Re: Stus-List West Marine Black Friday

2018-11-10 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
I'm going to get the Siren Marine boat monitoring system. It's a really good 
deal for a terrific product. I was just up at their head office for a chat 
yesterday and came away very impressed. The device uses a cell signal to 
monitor your boat. The service on Black Friday is free for two years, I think, 
and it's normally $200/year, which still isn't bad. And the cell service is 
good anywhere in the world for that price. So if your boat is in the Caribbean 
or Mexico or Europe you can still monitor water level, battery status, 
position, etc.

Re: Stus-List Shackle for Genoa Sheets?

2018-11-10 Thread Michael Brown via CnC-List

That was a poor wording on my part. We have released under
load a few times due to overrides or whatever else happens on
long races when we get tired. Once in the dark I managed to
pull the jib sheet and spin sheet through the turning block.


For headsail changes we put a temporary line on a sail, hoist the
new sail and move the sheet to it then trim in. The old sail may
get released under load.

Re: Stus-List Shackle for Genoa Sheets?

2018-11-10 Thread Michael Brown via CnC-List

I was surprised at the loads, and have no idea why there is a difference
to the various load calculators and postings.


Windburn has ARCO 40s as the primary winches. They are similar to the new
offerings with a 6.3:1 second gear ratio and a 3.25" drum diameter.



http://www.arco-winches.com/products/winch/stdi


With a 10" winch handle the power ratio would be


10 x 6.3 / 1.625 = 38.8


Am I correct in extrapolating that with 50 lbs force on the handle 

there would be about 2000 lbs force on the line?


At high winds and full load my best guess is I am developing over
100 lbs of force on the winch handle, hence my guess at 4000 lbs.




My headsail is in the 300 sq ft range and even at 15 knots the load
on the winch handle is well over 20 lbs.


I don't know what the discrepancies are. I originally used calculators
to come up with a load rating and spec'd the rigging to match.
We wore out the turning block in the first year. The 3/8" standard
doublebraid sheet failed at the clew, though we were pounding into
high wind and waves for hours. I upgraded to New England VPC
3/8, good for 6000 lbs, and broke the core where it turns on the
genoa lead car.


>From the Harken site a 300 sq ft sail at 8 knots would have a 83 pound load.
I have no problem pulling 83 pounds and there is no way I can fully pull
in my #1 by hand at 8 knots. If I really got my back into it and pulled as hard
as I could I might get well over 200 pounds, good for 13 knots on the Harken
site. There is no possibility of me trimming the jib by hand at 13 knots.


Am I getting something wrong?

From: "Dennis C."   
 
300 sq. ft of headsail at 20 knots true is about 520 pounds load.
