Re: Stus-List now cored hulls

I know someone that had to do some core repairs on a C 40. The boat had sat on the hard for years with water in the bilge and the freeze-thaw cycles had cracked the hull from the inside. He said it wasn’t a lot of money, just a lot of PITA work under the boat grinding and laminating. Now if

Re: Stus-List now cored hulls

Don't get me wrong, we really enjoyed Mojito, and had just upgraded a lot of things in anticipation of extended ownership before life took an unexpected turn and we went for a more "cruisey" option. They are great boats. We had two areas of core we had to replace in the hull; from the turn

Re: Stus-List now cored hulls

If that happened to me I’d be a hater too. I know of a couple, through friends of ours, that bought C 40 hull #1. They raced it and spent winters in the Bahamas on it. We spoke with them often as we were acquiring our 37 about some of the pros and cons of C’s. As a new C owner I was quite

Re: Stus-List Vancouver Area C 35/36 search questions

Hi Chris I've got an '83 35-3, and love it. The hull is cored, but is solid where C installed any thru-hulls, and the moisture meter found no issues at purchase (6 years ago) and since. My deck has a damp spot, which is par for the course for boats of this age. As has been said, a good

Tim - Well that’s gotta suc… If you’re writing the checks you can hate all you want. Am curious however how much of the issue was in the hull itself. I would have thought most of the bilge sump sections would be areas of solid laminate. Sorry to hear of your problems. John (not the guy
