Stus-List Wiring Bilge Direct to Battery

2017-07-30 Thread Chris Hobson via CnC-List
Need to wire the bilge pump direct to the battery and bypass the distribution 
panel. Currently have to turn battery on for it to work. Simple enough, just 
not something I've done before. Has anyone wired this or know how to install a 
switch (3-way) to do so? No I'm not an electrician and yes I'm aware of the 
consequences of electricity.

Re: Stus-List Wiring Bilge Direct to Battery

2017-07-30 Thread RANDY via CnC-List
Hi Chris, 

I just did that this year. It's straightforward. You just have to have all the 
supplies and tools. On my 30-1 the three-way switches for the bilge pumps (I 
have two) are mounted under the galley sink, through the plywood separating the 
starboard lazaret from the space under the galley sink. If you mount your 
switch there, you'll need a drill and jigsaw to cut a hole for the switch. 

Then you'll need some ring terminals matching the size of your battery's studs 
and the size of your wire. If the wiring on your switch and pump is 16-gauge 
like mine, it's easiest to get bulk 16-gauge wire in red and black. You'll need 
some 16-gauge butt connectors to connect the wires on the back of the switch to 
the wires on the pump and to the wire run over to the battery. And you'll need 
a wire cutter, wire stripper, and a crimping tool. 

In my case since I have two batteries and two pumps, I mounted terminal strips 
enclosed in junction boxes to the plywood near the batteries (port side), and 
near the switches (starboard side). I connected the positive studs of both 
batteries to one terminal strip, and the negative studs to the other. Then I 
did one run of red and black over to the terminal strips on the starboard side 
where the pump switch leads connected. And of course you'll want some cable 
clamps to run the wires neatly and keep them in place. 

You can get all the stuff you need at West Marine, though the tools are 
probably less expensive elsewhere. I think I bought my crimper at Harbor 
Freight. And a good reference on boat electrical systems is 
https://www.amazon.com/Caseys-Complete-Illustrated-Sailboat-Maintenance/dp/0071462848

Re: Stus-List Wiring Bilge Direct to Battery

2017-07-30 Thread Dennis C. via CnC-List
Chris,

I prefer to connect the bilge pump's positive supply to one of the battery
posts on the back of the battery switch and keep the wire off the battery.
On the back of your battery switch you'll see 3 posts.  One will be labeled
"1" and one will be labeled "2".  The third is probably labeled "COM".
They correspond to Battery bank 1, Battery Bank 2 and the positive supply
to your breaker panel ("COM").

By attached to 1 or 2 you are in effect, wiring it to one of the
batteries.  Just at the end of the battery supply cable.

Others have given you good advice on the rest of the wiring.

Re: Stus-List Wiring Bilge Direct to Battery

2017-07-30 Thread Josh Muckley via CnC-List
Consider wiring so that there are 2 "power supplys".  The float switch can
start the pump directly from the battery and the manual switch can start it
from the normal switch board supply.  This way the auto float switch will
always work.

Re: Stus-List 35 MK III

Hi Eric,

If you are serious about a 35, check out my boat. 
No issues, I plan to haul in late August (or 
earlier if opportunity presents) to do regular 
maintenance. I didn't put in the ad that the 
bottom was prep'd and waterproofed, Intercoat 
2000, with the boat out of the water for 8 months 
many years ago. She shows no blisters at each haulout.

Just across "the Pond" from Vancouver.

Cheers, Russ
Sweet

I recently bought a C&C 35 MkII in Vancouver, Fell in love with the boat. Â

I had a survey done on it. I knew there were 
some issues with it, I had what I thought was a 
very close look at it. As it happens the 
surveyor found a lot more problems to my 
surprise.  so I reluctantly let it go.  I'd go 
for another one in a heartbeat.


I've never had a close look at a Mk III, but 
despite my bitter disappointment I'd say go for 
it if the boat resonates with you.  The key is 
obviously is to make sure you get a purchase 
survey done on it.  The boat I looked at had a 
3 year old insurance survey, and the seller 
suggested it was "still good".  Ha!Â


Before you make an offer, check out the 
availability of marina slips in your area.


Good luck,
Eric

sure he would be reasonably priced as well.

Doug,

Nice boat, but my search area is limited to Lake 
Michigan. I don't want to even think about shipping a boat.


Thanks for the offer.

I'm looking for a boat and was wondering if 
there's a "boats for sale" section on 
cncphotoalbum.com ?


Is anyone familiar with this boat, or have any 
comments based on the scant information that's posted?
