Re: Stus-List Choppy mooring tips

2012-09-24 Thread Russ & Melody

Hi James,

Another source for the "chonking" sound is up & down movement of the 
rudder. I get this on some reaches and downwind legs with a short 
steep swell. It took me awhile before I found the rudder stock moving 
up & down by about 3/8". My fix will be to adjusted the stop collar 
below the quadrant. I probably have some wear in the plastic washer 
that lives between the collar and the top of the rudder shaft log.


Cheers, Russ

All - wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and what they 
did or do to alleviate the stress to the rudder/quadrant etc.
We moor our C&C34 on the Hudson at pier 25 which typically has 3 ft 
swells rollin in caused by the ferry , cruise line and sightseeing 
traffic.  It is an ideal mooring as we live in downtown Manhattan 
but the boat she takes a pounding as you can imagine.


We have used a whole manor of techniques to avoid the 
"chonking"  from below, currently we use a bungy chord on the wheel 
to allow the rudder and qudrant to move and brake slowly.  It seems 
to work, wondering if there are unintended consequences in doing that.


Any hep advice very much appreciated.

I would be interested to know what the keel shoe has done for others - pro
and con for performance and stability.
When I bought mine I heard of this and wondered if it would be a good
investment. 3 seasons later I'm happy with the boat and feel no urgency to
add the shoe. BTW we're not in a light wind area. We get just about
everything for conditions on west side of Georgian Bay.

Many owners of the 34 model have added a 500 pound keel shoe because the
boat is on the tender side.  If you sail in predominantly light wind area
you will love the boat.  Check out the stability diagram and the sailing
calculator on Stu's site under technical info for more information and boat
comparisons.

Per the directive, we went boldly home.  We saw gusts to 25 kts on the beam and 
peed over the water at warp 8.5 (9.3 over the bottom).  It was one of the most 
njoyable sails I can remember. We covered the 52 miles home in under 8 hours!   
ut the best part was meeting all the dedicated C&Cers and especially getting to 
alk to Rob Ball.  If you missed this one, you missed a good one.  Three cheers

It was great to meet Rob Ball, especially at the reception, to ask him all

Hope everyone has a safe, fun, voyage home. And, I'll say it again, let's do

Hi Joe,

Why do you have SeaClear and OpenCPN on the same

not uninstalling SeaClear after I started using OpenCPN.)


I keep an old Dell with 'doze 98 in a locker as

I use the 600s. They are 300 MHz machines that 
run Windows 98 fine and XP a little slow.
They are stripped down – no extra software, no

I have one hard drive with 98 and SeaClear and 
another one with XP and SeaClear+OpenCPN. I 
believe I sold one to someone on this list and 
it sat in Canadian customs for weeks.

I know...it is huge!  I feel that a 9" would be great but, they only make the 7 
or a 12 for a great price...I'm afraid if I went for the 7" i might feel I want 
the 10...LOL problem is there 10" is an $1800 touch screen.  i don't really 
need a touch screen...hm again, there is no rush on my part as I really don't 
need it for this season...  that 7" might just be the ticket... I could 
continue to use the existing fish finder and leave the old GPSmap as a backup.

All,

Lady Di and I are now enjoying some quiet times in Block Island.  We too had a 
blast meeting fun folks and reveling in the our chosen marque.   

I appreciate all the kind words andwant to thank many folks for their ready 
and capable help; John Read, Robert Gallagher and Richard Walter.  

And, of course Rob.  I think he enjoyed "purging" with us all.

While our memories are fresh I would also like to put together a debrief as to 
what we did well and what we can improve, potential venues, special events, 
etc.  

This would be a blueprint going forward to make it easier for those who want to 
step up next time (there are those who want to jump in next time...right?...I 
hope...please?).

Feel free to email me your thoughts.  I will then compile them and distribute. 
Again.  Great times. Great company. Great memories.  And fabulous sailing.

Danny,
I don't have radar, but have researched the project for my boat.  Here's a few 
thoughts I have:
Boatshows offer free training to read the radar screen, and I would recommend 
you check out several brands before choosing.   Radar displays can be very 
confusing as the blip from a boat, a buoy, or clutter can appear the same.  
Integrating a GPS, chart, and radar would be the only way to go for me, so 
brand may be driven more by that capability. 

