My 1973 cc30 mk1 has a 7/8" shaft. My engine is a gas atomic 4 . prop is r/h 
rotation 11.5 x 8 x 7/8" 2 blade folding prop. Gori props can size you up 
pretty quick. Good luck

Hi, I have a 2QM15 Yanmar and the prop came off when I hit a log yesterday.



Can anyone tell me what prop diameter I should be looking for as well as the 
pitch and shaft size?



or where I could find that info?

Re: Stus-List Marinco shore power inlet

I also installed a smartplug on my 37/40+. The screws matched, but I had to use 
my dremel to grind out some extra space where it passed through the fiberglass.
Absolutely well worth it.   A much better connection at the boat.

All,
I also converted to the SmartPlug and kicking myself for not doing it sooner. 
Easy, solid connection. 
Warning: if you have a 37+ or XL (probably 34+ or XL as well), the SmartPlug 
will not mount in the same location as your existing shore power inlet. You’ll 
have to drill new holes. Still totally worth it.

A better arrangement is a Smart Plug and inlet.  The cable snaps in without any 
threads.  The contacts are larger, and when it's not plugged in, the cover 
snaps down into place.  You can buy the \whole assembly complete with cord, or 
you can use your Marinco cord and add the fittings yourself.  That's what I did 
when I found charred contacts on the Marinco inlet.
I also made adapters to cover all possible arrangements - 15, 20, and 30 amps.  
I haven't made a 50 amp adapter, but that comes next.

I just bought one last month for a boat I was delivering, at West Marine.

The complete assembly is about $55. Or you can buy just the stainless

as separate items. On the new stainless assembly, I liked the new attachment

for the cover a lot - you put the cover in place and turn it about 60

degrees to engage two bosses into the threaded parts, rather than having to

thread the cover on as you do with the old style inlet on my boat.



I'm sure you can find the item less expensively on Amazon or EBay.



I have been in 3 marinas in the last month that had only 50 amp power on the

docks, and had tto borrow or rent a 50 amp male to 30 amp female pigtail to

plug in my boat. I decided to buy one and found Marinco is right proud of

them - pushing $150. I found a new one on line for $79.

I broke the threaded boss in the shore power inlet the other day on Pulse,

ordered a new one from amazon, and an ez lock collar for the cord. Looks

like it's all going to fit, more or less, however when I took the inlet

apart, 2 of the rear enclosure mounting corners are broken off (plastic) and

the gaskets are done. Does anyone know of a source for parts for Marinco

fittings? 30a 110v stainless. Don't really want to buy a new one this year.

Re: Stus-List fall rendezvous Annapolis

Thanks to Dennis for stepping up to suggest an itinerary.

The results of my early surveys was that many people wanted to meet with
other owners and see their boats.  My experience at the 2017 NE Rendezvous
was similar.  People really enjoyed just being in the company of other
ownersand drinking.

My wife, Carmeletta, has suggested a ladies shopping trip and has also
investigated a tour of the Naval Academy.  If there are at least 20 people
interested, the academy has private tours.  Less than 20 they still offer
tours just not private.

I considered an on board meal prep demo from various owners.  Brian Fry and
I both have Pro Select Pressure cookers which can be used for a multitude
of different cooking techniques.  I'm happy to demo or allow others to demo
on board my boat.  It might be cool to have a spread of food available on
Friday night.

For a price we could arrange catering, or make reservations at any of the
local eateries.

There is a cool music venue and bar and restaurant called The Rams Head
which may have a show if anybody is interested.

Dennis, if you have a line on a splicing demo from APS I would enjoy that.

Rick Brass had suggested a fun run sail race and had even had a prize in
mind for the winner.

There are a multitude of modifications on board my boat that I have shared
with the list throughout the years.  I'm happy to demonstrate any of them
in person.

Carm and I will have a car available and Uber and Lift are available too.
A trip to Faucets and APS are fun stops.

I don't know Annapolis too well so if there is a museum or other "thing to
see" then anybody is welcome to please chime in.

Long story short, if nobody tells us what you want to do we will all just
sit around and talk... And drink... Which is perfectly fine... I like
drinking.

