Re: Stus-List Overheating as high RPM only

If you have a heat exchanger, that could be getting clogged. Open the end/s and look at the tubes. Sea water flows through these cooling the coolant. Over time they plug up and need to be cleaned. I use a long drill bit and doubled up 0.040 safety wire, then a bore brush.  Doug Mountj

Re: Stus-List Teak cleaner and Awlgrip

Mike, I don't like the two part teak cleaners cause they raise the grain requiring a lot of sanding. I found the best treatment for dirty teak is; Joy dish detergent in warm water and scrub with bronze wool. (Steel wool leaves metal hairs that will rust and stain the wood) Start with rough br

Re: Stus-List Spinnaker pole storage

Last year I had a borrowed twist lock whisker pole and was able to store it mounted on the mast. I don’t use a spinnaker, so I attached it to the ring on the car for the spinnaker pole and raised it to the top of the track and attached the bottom to the mast base fitting. To deploy, all I had t

Mike: Phosphoric acid, (Part B for the two part teak cleaner kits) is commonly used used for darkening teak from white back to its brown color, can damage the pigment in Awlgrip. Use a teak cleaner with oxalic acid only and you should be O.K. Why not simply use TSP? Rob AZURA C&C 32 - 84 H

Re: Stus-List Overheating as high RPM only

Read an article recently on impellers looking perfectly fine, but the "fins" had become detached from the hub. The drive pin did not go all the way through the hub to the rubber fins so it allowed the hub to slip inside the fins. So impeller may look absolutely fine, but not fully functioning.

Stus-List Overheating as high RPM only

We did a run last weekend to a local harbor for the weekend. Wind was fluky and it was a short trip so we were motoring. Alera has a Yanmar 3HM35 with around 700 original hours and was running fine at our usual cruising RPM of 26-2800 on the tach. The hot alarm went off and I let her cool do

I have a 2:1 on my 30-1. It goes through a clutch that I have mounted on the boom. Makes adjustments much easier. Cheers, Aaron Admiral Maggie 79 30-1 > On May 3, 2015, at 5:29 PM, John Pennie via CnC-List > wrote: > > Yes, a bit of an oxymoron. > > So I was happily replacing 15 year old

Re: Stus-List Single Line Reefing

John, You may find that the block that is strong enough to use for your single line reefing system may be larger than desired. Nobody wants a big honkin' block dangling off the leech of the sail. It might also present a hazard to the crew as you raise the sail. I prefer the jiffy reefing system

Re: Stus-List Internal Outhaul

I'd second the adjustability benefit. Somehow it also seems very difficult for people to grasp "a small ease/trim" when using a winch. Outhaul adjustments are pretty small and the purchase arrangement makes that easier to see. We have a 1:1 to a winch... Tim C&C 35-3 Branford, CT On Mon, May 4

Re: Stus-List Spinnaker pole storage

I bought a Forte spinnaker pole ~ 8-10 years ago. At that time it was significantly less than the Forespar and IMHO wound on a mandrel and stronger. A few years later they made a custom adjustable whisker pole for me since I insisted I wanted a duplicate to the equivalent aluminum pole regarding

Re: Stus-List Internal Outhaul

The winch is likely in use trimming spinnaker or something else when you most want to adjsut the outhaul and it is so sweet when main trimmer asks for more outhaul that you can just reach over and give it a little pull to make the adjustment. On 03/05/2015 6:29 PM, John Pennie via CnC-List wro

Another disadvantage of going with a bladder is that you couldn't use a fuel gauge to tell fuel level. If you intend to do any kind of cruising, this would be a big disadvantage. Bob Boyer S/V Rainy Days / Annapolis MD 1983 C&C Landfall 38 - Hull #230 email: dainyr...@icloud.com blog: dainyray