The cataloges show you can easily spend more on a display pod and mount than on 
the radar system, but if it isn't mounted in a convenient location, it is 
useless.   A friend mounted his radar on his mast, and keeps the display in a 
cockpit locker, I doubt it will work when needed.  Another boat has the display 
mounted on a cabin bulkhead, not too convenient.  

The stern pole mounted radars seem the better option for a few reasons.  
Shorter cable run.  Less weight aloft (this has a dramatic effect on smaller 
sailboats).  Easier to service.

Radar becomes an expensive upgrade that requires long consideration.  I 
wouldn't spend that kind of money on a boat upgrade unless I was keeping her 
for a long time.

Hi All,

I'm considering new electronics for next year. Specifically, the Garmin 740s 
radar bundle and the Raymarine e7d radar bundle. the prices are almost the same 
especially when you consider that the Raymarine is offering a $250 AmEx gift 
card as a rebate.

I probably would not buy now as it is so late in the season but the Raymarine 
seems to be a better option when the dollars are so close and the $250 rebate 
expires Sept. 30th.

Does anyone have any comments on either of these systems and do you think the 
rebate is a sign of something coming out soon as a replacement or a price drop 
for next year?

Defender has the e7d for $2422 which is $2172 after rebate and I see the Garmen 
for $2144 at Hodges Marine. I can price match this stuff at West Marine too.

According to Practical Sailor it seems when the dollars match the Raymarine is 
the better buy because of the bells and whisltes. I also like the added knobs 
plus touch control vs just touch control on the Garmin.

Also, I have a Garman Gpsmap 162 and garmin Fishfinder 240 that are working.  
The Gpsmap doesn't show any chart info.  Am I crazy for considering the 
upgrade?  I was watching the BoatUS guys chartplotter and thought, "now, that 
would be nice!"

Hello All.

My deck project has evolved enough so that I can contemplate re-installing
the stanchions and lifelines.  I want to use uncoated stainless wire, so the
obvious question is, do I need to worry about chafing on the stanchion
itself, as the wire would have the same hardness.  Are there soft
sacrificial inserts such as nylon, polyethelene, etc, or do I need to
manufacture something?

Also, 304 or 316 for the wire? 

Finally, terminal hardware?  Any suggestions? Would prefer to use something
swageless...

Thanks to all in advance...

Re: Stus-List Choppy mooring tips

2012-09-24 Thread Eric Frank
James,

We did exactly the same thing after our steering cables were broken in the 
storm/hurricane last October.  I had thought the brake on the pedestal would be 
sufficient to hold the rudder, but the violent pitching and rolling caused the 
rudder to hit the stop and ruin the (albeit old) cables.  I was advised to lash 
the wheel, leaving the brake off, but decided to use the bungy cord on the 
wheel spokes (as you describe) around the base of the pedestal to provide a 
little give to the system.  No really heavy weather since then, so I don't know 
how it will fare, but seems OK.

To take all the strain off the cables and chain, one could mount the emergency 
tiller (easy to do on the 35 II) and lash it in place, leaving the steering 
brake completely off.  But I have not tried that yet.  Would be interested to 
hear other suggestions.

"water knots" - I never knew that this is the name for them, but this is 
exactly what I always used on the webbing. When you Google it, the pictures 
show very short bitter ends - I would leave more. I used lops like that for at 
least three-four seasons for climbing without any issue (under load and 
without). And the webbing is always stronger (especially when bent) than a 
similar size line.

Make sure that you install an adequate cable. A previous owner of our Tartan 30 
had installed a 3200 series cable - OK for gas or choke, but not up to moving 
the reversing gear. If you can manage to fit a 6400 series cable (5/16 -24 
threaded ends) do so. Judging from the original mounting holes, that is what 
the Tartan started with. Be sure to get the proper brackets and clevis for both

Subject: Stus-List Lifelines and Stanchions

 

Hello All.

 

My deck project has evolved enough so that I can contemplate re-installing
the stanchions and lifelines.  I want to use uncoated stainless wire, so the
obvious question is, do I need to worry about chafing on the stanchion
itself, as the wire would have the same hardness.  Are there soft
sacrificial inserts such as nylon, polyethelene, etc, or do I need to
manufacture something?

 

Also, 304 or 316 for the wire? 

 

Finally, terminal hardware?  Any suggestions? Would prefer to use something
swageless...

 

Thanks to all in advance...

