Re: Stus-List Anchor Size

Joe, for what you describe you are planning on doing, that anchor should do 
just fine. If you think you may be possibly caught needing more secure footing, 
there are several recently introduced anchors that may serve you better; Rocna 
etc, but at considerably more cost. As others are pointing out, more weight 
means more security and the more chain in the rode, the better the anchor will 
perform.

You might also consider installing a windlass as, unless you are a built like a 
windlass, manually hauling bigger anchors and more chain can be a real slog.

 I used a 15 kg. Bruce with 150’ of 5/16” chain backed by 200’ of ⅝” nylon rode 
with a Lofrans windlass on my LF38 for the 17 years I owned her and never had a 
problem.

Hi Joe,

The 35 lb'der will be okay as a "lunch hook", occasional, or whatever 
you want to call. It can even be considered big for that service.


Serious cruising where you have many more nights/year on the hook and 
very little discretion on when to stay overnight at anchor means a 
minimum 45# is in order. More chain helps too and getting the hook 
down before Happy Hour is better.


On the 35 footer, I've been summer cruising with a "temporary" 22# 
Delta plow and 10 fathoms of chain for 5 years now. I've got an 
appropriate 33# Bruce Lee once I get my bow roller & winch installed. :)


Cheers, Russ

I used a 35-lb CQR on my LF38 for many years on the Chesapeake Bay with only 10 
feet of chain.  It was fine except in real bad blows.  I have since changed to 
a 45-lb Bruce and will be adding a 45-lb Rocna as I prepare for long-distance 
cruising in sand bottoms--both anchors with 35 feet of chain and 5/8-inch 
diameter rodes.

Re: Stus-List MkV Pintle and Gudgeons / TuffLuff

2015-05-31 Thread Brent Driedger via CnC-List
There's no rush. It's an annoyance only. I have a tiller tamer that takes care 
of the nighttime noise. It's those windless Wednesday nights following a gusty 
day where the lake takes a while to settle down. With no pressure against the 
rudder it flops around and bugs me. I've got larger issues that need attention 
before I commit to the Gudgeon project. If I can arrange the parts I'll do it 
next season. I just dropped a boat unit replacing my TuffLuff. 
Now there's a sore spot. Some guy at the Schaffer factory throws my empty Coke 
bottles into a machine, pulls a leaver, squirts out 46 feet of extrusion and 
charges me $400 for the effort. Wow. Now that's a racket!

Re: Stus-List Anchor Size

2015-05-31 Thread David Lenehan via CnC-List
Joe,

The general rule of thumb with anchors is one pound per foot (length of
yacht).

However, that's just a guide.  If your boat is heavier than average boats
of 38 feet, take the next size up.  Shouldn't be, in your case.  The same
rule (get the next size up) applies if you have a lot of windage (no, not
from beans - from the likes of a large spray dodger or a closed in bimini)
or if you are likely to be in heavy wind conditions while at anchor.

Having said all that, keep in mind that the anchor is not the only factor.
The length and type of rode and the depth of water are big factors.  Within
reason, the more chain rode the better.

My usual approach is take a size larger and as much chain as my boat can
handle.  My last boat (a 43 footer) carried 250' of 3/8" galvanised chain
with a 54lb CQR as the primary anchor.  Never dragged the hook in any
conditions and we never used the secondary anchor.

Hope that helps.  Factors relating to your particular weather and sea
conditions are better answered by someone geographically closer than me.
And there should be plenty of them.

Best of luck,
David

One old trick for tightening a bushing on a shaft is to centre punch the 
bushing (gudgeon) around the shaft (pintle) hole. That will spread the metal 
around the shaft enough to remove minor slop. It’s not the best way to fix a 
problem but will work for a while until you can do a permanent repair.

It is indeed, originally a 1/2 inch diameter pin in a 1/2 inch diameter hole. 
On mine, the portion on the rudder is still a nice close fit. Just the holes in 
the gudgeon are enlarged. I did use some 1/2 inch shrink tubing at one time to 
make up the difference. There really is not room for anything thicker. It seems 
so loose, but it really is not much of a gap at all. Just enough for an 
annoying clunk-clunk-clunk all night long of I don't wedge a length of pool 
noodle between the rudder and transom before turning in for the night.

