Stus-List LED Cabin Lighting
I found some 12 v emergency lights at a Restore for $6 each. They didn't have an incorporated switch so that cost another $5 for a small rocker switch from a local electronics store, then replaced the bulb with an LED I got on e-Bay for peanuts (from China). Cheap and works great. Cheers, J-G Callisto, 35 Mk2 ___ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions. Each and every one is greatly appreciated.

Stus-List Traveler fit
Call Garhauer. Theirs are cheaper, great quality and service is excellent. I went for a MT-1 traveller. Speak to Guido. You will need exact details of the location of the bolt holes so that they can duplicate the bolt pattern of your existing track. I will send a PM to you with a copy of my invoice. NB. Mine was for a 35 MkII so yours might be slightly different in size but model should work out well.

Stus-List Marine Batteries
Just tuned in to this string. Has anyone recommended the Costco batteries? I use 4 x 6-volt golf cart batteries. They are under $140 Cdn and can be replaced at any Costco outlet if you have issues. Another good policy someone told me about years ago is to buy all your batteries from the same manufactured batch. Check the date stamp or sticker on the battery to be sure.

Stus-List Hard Bimini
What boat? With our 35 Mk2 we have a hard dodger and soft bimini. Because of the low boom we have to fold the bimini when under mainsail. Slower design would not give sufficient headroom in the cockpit. The boom just clears the dodger. We have solar panels mounted on the top of the bimini frame.

Stus-List Coin under the mast.
The ceremonial practice is believed to originate from ancient Rome. One theory is that, due to the dangers of early sea travel, the coins were placed under the mast so the crew would be able to cross to the afterlife if the ship were sunk. I like the gatekeeper reference! Cheers, J-G Callisto 35 mkll ___ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions. Each and every one is greatly appreciated.

Stus-List Cleaning through hulls
Best Best part way to clean thru-hulls is soaking in muriatic acid. It is hazardous so care must be taken in handling the product. Wear gloves and use in a well ventilated area. Depending on the condition it may take a few changes of acid but it will clean everything completely. Rinse well with fresh water and apply lubrication to the valves afterwards. It also does wonders on plumbing hoses. Muritatic acid will not affect any bronze, brass or plastic parts. Do not use on anchor chains as it will remove galvanization.

Stus-List Converting to LED lighting
Anyone contemplating conversion to LED should check out sources on E-Bay. Prices are super cheap and quality is good. Search 'marine LED (+bulb type)’. Ex. Marine LED 15s or 15d.

Re: Stus-List Traveler for C 35 Mk II
When you contact Guido, at Garhauer, he asks for all the specs on spacing of bolts, length of track, etc, etc. Hopefully, with a few more orders for the same track they will have a set design they can use for future orders.