I completely agree with this statement.  My boat was VERY carelessly cared for 
and I'm really paying a premium for that neglect.  I've had to go through 
everything and it cost me lot of time and money and I never really got to any 
cosmetics.  One good sign of the care taken will show up in the bilge and the 
engine compartment.  If they are nasty and dirty and old wire laying around and 
the bilge pumps are all loose and flopping around, leave the boat where it is 
unless you want to sail in 2 years after you go through EVERYTHING...  these 
areas are generally easy to reach and maintain so, imagine what the hard to 
reach areas are like...  My $0.02 worth

Have only sailed my 34 for 3 seasons, I will leave most of the comments to
others but I do have some thoughts.
The boat has a reputation for being tender, a light air boat, harder to
handle downwind.
I would say that`s all somewhat true but exaggerated. The bigger factor is
how you select sails and how you handle the boat.
I don`t think an autohelm will do a good job on *any* boat in a strong
quartering sea and the 34 is no different.
The boat is manageable but helm it yourself in those conditions.
Last Sat we were out in 25-30 knots with 40 knot gusts, beam reach, 3 to 4
ft quartering sea, the boat did ok. Others were rounding up, we were not.

Sail selection - it may be a bit tender but shortening sail early is key.
The boat is certainly sailable in strong wind conditions.
I do wish I had a second reef point in my main, and cringles to tie up the
extra sail - must haves for the next mainsail.
I think it can outperform its PHRF of 144 in light air and perhaps need some
more time in heavy air, averaging out where it is.

The 3GM Yanmar is terrific for this boat - no vibration, etc. Prop walk to
port. Perhaps a few more hp than the boat needs.

Water leaks - windows as usual, some from the toerail (mine is a 1982 btw,
hull #442)

Hull integrity - well it sounds like every one is a bit different. 
For mine all hull and deck are original gelcoat - - no major repairs have
been done.
The boat has all new thru hulls - done by previous owner. Maybe they had
some problems with the originals. Weren't they gate valves?
The only soft place is the coachtop splash apron - I plan to remove and
repair it this winter.
I also keep my weight off the anchor locker - will remove it this winter as
well.
Some people complain about crazing and softness near their stanchion bases,
I have had no problem with mine. But previous owner did put on new ones
which hook over the toe rail, it probably helped take load off the deck.

Spars, standing rigging, sheaves, etc have all been really good. Don't know
about the Navtec hydraulic adjuster though but right now its working ok.
I think just as important as the usual surveyor inspection of hull and deck
integrity is "How well has the boat been maintained?" A. carefully or B.
carelessly.

Good luck!

My deck project has evolved enough so that I can contemplate re-installing the 
stanchions and lifelines.  I want to use uncoated stainless wire, so the 
obvious question is, do I need to worry about chafing on the stanchion itself, 
as the wire would have the same hardness.  Are there soft sacrificial inserts 
such as nylon, polyethelene, etc, or do I need to manufacture something?

Also, 304 or 316 for the wire?

If you want to tie loops or jack lines or whatever with webbing use a "water
knot".  

Just Google "water knot" and you will get diagrams and how to tie this
simple knot.  Sewed webbing is probably better, but I have used the water
knot for years and never had one fail.  Some of the sewed webbing (such as
tethers for safety harnesses) have overload indicators sewn in so you can
see when they have been overloaded and should be replaced.

Looks like it would do the trick but unfortunately, my Garmin wire has network

The cable clam appears to allow a connector thru and still be able to tighten

Stus-List Spectra loops

2012-09-24 Thread Marek Dziedzic
I don't know what kind of loads you have to deal with, but even the thinnest of 
them all is rated at 2700 kG, which usually means that it can withstand a few 
times more.

Climbing gear is designed to stretch to absorb the dynamic load (when you 
fall), but on a short loop like this, the stretch would be minimal. One thing 
to keep in mind when using webbing - the knots don't hold that well. There are 
a few knots that do work, but they are not in the usual sailor's arsenal.

Well, Steve Thomas wins the Golden Thunder Mug.

 

Electric I understand, Electronic is beyond my scope of comprehension.  How
(see below) you can ignore a NMEA ground on the VHF end and take the NMEA
IN ground, put a resistor on it, put it on the (NMEA IN) positive, (which to
me = a direct short!) and Viola, the satellite icon pops up in the corner of
the VHF, GPS Coordinates, time, the whole ball of wax!  NMEA 1.5 is now 2.0!


