been due to my less than perfect application techniques. On the 37’ the aluminum toe-rail is bedded with butyl. Hope that helps. Regards, Dave Godwin 1982 C 37 - Ronin Reedville - Chesapeake Bay Ronin’s Overdue Refit <http://roninrebuild.blogspot.com/> > On Nov 5, 2019, at 7:52 AM, Jame

Re: Stus-List 2020 Rendezvous (s)

Baltimore sounds good. My wife is a Baltimoron so we’re familiar with the venue. Why, I’d even attend. If my boat was in the water. Which at my rate of rebuild progress it might just, sort of, maybe, hopefully, be ready. ;-) Nonetheless, my dock is being rebuilt right at the moment and will

Re: Stus-List Straightening Stanchions...

David, As regards Chuck’s reference to salt-fused, I can attest to the problems I ran across. All of my stanchions were virtually welded to the cast aluminum bases. I tried solvents and heat from a cutting torch to no avail. Broke one base in the process. I resorted to hack-sawing the tubes

Re: Stus-List painting strategy for deck Interlux vs Pettit

epeat Step 4. for areas that might be a bit thin. You’ll be able to tell easily. 7. Repeat Step 5. That’s it. When done it will appear even, not look or feel aggressive and it will be quite non-kiddy… Regards, Dave Godwin 1982 C 37 - Ronin Reedville - Chesapeake Bay Ronin’s Overdue Refit

but I believe I heard “around 5 hours on the motor” and “maybe $2,000.00”. I’m going to go look at his stuff tomorrow morning. If someone was interested, I’ll explore that motor in more detail. Regards, Dave Godwin 1982 C 37 - Ronin Reedville - Chesapeake Bay Ronin’s Overdue Refit <h

Stus-List Shawn's delimma

ever dwell on the sale price of “Ronin”. When she’s done and back in the water we will sail her as much as possible and then sell her for whatever someone will pony up. It’s not factor in our boat owning equation. We’ve sailed her for years and enjoyed every minute of it. Regards, Dave Godwin

Re: Stus-List C as offshore boat?

, construction and comfort. So to close out, my advice would be to buy as large and as well-maintained a boat that you feel you will be able to afford over time. I would also advise against doing what I do. I just enjoy fixing up old things. I’ve never been called smart. :-) Regards, Dave Godwin

Re: Stus-List C as offshore boat?

with (hopefully) a good weather window. IMO, C’s are quite strong but have their limits if extended offshore passage making is the desire. Of course, the French regularly pile entire families on Beneteaus and cross oceans just fine. ;-) Regards, Dave Godwin 1982 C 37 - Ronin Reedville - Chesapeake Bay

good condition on the remaining bolts. I will bolt the keel back on and not worry about it. Why, I might even get around to doing that this year…. ;-) Link <http://roninrebuild.blogspot.com/2015/01/in-shed-at-last.html> to pictures. Regards, Dave Godwin 1982 C 37 - Ronin Reedville - Che

Re: Stus-List Keel bolts comment/question

This was my experience when removing my keel. We had to “break it loose” when lifting the hull. Question for you Rob, my keel joint had epoxy for the keel stub/keel joint which I assumed was done by a PO when the bottom was peeled and epoxy coated. Was it actually done at the plant? Regards,
