Hello again,
are there any clever ways to protect the transom from the boarding
ladder feet? The cane tips I'm currenty using don't really last out in
the elements. And with a new paint job I'm looking for something better
to use.
Does anyone have any suggestions.
Thanks,

John,
I was a similar situation looking for a replacement Landfall 38 swim ladder. I
kindly received pictures and measurements from some list LF38 owners, and
received a few quotes for fabrication. When I called White Water Marine for a
quote, they told me that they had the original specs for
I use the rubber cane (or chair) tips as well, but before installing them, I
insert a fender washer of the same size.
The fender washer protects the rudder from the sharp edges on the feet of
the ladder. The rubber tips seem to last longer with the fender washer
protection.
You might try that
I use a quarter.

John,
I just looked over the invoice and some emails to and from White Water Marine.
I first called them and then followed up with an email of the measurements I
had. See the specs below.I ordered just plain tube steps, as original,

I don't know what type of setup you have regarding the house and starting
battery. Is it a switch, acr, or echo-charge? Depending on the answer,
yes a failed start battery could affect the entire system.

I need to replace the fresh water pump between the holding tank and the faucets
on my C&C 33 MK II
I think I need a 2' to 2.5' lift.
Is there any benefit to trying to place the pump closer to the holding tank
level?
There are a lot of pumps out there from about $30 to $150.

Danny,
You are going to need to trace wires. The regulator does not see different
banks. The alternator output could go to one or both. If it goes to one,
there needs to be a device (ACR etc) or switch to charge the other. If you
check the voltage at each bank befroe and just after you start t
Ok I ordered some $30 crutch tips with a steel disc that is chemically

Thanks Joel,
I'll check the voltages at the house bank next time I'm at the boat. We
already know we see a jump in volts at the start battery. So If I see
no jump on the house bank, I have to chase down the wiring.

The regulator does not prioritise one battery (bank) of the other. If you have
an ACR or an EchoCharger, the house should be priorities and the start battery
should be charged once the house is full.

Ugh! Sorry for your misfortune. I believe there are sailors who have run

Very sad story to read. I ran aground last year in a very familiar harbor race
as I was concentrating on rounding the mark which drifted too close to shore.
I was very lucky as I ran up an over a sand-bar and was able to get off quickly
on a lee-shore with the time running out quickly.

I would suggest that you find a pump that produces the highest pressure and
a flow of no less than about 3 gpm. Most of the pumps will have a lift of
10 feet so there is little difference there. Modern faucets work best with
50 to 60 psi. I replaced the galley faucet with one from the kitchen

I have also used quarters and/or fender washers. The value is nearly the
same. Once installed I also wrapped the boots in rescue tape. As the

seems to be more resilient to the sun and weather so it helps keep the

Rethink the solution. Shaft your paradigm.

some of the newer Shurflo pumps have an arrangement that they can modulate the
flow of water (depending on the use), so they won’t cycle that much, almost
eliminating any need for an accumulator.

Hi David,
Sorry about the grounding.
Boats can be fixed. Be thankful you and crew are OK.
I have had many groundings that were no big deal and one horrible grounding
that cost me $16K, so I know your pain very well. I hope your insurance comes
through for you. Keep us posted on developments.
