Re: Stus-List Marine Surveyor Halifax,NS

[Josh Muckley via CnC-List]

I've had 3 different surveys all from various surveyors.  It is my opinion
that the best survey is the one you do yourself and the best surveyor is
the cheapest.  I've never had a surveyor who went to the depth of detail I
would have wanted.  They are doing what almost anyone with an entry level
of boat knowledge could do.  No engine.  No rig.  Not even a very in depth
look at the electrical or structure.  Basic and common stuff that will
cause fires or sinking.  Your money is far better spent buying a book about
how to perform your own survey.  You can even buy their (the surveyor's)
moisture meters and IR cameras for less than the cost of the survey.  You
perform the preliminary survey yourself.  If you like what you see then pay
for the cheapest surveyor you can find just to get a check in the box for
the bank or insurance.

Stus-List Bad Vibes from Maxprop?

[Chris Tirtirau via CnC-List]

I got a strange vibration/sound coming from outside the hull, under the cockpit 
floor, when motoring in my 37. After seeing two separate mechanics I was told 
it was the rudder vibrating and creating harmonics as the water pushed by the 
Maxprop flows by it. Apparently harmless but annoying and to me unsettling 
nevertheless. I cannot reach cruising speed with that sound and vibration under 
my feet.
Any ideas? I have the original 2-bladed prop. Should I revert to original, or 
can anything be done about the Maxprop? I talked to the Maxprop people and I 
had the pitch set according to their specs but it looks like the C rudder 
design doesn't like it.

Iain Tulloch is excellent. Very thorough but if you just want in “insurance” 
survey you might want to get somebody who doesn’t dig so deep as the insurance 
companies will want every little thing mentioned in the survey addressed before 
they will issue a policy.___

Re: Stus-List PHRF - 1990 C 34+DK

[Tim Goodyear via CnC-List]

PHRF New England has base handicap of 81 for the 34/36 "R", 84 for the "XL", 
and 87 for the regular one (the basic +, I think).  These are all deeper keels 
than the wing keep version that rates 102 base.  I would think 105 is a fair 
bit out.

Stus-List 2016 C Northeast Rendezvous -- Next Month! -- September 10-12 -- Mystic Seaport

[Edd Schillay via CnC-List]

Listers,

Just a reminder that, just a little more than a month away, we will be having 
our fifth annual C Northeast Rendezvous at the beautiful and historic Mystic 
Seaport. Some highlights:

We are staying in the seaport. At night, all the guests leave and we have the 
place to ourselves (and the night watchmen.)
Free dockage on Sunday if you pay for a Saturday night stay. 
Private tour of the seaport, including “exhibits that are not on exhibit”.
A C planetarium show.
Group dockside dinners, boat tours, annual whiskey sharing, late night revelry, 
flying Chinese lanterns, cigars, moderately foul language and all around 
silliness.

Not to be missed — plan your trip now and register! So far, we have a C 30 
MkII, a C 34+, a C 35. a C 36, a C 37+ and a C 40.

See our Rendezvous Website at http://cncnortheast.com 
 and our Rendezvous “Movie Trailer” at 
https://youtu.be/eKHpkatTwuk  (Over 500 Views! — 
OK, Maybe not “Viral”, but we’ll take it.)

Re: Stus-List mast collar straps

[S Thomas via CnC-List]

Tom, 
many C 36 and 38 from around that year have had similar problems. I 
have the same model and year of boat as you have, and I am relatively new to it 
as well. 

Part of what your are experiencing is just the "natural" reshaping and relaxing 
of the hull and deck in response to stress over time. When in the water, the 
weight of the keel and the load of the rig tension pushes the mast step and the 
hull surrounding the keel down relative to the rest of the boat. The mast 
straps, (which are occasionally and erroneously referred to as the partners), 
are attached to the deck and pull it down to the extent that the mast step 
moves down relative to the rest of the boat. When the boat is out of the water 
these forces are either relieved (rig tension) or reversed (keel  weight) and 
the boat will take a few days to settle in again once back in the water. These 
effects need to be taken into account before considering any remedial or 
restorative action. Jacking up the mast a little bit to get the bolts in may be 
the best solution if it is not too far. A small amount of load on the deck may 
not be a bad thing. On my boat I think it is a bit too far since the deck 
appears to be depressed around the mast collar by more than 1/2 an inch. 

