Re: Stus-List Standing Rigging Rust

As you mentioned the tools used to cut and crimp the terminals are usually carbon steel. During the tooling process some of those iron ions transfer to the tooled item and subsequently rust. If the rig was just replaced I would say that it is most likely that. Most chandleries sell bronze wool

Stus-List Standing Rigging Rust

Hello All, Less than a year ago I had the standing rigging replaced on our C 25. Recently I noticed some rust on the turnbuckles. Also, there is rust on the lines that runs in a spiral pattern all the way up. I called our local rigger and he offered to take a look, but be's been so busy

Re: Stus-List Switching to rope halyards

I'm guessing your halyard wrap had little to do with wire vs rope halyard. My intuition says wire halyards are less prone to wrap. Like Josh said, determine why first. Harken recommends a minimum of 7-10 degrees divergence between the halyard and forestay. If your halyard parallels the forestay

Re: Stus-List Switching to rope halyards

I switched to all rope halyards and haven't looked back. Your sheeves at the top are probably 'V' shaped and can box the rope halyard. That is the least of your concerns. There is a chance that they are chewed up from years of service with a wire rope. Zepherworks.com is the place to go for

Stus-List Switching to rope halyards

Hi, Anyone have experience going from wire/rope halyards to all rope? One of my two wire genoa halyards got twisted around the furler this spring prompting me to want to replace them. I gather I have to investigate the mast sheaves to see if they are appropriate for the job. On the cabin top

Hi Violeta, There’s a gentleman on the list by the name of Martin DeYoung who owns a C 43. He has been working deck work on his boat and may be an informative source as regards your model. He hasn’t posted in some time but perhaps he may respond. Perhaps if you could identify the type of

Re: Stus-List 29-2 outhaul

So you have the same single-wire to single-rope system as we have on our 35. You could put a block system inside the boom to make it easier, although harder to clean and maintain, put a small block on the outhaul shackle at the clew and double the purchase, or do like I did and run the outhaul

Stus-List 1973 custom C 43' - hull/deck joint (toe rail replacement?)

Greetings all. Might someone here help with questions about the custom C 43' from 1973? This was a limited edition and I think only fourteen boats were ever built. We would like to replace the toe rail on our boat, but are unsure how that might affect the hull/deck joint. Some specific

Edd, Change your dilithium crystals! But seriously, lots of good advice, I would also consider a good quality multi meter that you can trust for accurate voltage. I have an Ideal digital multi meter that also measures AC & DC amps that you clamp on a single wire. It wasn't expensive and I use

How does one interpret "right handed"?  Looking from the stern, is the prop turning clockwise or counter?Does one use the old physics notation:  if your fingers of the right hand curl in the direction of rotation, then the thumb points in the direction of movement?RonWild CheriC 30-1STL

Re: Stus-List Propeller

Thank you Rob. The primary use of my boat is club racing on a relatively small lake. Generally I only motor ten minutes to get out of the marina, and ten minutes to get back in, a couple times a week. No cruising, no punching through chop. For me right now the most important thing is making

Hi Ryan (and Andrew R. White, if you're still on the list), I'll take you up on your offer to answer questions about getting a pump in that deep forward bilge sump. If I'm reading correctly, you didn't rebuild your mast step? That is one of the offseason projects I'll be tackling this

JMHO The best all around prop for the 30MI with an A-4. http://www.atomic4.com/propeller.html If you are a hard core racer, this might not be the prop for you. Otherwise, this will yield easier docking, more punch through a chop, higher RPM (good for the engine in many ways), higher causing

Re: Stus-List Battery Charger / ACR -- Some Details

Doug, If the battery charger has an Equalization Phase, then the charge voltage will be between 15-16 volts. This is something that should be done rarely (once every few months to once a year). Perhaps the the charger is defective, or possibly it gets confused if the charger is shut off
