Stus-List Electronics update
Hi All, Great info being passed around. We are upgrading our instruments and have a few questions. 1. Our depth transducer is located +/_ 2 feet on center line behind the keel. Is this the normal location? 2. Has any on change the spreader and mast head lights to LEDs, and what brand would you suggest using. 3. Is anyone using a backstay radar mount. I think this is the best option. Currently it is on a pole with two ugly braces that interfere with the swim ladder. For those using the backstay mount any issues?

Re: Stus-List Electronics update
I use the Questus backstay mount with no problems. It is pricey, though. The PHRF varies depending on your location. Most local PHRF organizations have a web site that you can look for the PHRF of similar boats.

Re: Stus-List Electronics update
Ours, as I though most were, is head of the keel. We went from a pole to a Questus. Much cleaner look and works great. David F.

Re: Stus-List Electronics update
Hi John, 1- My transducer is in front of the keel. I think this is most manufacturer recommendation. If yours is working fine, leave it there. 2- I am using marinebeam.com product for the LEDs. I have a BA9S for AquaSignal deck streaming LED light (sku BA-9S-5W), a BA9S 15 LEDs (sku BA-9S-15-CW) for Anchor light and a 44mm festoon (sku FS-44-30B-CW) for the mid mast AquaSignal navigation light. 3- I leave that to others.

Re: Stus-List Electronics update
You want the transducer somewhere where it will not be affected by turbulence. Most depth and speed transducers are ahead of the keel and as close to the centerline as practical, for that reason.

Re: Stus-List Electronics update
These numbers are by region and are for a boat in typical racing condition. For a c&c it would mead 150% genoa, 180% spin, folding prop. The numbers listed are before adjustments are applied and are referred to as Base Boat ratings. The range is because every area does not have the same rating for the same model hence the average of the areas, the lowest area and the highest area. The C&C 36 in most areas is 132 but has a number of areas that rate it faster and some hat rate it slower. This is a great tool though.
