Re: Stus-List Wisper has launched!
Congratulations Nathan. We have owned our 34 for 20 years and love it. It sails like a dream. Regarding the rudder, we rebuilt ours and found the foam was very degraded. New foam, new skin and all is well. Of note is the design is solid glass top, bottom, leading and trailing edge. The glass is about 3 inches thick and more at the top. You can easily ascertain by tapping the rudder. The bottom has a small section about half way fore/aft where there is no solid glass just the skin to facilitate a drain hole.

Hi All, We finally have Wisper - our 1981 C&C 34 CB we purchased in May in the water! Excited to take her for a first sail tomorrow from Scituate up to Lynn MA where we will be keeping her this season. She was left on the hard by previously owner for two years so lots of cleaning and lots of projects completed, and of course still more to do. A few highlights on where we are at: Thanks to everyone for the feedback previously on the rudder - after drilling holes and draining I determined that it was definitely still solid and that the best thing to do was leave it as is - sealed up the holes with Thixo epoxy and then some barrier coat. This fall when she is pulled I think I’ll install a couple of plugs to make draining easier in the future since keeping the water out doesn’t sound like a realistic possibility in the long run. Refinished the cabin sole, replaced the removing ceiling panels with 3/16” Starboard. Had the sails cleaned and mended. Replaced the glow plug solenoid which had partially failed - the glow plugs were still getting power, but the electric fuel pump which it also runs was not. Replaced the waste hoses and rebuilt the head. I have also been following the bilge pump discussion and decided to install a primary 3.5 gal/min Whale diagram pump with a large low profile screen inlet and WaterWitch in addition to the rule 1500 with rule float switch and the hand pump. Had New England Propeller rebuild the folding 2 blade prop at their strong recommendation to reduce slop and make the blade angles symmetric again - it took Ron a longer than I had hoped to complete it and was the main delay in getting launched the last few weeks, but it came out really nice so I think it was well worth doing. Put the shaft back in with a new PSS shaft seal and new spit coupling (fit and faced by New England Prop as well) and everything went together smoothly. We seem to have a very slow leak at or around one of the through hulls (the waste exit which we likely will not be using at all since we will be staying close to shore for now and getting pump outs), even after tightening the valve as much as I dared. Probably only about a teaspoon or so an hour but if I dry the area off around it, it will get wet again. Any suggestions? Thinking of just leaving it that way for this season until we pull her for the fall. Still to be done: look into the propane system and getting that working again - probably need a new solenoid but I haven’t looked into that yet. Connect the new hot water heater. Replace the faucets in the head and galley, add a shower gray water pump, rig a new vang (the boat didn’t come with one), and perhaps have a dogger and bimini built for her. Plus lots of little maintenance, teak refinishing, etc. Looking to get some new propane tanks (11 lb tall version) as the ones she came with were very rusty. Does anyone make a stainless steel version? I might go aluminum I suppose if I can find one the right size and shape. It would be fun to make it to the north east coast rendezvous at some point, but unfortunately we already have plans for that weekend this year and aren’t set up for cruising that far quite yet.
