Re: Stus-List Salvage or great price?

Its hard to believe he can't sell it at that price!  Main and jib 10k.  New
chart plotter 2k.  Not unusual for a boat that is 26 years old!

The draft is a big issue for the Chesapeake.  I also makes me wonder if I
would have to give away my 35/3!​  If he would only take mine in trade...!

Re: Stus-List knotmeter malfunction

2015-08-31 Thread Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List 
The paddle wheel spins freely and the knotmeter works. The only thing I can 
think of is some random piece of goo was stuck on it from the dirty bottom and 
I never saw it because of the pressure wash at haulout.
In other news I got my spare impeller out and it works too – but it is missing 
the O-rings. WTF??? Good thing I looked now!

The paddle wheel should turn easily when you blow on it. If it doesn't then you 
may need to clean the socket in which it turns. Bleach helps.

Joe,
I had the same symptoms with my knotmeter last week. The boat had been unused 
for several weeks with the bung installed. I installed the transducer(s) before 
leaving the dock and the knotmeter read zero until we had covered about 5 miles 
when it started reading correctly. I assumed there was a build-up of growth in 
front of the paddlewheel, and it performed fine for the rest of the trip.

Other than the water in the coring, which it doesn't say how much. She
seems to have been well taken care of. Lots of new stuff worth much more
than $19k. It would be a great project boat. Look at what Wally went

Re: Stus-List wet core LF 38

I’d want a second opinion on the degree of water intrusion. Those boats were 
very well built and core wetness can be easily misread and misreported. I 
suggest most 1980’s Landfalls and other cored boats have some areas of less 
than perfect lamination and core wetness but soldier on just fine, thank you.

Re: Stus-List knotmeter malfunction

2015-08-31 Thread Gary W. Russell via CnC-List 
If you are talking Nexus, I think I know the problem.  Mine would spin freely 
when I removed it but wouldn't work when installed.  The problem is growth on 
the inside of the bushing that is not pushed out when the knot meter is 
installed.  The paddle wheel is only slightly smaller than the bushing ID, and 
the paddles catch on the growth.  I had to file about 1/32" off each paddle, 
and never had the problem again.

yes he did.  the surveyor found the wet area in florida before coming back to

Re: Stus-List Self leveling Radar mount

2015-08-31 Thread Martin DeYoung via CnC-List 
Pete,

I had a Questus back stay pole and dampened mount on a C 36 for 7 years.  
Worked great and would have used a Questus pole again if they had a model that 
fit over Calypso's Sailtec backstay adjustor.

On Calypso we have a fixed aluminum pole with an early model of the Scanstrut 
radar platform that is not self-leveling but we do have the ability to tilt the 
platform manually.  It also has performed well for 14 years.  It is rare that 
we need to tilt the radar platform.  For us the tilt function was added for 
long offshore tacks not so much for inland waters.

I do recommend you have plenty of dampening in place for a self-leveling 
platform.  A friend had his poorly dampened platform mounted radar fail at sea 
when the constant motion caused many conductors in the radar cable to fail.  
The repeated bending stress lead to the copper strands fracturing.  It was 
fixed underway in time to make a difficult landfall.

Re: Stus-List wet core LF 38

2015-08-31 Thread Martin DeYoung via CnC-List 
> Those boats were very well built and core wetness can be easily misread and 
> misreported.<

I have looked closely at balsa core that was damp, wet, and rotten (failed).  I 
would not be concerned with a racer/cruiser C with damp core here and there.  
For me, damp means the balsa still looks tan in color and smells like balsa or 
polyester resin.  (It is easy to assess the color and smell of the balsa by 
pulling some hardware mounting bolts in the area of concern.)  Unless heading 
out on a adventurous offshore voyage I would not recommend making repairs 
beyond re-bedding the deck hardware.  Tapping around with a hammer, mildly damp 
core will sound much like dry core unless delamination has occurred. IIRC 
Baltek’s study of wet core failures found 80% of the structure’s strength is 
retained up to 30% water gain.

If the balsa core is wet enough for the tea colored stain to be visible around 
fittings and mounting bolts, especially near high load areas I would 
investigate enough to be confident on how wet the balsa is and the limits or 
the wet area.  If the wet core area is in the immediate area of a fitting, for 
example under a halyard block, I would make a limited repair in that area.  
When tapping with a hammer, wet to very wet core will start to sound slightly 
dull when compared to a known dry area.

If fully failed core is found, extensive repairs may be called for.  On Calypso 
the fully failed core we found stank like a swamp polluted with polyester resin 
which looked black and was often completely broken down by some sort of acidic 
chemical reaction. When tapped with a hammer the fully rotted/failed areas will 
sound hollow and dull.  Often there will be signs or failure like the dark tea 
colored stains, corroded aluminum backing plates, and distorted inner skin.

For those boat owners with good DIY skills repairing limited core issues is 
messy but not difficult.  Over on Sailing Anarchy – Fixit Forum there is a 
great topic underway titled “Ericson 32 mast step repair” that covers, with 
pictures, replacing a failed plywood area under a deck stepped mast.  The 
process discussed would work great for balsa repairs and is similar in concept 
to what I have done repairing failed plywood and balsa around Calypso’s mast 
collar.  I chose to work from below as the inner skin is significantly thinner 
than the outer skin.  As Calypso’s race oriented interior is “stick” built we 
have good access to most of the damaged areas.

Based on a quick look at the listing, if I was in the market for a LF 38 I 
would not be frightened off by a moderate amount of wet core but I would do my 
own inspection and tapping about with a hammer.

I’d want a second opinion on the degree of water intrusion. I suggest most 
1980’s Landfalls and other cored boats have some areas of less than perfect 
lamination and core wetness but soldier on just fine, thank you.

I have no clue if this is a good deal or $19,000 too much. I am guessing the 
owner got a big surprise at sale time.

Re: Stus-List Hot water tank

2015-08-31 Thread Edd Schillay via CnC-List 
My hot water tank was failing as well and I’m in the middle of putting in a 
replacement — the hard part was getting the old one out of the tight space 
under the galley. 

I decided to go with an on-demand water heater which will either be powered by 
shore power or an inverter (2000W) while the engine is running. Here’s the one 
I picked: 
http://m.rakuten.com/product/263816304?listingid=337903396=29963=pla_google_Zoro
 

 

And here is old and new side-by-side: 
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/15162917/ENTERPRISE/heaters.jpg 
 

I’ll try to finish it up over the next couple of weeks, but if not, it’ll be a 
quick winter project. 


All the best,

Edd
