I also prefer a teflon or silicone based grease. I avoid lithium based grease 
since they seem to dry out and get hard after a while.

Oh... that sounds good. The Pawlls are rusted so I need to replace all 8

Re: Stus-List C&C ownership

2018-09-28 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List

I’ve been a proud C&C owner for 45 yrs. I bought my 1st C&C, a 30 Mk 1, hull # 
100  at the 1973 Annapolis Boat show.We named her Red Baron and raced/cruised 
her for 13 years with my family. She was a terrific racer/cruiser!!
As the family grew up and kids wanted to bring friends, we decided to step up 
and purchased a 1986 C&C 41 CB, naming her Der Baron. We have now raced/cruised 
her for 32 years on the Chesapeake Bay.

I have a room full of trophies and photos, a garage full of old sails, and many 
fond memories and tales to share with family and crew. 
They both have been wonderful family boats and I’ve never regretted our choice.

On my C&C 41, it was not necessary to drop the rudder.
The yard removed the cutless bearing 1st with their special bearing press tool.
Once the bearing was removed, there was enough slop to slide the 1 1/8 inch 
shaft past the rudder for easy removal.
I replaced both the shaft and the bearing.

Re: Stus-List Mast Rake for C&C 41

2018-08-04 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
On our C&C 41, Der Baron we set it up with about 1 degree of rake. The major 
problem was dealing with the keel bolt at the mast step. We had to cut back 
a small amount of the mast at the base to allow for the base to move 
forward. We also adjusted the shims at the deck to put some slight pre-bend.


We did it in 1986,some I'm not sure what else we may have done. Since then, 
we mostly use the hydraulic backstay , the baby stay, or the runners to 
adjust the mast bend and the sail shape.

For my 42 (obviously a different boat), we looked at the original C&C design
drawing and assumed that the boat was drawn with the rake the designers
intended.  I forget what the degree of rake came out to be, but it wasn't
much.  To implement it in the field, I hung a bucket of water from the main
halyard and raked the mast back until the halyard near deck level was the
calculated distance from the mast.  Once the mast was positioned where I
wanted it, I installed a Spartite plug.  I used leftover Spartite to make
chocks for the mast step base.  Not high-tech, but seems to have worked out
okay.

Re: Stus-List mystery item

2018-08-01 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
It’s for the boom vang, or preventer with a roller furler boom. You are holding 
it upside down. You slide it on to the boom, and attach a block and tackle to 
the shackle. The other end of the block and tackle is fastened to the toe rail 
or the mast base, as needed. 

I had one for my C&C 30 in the 70’s. My 30 had a roller furler main, and this 
gadget worked very well whenever you need to roll in a furl. Of course, the C&C 
30 Mk 1 was a super stiff boat, so we rarely used itin the furling 
configuration. II t did get a lot of use as a preventer however.
I owned a !973 C&C Mk1 hull # 100 “Red Baron” from 1973 through 1985 and raced 
and cruised her a lot on the Chesapeake Bay.
In 1986 I replaced her with a C&C 41 CB hull #93, “Der Baron”, and raced and 
cruised her a lot on the Bay too.
By 2016 following some serious surgery. I gave up racing and but still do some 
cruising.

Re: Stus-List Stern Ladder Hull Guard-Feet

I use the rubber cane (or chair) tips as well, but before installing them, I 
insert a fender washer of the same size.
The fender washer protects the rudder from the sharp edges on the feet of

Re: Stus-List How many shaft zincs?

2018-04-27 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
The acceleration of the zinc corrosion can be due to a number of things. The 
galvanic isolator can help if the marina has a grounding issue, and will fix 
that. Your problem is more likely due to dissimilar metals on your boat 
immersed in salt water.
Many years ago I had a C&C 30 Mk I, and after 4-5 years of use, it started 
consuming several zincs in a season. I purchased a corrosion meter, made dozens 
of measurements, and realized it was due to the existence of the lead keel in 
combination with the lightning ground.
At the end of the season, I had her hauled, stripped the keel paint, and 
barrier coat, replaced the barrier coat, the anti-fouling paint and never had 
another problem. If you think about it, a battery often is made of lead in 
combination with an electrolyte (eg, salt water) and other metals. By 
electrically connecting the lead keel and mast to the engine, shaft, zincs, 
thru hulls, etc,  you have created a short-circuited battery, and accelerating 
the corrosion or the least noble of the metals—in this case the zinc. I was 
able to isolate the connections, and measure the open circuit voltage and the 
currents when shorted. Sure enough, the voltage was ~ 0. 5, and the current was 
~ 100 ma. Not very much, but enough to eat away a zinc on 27/7 basis. My 
conclusion was that the barrier coat had isolated the keel for the early years, 
but after a while, it broke down, and exposed more lead to the sea thereby 
increasing the zinc cunsumption.
It worked for me, and you might want to investigate.

was built by Cinkel Spars in NOL. I met with Jim? Cinkel at a boat show or two, 
and did get some parts and drawings from him a long time ago. They also made 
some the steering systems. They were out of the business at the time, but Jim? 
still had parts in a garage

Re: Stus-List Mooring Rights -- Any "Sea Lawyers" on the List?