There is likewise, not enough meat to comfortably enlarge the gudgeon holes to 
fit thicker bushings. The only option would be to reduce the pin to 7/16 inch 
to allow for a slightly thicker bushing than the very thin shrink tubing. Note 
that the shrink tubing can not be a continuous piece the length of the pin, as 
it will not fit through the hole in the rudder piece. Not nearly as simple a 
problem as it might seem. I may even remove the piece over next winter and have 
Garhaur or some other machine shop make me new ones using my old one as a 
model. If I take that route, I will have them make it with a thicker wall, and 
room for replaceable generic plastic bushings.

What brand of anchor are you looking at? Holding power varies widely

Sounds like my '73 25 Mk1 has a similar setup to your 27 Mk 5.  The upper 
gudgeon casting is a single and the lower gudgeon casting is a double.  On the 
25 there is a single hinge rod, half-inch diameter, which passes through both 
gudgeons.  I had a similar clunk in my rudder whenever I was on the mooring.  I 
was not able to locate any off-the-shelf replacement gudgeons which were 
anywhere near as beefy as these originals on my boat.

I brought the gudgeons, the hinge rod, and the mating parts from the rudder to 
a machine shop so they understood the issue.  They opened up the already 
enlarged hole in the gudgeon only slightly, enough to make it round again.  
Then they turned down the OD of two flanged bronze bushings to achieve the 
desired fit, and pressed them into the gudgeon.  The ID of the bushings was 
then bored to match the rod size.  I don't have any concerns with the strength 
of it.  These pinned joints are strong as long as the clearance between the pin 
and the journal is minimized.

I just noticed that South Shore Yachts does sell the single gudgeons, $90 each.

Re: Stus-List New Electrical System is Installed -- ThankYouListers!

2015-05-31 Thread Marek Dziedzic via CnC-List
keep in mind that all electronics work on smoke – you let the smoke out and 
they stop working. The only solution is to replace the part (assuming that the 
new one has enough smoke inside) or to capture the released smoke and stuff it 
back into the device. But that last option is not that easy.

Re: Stus-List Lift mufflers

Ed,

 

I put in a Vernalift muffler a number of years ago.  I think it was a 1.5” 
inlet and 2” outlet.  It’s small, but does the job beautifully.  I have a 
reducer at the transom to take the 2” hose down to match the 1 ½” outlet in the 
transom.  My 3GM30F does just fine with it.  There are a lot of configurations 
to choose from.

Sam:

In an earlier post, I tried to steer Mike in that direction.that 
hose is as you say "a complex shape" and trying to fit a normally 
straight hose in those contortions is not something I would look forward 
to.especially when there is a simple solution.buy a specifically 
designed/shaped Yanmar hose.


I went a step further and took Yanmar up on an offer to purchase all the 
engine hoses as a complete package..I figured, sometime or another, 
I will need a replacement hose for the rest of the engine on a 30 year boat.

Ordinary automotive heater hose will work fine, and it will last about as
long as it does in a car, which is quite a while. Most of us don't drive
around in 30 year old cars, but we do sail around in 30 year old boats, so
the fact that the original hoses are getting tired shouldn't deter us from
using the same type as original hoses. Silicone hose is available from speed
shops, and the blue or green colour would look cool too, but at a price. It
has more heat and chemical resistance, but with slightly less mechanical
strength, so the tube walls are made thicker.

Mike:

We have the same enginea 1984 modela few years back, I just 
bought the whole hose replacement kit from Yanmar and replaced all the 
engine hoses.   With all the Yanmar hoses specifically cut and fit for 
its intended purpose, it was a relatively easy job.  And now we have 
peace of mind.  I don't remember the exact cost but it was not 
outrageous for every engine hose.and even if you don't change them 
all at the same time, you will have it in the 'vault' should an 
emergency hose situation arise.


