Stus-List 37 stemhead casting

2015-03-16 Thread Pete Shelquist via CnC-List
I'm looking for a stemhead casting, sometimes called a bowplate, for a early
80s vintage 37.   Please forward salvage yards or other sources you may be
aware of.

 

Thanks,

Pete

Re: Stus-List Email List or Forum

Sounds like a couple big “ifs” out there, but assuming the cost and maintenance 
headache is less for Stu, I’ll vote forum

Subject: Stus-List Email List or Forum

 

Recently, some of our subscribers have indicated that they would like to have a 
“Forum” similar to “cruisersforum” or “sailnet” instead of an email list (like 
this one).

 

PROS:

1. Eliminate the costs related to the email list

2. Follow a thread easier without having to read multiple emails.

3. Easier to find past, archived messages and threads.

4. Possible addition of public and private photo albums.

5. Easily moderated by more than one person.  Threads can be deleted and 
undesirable subscribers blocked.

6. No more 20-30 emails a day.  Visit the site at your convenience and view the 
latest topics since your last visit.

 

CONS:

1. Forum software runs from free to around $250 depending on additional 
enhancements.

2. Might (???) require additional disk space and bandwidth on hosting site. 
()

3. Installation – I’ve done it before and it does take some time.  And a bit 
more time involved to get it tweeked to perfection.

 

Bottom line – would you rather have a FORUM or continue using this list?  It 
does not matter to me.

 

Stu

Hi, Brad.  In a previous life, I was a certified Raymarine dealer/installer
and ABYC/NMEA-certified in marine electrical and electronics, so maybe I can
help out.

 

First off, yes, it was Autohelm, then Raytheon, then Raymarine; and
Raymarine went through several ownership iterations since, now being owned
by FLIR.

 

Because you've got the Autohelm autopilot, you won't be able to control the
pilot from the a95 (I'm assuming you meant little "a", not big "A", as
that's a different and older Raymarine series of MFDs); nor will you be able
to integrate it into the instruments.  They will need to be interface via
SeaTalkNG.

 

If you had a newer Raymarine wheelpilot like the ST4000, ST4000+ or newer,
you could interface it with the MFD and the instruments; but you would need
the SeaTalkNG to SeaTalk 1 converter kit to get everything to talk.

 

Email me off the list if I can help you further.

Lots of great info, thanks to all for their input.

In reading the manuals many things become more clear.

Garmin is a little more forthright in acknowledging that you need to pony up 
another 200 for a wifi module, and 300 for radio, 

Had to dig a little deeper in the Zeus to find that out. I am puzzled why they 
don’t build wifi in, it is in my dashcam and that is tiny and cheap.

It looks to me that it IS built into the e7 Raymarine, can anyone clarify that?

On the pictures of the back of the Zeus 8 it has Simrad molded into the case, 
so I guess that is what it really is.

The reason I had not considered the Raymarine is that after going from a 
Garmin, which I consider very intuitive, the Ray was confounding, and poorly 
thought out, at least the RL-80.

They seem to be making much nicer stuff now, especially since Jeppeson  
acquired them.

JF, do you know if my Raymarine Autopilot will work seamlessly with the Zeus?  
It is 0183, the MKII around 10 years old.

And thanks to Fred for the Garmin offer.

The laylines are not necessarily set at any particular angle.. That's the

the trigonometry for the layline angle that gives the optimal tack / jibe point

Bill - 
I'm thinking about going down that same path and interested in what you
learn about B&G and Garmin chartplotters.  Both have wireless capability
with ipad control, which is very attractive.  It'd be ideal to play with
each for a while.  My only experience with B&G is adding a Triton Display on
my Garmin network (replaced 1 of 3 Garmin GMIs).   Seamless integration,
very good functionality and easy to use once you learn the quirks.  

I also have a Raymarine autopilot w/display on the network.  Marginal at
best.  

Good luck and stay in touch on this.

that look like the overlays on the latest Americas cup.  Particularly the
Zeus Touch T8, now on sale for $807 I still have an RC-80 Raymarine which
works fine, but all these new features, plus many, many more make my knees
go weak.

Any Comments?

Another observation, I notice that Defender has nothing from Garmin anymore.
I wonder if they pulled their plug for not playing by the rules and selling
below their "suggested" prices. ?

In the mid 1970's TRUE NORTH came south to Lake Pontchartrain. She was a custom 
C&C 37 designed and built to defend the Canada's Cup. Flush deck with "ant 
hills," sockets moulded into the deck to accept winch handles. The ant hills 
were cross linked so that the leeward winch could be ground from the windward 
side. She was brought to the lake by Gene Walet, a former Olympic sailor and 
then the local C&C dealer to provide competition to Corrie, C&C 39 hull # 2 or 
3 and Touché. Gene added rather crude extensions to the aft curvature of the 
hull extending past the reverse transom for some undiscernabe rating or 
performance benefit. A recent Google search pulled up a report of TN having 
done well in the Trans Superior race a few years ago. It would be nice to hear 
about her current status. Gene replaced TN with White Pony, one of the early 
C&C 38's, which was never competitive with the C&C 39.