2017-11-10 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
We had an abandoned derelict boat in our area for a long time. Neighbors, 
Community Associations, DNR police, etc were unable or unwilling to get rid of 
it. No one could decide on whose responsibility it was, or what laws applied. 
There was quite a bit of discontent. Eventually some one decided that they 
would cut it loose, and tie it to an official navigational buoy. I suspect that 
it was done in the middle of a moonless night It was reported to the USCG, and 
within a day or two they removed it and it was never seen again!

Something about it being illegal to tie up to a navigational buoy, I suppose.

Sounds like an abandoned vessel to me. It is common in Florida for people with 
decrepit boats in the water to simply anchor them and row away to avoid paying 
salvage costs. Of course, they scrape off all identifying numbers.

Is there an anchorage nearby? Any tackle onboard? I’ve heard of people moving 
abandoned boats after being frustrated by the unwillingness of the authorities 
to deal with the problem. Maybe you use an old Danforth from your garage with 
some rusty chain and 100 feet of scrap rode.

Edd, I hate to say it but you’re involved in a bucket of s … well, let’s say a 
can of worms.

 

Some states have abandoned and derelict boat laws, most don’t seem to. And 
local laws are sometimes conflicting and hard to find. (For example, the local 
regulations in New Bern, NC are part of the local zoning code and Oriental, NC 
– where there are more sailboats than people – has no regulation at all.) I 
wouldn’t expect too much from the USCG because they seem to be pretty 
disinterested unless the offending boat is a hazard to navigation. I’m rapidly 
gaining expertise on this because of growing problems we’re having in the 
harbor an Washington, NC, where I manage the municipal marina.

 

In North Carolina you can send a registered letter to the last owner of record 
for the offending boat. If he doesn’t claim the letter in 30 days, or if he 
gets the letter but does nothing, you can go to the State and apply for title 
to the vessel, which takes another couple of weeks. Then you can move, sell, 
dispose of, or scrap the boat because it is yours.

 

I’d start by contacting the state agency that handles registration of boats in 
the state where the boat is currently. They can tell you what your options are.

Re: Stus-List Keel bolt weeping

2016-09-19 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
I have experienced keel bolt weeping on my C&C 41 early on. After some detailed 
efforts, I determined that is was the result of improperly drilled bolt holes 
in the hull/keel stub. When I removed the nut, and the washer from the leaking 
bolt, It was obvious. C&C had drilled a bolt hole in the hull/stub, but it 
wasn’t lined up with the keel bolt, so they drilled a 2nd hole to accommodate 
the keel bolt. This left a gap with only about 1/2 of the hole filled by the 
keel bolt.  They tried to fill the gap with butyl. It worked for a while, but 
eventually weeped.

My fix was simple. After removing the nut, and the washer, I carefully cleaned 
out the partial hole, filled it with West Epoxy with filler, then re-bedded it 
with butyl, replaced the washer, replaced the nut, re-torqued it and never had 
it leak or weep again. That was about 20 years ago.

Essentially my problem was a manufacturing problem with C&C.

Maybe yours is a simple thing like that

Re: Stus-List Singing Rigging

2016-07-25 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
This is technically known as "vortex shedding". It's a natural phenomena 
caused by the air flow around a round cylinder ( the rod or the wire) and 
occurs at certain wind speeds. At normal speeds, normal flow occurs, and 
there's no vibration. At certain higher speeds, vortexes develop, and induce 
vibrations in the rigging. Tightening or loosing the rigging will usually 
reduce the effect. You can find a more complete description on the internet.


Note: Commercial airliners have observed the problem at their wing tips, and 
many recently added small winglets at the ends of their wings.  I believe 
this reduces energy loss, reduces the vibration, and improves their fuel 
mileage.

