Re: Stus-List 1981 C 36' - Fresh Water Tank Replacement

[detroito91]

Tim. Did you try and plasric weld tank yourself or tank repair?  I had 16" 
crack in my tank. Had Virginia tank services weld it.  $75.00 later and 2 hours 
time i was going back to boat to install. Its only been 3 months but i don't 
anticipate any problems. It was alot better than the cost to replace the 
tank....Another thought would be a rubber bladder tank from west marine. 
Quicker and cheaper than building a tank. Rick brass went that way.Jim

1981 C 36' - Fresh Water Tank Replacement
Both 19 gallon tanks, port and starboard, are leaking in multiple locations. 
They are vee-bottom four sided tanks with recesses in the top where stiffeners 
under the cover plate fit. I tried plastic welding but the results were 
questionable in terms of reliability.
The manufacturer, Kracor, says new ones can be made to order in 3-4 weeks if I 
contact a local boat yard to place the order. This sounds expensive and 
cumbersome.
What are my other options? Is it easy to contact a local tank company and have 
a tank copied at a competitive cost and reasonable lead-time?

Re: Stus-List Cold weather [was Re: Wrapping LifeSling with Sunbrella]

[jackbrennan via CnC-List]

I read a newspaper story that said the pythons and boas in the Everglades have figured out how to burrow into turtle holes and similar places to stay warm.  Sooner or later, the gators will figure out how to eat them. I'm still puzzled how those snakes eat raccoons. Wild raccoons down here are large, quick, nasty and aggressive. I wouldn't think the snakes would be that fast.Also, I'm glad I don't take canoe trips in the Glades anymore.Our friends in Fort Lauderdale reported dead lizards. Once they're frozen, that's it.

Stus-List pulling a prawn pot using a boom (not crab pot)

[Jeremy Ralph via CnC-List]

Ooops.  Meant prawn pot :)

The pots here for Dungeness crabs are at around 50-100ft and easy enough to
pull.  Spot prawns are 250 to 350ft and pulling it manually is back
breaking - hence this boom rig.

Lots of deep water here in Howe Sound and the Strait of Georgia > 1000ft.

Crab pots here are in 4-20 feet of water usually. The deepest water I can
possibly find is 189 feet or so off the south end of Kent Island.

Re: Stus-List pulling a crab pot using a boom - now water depths

[Dennis C. via CnC-List]

I think the deepest in Lake Pontchartrain is about 23 feet.  Mississippi
Sound isn't much better.

There is one oddity in my area.  There is a scour area in The Rigolets near
the Hwy 90 bridge (approx location 30°10'33.96"N  89°44'43.04"W) where the
depth is about 140 feet.  Depths nearby are 15 feet.

Re: Stus-List Small lead weight "sewn" into anchor rode?

Hi Russ, 
Yes, the boat did race in its past life, and a Kelley stop would seem 
imminently logical.
Thanks!

Hi Bruce,


The other guys are on the right track regarding kellet associations. But
six ounces is ridiculously small of course, for the purpose, seeing as 10
- 50 percent of anchor weight is good.


I suspect your little weights were sewn in to act as a kellet
"stop" since it doesn't do much good if you let the weight
slide too close to the hook. With a system like this it would be
practical to eliminate chain. Did this boat race in a past life?


Or Jim could have the best view.


Cheers,
Russ

Hello all,


On both of my old anchor rodes, there is a small (6 oz or so) lead weight
with a line through the middle, with the line on both ends woven into the
rode so that the weight stays held up against the line in place.  On
one line, the weight is about 10 feet from the end connected to the
chain.  On the other one, it is more like 20 feet.


What would be the purpose of these small weights?


Thanks for the insight,