Hi Nathan

 

On our 34, there is a reason why the head is a foot or so below the top; of the 
mast.  It is to provide room for the sail headboard to fit between the aft edge 
of the mast and the backstay.  Keep that in mind as you are thinking of

Re: Stus-List Lost my prop on 1978 C&C 30 mark 1, need some help replacing it.

2018-08-07 Thread Randy Stafford via CnC-List
+1.

Replaced a two-blade fixed on my 30-1, A4, 7/8” shaft, with a two-blade Gori 
folding prop, before the 2017 season.  I’ve been running the Gori for two 
seasons now with absolutely no problems.  I think it gained me a half-knot easy.

Here are the specs on my shaft and prop from Geoff Prior of AB Marine (US 
distributor for Gori):
* RH rotation, 7/8” dia SAE shaft taper which has a ¼” nominal key & a 5/8” x 
11 UNC thread.
* So for your C&C 30 with the Atomic 4, rated at 30hp, 3000rpm,  (20hp @ 
2000rpm) with the 1:1 gear ratio, RH rotation, 7/8” dia. shaft it’s the 11.5" x 
8 x 2-blade RH.

I bought the Gori on sale for $845, which was $50 more than a Martec and $185 
less than a Flex-o-Fold.

rotation 11.5 x 8 x 7/8" 2 blade folding prop. Gori props can size you up 
pretty quick. Good luck

Actually given all this discussion about tough docking.  Makes it easier...just 
put your fenders out and push in.


Kind of like we do with inflatables at a dinghy dock.

Re: Stus-List How narrow a berth is too narrow

2018-08-07 Thread Randy Stafford via CnC-List
Sounds tight.  My 30-1 (10’ beam) shares a 20’-wide double slip with a Merit 25 
(8’ beam).  That two feet to spare is mostly consumed by three widths of 
fenders etc., leaving only 6” between our boats.  We’ve made it work without 
incident, but we don’t have any tide or current to deal with on our lake.

Cheers,
Randy

All,

I also converted to the SmartPlug and kicking myself for not doing it sooner. 
Easy, solid connection. 

Warning: if you have a 37+ or XL (probably 34+ or XL as well), the SmartPlug 
will not mount in the same location as your existing shore power inlet. You’ll 
have to drill new holes. Still totally worth it. 

All the best,

Dang.
We have had several good meals at Federal House lately, but I haven’t been to 
McGarvey’s in some time. The Dock Street Café has superb crab cakes and 
burgers, but space inside is limited.
The Boatyard definitely has the sailing atmosphere nailed. Water taxi will take 
you there if you are averse to walking.

First, thanks to Josh for moving this rendezvous forward and to Ken for the 
webpage.

The event is scheduled for Fri-Sun, October 26-28. Currently, we, the 
attendees, have no activities planned.  What do we want to do?

In the past, our gatherings have had informal social events on Friday with more 
structured activities on Saturday.

As a start, I propose the following:

Friday 10/26 - 5-6:30 Cocktails on the pier.  Mingle
Saturday 10/27  1-5 pm Tour attending boats.  5:30-7ish?  Group dinner?  Where? 
 Suggestions?
Sunday 10/28  Ad lib.

Totally amenable to any revisions to the above.  Just trying to start putting 
some structure to the event.

Maybe have Annapolis Performance Sailing do a lecture?  What does the group 
want?

I know nothing about Annapolis.  Suggestions from locals on a venue for a group 
dinner?

Stus-List How narrow a berth is too narrow

2018-08-07 Thread Jeremy Ralph via CnC-List
I have an opportunity for a new slip an a highly desirable location.  From
the edge of the finger to the neighboring boat is 12' and my beam is 11'
not counting fender width.  Is less than 1' between too narrow or do you
think I can make it work?

Doing a bit of research on plastic zipper lubes for canvas I found several 
opinions.  Products mentioned positively were:

 

petroleum jelly

Sailkote McLube

McNett Zip-Tech

GairAid Zipper Lube (formerly McNett Zip-Tech)

Star Brite Zipper Lube

Several others.

 

Most seemed to work OK.  One criticism of zipper lubes was residue that would 
collect dirt and grime.  

