So I will be using an Apple IPad for chartplotter use.  Anyone have 
recommendations for a water proof case, temporary pedestal mount setup?  Thanks 
in advance.

I can vouch  for a Lifeproof case I've had for 3-4 years. Haven't 
mounted it though.

Stus-List Spring Fever

2020-05-03 Thread schiller via CnC-List
Well, we've broken containment and evaded house arrest up here in the 
great midwest.  washed and polished the topsides today, VC-17 Thursday 
and we will have all the exterior work ready for launch.  Still need to 
do some minor electrical upgrades to get things to my satisfaction, but 
I can do those on rainy days.  Our marina is working to catch up on 
launching boats.  His crew will work 7 days a week once boats are ready 
for launch.  We haven't completely lifted the house arrests but once 
Queen Gretch allowed powerboat use the marinas decided that meant that 
they could launch boats.


Both Friday and today while we were up there everybody seemed to be 
acting responsibly and giving space to others.


The other good news we got last week was that UK Sails was able to 
finish our new Main and Jib while on lock down.  They stayed open sewing 
masks and that alloweed them to complete some of the logged orders.  Now 
all we have to do is arrange a clandestine meeting to take possession.


We may be able to get in the water yet.  Although high Great Lakes water 
levels may keep us from going anywhere except around our area.

Rod,

We don't race Grace.  It is just the wife and I, right now.  As I 
understand it, Michigan only limits congregations of 10 or less so 
technically you would be able to race with a crew.


It is just nice to have the normal spring routine to get the boat ready 
for launch.


I have been monitoring whether the Queen's Cup or the Clipper Cup across 
the lake races are cancelled.  So far they have not been. The Queen's 
Cup is late June and they will need to make a decision soon.  
Complicating things is that the high lake levels have created a lot of 
marina problems for fixed docks.  Luckily we are in a marina with 
floating docks.

Thanks Neil hopefully they will allow groups of 5 or less but they couple that 
with social distancing.  Additionally Transport Canada currently says you can 
only have family you live with on the boat, regardless of the size of the boat. 
 Hopefully that will change, last Friday you weren’t allowed to work on your 
boat so that has changed.

Re: Stus-List Apple Tablet

2020-05-03 Thread Matt Wolford via CnC-List
As a follow-up, I also like the RAM unit because: 1) I can use different
size iPads with the same holder (a newer one and a relatively old one as a
back-up); and 2) I can also go to entirely different set-up to hold a Garmin
unit by switching out the mount being held in place.  It's very versatile,
and not too expensive.

 

Also, a caution about Lifeproof iPad cases.  Although they are great at
keeping water out (I've used them during downpours), a downside is the
opening that provides access to the charging port.  The case works fine with
original Apple charging cords.  However, many aftermarket charging cords
have larger plugs (the housing around the plug, not the plug itself) that
won't fit through the Lifeproof charge port opening.

Neil,

According to the South Shore Yacht Club newsletter that came out this weekend, 
the Queen’s Cup is officially delayed to an undetermined date.  South Shore has 
lots of issues this year, their break wall is all but ineffective due to the 
high water levels and they had extensive dock damage in a storm this winter.  I 
know the Commodore is trying extremely hard to make the race happen, but there 
are a lot of hurdles to overcome.

Hi Rod,

Do you have a link for that Transport Canada notice?

 I can't find anything about it... seems kinda 
odd though, being as small boats are typically a 
provincial jurisdiction. Although there are a ton 
of tiny bureaucrats jumping on this covid flu 
thing to enhance their own importance.


We had the RCMP at some boat ramps discouraging 
people from going out to fish at the same time 
the Chief Public Health officer, Dr. Bonnie 
Henry, was telling people to get outside.


Weird times indeed. It might be time to regain 
some of our rights since the hospitals are empty 
and not overwhelming them was the whole purpose of lockdown.


Cheers, Russ
