Spencer,
Pegasus can only motor at 6.5kts gps speed with my Yanmar 3qm30. I have a
2 blade fixed prop and am a live aboard (lots of extra weight). Rarely do
I see 8kts. I don't run the engine faster than 2200, as the 3qm39 vibrates
a lot. If you are getting black smoke you might want to look
I agree with Andy's response. The tapping around areas of concern will give
strong indication of issues if any with the laminate and / or core.
We are 1.5 years into a deck restoration on Calypso (hull #1 of the 43's
launched in January 1970 from Bruckmann's custom yard). We have explored
I am feeling really under powered with a Westerbeke 27 in my LF38but pretty
economical. Still have trouble punching thru waves, but can motor sail at over
8 knots...I can motor over 7 knots but the stern digs in and I get a black
'moustache' on my stern from unburnt fuel...or so I've been

that sounds like tough way to get anywhere, and break something in a
process. I had A4 for about 10 years on the same boat '76 38. Switched to
westerbeke 40 in 2012. I don't see a great amount of increased power when
going to wind between A4 to W40. As you said, power comes from the
Fuel cost comparison is a red herring.
For most people on this list the amount spent on motoring boat fuel
this winter is remarkably the same whether the auxiliary power is
electric, gasoline or diesel. :)

True. Using my fuel usage numbers from Touche's AT4 experience and
Universal 25XPB:
Diesel
0.7 gph x $2.76 = $1.93/hr
Gasoline
1.0 gph x $1.83 = $1.83/hr
That's pretty much the same $$ in my book.
The big difference is range.
Diesel
18 gallons/0.7 gph = 26 hours
Hello all,
I've found a mid 70s CC 33-1 that I'm interested in buying. One thing the
survey indicated was elevated moisture levels, into the yellow on the meter, in
the bottom. The owner had the bottom epoxy barrier coated about 8 years ago,
and the bottom paint was new last year. There were
He should have tapped the hull, too, which would tell him if there is any
delamination. High readings could be caused by condensation inside the boat.
Bottom line is that I would tend to trust him. Get a second opinion, if you're
not confident.
Great boat! Good luck with your purchase.

The 1:1 drive is sub-optimal for the 35, but changing over to the reduction
gear seams a major PITA.

Tom, My 36 does the same thing. It did with a fixed prop and it does it with
a two blade Max Prop. I believe I also have an 18 prop but am not sure off
the top of my head. If its fairly flat I can get 7 knots.It bothered me

Paul, contact me off line, mbranno...@cox.net . I'm fairly certain that I
have a set of new one I bought and didn't instal prior to my 3QM30 biting the
dust. I'll just have to locate them in my workshop. I'm certain that we can
make a deal.
