Re: Stus-List 2018 C&C Northeast Rendezvous -- Possible Change in Venue

Edd; Not sure if I understand how the list works yet. I hope I'm responding just to you. I was looking forward to the rendezvous as I am coming from your neighborhood and it was a days sail for me. Milford still fits the bill for me. I'm in either way. Charles Ferrari Destrier 73 C&C30 Evers M

Re: Stus-List Dacron Roller Furling #1

Rather new to sailing Mike. I'm guessing that #1 means it's a light air sail? Is it a 135? Wade On Tue, May 1, 2018, 07:24 Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List, wrote: > I just thought I would post this here because it may benefit somebody on > the list rather than just post locally on kijiji > > > > Persis

Re: Stus-List Dacron Roller Furling #1

Hi Wade Typically we use numbers to simplify naming sails for our crew when racing. #1 is normally 150, #2 130 and #3 100. In this case it is a sail with LP measurement 150. Sorry for the confusion Mike From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Wade Glew via CnC-Li

Re: Stus-List Battery CCA Rating for a "Cold" Diesel Engine

I use a U1 battery to start my engine (30 AH "lawn tractor battery"), but it is pretty marginal at best when the engine is cold-soaked. When hot the engine starts literally in about 2 seconds. My starter draws 120 amps and the U1 is about 250 MCA. For a 35 HP diesel I would suggest not going sma

Re: Stus-List Parallel Batteries -- Double the Ah, but Double the CCA too??? (Edd Schillay)

I think I should add a comment for the benefit of the non-engineering types on the list: Yes, the ABILITY of the parallel batteries to deliver cranking amps does double. But the actual current flow will not. The current draw (cranking amps) is a function of the voltage of the battery and

Stus-List Parallel Batteries -- Double the Ah, but Double the CCA too??? (Edd Schillay)

My Atomic 4 starter draws 120 amps. That is 0.1 ohms resistance. My little U1 battery has – in theory – 250 MCA, so it should be able to crank the engine just fine at 32 degrees (MCA is at 32 degrees, CCA is at 0 degrees). In practice the start battery has gotten old enough so that if the engine

Re: Stus-List Dacron Roller Furling #1 - now sail %

Wade, A quick primer on sail measurements. A #1 sail varies from boat to boat. Typically it is a boat's largest headsail. When I purchased my 35-1, it had a 170% genoa (more on that below). That was the #1. After a race or two, I retired the 170 in favor of a 155% headsail. That became my new

Re: Stus-List Battery CCA Rating for a "Cold" Diesel Engine

Edd, Part of the information that the other listers haven't been commenting on is that you asked about CCA and glow plugs. You could probably plan on between 10 and 15 amps total for your glow plugs. Compared to the draw of the starter this is a relatively insignificant additional current draw.

Re: Stus-List Parallel Batteries -- Double the Ah, but Double the CCA too??? (Edd Schillay)

Rick, you should include in your calculations the internal resistance of the batteries and the fact that it would be half (if connected in parallel) (;-) Marek From: Rick Brass via CnC-List Sent: Tuesday, May 1, 2018 10:51 To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com ; 'Edd Schillay' Cc: Rick Brass ; 'Thomas Dela

Re: Stus-List Parallel Batteries -- Double the Ah, but Double the CCA too??? (Edd Schillay)

In the case being discussed the batteries are a power source for the starter, and not a load. The output voltage of the two batteries in parallel will be the same as the output of one battery. (Presuming, of course that the two batteries have the same state of charge. If one of two batteries in

Re: Stus-List Battery CCA Rating for a "Cold" Diesel Engine

Edd, Marek, Dennis, and Joe are correct. We're talking SMALL engines here, and the actual cranking amps required are modest. Joe's A4 starts on an old motorcycle/garden tractor battery with 100 amps or so of current. Dennis' 25HP Universal has a max 190 amps, but probably actually draws l

I wondered about that. However, the large vinyl hose with metal coil reinforcement seems more like a manual pump hose size. Perhaps the two manual pumps had separate hoses and thru hulls at some point? Wade On Tue, May 1, 2018, 05:41 Josh Muckley via CnC-List, wrote: > The PO probably had an ext

Re: Stus-List C&C 33 MK II Bilge pumps

Thanks for your thoughts Bruno. The pump is a large manual Whale like pump which is pretty oversize for a shower and not electric either. It pumps through a large diameter vinyl with metal reinforcement hose directly to the cockpit manual pump Wade On Tue, May 1, 2018, 05:55 Bruno Lachance via CnC

Re: Stus-List C&C 33 MK II Bilge pumps

One run of hose connecting two pumps in series? A separate hose for each bilge pump would be more usual and a better arrangement. For example, what happens if the bellows on one of the pumps cracks? Then you have no working bilge pumps. Plus it adds a restriction where you really might not w
