Stus-List 81' C 30 - removed a winch, filling deck holes for winter

In an effort to reduce constant dripping from a neglected winch fastened to my deck support along-side the mast (common on the 80’ MK2) I removed it, cleaned with Acetone and filled the holes with Life Caulk. That way my settee below doesn’t get soaked each rainfall during our Vancouver winter.

Re: Stus-List News story

I just saw a very short interview with the women on the news.  Apparently, they were swamped in a storm that washed the engine and damaged the rig.  No more info than that.   Although, both women looked healthy and not very distressed.  They were found 900 miles off Japan.  one statement I found

Re: Stus-List C 34 plus auto pilots

I’ve installed both Ray electric ram and a hydraulic. The hydraulic is slightly more resistance as Gary describes, but the advantage of significant less amp draw far outweighs this. From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Gary Russell via CnC-List Sent:

Re: Stus-List C 34 plus auto pilots

No matter which brand autopilot you use (mine is B Zeus2, I would recommend you use the Raymarine electric ram. The hydraulic units have far too much drag and ruin the feel of the rudder. Gary S/V Kaylarah '90 C 37+ East Greenwich, RI, USA ~~~_/)~~ On Fri, Oct 27, 2017 at 5:27 PM,

Re: Stus-List News story

Yes, but the report in the UK Mail says that they had a mast problem, and could sail at 4-5 knots. I don’t see why that is a problem. The real question is now they got “lost”. Did they have no navigational capability? No solar or wind power? Also, they lost their cell phone overboard the

Re: Stus-List C 34 plus auto pilots

I was told that you could not put an underdeck on my 34+ and so went with a wheel pilot. I have since learned that it is possible, and not really that hard. I wish I had known it sooner, as I really liked the hydraulic unit my older boat had. I would contact Colin Mack at Mack Sails. He did

Re: Stus-List Spreader boots 1984 C 35-3

FWIW, I signed on to having all the rod replaced on our 37’. I received a quote, and I’m guestimating the labor costs because we are doing everything rigging/lifeline related, that came in at around $9,000.00 to $9,500.00. Hope that’s a good reference. Best, Dave Godwin 1982 C 37 - Ronin

Re: Stus-List Spreader boots 1984 C 35-3

Hi Jim I had Blackline do mine in 2010. I replaced the rod with wire. They also installed radar on the mast, replaced corroded spreader tips, etc. Cost was close to $6,800 minus taxes. Cheap compared to the cost of the new motor I'm in the process of putting in. By the way, we followed

Re: Stus-List (no subject)

I used the key way, but I understand that some rudders have the key way extend down further than others. So you may be able to use the key way or not. Gary ~~~_/)~~ On Fri, Oct 27, 2017 at 11:54 AM, Danny Haughey via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > Gary, > > Did you just

Re: Stus-List (no subject)

Doug, I “copied” Gary’s design and am happy with the results. My rudder shaft did not have a keyway (Gary’s had one) so I ended up having to drill a 3/8” hole through a 3” stainless steel tube with ½” thick walls. Edson makes an appropriate tiller arm with a 3/8” hole pre-drilled. I used

Re: Stus-List Spreader boots 1984 C 35-3

Finally got a quote from Blackline. Initial estimate was $5K, full quote was $10K. I'm not sure what Plan B is at this point, that's double what I have heard from others who have done the switch from rod to wire. Jim Watts Paradigm Shift C 35 Mk III Victoria, BC On 7 October 2017 at 18:11,

Re: Stus-List (no subject)

Gary, Did you just use the key-way or did you drill through the rudder post as well?  I really like how you installed it all at home and then just glassed in the shelf! Danny On 10/27/2017 11:24 AM, Gary Russell via CnC-List wrote: Hi Doug,      I had to cut a section out of the tube

Hi Kyle, I have a C 27 that I have sailed on-and-off for several years (life and work keep getting in the way). I have had a single burner propane "swing stove" for several years. I tried to fine one like mine online but don't see the exact unit. The first link takes you to one that is

Re: Stus-List (no subject)

Hi Doug, I had to cut a section out of the tube (terrifying) but it worked out great. Just do all the reinforcing first, before you cut it so everything stays lined up. The tube supports the deck. See pictures below: Gary ​ High Maintenance Autopilot Project

Stus-List Jib trade?

I have a 37/40 xl. We have a racing jib on board that we are considering cutting and modifying for a cruiser friendly jib. It has battn pockets ( no battens) and goes all the way to the deck. No uv fabric. It has only been used 2 seasons so is in good shape. Anyone have a cruising jib to trade?