 

<<< 1. Connect NMEA+ from the plotter to NMEA in (blue cable) on the VHF.
2. Connect NMEA- from the plotter to the NMEA in on the VFH via an 8k Ohm
resistor ($1 part at the closest Electronic part store / Radio shack etc).
3. Isolate the NMEA ground (green cable) from the VHF and leave it
disconnected.
4. On the "NMEA out" menu option in the RL70, select RMC (you can de-select
the other options if you don't have another NMEA consumer.

That's it. Your GX2100 will now be able to read the
 GPS location from your plotter!

 

Once again, as everyone says, this list is the best.  If no one has the
answer, by gawry someone will go find it!

 

Thanks again to Steve, and of course everyone else who chimed it with their

The NMEA voltage bounces as high, I think, (bad memory) 6 or 7 V, and

Seems there is an electrical difference between 0183 1.xx and 0183 2.xx and
later versions. 

The 1.xx versions are single ended, signal and ground, while the 2.xx and
later have differential + and - signal wires and should have a separate
ground/shield.

 

Funny thing is that the GX2150 does not have differential inputs. 

 

Anyway here is what one guy did to interface an RL series plotter to a

Might be worth a try.

Hello Steve,

This tech was pretty sharp, he was not reading from the manual - it is a
2003, so I believe him when he says it is 1.5

There also is no mention at all of versions, let alone Baud rates, , he said
it was 4800, period. The only thing I can adjust in the setup is turning
sentences on and off, and the seatalk bridge.

I have tried connecting them, no response.  The sentences are coming in, the
voltage rolls up and down.  I think there must be something different in the
protocol between 1.5 and 2.  The Standard Horizon manual definitely says it
will only work  with ver. 2.0 and up. I have bridged NMEA to Seatalk as that
is how the Autopilot communicates, but I don't think this would be a
problem, that just introduces other info such as the compass and converts to
NMEA, I think.

A talk with a Standard Horizon Tech produced nothing, oddly enough he didn't
seem to know much about NEMA conversions.

Waiting to hear back from Brookhouse.

Re: Stus-List 1981 C&C 34

2012-09-24 Thread Della Barba, Joe
Outside of my own boat, I have more miles on a 34 than any other C&C.
Compared to a 35 MK I:
The boat is harder to handle downwind. The IOR broach tendency is more 
pronounced than the 35.
The original engine is a 2 cylinder Yanmar that - compared to a 4 cylinder A4 
at least - vibrates the whole boat including the mast. Those engines are 
getting pretty old too at this point. Worth having it checked out by a diesel 
mechanic.
I know of one that suffered rotten deck coring, but that certainly isn't unique 
to 34s or even C&Cs.
We had one take on a LOT of water on a rough Bermuda race. The 35 has big steel 
plates behind the nuts on the keel bolts and the 34 had washers (ouch!), The 
washers were digging into the hull and letting a lot of water get in. Backing 
plates were added to that boat in Bermuda. Speaking of which, any 35 owners 
with the original iron/steel plates need to switch them for stainless ASAP. 
Mine were dissolving by the late 80s!

Stus-List clutch and winch relationship

2012-09-24 Thread Chuck S
Those teak clutch pads may not be necessary, depending on winch drum height. 

Looking at Barient catalog on Stu's website, manufacturers prefer the line 
coming from a lower angle of about 3 to 8 degrees. 
Roger Marshall suggests blocks, or fairleads, or clutches, be kept 18" away 
from a winch to allow hockles to work themselves free during a release? 
Many boat builders install them too close together. (I once helped the owner of 
a C&C 121 raise his jib and the friction was so great because the clutch and 
winch were 6 inches apart, we had to use the winch the whole way.) Properly 
led, I can raise my sails (only slightly smaller dimensions) by hand from the 
cockpit, and without a winch. We only use a winch to get the final tension . 

Spinlock clutch directions from their online catalog: 
• Keep the rope deflection angle as small as possible. In a bank of clutches, 
try to ensure that the most heavily loaded lines have the least deflection. 
• The angle of the line from the clutch up to the winch drum, should not exceed 
10º. You can reduce this angle by increasing clutch to winch distance or 
raising the clutch using a wood or delrin pad.

Re: Stus-List Rope clutches

The teak base is too short for any of the newer clutches, so keeping it
won't work.  It's approximately 2 1/2 inches high, so I could layer some
Starboard.  I'll have to look at the geometry more closely when I am
aboard.  So much for a simple swap-out!

