as low as just
around $100 (8" Android) or around $200 for an 8" Windows. For that money
you can break 3 and buy the 4th and you just come about to the cost of the
Surface Pro or worse yet to the cost of a cheap iPad.

None of the generally available tablets is waterproof or even hardened, so I
would not use it in the cockpit where it might be subjected to water damage.


If you want a keyboard, you can easily buy a BT keyboard for under $30. Add
410 more an you have a complete system with a carrying case and keyboard.

I have a Surface at work and I don't find the screen any better than 1/4
price Dell Venue (or even 1/10 price Acer). It is only bigger. True, the
case is metal, but if you drop it a few times on the ground, the screen will
break.

A word of caution: If you buy a Windows tablet, spend more and get a 64 GB
version (or bigger). With 32 GB you will have a major juggling task if you
need to make a major system upgrade. This unfortunately means that the
majority of tablets that are available on sale are out.

Hi all,

I have a Garmin GPSmap 740 chartplotter and a Garmin radar, but I am looking
to buy a tablet computer (possibly a Microsoft surface or an iPad) to
supplement the Garmin unit as an electronic chartplotter (running navionics
and raster charts) as well as just being my general computer - for writing
emails, web browsing, and using Microsoft word.

I was looking hard at the Microsoft surface because it comes with a
keyboard, however it does not have an internal GPS receiver.   I'm sure they
make USB GPS receivers though.

My requirements are:  a good keyboard, a touch screen, GPS (for running nav
apps) and it needs to be sturdy tough enough to hold up reasonably well on a
boat.  I have destroyed two iPads (the screens shattered) by traveling with
them and being a tad clumsy, so i don't trust myself with iPads anymore...
I'm looking for something hardier.

Would love to hear what people out there are using on their boats.

Thanks in advance,
Ryan

Stus-List Best new tablet for nav/general use

2016-10-31 Thread Ryan Doyle via CnC-List
Hi all,

I have a Garmin GPSmap 740 chartplotter and a Garmin radar, but I am looking to 
buy a tablet computer (possibly a Microsoft surface or an iPad) to supplement 
the Garmin unit as an electronic chartplotter (running navionics and raster 
charts) as well as just being my general computer - for writing emails, web 
browsing, and using Microsoft word.

I was looking hard at the Microsoft surface because it comes with a keyboard, 
however it does not have an internal GPS receiver.   I'm sure they make USB GPS 
receivers though.

My requirements are:  a good keyboard, a touch screen, GPS (for running nav 
apps) and it needs to be sturdy tough enough to hold up reasonably well on a 
boat.  I have destroyed two iPads (the screens shattered) by traveling with 
them and being a tad clumsy, so i don't trust myself with iPads anymore...  I'm 
looking for something hardier.

Would love to hear what people out there are using on their boats.

Thanks in advance,
Ryan

 Funny you should mention
 a midships cleat.  My wife has been begging me for a

 time and made some amsteel loops that I luggage tagged onto
 the toe rail at the midships position.  I tie my mooring
 line to it with a sheet bend.  The amsteel is rated at

This was a great fall weekend on the Chesapeake.  Breezy out of the NW
Saturday, Southerly and warm yesterday.
My wife is due the Bay Bridge run Sunday.  She did it 2 years ago.  When
she signed up in August I though it would be cool if I sailed along as she
ran the bridge.  It was one of the coldest days of my life.
I get to relive that experience this Sunday.
We have company coming in for Thanksgiving.  They live near Bayfield WI.
They want to go for a sail while they are here enjoying the 'warmth'.
After that, the boats gets hauled for some overdue TLC.

The simplest way when you are going upwind is get your crew out of the
cockpit. They should be on the rail in the middle of the boat. Our boats
like to sail flat and if you can get the transom out of the water you will
be faster as well.

Stus-List VMG at the helm.

2016-10-31 Thread Charlie Nelson via CnC-List

Hey all;
 
Although I have VMG (or at least its approximate equivalent) available from my 
Garmin 746 Chart plotter and can display it on one of my 4 Garmin displays 
above the companionway, I find it difficult to see it with crew in the cockpit 
and I don't like putting my head into the boat looking down at the 
chart-plotter mounted above the binnacle while I am trying my best to go hard 
on the wind.
 
OK-OK--I know this hardly qualifies as a serious problem!!
 
Nonetheless, I am looking for the simplest solution that allows me to see the 
VMG either on my iphone (hard to read with sunglasses on), or a 'smart watch' 
which may have the same problem. I realize I could use another battery powered 
GPS but I would need to mount it and operate it while trying to get my head in 
to the race at the same time.

Ideally glasses with a heads-up display of it would have it in front of me no 
matter what else was going on. 

Any listers have solutions or ideas? My simpleminded thought is to put the RC 
or starting line in as a MOB mark and then use either the largest negative VMG 
upwind from it to guide me at the helm and the largest positive VMG downwind 
from it find the best AWA. This would likely give me the best course to steer 
no matter how true the course is to windward.

Thanks,

Stus-List Radar mount

2016-10-31 Thread Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List
A question to this list about mounting a radar

I recently stumbled into a situation where a 5 year old Garmin radome that was 
the exact correct model for our Garmin GPSMAP 740 chartplotter became available 
for just under $500.  Given this great price and our recent night trip up the 
coast in heavy fog we decided we should snatch this up.

We like to be able to do a bit of cruising on our boat but we also like to do 
some racing.  As with all the other cruisy stuff (dodger, bimini, etc) I like 
the option of being able to install it only for a cruise and leave it home the 
rest of the time.  I do not wish to have the radome mounted on the mast for 
this reason (and the wear and other issues on the jib).  Was thinking of either 
a backstay mounted solution or a removable radar pole at the stern.  Something 
like the Scanstrut SC100 series.  The issue I have found is that the backstay 
mount and removable pole mounts are extremely expensive and we are not even 
certain how much we will use this.

Any advice from others on this list or knowledge of a used pole or perhaps info 
on how to manufacture my own?

Thanks

Mike

Re: Stus-List SA/D Ratio

2016-10-31 Thread Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List
Agree.
The “New C” has no relation to the old at all other than the name. There was 
a thread connecting the newest and the oldest C all through the various 
bankruptcies and re-orgs, but this is a new wavy logo and boats that had no 
relationship at all to any previous C I guess the other choice was no C, 
so this is still better and I got a ton of clothes with the old straight line 
logo for cheap ☺

Ron,
Essentially, Ford still has a member of the Ford family at the helm of a 
company that has “evolved” as automotive and transportation designs have become 
modernized.  If Hyundai was to “buy” the brand name “Pontiac” and renamed the 
Hyundai Elantra a “GTO” or “Firebird”, would it be a Pontiac or a Hyundai?   I 
submit that it would still be a Hyundai.
The C Brand today exists only as a marketing tool for the founders of the now 
defunct Summit Yachts and whilst the current C 30 has found a niche in the 
“mini-GP” owner-driver market, it has far more DNA with previous Mark Mills IRC 
 Summit Yachts designs than any boats ever built in Niagara on the Lake.
It will be interesting to see if the current C 30 holds its value and has the 
same desirability of the C Yachts that we associate with the brand.
