Re: Stus-List CC 37plus Draft

Re: Stus-List Dingy Repair
I have '94 Achilles that has spent June thru November on a mooring all it's life. One fall after a month's absence I came to the boat and found that it had deflated and submerged the motor. I resurrected the motor and got a quart of the latex sealer sold to stop pin hole leaks. I added it to the 3 air compartments and then rolled the dingy all around the lawn to cover all the interior surfaces. Pumped it up and left it in the barn all winter. It held air fine.

You never know with these old A4s. I?m sure you are right about the estimate but I have some wiggle room before I get to the value of the boat. The PO was planning on salvaging the rig and crushing the hull so you can imagine what I might have paid. The boat looked tough but most of the issues (and there are a lot) are cosmetic. After three weeks we are ready to get her in the water and do some sailing before the season is over. I have spent so far just over $1500 and a LOT of elbow grease. My wife is a very good seamstress and she is willing to do the cushions including adding some back rests. We already have the materials in hand (Sunbrella). I am not using Awlgrip, just some decent deck and epoxy paint. The hull is in good shape and I will not be completely stripping the old paint. It is in good shape, just a little beat up and the wrong color. I am keeping in mind that this is not ever going to be a show boat. Just making it look good and feel good for two to spend a weekend on board. If sails come into ! the picture that number goes out the door. We will see where it all ends up but I am confident at this point that my efforts on this boat will (for the first time in my life) probably come back to me when I sell her for a bigger boat (the real upgrade).

It's not a bad job, but I always remember why I bought the stubby Phillips #2 screwdriver when I do it. The previous weekend I dumped four gallons of vinegar into the system to clear scale off. It worked for the joker valve, but I was still having issues with the pump losing prime and not drying easily without holding the valve leaver down. Once apart, it was pretty obvious why - the metal backing washer from one of the inlet valve had corroded off the rubber piece, and while I was there I just changed all the parts that were in the service kit. Joker valves seem to be common across head designs, and a necessary evil, but I am fed up with having to rebuild the pump on the Headmate once or twice a year, so am planning to replace it this winter.
