Re: Stus-List 1GM10 Repower

I just had my 2QM15 for my C 32 rebuilt over the winter and they did an 
excellent job.  We also had another club member Schooner Bay about 3 or 4 years 
ago and he has been very happy too.

Subject: Stus-List 1GM10 Repower

 

About five years into a six month refit and the block in my 1GM10 has let go. 

 

What started off as top end rebuild has "progressed" into a full repower 
project. Given the cramped (shall we say intimate?) engine bay accommodations, 
i am inclined to drop in a 1gm10 reman and hopefully save some of the season. 
Unfortunately, i am having a bit of trouble sourcing one. The only one i've 
been able to find is located at Schooner Bay Marina Wisconsin; full rebuild 
with 1-year warranty.   

 

For anyone who have been through a similar experience - any suggestions on 
vendors and/or lessons learnt the hard way?  Does anyone have any experience 
with Schooner Bay Marina? 

 

best,

matt

In this case you do not need to replace the toe rail, just re-bed it after 
cleaning up everything.  Still a major job.

 Thanks, Bob. This is
 great information! I was wondering where one might find  scale drawings. I 
will contact the museum. 
 
 Good to hear removing
 the toe rail will not affect the joint structurally. I  thought it might, but 
it doesn't seem to be the case.
 
 
 Thanks for all
 the links to vendors! I am replying here to everyone who  responded, so I 
don't send multiple emails. 
 
 Ken - yes, it is the slotted
 aluminum toe rail. As far as I know, the reasons for  replacement are leaks 
and corrosion. I was not involved in  the decision to replace the toe rail. The 
C 43'
 belongs to my university, and I am one of her skippers.
 Great boat!
 
 I had not seen
 the do it yourself album yet - very useful, thanks. I am  poking around  the 
website now - great resource!
 
 We tried Holland Marine already, but they  didn't have our toe rail. Rob 
McLaughlin and Klacko  Spars are new names for me - thanks for the links. If 
anyone  can think of other possible sources for that toe rail,  please let me 
know.

 All the drawings for the C 43

 43 you own (original name of boat or her first owner) you  most can likely get 
copies of the drawings relating  specifically to your 43.
 However, merely removing and

 A replacement

 Stus-List 1973 custom C 43' - hull/deck joint (toe  rail replacement?)  
Greetings all.
 
 
 Might someone here
 help with questions about the custom C 43' from
 1973? This was a limited edition and I think only fourteen
 boats were ever built. We would like to replace the toe rail
 on our boat, but are unsure how that might affect the
 hull/deck joint. 
 
 Some
 specific questions:
 
 1
 - What is the structure of the hull/deck joint on the 1973
 C 43'? 
 2 - How is the toe
 rail integrated with the hull/deck joint?
 3 - What happens if we remove the toe
 rail (or part of it)? 
 
 Good advice will be appreciated.

Not sure I agree with your conclusions.  7x19 SS wire isn’t what I would call 
cheap, plus you would pay for a rigger to do a wire to rope splice plus an eye 
splice. A hybrid high tech line like New Englands “VPC” is much less expensive 
($1.79/ft for 7/16” at defender) and it only would need an eye splice at one 
end. As for replacing the sheeves, may of us on the list have had no problems

Last year, I was thinking of replacing my halyard with all rope halyard.  
However, after a fairly lengthy discussion with sailmaker and rigger,
I decided to replace with wire rope.  I wasn't that keen in replacing the 
sheeve at the masthead, and my rigger successfully argued that
the wire rope halyard had served it's purpose well for the last 30 years...(not 
sure if was original) so why not replace it with the same.
That statement probably cost him a fair bit of profit as all rope halyard would 
have been more expensive, but I respect him for giving
an honest answer.

Re: Stus-List Diagram for deck arrangement on CC 32?

2015-03-05 Thread Michael Clow via CnC-List
Hello Hans-Erik,

 

Welcome to the list and congratulations on your purchase.  With the boat
being over 30 years old there is a good chance that it does not have the
original  deck set up any more.  I am a very serious club racer and have
changed the deck layout to reflect that need.  As I also do a lot of double
handed sailing so the running rigging is run back to the cockpit but is also
set up to be available at the mast too.  I have a few photos on the layout
at:  http://desiresailing.org/DeckSetUp.htm.

