When under power you are no longer a sailing vessel.  White Light showing 225 
over port and starboard running lights.  Just one more tug boat.

Re: Stus-List 35-1 Cored Hull?

2016-04-04 Thread Neil Gallagher via CnC-List
My 35-1 has the same two bands, one at each end of the keel.  When I 
first got the boat the insurance survey found voids at the top end of 
them on one side where the raised part fairs back to the normall hull 
thickness, which had to be from the original layup as there's not much 
load at the top and no sign of cracks.  Nevertheless, my insurance co. 
made me fill those voids with epoxy...

Re: Stus-List LED Nav Lights

2016-04-04 Thread Rick Brass via CnC-List
I don’t recall any requirement in the COLREGS that a “Masthead” light actually 
be at the top of a mast. And since the “Masthead light” identifies that the 
boat being observed is a power driven vessel, I would be kind of surprised if 
there was such a requirement. 

 

Sailing Vessels display only red and green bow lights and a 135 degree white 
stern light (or, in the alternative a red, green and white tricolor light at 
the top of the tallest mast).

 

I suppose that’s why sailors like you and I think of the white light on the 
front of the mast as a Steaming Light. We only turn it on when we are 
“steaming” and our sailboat becomes a tall power boat.

 

The number and positions of the “masthead lights” on a power driven vessel are 
spelled out in the COLREGS and will indicate the length of the boat (and fore 
from aft). I do think they need to be the highest lights on display, but I’ve 
seen masthead lights affixed to a bracket on the top of the wheelhouse on a 
trawler, and to the strut holding the radar antenna on a tug, and those don’t 
count as a masts in my book.

Re: Stus-List 35-1 Cored Hull?

2016-04-04 Thread Martin DeYoung via CnC-List
Based on the C&C 43 drawings I purchased from the Maritime Museum of the Great 
Lakes the C&C team learned from early hull experiences and added reinforcements 
on later hulls.

Maybe an earlier 35-1 owner reported an issue and the extra stiffener was added 
to later hulls.  From the pictures it looks well sealed.

As part of the ongoing restoration projects on Calypso we are adding the 
reinforcements shown on the drawings (some hand drawn in), especially just 
forward of the keel where we already repaired some fractures in Calypso’s hull 
back in 1999.  From several C&C 61 drawings I purchased, both hull #1 of the 
61’s and Calypso, hull # 1 of the 43’s had the same flaw and needed the same 
reinforcements.

I could not determine which hull number of the 43’s first received a “factory 
installed” reinforcement but I expect it was not in time for hull #’s 2 and 3.  
When launched, as “Arieto” in early 1971, our 43 was racing in the SORC within 
a few months.  I expect no mercy was shown regarding backstay and rig pressures 
in securing that year’s 1st in class (10th in fleet) wins.  It likely started 
to show some unexpected hull flex as difficulty in holding forestay tension.

IIRC hull #1 of the 61’s was Sorcery.  If so, I expect Sorcery was raced hard 
enough, with high enough hull and rig forces to precipitate an early issue that 
lead to other boats being inspected and the design team working out the fixes.

underside of our teak drink holder (which slides onto the stainless
binnacle), so it is partially protected from rain, but certainly not fully.
I don't claim it to be the most bombproof solution, but the price and
convenience have been great and we have another hard wired GPS at the helm

Re: Stus-List GPS

2016-04-04 Thread sthoma20--- via CnC-List
Only some tablets have cellular network capability, and if they do not, then 
they are not likely to have GPS built in either. I bought a 10 inch Samsung Tab 
2 that has LTE capability, and it does work as a chart plotter, but only as 
good as the software down loaded. Hard to find cables for the Tab 2 by the way. 
The 30 pin connector is not the same as on the I-phone-pad stuff. 

I was disappointed that a tablet with LTE connectivity could not be used as a 
cell phone. That decision by the manufacturers is marketing, and not technical. 
Yeah I know there is Skype etc., but it would be handy to make regular phone 
calls with a headset and a large screen.

I was very disappointed when the first WiFi only iPad I bought did 
not include GPS capability.  I got a DUAL Bluetooth GPS puck and it 
works great.   Actually a much better GOPS that what is in any tablet 
as it samples many more satellites to establish your position.


As for the iPad power issue, with Navionics, you can shut down the 
iPad to limit battery usage and the app will still track your route 
which eliminates most of the power drain, even if you don not have it 
plugged in.

Rick,
 
This is a bit of splitting hairs, but your statement is not entirely 
correct. You can easily have a cellular-enabled tablet without the GPS (even if 
it unlikely, especially lately), as much as you can have a Wi-Fi only tablet 
with GPS included.
 
However, for iPads (which by no means constitute the majority of tablets) 
that is true – if you have cellular-enabled iPad, you will get the GPS; if you 
don’t, you won’t.