Somehow I knew this was an easy one for all you listers. Thanks so much. My 
next stop is IOR ton rating. Had no clue…

 

I wonder now how many and for how long C&C made these custom class-racers.

Burt,

 

James’ answer leading you to search using “IOR ton rating is good advice.  In 
short, the term “ton” was based on an IOR rating band that allowed IOR boats to 
race “one design”.  IIRC the popular “ton” classes were: ¼. ½, ¾, 1, and 2. 
Sailing Anarchy has had several recent topics that cover IOR and “Ton” racing 
well.

 

Calypso would have rated as a 2 tonner. A J-24 sized boat would be close to a ¼ 
tonner.  Today there is a resurgence of ton class racing with ¼ and ½ ton 
regattas being well attended.  Boats that had been neglected for years are 
being resurrected, modernized and raced hard.

 

Back in the heyday of IOR racing I had the opportunities to race extensively on 
¾, 1, and 2 ton class boats.  The racing was tight and fun.  We used bloopers.  
In the PNW town of Bellingham a regatta called PITCH (Pacific International Ton 
Championship) was started in the early 80’s.  The racing was as intense as the 
partying. Protest meeting often went past dinner time.

Re: Stus-List thread reply and rod rigging

2014-10-12 Thread Pete Shelquist via CnC-List
Dave - 

In addition to the comments on rod rigging, and as a point of reference for
you on costs, I had an old Stearns headstay/furler and replaced it this fall
with a Harken.  This required that I add a new forestay.  For multiple
reasons I went with rod vs wire.  Total cost for just the forestay, which
included toggles for new furler, was about $1300.   If you make this
purchase and are looking for budget numbers, re-heading everything for
around $2k is good value with appropriate safety/reliability that others
have mentioned.

 

Hope that helps.

Subject: Stus-List thread reply and rod rigging

 

Hi, can someone tell me how to reply to a thread?  Sorry, I can't figure it
out.  So I started a new one.

 

 

Next I looked at a 1984 CNC 35 M3 yesterday.  Concerned about the rod
rigging.  This boat is run down so I don't expect a record of rigging
inspection or service.

 

A rigger friend recommended full replacement.

 

Is this correct?  And what are alternatives?  What is a rod replacement cost
approx?  And is a wire replacement smart/ advisable/ cost effective or too
heavy?  Technology has moved ahead in 30 years.

 

I love the boat layout etc.  But suspect rigging will kill my offshore
pleasure!

 

Many thanks,

 

David.

Ditto on the sailtec.  Good Wisconsin company.

 

7 yrs and no issues for me.   Of course I take it off every fall and store
inside for the winter.

 

Good idea of Harken pumping both ways.if you're into that.

The 33 is not split backstay, maybe some late models have them but not mine.

 
I can not beleive there is not a better reliable system on the market.
anybody with direct experience of the Wichard mechanical wiht ratchet ? i
don't even know if the handle pumps up and down or rotates with some sort of
relief system hence the ratchet ??? same question about power, but the
numbers indicate it would be more than appropriate for my boat.
 
I'm worried to dump more money into hydrolic and be a the same point in a
year or two. Worse case scenario i lost the rig, i had to jury something
this summer offshore in 25 knots plus when the thing blew on my transom. not
fun at all. i bought a spare turnbucle after that one and went on with my
vacations.

My 2 cents:

I don't think the 33 is a split backstay.  The cost to split it and install
new chain plates would probably exceed the cost of a hydraulic unit. 

With a masthead rig I would want more power than you can get with a manual
adjuster.

If you race your boat you will find the mechanical back stay adjuster to be

I have a stainless steel Barient back stay adjuster (5/8" pins and uses a
winch handle to adjust) that came with my boat back in 1975 to be used in
case the original Meriman hydraulic adjusters failed. It did indeed fail and
we rigged the Barient and it took all that one could do to crank in enough
tension just to straighten the mast

Hi all,
 
I sent my navtec backstay for a rebuild at Southshore and it seems the over
25 years thing is dammaged (scratch on pump cylinder, not fixable, it still
leaks). I'm looking at options and the two on the list are: replace it by
the exact same thing (Navtec) or screw hydrolic and go with the mechanical
option. Would be a Wichard product, the one with a ratchet or handle with no
ratchet, not the wheel.
 
any opinions on that decision would be appreciated regarding reliability and
performance (i like to play with that toy!) would a mechanical be too slow
to adjust?