You cinch in down with large hose clamps and complete the seal with regular

I’ve had 2 older C&Cs, a 30-1, and a 41. I was told by Southshore and others

My personal observations seem to indicate that is correct. It is very hard, 
tough, durable, and chemically resistant. 
I would doubt that C&C would have used  lead based paint. If not gel coat, 
maybe it could be epoxy. I do know that it sure doesn’t seem to be a latex, or

Intellux sells a gray or white Bilge coat that is epoxy or polyester based I

their respective cringles.  I have simply used a stop knot in the cringle, 
as there is no place to attach the bitter end on the boom after being rove 
through the cringle.
Due to the geometry involved, the sail sets poorly and the boom sags, as the 
line does not pull the cringle down tight to the boom, only out toward the 
end of the boom.  I'm sure I'm missing something simple 


Any suggestions?   Many thanks!

Re: Stus-List Galvanic isolator - Good idea?

2015-10-28 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List

Josh

To answer your question about “What are the shaft zincs protecting?” Assuming 
you are in saltwater such as the Chesapeake,
Just a few things, including: the prop, the shaft, the rudder post, the keel 
bolts (especially if you have the C&C Smile), as well as any other of the usual 
underwater metals.
You should protect these items as the can’t be easily inspected, but failure 
can be a real disaster.

If you have a shaft isolator, you should install one or  more copper jumpers 
between the engine coupling and the prop shaft coupling.

Also Galvanic isolators are suggested for situations where you suspect the AC 
system at the marina or nearby boats may be compromised.

Note: Galvanic isolators are a simple circuit made up 2 big diodes wired in 
parallel but pointed in opposite directions. Since the diodes are not perfect 
they create about .6 volt DC barriers to prevent the corrosion currents  needed 
for electrolysis.

A  big capacitor is also connected in parallel with the diodes to allow AC 
current at low levels and in case of diode failure. All three components are 
mounted on a large heat sink to keep the parts cool and insure a longer life.
Don’t try building this yourself, unless you can design the proper size diodes 
and capacitors and heat sink the box

Since we're on topic.  It seems that there is a bit of differing opinions on 
bonding the under water metals.

What are the shaft and prop zincs protecting?  If a shaft coupling isolator 
were installed and no bonding wire attached then the chance of stray galvanic 
currents is eliminated.   Right?  What is the risk of this situation?  I don't 
have bonding plates, bronze through hulls, keel coolers or anything else except 
the keel that is metal and in contact with the water.

I've considered possible corrosion effects on internal engine components and 
A/C components.  Seems plausible but no one ever talks about it.  Thoughts? 

I've also considered the anode in the water heater.  Seems like the most likely 
to experience stray galvanic currents and the least likely to be replaced or 
checked on any regular periodicity despite its ease of access within the boat.

I have 2 30 amp connections but use a y-adapter so only 1 shore power cord is 
required.  I also built my own galvanic isolator for ~$30 with parts from 
mouser.com, I've just never had the urgent need to install it.

  Ed, 
 What you say is true from the perspective of having effective 
galvanic isolation, but there are a couple of design issues that come to mind. 
In order for galvanic isolation to work, all wiring grounds to the boat must be 
interrupted by a galvanic isolator. This means that if there are two shore 
power receptacles then both of them would have to have their wiring grounds 
taken to the isolator and then out again to the distribution panel(s). From an 
engineering perspective, a wiring ground only needs to have enough capacity to 
reliably trip a circuit breaker without catching on fire, but most electrical 
codes require that they have the same capacity as the main conductors. In other 
words, if you care about regulations and some people on this list have 
indicated that they do, then the galvanic isolator would most likely have to 
have at least the current capacity of the sum of both shore power receptacles. 
  According to the instructions that came with a galvanic isolator that 
a friend of mine bought last year, a galvanic isolator requires an (optional 
and at an additional cost for that particular product) indicator light to be 
ABYC compliant

I found that the Harken Catalog contains lots of suggestions on how to rig 
your boat.
They have a lot of mainsheet ideas, traveller configurations, spinnaker 
ideas, etc.


Have you checked out their catalog? Or call their tech guys. They have been

Start by telling us what you intend to do with the boat and for us novices,
what is the current setup. If you are racing, there are options which may be
different than if you are casually racing or cruising. I originally went
with a windward sheeting traveler setup on my boat and later realized that
the boat is so stiff and I race in light air that it was overkill (and
expensive). Could have done better with less. And it is a pain when
cruising.

I guess it is not a surprise anymore ? Gladys and I were the surprise 
guests at last weekend?s NE Rendezvous.


I want to personally thank Edd (and his partners) for organizing the 
event and providing us with a remarkable weekend.  It was a real pleasure 
to put faces on names.  The warm welcome and great hospitality will be 
remembered for a long time.


