Re: Stus-List Tell me about the 35 MKIII-CB

[Mike Casey via CnC-List]

The C&C 35MKIII model had an issue with the attachment of the keel. Not
all, but some. Very serious, check it out.

*Re: fixing water tanks:*

You do not need the TAP stuff, just use West System epoxy. You have to
pre-heat with the torch as he says. I used some glass cloth and it has
worked fine. You have nothing to lose.

I sealed mine with West System epoxy. You have to gently heat the tank with
a propane torch just before applying.

Stus-List Solar panel - how to hook one up?

[Mike Casey via CnC-List]

I have just taken the Power and Sail Squadron Marine Electronics course. If
you can take it, I would urge you to do so. It has to be one of the best
courses I have taken.

I bought a solar panel for my C&C 30. I can attach it to the boat fine, but
hooking it up so it can recharge the batteries is a mystery.

Is there anyone out there who can give me some good instructions that I can
understand?

My specifics are:

There are three batteries (one starting, two house) that have to be charged
It has to be on all the time
It needs the charge controller to be entered into the equation somewheres.

Assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I currently have a C&C 30. I like how stiff it is. Would anyone know how
the C&C 36 would compare?

I'll be using it for coastal cruising in Nova Scotia.

Would it be too much to handle for an old guy (65 years of age).

Any comments would be appreciated.

Re: Stus-List Looking for a C&C 35 MKI

[Mike Casey via CnC-List]

Thank you. It looks like a beautiful yacht, but oddly enough I am looking
for a MKI. It is tempting though.

I have heard that the MKIII had construction issues where the keel is
attached. Have you heard about that? I would be interested in your comments.

Many thanks,

Mike Casey

Re: Stus-List Sail Drives in general > Maintenance?

[Mike Casey via CnC-List]

I would never have one. The more changes in direction you have in a
mechanical device the more complicated it becomes. In one instance here the
yard got a strap around it when taking the boat out of the water. I need
not explain the result.

Stus-List Post to the list

[Mike Casey via CnC-List]

Hi folks,

I bought a C&C 30 this past summer. I have been able to figure everything
out except the full cockpit enclosure. It is Sunbrella and comes in a small
bag. It attaches to the bimini, after the boom is clipped to the toe rail.
I can see where it goes back and there are slots for the twin back stay.
There are two I would say 10 foot ling plastic strips. One it appears goes
across the back end through loops.

All that is good, but I'll be darned if I can figure out how to hang it
from something so that it stays well above the cockpit.

No stainless poles as normally found in dodgers came with it.

Any C&C owner with a main sheet that is not on the cabin top may be able to
help me out with this.

Any thoughts??

Thanks,

Mike Casey
Halifax, Nova Scotia

Re: Stus-List C&C30-1 climb to top of mast?

You use two halyards; you go up on the main; the jib is used as a spare.
Don't use the clips; tie bowlines.
