I see these two Johnson bearings:

870322100  * BIND  ID: 1  1/4   OD: 1  1/2 Wall thickness: 
1/16
870322101   BIRD   ID: 1  1/4   OD: 1  3/4 Wall thickness: 1/8

You could try contacting a local machine shop to see if they could
turn down the "BIRD" to an OD of 1 5/8.

Re: Stus-List Cutlass bearing again.

[Chuck S via CnC-List]

I would remove the cutless bearing from the strut and take more measurements. 
The outer dimension may be different once you get it out. Maybe there is a 
sleeve in there? Once it's out, you can take it to a shop and say, "give me one 
of these."

Re: Stus-List Thin plastic sheet for headliner access and other uses

[Chuck S via CnC-List]

I've made some neat projects using expanded PVC sheet available from the lumber 
yard. 3/8" x 4' x 8' sheets are $75 and bend nicely. 3/4" x 4' x 8' sheets are 
stiff and can be structural and cost $125. The common color is bright white 
which looks good on deck. They sell a glue ($12 for a 12oz tube) that welds 
pieces together if you want thicker material without fasteners. The 3/8" sheet 
can bend nicely for ceiling panels up to 8 feet long. 

I found it works like pine, and can be cut, sanded or filed easily, you can 
router the edges and countersink screws easily. But like pine it can scratch 
and dent, but the color is all the way through. It's much cheaper and lighter 
than Starboard, and UV resistant, but not as tough. They use it to make facia 
and outdoor house trim. I made some mounting pads that I sanded to 400 grit and 
it looks smooth like porcelin. I used the 3/4" to make a shelf to support my 
air conditioner. Great stuff. Once you get some, you'll find a 100 uses around 
the house and on the boat and the dock. It would make a great dock box, or set 
of steps, if you design it right.

Hi Joel,
It's unclear, from the manual, whether the GPS info must come into the Standard

(the typical setup) or whether it could alternatively come in via the NMEA 0183

NMEA GPS data stream into the the plotter via the latter path, trying output

was seen by the Chartplotter. (I verified baud rates and all that.)
It's looking like the inbound (to the plotter) NMEA wire in the Power and NMEA

It seemed like a doable hack, but now I don't think that's the case.
Seeing as I don't have the plug at the end of the "Smart GPS Cable", I'm going

Re: Stus-List Replacement Depth Transducer

[Eric Frank via CnC-List]

Bob,

I have two CP150’s, a slightly earlier version than your 155, and can confirm 
that they do accept all the standard NEMA 0183 codes used for navigation.  Mine 
do require an external antenna to use its internal GPS, but it sounds like you 
are already doing that. But they certainly don’t use that for external input.  
I use mine as a display of COG and SOG that it is getting from the chartplotter 
at the helm.  You do need to match the baud rates, of course.  Also, note that 
the 150 (and I assume 155) do NOT have differential inputs.  Instead, what is 
usually the - NMEA input is called “ground”, pin 3, and the wire is green.  The 
input wire for port 1, pin 4, is blue.

You may have missed that you have to put the CP150 into SLAVE mode to disable 
its own GPS unit and use it as a monitor. Here is the page in the manual that 
explains how to do that:
SLAVE
Press the “MENU” + ADVANCE SETUP + “ENTER” + INPUT OUTPUT + “ENTER” + INTERNAL 
GPS SETUP + “ENTER” + OPERATING MODE + “ENTER”+ SLAVE + “ENTER” 

If you don’t have the manual, I can send you a pdf copy.

NMEA cable is just for DSC and DSE messages.
It seemed like a doable hack, but now I don't think that's the case.
Seeing as I don't have the plug at the end of the "Smart GPS Cable", I'm
going to bail out on this one.

P.S. Perhaps too much information, but I would have used the NMEA 0183 GPS
output from my new SH VX2200 radio as the GPS source if the SH CP155C were
able to ingest it via the Power and NMEA cable.