 

The one that seemed to have the best reviews from sailors and canvas makers was 
the McNett/GearAid.  I ordered some.  I can also use it on the rubberized 
zippers of my snow ski jacket.  :)

 

Any comments on zipper lubes from the listers?

Re: Stus-List Refrigeration March pump

2018-08-07 Thread Bill Coleman via CnC-List
I think my AC Dometic might be considered submersible as well, altho it doesn’t 
look like what I consider a submersible pump, like a little giant.

They say they can be run either way., probably yours as well.

Most important, these are not self-priming, so they have to be installed below 
the waterline, and preferably have a downhill run to them.  One way to prime is 
to pull off the outlet – you will get water in a hurry!  Pop it right back on, 
and if the pump is good, it will be running fine. But Better to just have the 
outlet going up, like I said.

I just replaced a refrigeration pump that looked just like that Lc-3CP, but it 
was a Dometic. I think they are all the same.

I think I replaced it needlessly, as a couple days after I did, the new one was 
screaming and shutting the compressor down. Again. Then, I remembered that I 
had to bleed the damn thing before, but I forgot.

I plan on fixing that bleeder problem by having the pump output go straight up 
for a bit, to let air out. Now the hose goes down, which traps air in the pump.

John, 

 

Flagship Marine is a reasonable source for March Pumps.   I did not see a 
direct replacement for model 893-001-04, but a quick google search suggest that 
the replacement model is 893-04.   See the link below.

All.

I installed a smart plug on Honey and adapted all of my spare power cords
and adapters to the smart plug configuration. This was money well spent, no
more burnt shore plugs. I only wish that I had made this conversion a
couple of years ago.

I purchased mine from Defender since they had the best price at the time.

I just replaced a refrigeration pump that looked just like that Lc-3CP, but it 
was a Dometic. I think they are all the same.
I think I replaced it needlessly, as a couple days after I did, the new one was 
screaming and shutting the compressor down. Again. Then, I remembered that I 
had to bleed the damn thing before, but I forgot.
I plan on fixing that bleeder problem by having the pump output go straight up 
for a bit, to let air out. Now the hose goes down, which traps air in the pump.

John,

Flagship Marine is a reasonable source for March Pumps.   I did not see a 
direct replacement for model 893-001-04, but a quick google search suggest that 
the replacement model is 893-04.   See the link below.

Re: Stus-List Raising the boom?

2018-08-07 Thread Nathan Post via CnC-List
 Thanks for all the great feedback on this.  On my boat as with some of the
others the goose neck is attached with a bunch of machine screws - not
welded so I expect it should be straight forward to move it up - simply
drill and tap new holes in the mast.  I could put some screws in the old
holes to "fill" them.   Thinking about height of the boom for
flaking/covering the sail and attaching the halyard to the head are
important considerations - I'll make a few measurements/trials and see how
much higher makes sense to go based on that.  Other boats I have sailed on
have had the top batten catch on the back stay and while annoying there are
ways to shake it loose as suggested so not that big a deal to me (not
planning on any short course racing with lots of tacks).  Raising the clew
helps with cockpit clearance, but not with vang angle so that is a
consideration and if just raising the clue that would also mean installing
new reef points in the sail if we wanted to keep the same angle when reefed
so raising the gooseneck seems to be the way to go in my case.

Thanks!

Re: Stus-List Raising the boom?

2018-08-07 Thread Chuck S via CnC-List
I'm adding a vote for raising the boom end by altering the mainsail.

My gooseneck is welded. I expect I could find a new mast fitting that fit and 
screw it onto the mast above the OEM product. I'd leave the old fitting as it 
adds strength and wouldn't be in the way of anything.

In 2012, I had a sailmaker simply add a flattening reef cringle in the leech 
($75) on a racing sail. Last year I had a sailmaker raise the clew on J-109 
mainsail 18" because it was originally made for a tiller steered boat and 
allowed the boom to droop below 90 degrees. It actually touched the wheel and 
could jam it. He kept the tack and reshaped the foot of the sail, new foot line 
etc ($300 for a loose footed main). You may find a better deal.

Re: Stus-List Raising the boom?

