Stus-List Water Tanks - now source for Kracor Tanks

Long story short: both of the water tanks on my 38 have cracks in the water fill fitting. The tanks are mold number 5060, and model number 75330 (which I presume indicates the location of the vent, fill, and drain fittings. The cracks radiate out from the threaded fitting. The Kracor catalog sa

Allrighty then – have an alternate perspective on plastic fuel tanks. My trusty Yanmar mechanic (years of experience and formerly on their advisory group) indicates a plastic tank may create an issue of compliance to current regulations on fire safety in an enclosed area with an attendant impac

Scott, Welcome to the list. You will find a lot of good advice and quite a few characters on this list. The Mk-III owners (and some former owners) are here to support you if you have any model specific questions. We take C&C's very seriously here. Everything else..not so much. Jake

Glenn, Honestly, the only thing I did was wiring -- a few were loose so I stripped, cleaned and made better connections. That's when the lights came on and the plate started getting cold. The temp in the chest dropped 5 degrees in a half hour -- which leads me to believe the compressor works.

Re: Stus-List Danfoss Compressor Controller

Edd or Tom, How did you decide it was the controller and not the compressor? Is there a way to test to determine if the current controller is bad? My controller is a 102N3030 12V DC with a 15 amp fuse. I believe the digital control that you found on line will work in my boat, but I hate to

Re: Stus-List Water heaters

Hey, those look pretty good. Good timing - I had just ordered a replacement raritan heater - the original seems to have rusted out - but looks like the order didn't go through. I think I'll get one of these instead. Thanks! Bill Hall Starfire, 1985 C&C 37 On Tue, Sep 19, 2017 at 3:18 PM, Dennis C.

I have a Raymarine e7D plotter at the helm and find it very useful; easy to read and fairly intuitive to operate. One thing I really like is that it transmits via wifi, so at the nav station I keep a first or second generation iPad Velcro-ed to the nav station bulkhead as a repeater. It's truly

Matthew Exactly. You have several other devices in conjunction with your iPad. Your decision to use an iPad at helm is no different than mine to use a Garmin at helm. Both can stop working at any time which is why you have redundant systems and why we all keep paper charts on hand as well.

I can tell you for sure the tanks in my 1980 C&C 40 are the 5060 on page 31. Several years ago I ordered a special unit like the 5060 that was only 30 inches long (so now only 20 gallons) to make room for an air conditioning unit. It was a piece of cake. It fit perfectly on the bunks and does