On the Apple side, it is easy – you need GSM (cellular) enabled iPad (no 
cellular plan is needed), but the module is shared between the GSM(HSUPA/LTE)

On the Android side – look for the specs. If it says GPS – yes, it is good, if

Hi,

I have use the IPad for navigation successfully for years.   Power consumption 
is not an issue as long as you use a proper usb 12V adapter/plug.  Many of the 
cheaper plugs provide 5V power at 1A or less.
Use a plug which provides power with at least 2A and there will be no problem 
of battery drain while using the iPad and charging.Not only will the iPad 
work fine, but you will also be able to charge your 
phone much faster too.

Hey guys,

My understanding is that later model iPads and iPhones that are not "WiFi
Only" all have GPS receivers that are entirely separate from the cellular
receiver/transmitter.  So, the GPS receiver will work even if you do not
have a cellular data plan or cellular service.

So, these devices do NOT need cell service to determine your position.
However, you WILL need cellular service to download the map imagery or chart
imagery itself if you have not already downloaded the map or chart imagery
via wifi before your voyage.

Hope this helps clear things up.

This website has detailed technical data for all iPhones and iPads.

Any tablet that is capable of getting cellular data must have an internal GPS, 
just like a cell phone. There does not need to be a cellular data link for the 
internal GPS to work.

I'm sending this message on an older iPad that has never been connected to a 
cellular network.

Re: Stus-List GPS

2016-04-04 Thread Ryan Doyle via CnC-List
Hey guys,

My understanding is that later model iPads and iPhones that are not "WiFi Only" 
all have GPS receivers that are entirely separate from the cellular 
receiver/transmitter.  So, the GPS receiver will work even if you do not have a 
cellular data plan or cellular service.

So, these devices do NOT need cell service to determine your position.  
However, you WILL need cellular service to download the map imagery or chart 
imagery itself if you have not already downloaded the map or chart imagery via 
wifi before your voyage.

Hope this helps clear things up.

This website has detailed technical data for all iPhones and iPads.

Re: Stus-List LED Nav Lights

2016-04-04 Thread Frederick G Street via CnC-List
Bill — all the MarineBeam gear I’ve seen is top-notch; all their LED fixtures 
and lamp replacements have high-end constant-current drivers, which means 
they’ll take anywhere from 10-30VDC without any change in brightness (which 
protects them from damage if, say, your alternator regulator fails and suddenly 
you’re putting out 15+VDC…); and they’re insensitive to polarity, so you can’t 
blow them up by accidentally wiring them positive to negative.  And their warm 
white LEDs look really good, as opposed to the cheap knock-offs.

For me, it’s worth it to have great visibility of all my nav lights under any 
conditions; and to not have to replace any bulbs.  Both of the fixtures I 
purchased are 3NM USCG-approved; many of the lesser fixtures out there are only 
2NM.

Because by the definition in the ColRegs, a “Masthead” light is white and shows 
over an arc of 225 degrees facing the bow of the boat. I know, I call it a 
steaming light and that is what the switch on my switch panel says.

 

The all-around white light that you put on when you are at anchor, are aground, 
etc. isn’t called an “Anchor Light” – even though that is what I have marked on 
the switch. That is referred to as an All-around white light in the ColRegs.

Re: Stus-List GPS

Elizabeth,

Steve is correct, you don’t need a data plan to use the GPS, but an iPad won’t 
have the GPS hardware without the cellular capability.  However, my experience 
is that the iPad battery drains quickly with the GPS on full time, so Fred’s 
suggestion might be a better option for that reason.  I did a charter last year 
on a boat without a good chartplotter so I used my iPad.  I found that with the 
12v system on that boat, I was losing charge even with the iPad plugged in.  I 
had to shut it down to charge at times just to make sure I had adequate battery 
for the depth challenged areas I was sailing in.  Without the GPS on, it 
charged just fine.

Pretty much all Android tablets have built in GPS -- a lot of cheaper 
options that are less concerning if they get wet.
One nice bonus - if you buy the Navionics app for one tablet - then all 
android devices that use the same account can use the app.



As I understand from previous discussions on this list - Apple has the 
GPS components on the tied to the cellular network components --- so 
iPad needs to be cellular capable to access GPS.

Also give a listen to the UE speakers.   They come with a bit of shock chord 
that easily wraps around a pulpit.

Re: Stus-List Bluetooth Speakers on Deck

"Install a stereo with Bluetooth or MP3 aux input and installed speakers."
This.

One of the first things I did on Suhana. The PO had installed cockpit
speakers but never installed the marine deck he had purchased some years
prior. The uninstalled deck was included when I purchased the boat but it
was old and had no features so I purchased a Kenwood car stereo, new for
about $100. Has served very well. I keep my phone in my pocket so when I'm
at the helm I can play music to it via bluetooth. If you want to keep the
iphone inside the boat and the portable speaker outside, I think you're
doing it backwards :)

Have you heard of the Amazon Tap?

It is an Alexa enabled bluetooth speaker with claims of a 9hr battery life and 
can be charged via a USB cable.

Thanks Josh, but I'm already "stoved up". Let's 
see, there's the Force 10, a Seaward Princess and a Hillerange, all with oven.


Cheers, Russ

you can be confident in a Force 10 replacement. 
It's what I would consider as first choice, but look at the others.