2018-08-07 Thread Randy Stafford via CnC-List
Hi Nathan,

A previous owner raised the boom on my 30-1 by exactly one foot, comparing 
former and current gooseneck bracket hole patterns on the mast, probably as a 
safety and comfort choice.  Later HINs than mine (I have hull #7) came from the 
factory with that modification - the boom a foot higher than on the early HINs.

Like Dennis, I have no way of comparing boat feel before and after.  But I have 
no complaints about the way my boat sails.  I’m 6’2” and the boom just clears 
my head on tacks and gybes, with the vang set for a level boom.  I added a vang 
and it forms a 30-60-90 triangle or better (wouldn’t have been possible with a 
lower boom).  Standing on the cabintop I have no problem reaching the headboard 
to shackle the halyard or put on / take off the sail cover.

My previous mainsail always looked short in the foot to me.  I wondered if the 
previous owner who raised the boom cut off the bottom 12” of the sail resulting 
in a shorter foot.  This year I got a new mainsail and made the foot as long as 
possible given the boom-end, screw-drive outhaul system on the original 30-1 
roller-reefing boom.  I have the occasional problem with the top batten 
catching the backstay in light wind, but in those conditions I have the 
backstay adjusted loose and can just jiggle the backstay to let the batten pass.

Re: Stus-List Raising the boom?

2018-08-07 Thread Rick Brass via CnC-List
Nathan;

When I rerigged Imzadi back in 2011 or 2012, I talked to my sailmaker and the 
rigger about doing what you are considering. Imzadi's boom was about 30" off 
the deck, which put the vang at a marginally flat angle and limited the access 
to the companionway. I, too, wanted to put on a taller dodger to aid access 
below.

They pointed out that the black stripe at the top of the mast (an indicator of 
the max luff length for racing purposes) was a foot below the top of the mast, 
so the gooseneck and black stripe could both be moved up and still be legal. My 
gooseneck was installed on the mast with 8 or 10 machine screws, so it was an 
easy task to move the gooseneck up about 8" and repaint the black stripe.

I find no difference in the sailing qualities of my boat. The rigid vang is 
much closer to the optimum 45 degree angle. Clearance in the cockpit is better. 
And there is enough room over the companionway that a hard dodger with solar 
panels mounted on it has been added to the project list.

The first downside is that the top batten in the main (a five batten main with 
maximum roach) tends to get caught by the backstay when tacking in light winds. 
But I have the same problem with my 25, and the gooseneck is in the original 
location. A timely tug down on the boom is sometimes needed to clear the 
batten. Since you indicate you have a second hand main that is 1 1/2 feet 
shorter than the proper main for your boat, I don't imagine you have this 
problem. It might become an issue when you get a new sail that is the proper 
length.

The second downside is the result of the Tides Strong Track on the mast and the 
new main I bought last year. The new main has more "slugs" in the track than 
the old one (though it is the number recommended by Tides for the luff length 
of a main for a 38) and the stack height puts the top of the headboard just 
about as high as I can reach when connecting the halyard or putting on the 
mainsail cover. I sometimes wish I was a couple of inches taller.

All in all, I'm pleased with the consequences of moving my gooseneck up.

Subject: Stus-List Raising the boom?

All,

Having sailed our 1981 C&C 34 a few times and while looking into having a 
dodger and bimini made for her I am considering  raising the boom about 8 to 10 
inches. Good idea or bad idea?  Has anyone done this on their boat?

We are only planning on cruising, not racing. The current full batten mainsail 
(which is probably a used replacement as the sail number on it doesn’t 
correspond to the boat) falls well short of the masthead when fully raised and 
the head is about 18 inches below of the top of the track so there is plenty of 
room up there without recutting it.  At its current height the boom is about 
eye level for me when standing and my wife bumps her head if she is not careful 
- getting it above head height would be nice for comfort and would also allow 
the dodger to be a bit higher.

I know raising the main higher will hurt performance a bit in windy conditions, 
but I am not sure how much it will degrade the handling or balance.  It will 
also change the main sheet angle a bit and reduce the effectiveness of the 
cabin top traveler but with installing a new vang I don’t think that will be so 
important.  However, I love how well balanced the boat is - she sails 
beautifully - so I don’t want to mess that up.