 

Where are you located and what kind of sailing do you plan to do?

 Hi David, 

As another data point / alternative: 

All my halyards have been replaced with New England Ropes Sta-Set at some
point.  I just replaced a couple spin halyards and used Sta-Set again as per
my riggers' recommendation.  According to my rigger the sheaves on our boats
are 'Hybrid sheaves meaning their design will accommodate either without
any issues.  

When it's really blowing, you have to re-tighten the main halyard on
occasion, the rest are pretty much set and forget. 

This spring, I also replaced the main sheet, boom vang control, and
cunningham, all with Sta-Set.  It's reasonably priced and works well.

We have a baby stay on our CC 32 and regularly use it going to weather in more

main.  Ours is attached to a track on the deck and we can easily release it 
when off the wind of if the wind lightens.  When jibing the chute I make sure 
it is at my back when I do the jibe which keeps it out of the way when 
attaching the pole to the mast.  We occasionally use it in light air going down 
wind as a fraculator.

I raced on a 29-2 with a symmetricl chute.  It did not hve  a baby stay. I have 
a baby stay on my 35-3 and have used it once upwind into a sea.  Otherwise it 
is clipped near the base of the mast.

It's not a problem but I think it will be more effort and more powerful than
the J24 but maybe not as fast as the J24. Most of the 29's I have seen use a
triradial cut 180% kite  with pole and downhaul and most also do end for end
jibes...very pretty boat and lots of fun when flying downwind

Subject: Stus-List CC 29-2 Spinnaker

I am considering buying a CC 29-2 (1983) and would like to know how/if a
symmetrical spinnaker would work on these boats. I am looking at a boat
nearby, but it only has a cruising asymmetrical spinnaker.  My current boat
is a J/24 and I am looking for something a little more comfortable but also
performance oriented. Since I have a crew for racing on the J/24, we would
also want to set a spinnaker on the CC.  The problem is the baby/inner stay
that bisects the fore deck. Yes, I understand that we could disconnect it
for the downwind leg, but that seems to be added complexity that I would
rather avoid. The concern that I have is that the only photo of a
symmetrical spinnaker I can find on the WEB is the original sales brochure.
So, I am thinking its just a big hassle to fly a symmetrical on these boats.
Any thoughts?
-Ken

Re: Stus-List CC 30 mkII preventers

2014-06-15 Thread Michael Clow via CnC-List
As long as you have the slotted toe rail and the traditional arrangements of 
primary and secondary cockpit winches  you could use your outboard jib sheets.  
We put a snatch block near the mid point of the trunk cabin windows on the toe 
rail.  We run the line aft along the toe rail to the secondary (spin) winch.  
We have a snap shackle on the forward end to the line.  Until needed (outboard 
jib sheet, preventer or asymmetrical guy) we keep the forward end attached to 
the life line.

 

When a preventer is needed we unclip the outboard jib sheet from the life line 
and attach to the bottom of the boom and take up the slack on the aft/secondary 
cockpit winch.  If you will be jibing you can hook up the other side as a lazy 
preventer.  When it is time to jib you release the preventer and take up on the 
lazy preventer when the jib is completed.  Both sides can be left on going to 
weather too.  This works great for doublehanded sailing.  If not needed I do 
tend to take them off the base of the boom as I like having a clear walkway 
from the cockpit to the front of the boat.

 

I have pictures of this setup on my website at:

Looking for pictures / drawings for preventer set up on a 30-2. Advice from 
others would be valuable too, but especially helpful from fellow 30-2 folks. 
Thanks!

Hi Glen,

I've done the port side toe-rail. Starboard not leaking yet :)

No big deal except a few nuts are difficult to get at. 
- remove toe rail, two parts
- clean up corrosion and repair with Devcon or other epoxy/metal repair
compound
- sand repair areas and paint (I used flat black spray paint)
- apply butyl tape  reinstall (do not tighten hard, just a wee bit o'
squeeze on butyl)
- rinse  go for a sail

Cheers, Russ
Sweet 35 mk-1
