Stus-List Gas consumption C&C34 with Atomic 4

2018-07-14 Thread jay hackney via CnC-List
Hello colleagues
Filled with gas for the Atomic 4 in Port Whitby Canada Day and sailed back to 
Toronto. Wind out of the West and tight timeline meant we had to motor against 
the wind and waves for 2.5 hr. That would be relatively “hard” motoring at 4-5 
knots. Since then I’ve motored about another 3/4hr for a total of 3.25 hours, 
again at about 4.5 knots. Filled with gas again the other day to measure gas 
consumption and got 7.9 litres per hour, or 1.8 gal per hour.
I’ve got a 2-blade folding prop (which, by the way, make reversing difficult - 
in the sense that there is no quick stopping).
Does that seem normal?
Online research seems to go from 0.5 to 2-3 gal per hour.
Anyone with an A4 on a C&C34 with a gas consumption comparison out there?
thanks

I had AT4 in Touche', 35-1, for a few years.  Had Martec folding 14x5P
prop.  Fuel economy was about 1 gph for usual conditions.

If you were motoring into wind and waves, you were more than likely "making
bubbles".  That is, in order for you to get to the full horsepower of the
AT4, you were near max rpm, 2500-2800.  Your AT4 is probably a 1:1
transmission.  Your boat speed was slower therefore your prop was probably
cavitating quite a bit due to the high prop rpm.  The resulting
inefficiency drove your fuel usage up.

Diesels are usually reduction drives, usually about 2:1.  Therefore, a
diesel running 2800 rpm has a prop speed of about 1400 rpm.  Diesel drives
are pitched at 12-16, give or take.  That, and a flatter torque curve, is
why diesels are better for punching into waves.

2018-07-14 Thread Josh Muckley via CnC-List
First, a Google search does not reveal any existence of a 220.

Second, based on what I did find, your pump is most likely one of the many
variants of a triplex, self priming, positive displacement pump, as seen in
the link.
https://www.westmarine.com/buy/shurflo--pump-service-kits-parts--P011_331_003_002

The rubber gets hard or gunk grows on it and then it doesn't seal properly
on the forward or reverse stroke.  Sometimes in the early stages of failure
you may have luck getting it to work as long as it is primed.  Wet rubber
seals better than dry.  If that isn't enough then a disassemble, clean, and
reassemble may be enough to get you going in a pinch but complete failure
is imminent.  The best fix is to determine the correct repair kit and
replace the internals.

Stus-List Yanmar 3HM35F Exhaust riser/goose neck

2018-07-14 Thread Josh Muckley via CnC-List
I found some rust blisters on the riser while poking around in the engine
the other day.  I had a moment yesterday to do the replacement with parts
which I have had for some time.  The rubber exhaust hose was stuck on and a
considerable amount of wrestling was required to separate it from the
riser.  In the effort it went unnoticed that some of the rust blisters had
broken away.  Once I finally got it off and had a chance to inspect I found
that the rust had opened up a dime sized hole.  If this had let go
unexpectedly I would have started blowing exhaust and water into my engine
compartment.  My "what would I have done" thoughts started rolling and I've
decided that a tube of epoxy putty would have been my first effort at an
emergency repair.

I was pleasantly surprised, that after 5 years of use and no service, the

Stus-List Lazy Jacks

Just finished installing a lazy jack system from Port Townsend Rigging 
on Grace, our 1983 C&C 35-3.  These lazy jacks are stowable at the mast 
so that the mainsail cover doesn't need to be modified.  The kit was 
well put together.  Synthetic line for the cradles, nice Selden cheek 
blocks.  An hour up the mast to install the cheek blocks and two flag 
halyards, another half an hour or so to install the boom eye straps, 
cleats and jam cleat and it was done.  The first use was great, dropped 
the main and it all flaked nicely in to the cradle.  I am pleased with 
the cost, quality and ease of installation.

Glad to see the plug for Port Townsend Rigging. They are currently redoing my

halyard that will also work with a trisail. Dan and Lisa along with the rest of 
the staff are very knowledgeable. I am spending a month in Port Townsend

Stus-List Charging issues

2018-07-14 Thread Danny Haughey via CnC-List
So my gauge shows 14amps while motoring but after a long motoring trip my 
starting battery and house batteries are not charging.  The house batteries 
charge under shore power.
I'm taking the starting battery home to throw on a charger to see if it will 
take a charge.  If oin l I'm seeing the 14 amps can I assume the alternator is 
working?

14 amps or 14 volts?

If 14 volts, are you seeing 14 volts across the battery terminals when
motoring?

Re: Stus-List [EXTERNAL] Re: 455 minutes at 25 amps...

2018-07-14 Thread Rick Brass via CnC-List
The reason that the rating is at 25 amps specifically is that 25 amps is the 
typical rate of consumption for a car with a defective alternator or a missing 
fan belt. The 25 amp hour rating is an indication of how long you can drive 
your car before it quits operating altogether if one of the above failures 
occurs. 

 

SAE (society of Automotive Engineers) adopted the 25 amp rate as a standard for 
that reason 4 or 5 decades ago.

 

It’s strange the things you remember after years and years in the automotive 
industry.

Yup – 1 amp for one hour is 1 AH.

There is a reason for the 25 amp rate. A 200 amp hour battery will, in theory, 
provide 200 amps for 1 hour or 1 amp for 200 hours. In real life that does not 
work, at 200 amps you would get less than one hour and at 1 amp you would get 
more than 200 hours. Without the 25 amp rate a creative ad writer might 
advertise a 200 AH battery as a 240 AH battery (at 1 amp LOL )

I'm still stuck in the old school amp hours capacity. And my new batteries are 
telling me 455 minutes at 25 amps. Could someone better at this basic concept 
help me equate this information to amp hour capacity?  Rey to set my amp/volt 
meter.

You can use any boarding ladder you chose to purchase, but longer is better
for getting up out of the water. And the gate in the pushpit is a length of
covered stainless wire with a shackle swaged to one end and a pelican hook
on the other.

I can send you a photo of what is on my 38, if you would like.

Re: Stus-List Charging issues

2018-07-14 Thread Rick Brass via CnC-List
Generally, yes, if you are showing about 14 volts when the engine is running, 
the alternator is probably OK.

 

When you say the start battery is not charging, is it safe to assume that the 
start battery will not start the engine? 

 

Under normal circumstances, and depending on the Amp-Hour capacity of the start 
battery, it will probably never get below 95% to 99% state of charge. (Unless, 
of course, you are using it to also power your house loads.) 

 

For example, the 36 HP Universal in my 38 draws 175 amps for about 30 seconds 
in starting, or about 1.4 AH. That is about 1.3% discharge on the 105AH deep 
cycle battery I use for starting. (And only for starting except in an emergency)

 

So the start battery is capable of reaching full charge in just a few minutes 
of engine run time, and the full output from the alternator then gets directed 
to the house bank if that is at a lower state of charge. If both are fully 
charged, the current flow just creates heat.

 

Check your start battery with a volt meter and both engine and battery switch 
turned off. If you get 12.6 volts or more, everything is probably OK.

 

If the start battery won’t start the motor, you probably need a new battery.

If you wish to jump the start solenoid with a
