This is gonna look really weird in an archive search if someone is

A gentle reminder here to trim the thread and modify subject line please.

I'm checking the emails sporadically these days so things like this

Re: Stus-List Bilge Pump for C 29-2

[Gary Nylander via CnC-List]

Tom, which pump did you buy? I am in the same situation as you and Michael 
Brown – little room for a pump (30-1). Water collects down there and helps 
soften the mast step, which is not good. I managed to get a small Rule pump in 
the sump when the mast was out - which is working OK (with a check valve in the 
area immediately aft of the mast). But…. I think the pump has broken loose from 
its mount and is not emptying the sump completely.

 

So, I want to supplement what I have with a self-priming one I can put under 
the dinette seat and keep the area dry.

 

The Wale Gulper 320 looks good, but I was wondering if there are others.

 

Thanks, Gary Nylander

Bruce,

 

I searched without success for a pump to fit that space and decided to get a 
self-priming diaphragm pump instead.  The pump can be mounted in another 
location and the pickup hose will fit in front of the keel nut.

Re: Stus-List Bilge Pump for C 29-2

[Dennis C. via CnC-List]

When I purchased Touche', it had an impeller style pump in the settee
locker near the sump with a suction hose lead down into the sump.  I
removed it and installed a more traditional in-sump centrifugal pump.

I often question why I did that.  Sometimes think about going back to the
impeller style pump as long as the intake has a good screen.

Bill,
You have Edson pedestal steering on a 25 Mk2?  Inquiring minds would love to 
see a photo or two of how it is configured.  Does it use the single cable 
(push/pull) system with an internal cable bracket or the RLA (remote linear 
actuator) with a miniature quadrant inside a box that passes through the 
transom and connects with a linkage to a bracket on the side of the rudder?  If 
the latter, the steering cables run inside conduit which should be lubricated 
with a Teflon based grease called SuperLube.  There is a special conduit grease 
cup that can be installed to facilitate lubrication.  What isn’t a good idea is 
to spray something like WD 40 down the cables, hoping to provide adequate lube, 
since the inside of the conduit is lined with Teflon which doesn’t particular 
care for petroleum lubricants.  Lubrication of the chain inside the pedestal 
should also be achieved using Superlube for the wheel shaft bearings and a 
light application of 30w motor oil on the chain.  Greasing the chain creates a 
sticky mess which attracts dirt and contaminates the wheel brake (if you have 
one).
I toyed with the idea of wheel steering when I was both an Edson employee and a 
25Mk 1 owner, but parts for both systems were becoming a bit scarce and I 
wasn’t sure I’d want to always steer from behind the wheel in the cockpit.  I 
would race the boat periodically and using a tiller with an extension allowed 
me to get my weight out on the rail to help keep the boat a bit flatter when 
the breeze picked up.
Best of luck with your 25.  I owned mine for 14 years and it was a great boat!

Back on topic.. I'm close to wrapping up a minor new-owner update and cleaning 
of our recently purchased 25MKII.  All that is left is an Interlux sprayed on 
bootstripe, buff and wax of the smooth area of the topsides, running rig 
install, clean all the sails, lube the Edson steerage, and splash her.  
Hopefully the saildrive, #1 doesn't leak, #2 it runs, and #3 runs well.

 

One of our headsails is a storm jib, a tiny little thing for sure.  Another can 
be reefed, the others are 115 and 150.  And two mains.  

 

Finally, in a marina of hundreds of sailboats, there is only one other C, 
then ours in two weeks.  They are very rare here in Texas.

Welcome to the list.  I raced on The Office with Joel in the 2014

I'm also another 35-3 owner.  If you have questions, you're in the right