Stus-List Choppy mooring tips

2012-09-24 Thread James Montague
All - wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and what they did or
do to alleviate the stress to the rudder/quadrant etc.
We moor our C&C34 on the Hudson at pier 25 which typically has 3 ft swells
rollin in caused by the ferry , cruise line and sightseeing traffic.  It is
an ideal mooring as we live in downtown Manhattan but the boat she takes a
pounding as you can imagine.

We have used a whole manor of techniques to avoid the "chonking"  from
below, currently we use a bungy chord on the wheel to allow the rudder and
qudrant to move and brake slowly.  It seems to work, wondering if there are
unintended consequences in doing that.

Any hep advice very much appreciated.

Re: Stus-List Rope clutches

2012-09-24 Thread Morgenstern, Keith E CIV SEA 08 NR

I'd leave it or replace it with starboard.

Almost all these clutches have something spring-loaded to push the line
down into a gripper (or likely the top half of the gripper is spring
loaded to push it down into the lower half of the gripper.)

When you mount the clutch so that the line pays more-or-less
horizontally off the clutch to the winch, the tension on the line won't
oppose the springs.
When you mount the clutch lower...the tension on the line tends to keep
the top half of the gripper from pushing down on to the lower half...so
it slips for a bit until the springs can push the line low enough to
grip it.

YMMV.

Thus no water can get in via the cable/gasket path nor rubber seal/washer of

Since it attachesd to the deck with fasteners and also uses fasteners to 
compress the rubber bushing, one should be able to drill the holes in the deck, 
dry fit it, then pull it up, cut a slot in both pieces and the rubber bushing, 
slide the cable through the slots in all and fasten it to the deck and compress 
it.

They are excellent, use them all the time, but they have to be installed
over the hole and then run the wires. I understood the challenge to be how
to seal the holes with the wires already run. Hence the goop suggestion.

Hey Dwight, all systems are a go. Not exactly sure what the issue was to be 
honest, things just seemed to cure them self later the next day. I wish the 
same thing would happen to my Motorcycle! I am going to assume at this point 
that it was a stuck thermostat like a few posters had mentioned. I was going to

Hi Greg
 
Back in August when you were in Mahone Bay you reported a problem with getting 
domestic hot water on your boat.
 
I don’t recall the outcome or how you remedied the problem if you did but;  
 
Now I am having similar issues with my boat where the domestic hot water is 
supposed to get heated by the coolant from my Universal M4-30 diesel engine.
 
I am wondering what you found out and also how your hot water tank is plumbed 
to get engine coolant flowing through it.  My hot water tank is slightly higher 
than the engine and today when I disconnected the coolant lines from the engine 
to it no coolant exited either line with the engine running hard in reverse at 
2000rpm on the mooring, but the engine did not overheat so I think the supply 
and discharge lines from the engines salt water heat exchanger have coolant 
flowing through them.  The hot water tank on my boat seems to be plumbed in 
parallel with the heat exchanger and therefore seems like it would act as a 
heat exchanger until the water got hot.  I am wondering about a possible 
airlock and also considering this may have something to do with having the tank 
installed above the engine. Can you offer any help?
 
Thanks

  Sounds like you have the first generation clutches which were small and hard 
on line.  If you can afford it, you should replace all of the clutches with 
newer Spinlocks or Lewmars.  They are so much better, easier to use, and easier 
on the line.

Re: Stus-List Holes in deck

I like it. You'd have to do two to keep the boat balanced.

Alternatively, one could get two or three caulk gun sized tubes of 5200, and do 
like Richard Dreyfuss in 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' -- making a six 
or eight inch tall mound of caulk on the cabin top.  That should last six 
months to a year, and can always be blamed on the previous owner.

Re: Stus-List Rope clutches

2012-09-24 Thread Chuck S
Sounds like you have the first generation clutches which were small and hard on 
line. If you can afford it, you should replace all of the clutches with newer 
Spinlocks or Lewmars. They are so much better, easier to use, and easier on the 
line.

At the strong recommendation of our sail maker the schaefers were replaced with 
lewmars 10 years ago - no regrets and no additional wear on the lines. 4 banks 
of 3 ...

Re: Stus-List Spectra loops

2012-09-24 Thread Chuck S
I would use mountain climbing gear if the load ratings were right. Very good 
stuff made to support lives. 
The loops referenced seem to be made with nylon which is inherently stretchy . 
Not sure if that is best for a boat?