We made it home Monday after a 600 mile drive and now need to sit back 
and enjoy some of that duty free rum.


Thanks to everyone who participated and made our trip a very enjoyable 
one.

Hi guys, I'm to buy an inflatable life jacket with a harness and tether 
and I'm looking for recommendations. I'm told I should get hydrostatic. 
These things run up to $400. Then there is a mustang version on sale at 
defender for $259. I'm interested in what you guys use or recommend. We 
don't go offshore much but, intend to further our cruising ground.

Reminder: 

If anyone wants a mooring at the mouth of the Mystic River for a stopover 
Thursday or Sunday night, and maybe have a bite to eat at one of the dockside 
restaurants

I have two empty moorings good for up to a 40 ft boat with 6 ft draft and there 
are 3-4 inexpensive ($30) transient moorings right next to mine that can take 7 
ft draft.  I also can set up an inexpensive dock for the night, but no showers 
amenities. 

These moorings are just a 1/4 mile from Fishers Island Sound. Simple 
navigation, even I don't get lost or hit anything. 

If you need showers or slips with all the doodads there are three marinas at 
the mouth of the river.  Ice, fuel, etc.

My car will be here if anyone needs a lift to the store or into Mystic.  There 
is also a pharmacy in case David Risch needs to stock up on nitroglycerin, 
viagra, ibuprofen, and axe body spray.

Re: Stus-List new topic mast height C&C 30 MKI

2015-08-10 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
Rick
I doubt that it was a Bermuda 40. Since it was a yawl(or maybe ketch rigged) , 
a  B40 would likely have only 55 ‘ or less mast height. 
My C&C 41 with a triple spreader tall rig is ~ 62 feet above the water. I keep 
thinking that I can make it through most of the ICW bridges.
Perhaps that boat was a Hinkley Souwester 50??

Three basic questions:

 

Reducing 85 feet of air draft to 65 feet requires 40 degrees of heel. What prep 
would you need to do to keep all your gear from ending up on the low side in a 
“gear-alanche”?

 

How in the heck much do those water bags weight to heel a Bermuda 40 that much, 
and just how much stress do those water bags put on the mast?

 

And who in their right mind would take a boat with an 85 foot air draft down 
the ICW anyway?

The vibrations and the singing noises that you have
observed are
classical  examples of vortex shedding. They were
originally described by a
German fluid dynamics engineer, Theodore von Karmann.
If you are interested, do a search on “vortex
shedding”. Wikipeda has a
good description of the phenomena with some pix.  You might
also search “

Re: Stus-List C & C 35 Mk III CB Keel Bolts

2015-07-30 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
I’ve also noted some rusty areas in the bilges of my previous C&C 30 and my 
current C&C 41 CB. The problem was that C&C used steel backing plates and some 
steel washers. I removed the original stuff and replaced it with the proper 
alloy stainless washers, and in some cases I had custom SS plates made and 
insured the they were properly passivated.
Note: 
My Metallurgist friends @ Johns Hopkins U, tell me that many alloys of 
stainless will develop some surface rust while developing a surface protective 
oxide.


I have never noted any  rusting of the keel bolts and never have seen Aluminum 
anything used in the bolts on a C&C.

Paul,

 

I agree with you on the washers.  Some of the spacer that C&C used were 
aluminum wedges to keep the nuts square to the bolts.  Mine were all replaced 
with stainless.  An easy upgrade and well worth it.

Re: Stus-List Need help identifying a book

I can second Gary’s comment. Author was Doug Hanks. He was an Oxford MD sailor 
and into insurance/real estate. He passed away a few years ago, and his family 
decided to discontinue publication..
Used copies are available on Amazon. I believe he wrote another book that was 
about the Annapolis / Oxford Race. It was titled “Regatta”
Muskrat was the funniest sailing book I’ve ever read.
Hope you find it.

  When I lost the hard drive on my laptop, I lost a lot of files – including a 
wish list for books. I’m trying to recreate a portion of the list before the 
local libraries have their annual sales of donated books.

   

  One of the books on my list was an old fiction about an Americas Cup 
challenge organized in Chesapeake Bay. (See, this is at least tangentially 
sailing related) I vaguely recall that the name of the boat was “Muskrat”… or 
that “Muskrat” figured into the title of the book. 

   

  Can anyone help me with the name of the book and the author?

   

  Thanks.

