Re: Stus-List Yanmar 3gm Ventilation

2800 RPM is running the engine pretty hard but if you are underpripped, you might have to run it this hard. I have a new Yanmar which I criuse at just below 2400 (6.5 knots). Bob Bob Boyer S/V Rainy Days (1983 C&C Landfall 38 - Hull #230) Blog: dainyrays.blogspot.com Email: dainyr...@icloud.co

Re: Stus-List Yanmar 3gm Ventilation

The RPM numbers are by engine model number.  For example my 3JH2E is 3400 continuous, not 3200.  That said 85% of 3,200 is 2720. Just my $.02 worth,  Bruce Whitmore (847) 404-5092 (mobile) bwhitm...@sbcglobal.net ___ Thanks everyone for suppo

Re: Stus-List Yanmar 3gm Ventilation

Josh, Are the rpm numbers for a specific engine or for general reference? I have a 3HMF, 3-cylinder, normally aspirated, diesel, engine, rated to produce 27 hp at 3200 RPM, so I run at 2300-2400 rpmsam I doing this wrong? Thanks Richard s/v Bushmark4: 1985 C&C 37 CB; Ohio River, Mi

Re: Stus-List Yanmar 3gm Ventilation

My tachometer turned out to be within 50 RPMs, so not all the tachs are off.  I used Josh's link from a few months ago in ordering a digital tach just to make sure.  I recommend checking just to be sure.   Bruce Whitmore (847) 404-5092 (mobile) bwhitm...@sbcglobal.net

Re: Stus-List Yanmar 3gm Ventilation

I have a 3JH2E, so it is a somewhat different engine.  Essentially, I have read that operating at 85% of WOT will generally give you the best fuel/hp ratio, and at our maximum continues rated output speed being 3400 x .85 = 2,890.  In reality, I tend to use 2,800, somewhat less yet if I am going

Re: Stus-List Yanmar 3gm Ventilation

Engine at 180°F doesn't sound bad. I believe the steam you see is just the effect of cooler surrounding air and water. The measure of adequate cooling which I've heard is, being able to place your hand on the exhaust elbow. It might be warm... Not hot. Max continuous = 3200rpm Max 1 hour = 3400

OK…engine seems to run warm/hot…temp is not above 180 but I’m not running at 3,000 RPM, usually 2800. …couple of questions…. Lot’s of steam out the exhaust which I believe is more do to the balance of coolant water in either muffler or the mixture elbow. I sometimes remove the engine access p

Doug — as far as I know, the ultrasonic speed sensors need to be through-hull, as they work by detecting particles in the water and using Doppler shift to gauge the speed. So they wouldn’t work in-hull. — Fred Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C Landfall 38) -- Bayfield, WI > On

If it works keep it. We use the gps and the paddle wheel to sort out currents. Nice to know if we are taking advantage or going against it.___ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions. Each and every one is greatly appreciated.

Re: Stus-List padwheel analogue thru hull device

Hi Dan I believe most current model speed instruments measure boat speed thru the water using paddle wheels. I know Raymarine does. The Raymarine i50/i60 tri pack that we purchased in 2014 uses a paddlewheel transducer for speed. As others have said Boat Speed is very important for sail trim.

I went with a plastic tank and the original straps (shortened a bit). There are small 1x1 'fences' around the tank on the platform and I shielded the tank from the straps with some rubber strips. Gary From: CnC-List On Behalf Of Rick Brass via CnC-List Sent: Friday, September 14, 2018 1:12 PM

I have an Airmar ultrasonic speed sensor. It accurately gives speed readings through water to 0.1 knots. GPS gives speed over ground and isn't as responsive as sensor. Ron Ricci Patriot On Fri, Sep 14, 2018, 1:09 PM James Bibb via CnC-List wrote: > Good question. > > I believe that it measures

The tank in my 38 had similar pitting and a small leak. It was sitting on a plywood platform aft of the engine and transmission (and pretty much over the stuffing box). When I replaced the tank, I put (5) 4"x4"x1/4" pads made from neoprene seal bought at my local Lowes. The tank is held in pl

Re: Stus-List padwheel analogue thru hull device

Good question. I believe that it measures speed of the boat instead of speed over ground which is helpful when you are trying to judge movement and sail trim versus how fast the tide could be moving the boat. I know there are other sensors now that measure without the paddle. > On Sep 14

Hi all, I'm doing an overhaul of my electronics, and I have a general question for those of you who have been through this before - Are the classic Padwheel Speed Measuring instruments still worth keeping or have they gone the way of the Steam Engine? I'm pretty sure most Depth Transducer readers