I can not see anything wrong with the transverse wood and fibreglass supports 
immediately ahead of and behind the mast step box. What I have been told is 
that sometimes the space under the box was filled with more or less random bits 
of wood. fibreglass, and resin to build up a support platform, and that the 
sinking mast syndrome in that case is due to that wood rotting and probably not 
structural in any sense other than the loss of a shim under the mast. I have 
not decided what to do with mine yet, but there is a 1978 C 38 at our club 
which had a piece of aluminum plate cut to fit inside the step box, and it has 
worked fine for a couple of decades now. That will be my solution unless I find 
a good reason not to do it. 

I too would welcome further information or experience from others who have 
dealt with the same problem on the same or very similar boats.

  Hi,
  This is my first season sailing  after a season on the hard doing repairs. 
When the yard re-stepped the mast the holes on the metal straps that bolt 
through the mast no longer align. The holes on the mast are lower by 3/8". As 
part of the rehab I had removed the mast collar. so I initially thought that I 
used too much caulking in the installation. I removed the collar and scrapped 
away all the caulking but the holes are still off. I wasn't there when the yard 
had originally took out the mast so I'm not sure if there was anything under 
the mast causing it to be slightly higher. I'm relunctant to drill a new set of 
holes.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Re: Stus-List mast collor straps

[jhnelson via CnC-List]

For the record you want to un-tighten the rig. Tightening should make it worse. 
Even have Backstay off. 
I put my straps on before putting my mast all the way in.

Tightening the rig didn't work. The next step was 
to do like you suggested with adding something under the mast. I'm a little 
apprensive of causing damage to the deck with just lifting and dropping.

Re: Stus-List mast collar straps

[Sébastien Lemieux via CnC-List]

Hi Tom,

  a similar situation happened to us a few years ago. We solved it by attaching 
the lower hole on the stainless strap to the bottom of the mast and bringing 
them closer (1/2 inch in our case) using a home depot bought turnbuckle. It 
worked, but the approach felt wrong.

  I was under the impression that the correct way to do it would be to attach 
the straps before the mast is completely lowered (and still attached to the 
crane). Our boat's manual says: "NB: Before proceeding, be sure to attach the 
deck collar tie-down straps to the mast below deck." This note appears at the 
point where the weight of the mast is transferred from the crane to the step.

best,

Make sure all your halyards, vang, cunningham, etc are slackened if they
are led back to the cockpit. Kind of obvious, but it definitely makes a

Re: Stus-List mast collar straps

If you have any rig tension on that would do it. 
Other options, assuming you haven't had any mast step work done is to raise the 
mast up a bit, put the bolts in and drop it back down. Or shim the mast up to 
the right height.

When my gooseneck broke (in a similar manner to what you describe), I removed 
it from the mast and took it to a local machine shop. They made a replacement 
out of stainless. Curved plate to mount to the mast with two tangs to hold the 
stainless pivot pin. The spacing of the tangs was a bit off, so I put some 
nylon fender washers in the stack as spacers for the end of the boom to ride on.

 

It wasn’t real expensive (though given the differential in costs from NC to RI, 
it would probably cost you a lot more than it did me), and the fabrication took 
a week or two.

Re: Stus-List SailTimer Wind Instrument

Thanks Bettina. When I was evaluating the SailTimer app last summer, I found 
the company to be very responsive to my questions about the software. I just 
wish they were more communicative about estimated shipping dates of hardware 
orders. I do read their newsletter; that is the only source of updates. They 
don't have a phone number, and they are not responsive to email inquiries about 
shipping dates (in fact they actually discourage such inquiries). I'm still 
sold on the technical advantages of the product, but by the time I finally get 
it, the sailing season will be almost over for the year.

Derek Hatfield, who in 2003 became the 126th person to sail around the globe 
alone, died at the age of 63.

Hatfield "was an inspiration to follow one's dreams and not be deterred despite 
what seemed insurmountable challenges."

He achieved what many sailors only dream of, in a world that many Canadians are 
unaware even exists.

Piloting the "Spirit of Canada," a 12-metre sailboat he built with friends and 
family, Hatfield sailed 28,700 nautical miles in nine months to achieve his 
goal of circumnavigating the globe.

Hatfield completed the around-the-world solo race again a second time in 2011.
