Supposedly many 1980's C's (like my 1908 30-1) had a little yellow and a
little brown added to the white.
That's from listers years ago, I've not tried it.

Re: Stus-List Gel coat

2020-05-21 Thread Shawn Wright via CnC-List
Not strictly related to exterior gelcoat (all mine has been painted), but I
have been amazed at the colour variations of the gelcoat on the interior
liners. Here are a few examples. One shows the area behind the portlight
trim pieces in the salon, and the other shows beneath two different head
labels that I just peeled off. The lower label was for a Raritan head,
which I assume was original given the lighter gelcoat, and the upper was
for a different brand (forget which), and now, there's a third label for
the current Jabsco head on the lower teak cabinet (ugh... I'm afraid to
remove that one!)

There’s a video on the YouTube channel “Boat Works Today” where Andy shows how 
to match gel coat color using a matrix of colors blended together. It’s rather 
complex but he does a great job of explaining the steps.

Subject: Stus-List Opinions on hull/keel crack expansion
I have a crack at my hull/keel joint and am debating filling it with 4200.
It is no significant and as I understand it this is pretty normal for boats
with an external keel. My concern is that since my boats up north in
Wisconsin and spends a good amount of time frozen, I'm wondering if filling
it might actually cause expansion if any water gets down the keel bolt and
through the cracks. One of my keel bolts has had this problem which I
mitigated through drilling a hole on each side of the bulge, epoxy fill and
some vigorous hammering. Thoughts?

Hi All, thank for everyone that provided feedback on genoa track on a C
mk1.

Micheal Brown pointed out an interesting sailing magazine article
http://www.sailmagazine.com/racing/regattas/headsail-sheeting/

My take away here is I should be sheeting as close as 7 degrees up to 10
degrees depending on wind. I visited my boat this weekend and based on my
trigonometry math skills I would have not issue sheeting too close . It
would be difficult to meet the seven degrees in light wind. With that in
mind my concern is shroud location.

Does any one with tracks have interference with the shrouds? I am thinking,
when the wind pick up you want to flatten the foot, visually looks like the
shroud would restrict sail shape. any comments?

problem when sheeting tight while going upwind and using the genny car

I acquired a 1976 C 24 in July '16.  This winter, I pulled the boat and had 
the hull soda blasted.  There were many years of unnecessary anti-fouling paint 
built up and flaking off.

After it was soda blasted, I found crazing of the gel coat everywhere.  There 
were some gel coat blisters near the waterline.  One side was worse than other 
for waterline gel coat blisters.

I did some research online and talked to some local boat mechanics.  The 
recommendation was just barrier coat, and fair the worse of the blisters.

I also had a keel smile.  I dropped the keep and rebidded the keel.  I then put 
two coats of grey Interlux 2000e in gray.  I then faired with some epoxy 
fairing the keel smile and waterline.

I then did two more coats of white interlux 2000e barrier coat.  Contrasting 
color helps ensure coverage.

I put my first coat of Micron CSC in blue 1.5-2 hrs after the 4th coat barrier 
coat.  Again, a contrasting color to ensure coverage.

I then put on 3 coats of Micron CSC in shark white.  So, next time I pull the 
boat, if I see any blue, I know to coat the boat.  If not, I don't at anymore.

Just before I splashed the boat, I cleaned off the depth transducer with 
acetone.  I figure I will just cleaned the depth finder with a little scruby 
from time to time.

I splashed the boat Friday!

You can see pics at: 
http://hhsa.clubexpress.com/content.aspx?page_id=187_id=8237

I also did new running rigging.

As luck would have it, the Yamaha 8 hp shifter broke after launch.  I was lucky 
enough to tie up to the dock and take the partially apart and manually get it 
to shift in gear.  I found the part on ebay.

The next project are the windows and rebuild the head.

didn't happen over the winter. I'm assuming it's been this way for years with 
no I'll affect.  When the boat was surveyed in later 2014 it was bone dry on 
the meter and it doesn't sound wet now.  Someone please put my mind at ease 
Boat is a 76 38. 

Thanks

Re: Stus-List gel coat colour

Hi,


The gelcoat on my old 1979 29-1 was an identical match to oyster white gelcoat 
I purchased at Jamestown Distributors.  I mixed MEKP with the gelcoat in small 
batches using a 10ml and a 1ml syringe(i.e. 10 ml of gelcoat to 0.1 ml of 
MEKP).   This oyster white color is the same as the Awlgrip oyster white so you 
may be able to find an Awlgrip color card locally to check the match.

 The head is now smelling great so thanks for the suggestions. Just draining 
 and cleaning out the fuel tank as we had filter problems. Now gel coat. It is 
 a 1984 29. I tried white to off white gel coat, and then off white to white 
 but it is not working well. I know it is really hard but should I be using 
 other colours in the mix? Will the new gel coat go lighter or darker with 
 time.

Generally, the CC deck color is smoke white which is a blend of brown, black 
and yellow. Best bet is to rent the Instint gelcoat colorbook from 
Fibreglast.com, match the color and order a quart.  F155 is a close match for 
Touché's deck. 

I repair gelcoat quite often and find that using that colorbook works better 
than trying to tint it yourself.