I second Josh's comments about Mariners Learning System - but I had the hard 
copy books (as well as online / DVD's) and found myself using them on long 
flights, making notes etc.  I passed the test easily after taking the course - 
I added a couple of apps to my phone for light / signal flash cards that came 
in handy.  I would recommend Mariners Learning System - if you are OK learning 
from materials / on your own.  Just to note, this was not my first experience 
with certification, having done the RYA tests when I lived in England.

 

Getting the correct medical and drug testing done is not as simple as it sounds.

Re: Stus-List Engine Sound Insulation

2014-08-28 Thread Pete Shelquist via CnC-List
Dave - 

I'll chime in.I did that job about 3 years ago and am glad I did.Note
that it's no silver bullet.   Martin's comment that "no one asks if the
diesel is running" is still accurate, but it's a lot better.   As I get
older the engine doesn't sound as bad as it used to, so I have that going
for me J  

 

It's really not that hard of a project and there's a lot less "dirt" in the
area in addition to the reduction in noise pollution.  

 

I figure it's like refrigeration.   You can live without it, but it's nice
to have.

 

Hope that helps.

Stus-List tight reaching

2014-07-27 Thread Pete Shelquist via CnC-List
I recently had a mid-distance race in which a majority of the race was tight
reaching in flat water, 10-15 breeze.   We had our heavy #1 up.  A number of
boats (C&C39, C&C38, Sabre 36, Tarten Ten) worked up on us pretty well in
those conditions.   I obviously need to trim the sails differently and am
looking for suggestions.

 

We mostly eased the sheet and moved the car forward, but we did try barber
hauling.  We did not try bringing the clew right out to the toe rail.  

 

Any thoughts or suggestions is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

draws 4'-11" on a longer keel.  Mine points like a witch, too.   :^)

Nate – check with the guys at Barker’s.  They stock some stuff, or may have

I need a new short 2QM15 diesel fuel line (part 17 on their diagram attached) 
with a banjo fitting on one end (apparently ripped the hose while pulling the 
engine last year). These have a press-fit brass female connection. My regional 
Yanmar supplier (Toad, formerly Torresen) has these backordered...

 

Anyone have ideas or experience?

 

Thanks

Stus-List babystay tie rods

2014-06-13 Thread Pete Shelquist via CnC-List
On my 37, the babystay has two tie rods going from the deck to the hull.   On 
this boat these run straight down on either side of the door to the head.

 

There are turnbuckles at the base of the rod by the hull to adjust the tension. 
 In my case, one is significantly looser than the other.   

 

Does anyone on the list have experience adjusting these?  Or how to monitor if 
they are too tight or too loose?

 

Thanks,

Re: Stus-List Repositioning Mast

2014-06-04 Thread Pete Shelquist via CnC-List
Steve - I haven’t done this on a boat as big as yours, but in the past we have 
taken a line from the butt of the mast forward to a snatch block and then back 
to a winch and grind it forward.  Not really as hard as it sounds.   Obviously 
get the rig loose first, etc.Hope that helps.

Subject: Stus-List Repositioning Mast

 

Hi All,

 

I made a stupid newbie mistake when we stepped the mast. In my defence it was a 
busy, windy, choppy day and we had to hire a crane to come to the club to step 
everyone's mast .. and I helped everyone, so when it came time to do my boat I 
was kind of on autopilot. We stepped 29 masts that day.

 

So I failed to remember that there are wedges fore and aft at the mast base 
that keep the mast centered in the step. My girlfriend says to me the other day 
while pointing at a pair of wedges in the boat .. did you forget to put the 
wedges in the partner? Um, no I did not. Then I realized my mistake and took a 
look at the mast base ... the mast is seated all the way aft. I guess this 
would cause some forward rake? I'm all ears in regards to how this might affect 
the rig, sail shape, etc? 

 

In any case, I'de like to center the thing and put the wedges where they are 
supposed to go. I know I can loosen the tension on the rig and I've used 
halyards in place of the forestay and shrouds on previous occasions to fix this 
or that but even with the rig tension way down is the weight of the mast itself 
going to prevent me from sliding it forward about 1.5 inches? What would be the 
correct order to loosen the rig? Backstay, lowers, uppers? I'de rather not futz 
with the forestay if I can help it but I did just disconnect it about a week 
ago to fix a kink in the furler so I'm not shy to do it again.

 

Any help/recommendations are much appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Steve

Stus-List 2012 Annapolis Bermuda Race C&C 37

All,

 

One week to the gun!  I want to thank all of you in advance for your support, 
advice, patience, equipment and even sails that have made it possible for me to 
enter the race.  

 

There will be fellow C&C ers on the boat both ways!