Steve has a good idea as well automotive heater hose will work just

Subject: Re: Stus-List MkV Pintle and Gudgeons

It is indeed, originally a 1/2 inch diameter pin in a 1/2 inch diameter 
hole. On mine, the portion on the rudder is still a nice close fit. Just 
the holes in the gudgeon are enlarged. I did use some 1/2 inch shrink 
tubing at one time to make up the difference. There really is not room 
for anything thicker. It seems so loose, but it really is not much of a 
gap at all. Just enough for an annoying clunk-clunk-clunk all night long 
of I don't wedge a length of pool noodle between the rudder and transom 
before turning in for the night.

There is likewise, not enough meat to comfortably enlarge the gudgeon 
holes to fit thicker bushings. The only option would be to reduce the 
pin to 7/16 inch to allow for a slightly thicker bushing than the very 
thin shrink tubing. Note that the shrink tubing can not be a continuous 
piece the length of the pin, as it will not fit through the hole in the 
rudder piece. Not nearly as simple a problem as it might seem. I may 
even remove the piece over next winter and have Garhaur or some other 
machine shop make me new ones using my old one as a model. If I take 
that route, I will have them make it with a thicker wall, and room for 
replaceable generic plastic bushings.

Had the same problem on my Mirage 25. I curled a thin piece of stainless shim 
stock around the pintle and slid it into the gudgeon.  Worked fine for several 
years until I sold the boat.___

Stus-List Fixed overhead hatch - C&C 32

2015-05-31 Thread Stevan Plavsa via CnC-List
Hi All,

The later 32s had an opening port in the ceiling mid-ship. The earlier
ones, at least mine, are fixed. Just a piece of plexi bonded in somehow.

Has anyone replaced this with an opening port?
I figure it'll be time to reseal that thing soon it's starting to show
signs of letting water in, a drop or two when it rains. Digging it out
looks daunting so I figure it's going to be a job one way or the other I
may as well cough up a few bucks for an opening port and stick that in
there "while I'm at it".

Anyone done this with theirs?

Thanks,

Steve

I have brake pad material left over from when I relined my wheel brake.

I'll happily share the left overs with listers. I can send a piece big
enough to do both brake pads for the cost of shipping. Email me off list.

I built a lightsaber when I was 16, unintentionally.

It was *supposed* to be a 40-meter CW transmitter, but I made an error 
etching the circuit board, and that tube glowed BRIGHT purple when the 
high voltage hit it.


Thus my delight that my 24' has a minimal electrical system (that's 
getting overhauled, too).

Re: Stus-List Recirculating pump

2015-05-31 Thread S Thomas via CnC-List
Ordinary automotive heater hose will work fine, and it will last about as 
long as it does in a car, which is quite a while. Most of us don't drive 
around in 30 year old cars, but we do sail around in 30 year old boats, so 
the fact that the original hoses are getting tired shouldn't deter us from 
using the same type as original hoses. Silicone hose is available from speed 
shops, and the blue or green colour would look cool too, but at a price. It 
has more heat and chemical resistance, but with slightly less mechanical 
strength, so the tube walls are made thicker.

Re: Stus-List MkV Pintle and Gudgeons

2015-05-31 Thread Bill Bina via CnC-List
It is indeed, originally a 1/2 inch diameter pin in a 1/2 inch diameter 
hole. On mine, the portion on the rudder is still a nice close fit. Just 
the holes in the gudgeon are enlarged. I did use some 1/2 inch shrink 
tubing at one time to make up the difference. There really is not room 
for anything thicker. It seems so loose, but it really is not much of a 
gap at all. Just enough for an annoying clunk-clunk-clunk all night long 
of I don't wedge a length of pool noodle between the rudder and transom 
before turning in for the night.


There is likewise, not enough meat to comfortably enlarge the gudgeon 
holes to fit thicker bushings. The only option would be to reduce the 
pin to 7/16 inch to allow for a slightly thicker bushing than the very 
thin shrink tubing. Note that the shrink tubing can not be a continuous 
piece the length of the pin, as it will not fit through the hole in the 
rudder piece. Not nearly as simple a problem as it might seem. I may 
even remove the piece over next winter and have Garhaur or some other 
machine shop make me new ones using my old one as a model. If I take 
that route, I will have them make it with a thicker wall, and room for 
replaceable generic plastic bushings.