Re: Stus-List Replacement fuel sender for Landfall 38

2014-09-15 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
I replaced a similar unit like your old unit with the Moeller reed switch style 
on my C&C 41 ( 1986 model), and am very happy with. I am particularly pleased 
with the lack of moving parts, immersed in the fuel, and the sealed reed switch 
design. No need to calibrate, if the  tank is reasonably rectangular, if you 
know the depth, and  Moeller has a depth unit to match.

As I recall, the screw holes for the Moeller also matched the pattern for the 
old model.

Hi,

 

Does anyone recognize the fuel sender in the photo at the link below?   This is 
the sender which was in the fuel tank on my 38LF.  I don't think it is the 
original as it appears the tank has previously been replaced.   I have the fuel 
tank at home all cleaned out and nicely painted(no smiley yet).  I don't have a 
decent photo of the fuel gauge(it may be original), and I am hoping on 
purchasing a new sender before going down to the boat.   I am thinking about 
replacing the old unit with a Moeller reed switch (MOE 03576510 15in tank 
depth) which comes calibrated to 33-240 Ohms(is this a standard?).   I tried 
measuring the resistance of the old unit but it is toast.  

 

Any input on the type of old sender or on the reliability of the new reed 
switch sender is greatly welcomed.

All, 

My alternator is putting out too much voltage (15 volts)  It s a 35 amp Apco 
with an internal regulator.  Rather than trying to have it rebuilt I am 
thinking of buying a new alternator.  Is there a higher amp alternator that 
will fit the single pulley without breaking the bank?  I don't want to spend 
$700 for a Balmar.  I have 2 house batteries and 1 start battery.  All are 
currently wet cell, but the next time around they will probably be AGM.

Re: Stus-List binnacle light

2014-07-12 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
Joel

Check the wiring diagram supplied in your C&C  Manual. On my 1986 C&C 41 CB,  
the Binnacle light is separately fused with an in-line fuse. The fuse is in 
series with the binnacle on/off switch located outside in the cockpit on the 
engine instrument panel. The fuse is behind the the panel and is part of the 
wiring harness. Remove the panel and check the switch and the fuse. The switch 
is not well sealed, and I’ve had to replace the switch and/or the fuse from 
time to time.
You may also note that the engine room blower switch is also in the same area, 
and similarly fused.

Good luck

There is no power to my binnacle light.  I've tried every breaker and switch.  
No luck. 
I can either trace the wiring back to the breaker or put a red LED in the

Suggestions?

Re: Stus-List C&C 30 mk1 rudder design

2014-06-11 Thread Don Wagner via CnC-List
Ron
I  purchased a C&C 30 MK in 1972 ( 1973 model, hull # 100) . Raced her until 
1986 when I bought a C&C 41 CB
We won a lot of races on the Chesapeake with her, She is essentially a CCA 
design and we sailed with a 170% genoa
She is a very stiff boat with the 170 and even stiffer with the 155% genoas in 
use with PHRF today
The scimitar rudder worked fine in all kinds of light air or heavy breezes.  
rarely had to reef.
The only problem I had with the tiller rudder was when backing up. Since the 
design is unbalanced, and the rudder had no hard stops,
I had to back up lowly, adjusting the rudder only a few degrees. otherwise the 
loads on the tiller arm would become huge, yank the tiller out of my hand, and 
knock me on my butt.
While I never installed rudder stops, I was afraid the if I did a serious 
mishap might break the rudder or the tiller.

You  may also note that the rudder post is very far aft, and needs to be 
rotated maybe 45 degrees or more to get out of the way, if you need it to clear 
the transom, say with a ladder or get near sea wall. 
No big deal, but you do need to remember it.
I found it to be well built, east to sail, low maintenance, and a great boat 
for racing or cruising with 4 – 5 crew.

My boat is a big version of the old C&C 30. I have noticed no issues in reverse

I used to use the tiller in the rain so I could sit under the dodger, but then

some sail trim or sail reduction.

Good morning,

This is my first entry on the cnc-list. I have 40 yrs. of sailing experiece; 
mostly on Petersons.

I am presently without a boat and have been looking at older C&C 30 mk1's 
(1973-75).

There are several for sale in my area; asking price about $16,000.

They seem to be well built and in good structural cond. Most have diesel 
engines.

My only real concern is the rudder design (swept back, scimitar shaped).

Does this design cause excessive tiller pressure when reaching in heavy air?

How is it for steering when backing into a marina?

I see that in 1976 they redesigned the rudder. I have not seen a decent 1976-78 
mk1 for sale in my area yet.

Do you think I should forget the 1973-75's and wait for a 1976 or later one?

I am looking at boats in this era because they are affordable to me.

 

Thanks for any replies.