 

Our class includes Steve Sharkey's C&C 37 as well as a mini transat 21 footer 
and a 100 foot schooner. Should make the starting line interesting.  You can 
track us at www.bermudaoceanrace.com.  They are using Spots, not Yellowbrick.  

 

Finally, as a follow up to an earlier post, I ran out of time to make a fancy 
enclosure for the frig compressor.  Some corrugated plastic board from Home 
Depot and duct tape will suffice for now.  If nothing else, it will serve as a 
template for a more permanent solution.

Stus-List PHRF ratings

2014-05-07 Thread Pete Shelquist via CnC-List
I’m going to insert a comment here on keeping perspective with PHRF ratings.  I 
recently had a conversation with an individual affiliated with our local 
ratings and he commented that 3 secs equates to approximately 1 boat length for 
every mile raced.  So as nice as it is to get 3 or 6 secs, IMHO it’s really not 
a big deal.  I can blow a tack and lose a boat length, multiply that by how 
many tacks are made in a mile and, well, it points out I should spend time on 
boat handling and less worrying about ratings.  

 

Obviously know the rules and use what’s made available to you, but keep in mind 
where real gains are made.

 

Hope that helps.

Gary,

You are right about the above deck furler.  I'm in the Gulf Yachting 
Association (gya.org) Here's the rule:

"The PHRF committee may allow +6 seconds per mile in rating for a roller 
furling headsail and +12 seconds for an optional IN-MAST roller furling 
mainsail. Boats must have a SA/DSPL less than 20.01 and an inboard or saildrive 
(non-retractable) engine to be eligible for credit(s). The attached form must 
be submitted to receive this credit.

1. Uses a working roller furling headsail attached to an above deck mounted 
roller furling system. Roller furling headsails must be tacked above the drum 
and may be interchangeable with other working roller furling headsails while 
racing. Possible +6 seconds!

2. Uses an optional working Roller Furling in-mast mainsail, which may have no 
more than 5 vertical battens and that the roach of the sail does not extend 
past the backstay (or a line from the top of the mast to the deck edge of the 
transom if a back stay is not standard on the boat) and is furled vertically by 
rolling rather than flaking. Possible +12 seconds!

3. For the Roller Furling Headsail credit the boat must have a sail 
area/displacement of less than 20.01. This value (SA/DSPL) is based on the 
following formula: SA/DSPL = SA / (DSPL/64)^2/3.

Sail area and displacement values will be based on the standard dimensions 
published for the boat class by US Sailing (http://offshore.ussailing.org/phrf) 
“Critical dimensions” using 100% of the foretriangle and 100% mainsail and 
mizzen sail area.

4. Each boat has to apply for this credit individually, and the committee 
reserves the right to refuse the credit(s) to boats that they deem to be more 
racing than cruising. (Refer to GYA-PHRF.com for a copy of the form)

5. Will notify the PHRF Committee of any changes made to the above items."

Touche's SA/DSPL is 20.0

I don't know about your PHRF area, but Chesapeake requires that the furler drum 
is above deck AND you have the UV patch (heavy cloth) on both the foot and

Calypso's headsails were also cut for a furler with the higher foot, now about 
18" off the deck.

We still get a significant "speed bubble" in the main at the mid to upper wind 
range for the light and heavy #1s.  The bubble shows up 6' to 25' (off the 
deck) on the mainsail.

Over the last 10 years of club racing Calypso with roller furling headsails we 
see a significant decrease in performance at the low end of the wind range, 
especially in acceleration.  Side by side with another C&C 43 that had newer, 
non-furling headsails Calypso was left in the dust as the wind built from calm 
to 5 knots.  Once the TWS was above 7 knots the speed difference was much less 
but the newer sails still pointed higher.

After reading about your +6 per mile for the roller furler I need to take a 
close look at the PHRF-NW book and re-file Calypso's data.  We are still using 
the old IMS/IOR type measurements.

Bob -

Check with your local phrf organization or sail maker.  This is the formula I 
was given for spin sail area in sqft.  See if it makes sense for you.

 


PHRF Rule

((SLU+SLE) x (4*SMG + SF))/12

 

Slu = spin luff

Sle = spin leach

Smg = spin mid-girth

Sf = spin foot

My symmetrical chute was made specifically for racing by Al Declercq in Metro 
Detroit so it would be the maximum legal size.  My sail certificate is online 
below with the dimensions.  Perhaps someone else knows the formula to calculate 
square footage?

 

http://desiresailing.org/Misc/SailCertificateSymChute1998CnC32.pdf

 

There is no C&C 32-II.  The  C&C 32 (made 1979 to 1984) is actually 31.5 LOA.  
The C&C99 is 32.5 feet and came out around 2000.  The only similarity is that 
they are within .5 feet of 32 feet.
