Greg, I got a custom track extension and gate made by Tom Luque, at Mastgate. MastGates.com Tom was very helpful in designing and sending me a system that worked for the mast in my CC35 II (original spar, 1974). He will certainly work with you to design something specific. I wanted to extend

This discussion made me think about the situation on my boat with a Universal M4-30. I looked at the engine diagram and parts list online and found no mention of a mixing elbow. Is this a Yanmar specific issue? If so, how does the Universal handle exhaust? Dave On Nov 15, 2014, at 9:11 AM,

Unless your boat has a dry exhaust - not likely - you have a way to mix exhaust and water somewhere. At least back in the Atomic 4 days Universal did not make mixing elbows, so the installer was left to buy or fabricate one. Mine is made of black iron pipe from Home Depot and I try and remember to

Interesting. I replaced teak rails with stainless on a J30 a few years ago. It had over/under handrails. We kept the teak rails underneath. Over/under rails add a level of complexity when replacing with stainless. It's important to plan how you do it. Sent the old capintop rails to

Stus-List Retrieving reefing lines

2014-11-15 Thread Jonathan Boocock via CnC-List
I find the fastest way to do this is to use a tape measure that is sufficiently long and rigid. Extend it through the boom. Once through use electrical tape to tape the end of the reefing line to the end of the tape measure and pull it through. It doesn't take much more than a minute per line. I

That's a well thought out procedure, Dennis; thanks for sharing. I have considered exterior SS handrails for Alianna but as another lister pointed out I just preferred the look of the teak handrails on my 1974 design...so keeping that teak looking good is my challenge...cetol seems to hold up

Dave, I put a Universal M30-B in my club launch two years ago, and it had a mixing elbow supplied loose, I had to add a 2 long pipe between the manifold and the elbow. If you go to page 13 of the manual in the link below, you'll see it. Not sure if the M4-30 has the same, as the manual on

David, Westerbeke/Universal calls it an exhaust riser or exhaust elbow. At the end of the exhaust manifold, you will find a connection to an elbow made of cast aluminum (at least that is what the elbow in my M35B is made of). The side of the riser/elbow has a tapped hole with a plug very close

I won't be sad to see West go. Their prices were good when they came in, but I find them too expensive. I have one within walking distance of my office, but I'd prefer to go just about anywhere else. I'm guessing most other Canadian boaters are the same Hence they head back home. Buh

I have a commercial (Port Supply) account with WM. I find I can buy cheaper from Defender, eBay, among others, than my commercial account. Of course, Port Supply discounts are volume based. If you buy $40-50K a year from them, they're great. Dennis C. On Sat, Nov 15, 2014 at 6:08 PM, Colin

One of the problems they faced was the see-sawing $CAD. When it was really lurching around vs. the $USD, we would sometimes see two or three different prices for the same item in one month. In the end, however, I think they gave up to some extent and just let it ride as too much. Jim Watts