Thoughts?
Thanks,
Nathan

Brad,

I recently purchased a replacement Marinco 100R Threaded Ring for 20 and 30 Amp 
Systems at Amazon and it works perfectly.
I noticed that Amazon has ample Marinco parts, so perhaps you could find your 
items there.

Just search Amazon for “Marinco.”

Re: Stus-List Marinco shore power inlet

A better arrangement is a Smart Plug and inlet.  The cable snaps in without
any threads.  The contacts are larger, and when it's not plugged in, the
cover snaps down into place.  You can buy the \whole assembly complete with
cord, or you can use your Marinco cord and add the fittings yourself.
That's what I did when I found charred contacts on the Marinco inlet.

I also made adapters to cover all possible arrangements - 15, 20, and 30
amps.  I haven't made a 50 amp adapter, but that comes next.

I just bought one last month for a boat I was delivering, at West Marine.
The complete assembly is about $55. Or you can buy just the stainless
mounting parts and cover for about $45, and the electrical part at about $40
as separate items. On the new stainless assembly, I liked the new attachment
for the cover a lot - you put the cover in place and turn it about 60
degrees to engage two bosses into the threaded parts, rather than having to
thread the cover on as you do with the old style inlet on my boat.

I'm sure you can find the item less expensively on Amazon or EBay.

I have been in 3 marinas in the last month that had only 50 amp power on the
docks, and had tto borrow or rent a 50 amp male to 30 amp female pigtail to
plug in my boat. I decided to buy one and found Marinco is right proud of
them - pushing $150. I found a new one on line for $79.

Re: Stus-List Raising the boom?

2018-08-07 Thread David Knecht via CnC-List
I considered doing this because I am 6’ 3” and did not want to get hit in the 
head with the boom.  My sailmaker convinced me to raise the clew on the sail so 
the boom now has a slight angle but clears my head in the rear near the wheel.  
You might be able to get away with this option depending on where you want it 
higher.  It is certainly cheaper and easier than raising the gooseneck.  I did 
this when my new main was built, but it is easy to add a new cringle to the 
existing sail and try it out.   Dave

Re: Stus-List Raising the boom?

2018-08-07 Thread Dennis C. via CnC-List
I think Touche's boom has been raised.  The bracket is attached with
machine screws.  There is a separate pattern of fastener holes below the
bracket which may be the original location.  It appears to have been raised
4-5 inches.

Although I have no way to compare before and after, the boat sails well.

You might consider modifying your mainsail instead.  The leech of Touche's
racing main is too long for us to sail it with the bimini up.  As this sail
ages, I have considered retiring it to cruising service.  I would have my
sail maker shorten the leech to have it clear the bimini.

Also consider the added difficulty handling the mainsail - Flaking on the
boom, removing or installing on the boom, operations if you have a sail
cover or stack pack.

How would you move the mast to boom fixture, the "goose neck"?  What scar
would remain?  Mine is welded.

Stus-List Raising the boom?

2018-08-07 Thread Nathan Post via CnC-List
All,

Having sailed our 1981 C&C 34 a few times and while looking into having a 
dodger and bimini made for her I am considering  raising the boom about 8 to 10 
inches. Good idea or bad idea?  Has anyone done this on their boat?

We are only planning on cruising, not racing. The current full batten mainsail 
(which is probably a used replacement as the sail number on it doesn’t 
correspond to the boat) falls well short of the masthead when fully raised and 
the head is about 18 inches below of the top of the track so there is plenty of 
room up there without recutting it.  At its current height the boom is about 
eye level for me when standing and my wife bumps her head if she is not careful 
- getting it above head height would be nice for comfort and would also allow 
the dodger to be a bit higher.

I know raising the main higher will hurt performance a bit in windy conditions, 
but I am not sure how much it will degrade the handling or balance.  It will 
also change the main sheet angle a bit and reduce the effectiveness of the 
cabin top traveler but with installing a new vang I don’t think that will be so 
important.  However, I love how well balanced the boat is - she sails 
beautifully - so I don’t want to mess that up.
