OK I put one such spreadsheet in 
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-NqAxQ6JxFTbG9JcGs1MFpWOTQ, called 
Corrections.xlsx. It shows time corrections in seconds using PHRF TOT for a 
number of different boats in my club, given elapsed time in a race. For example 
in a one-hour JAM race I have to beat the Catalina 27s by two minutes, and the 
Catalina 25 by 3.5 minutes, or they'll correct over me. 

You could edit the spreadsheet to contain data for the boats in your race 
(given their PHRF ratings), and use the data to figure out start times. Column 
D contains the Time Correction Factor for each boat, given its PHRF rating and 
the PHRF TOT formula TCF=A/(B+PHRF). You can plug in whatever values your club 
uses into cells B2 and B3. 

I've asked my club's scorer for his pursuit race start time spreadsheet, and 
will put it on my Google drive when I get it, and notify you. 

Cheers, 
Randy

Thanks everybody. Randy, if it were not too much trouble it would be great to 
see your spreadsheet. Dennis sent one that I could definitely use too. I have 
this great IRC version, but it doesn't apply for PHRF. Regatta Rasta man is pay

Has anyone been organized and been Race Committee for a 'Pursuit Race' before? 
I am curious how you went about it. 

Obviously there is some calculation of start times in relation to each boat's 
rating. These are our contestants . I figure there will be three starts. 1 for 
the 'Level' racers, 1 for 'No Score' racers, and another for PHRF, i.e. the 
Pursuit racers. This is the first race in our winter series, which runs till 
March. We thought we might kick it off with a fun race format. Thanks for your 
input!

Hi

NCYC will also be trying a pursuit race best summer. 

I would also appreciate spreadsheet templates with sample data. 

We are a non racing cruising club with very few boats having a PHRF 
ceetificate. This makes the  base numbers imaginative!

Re: Stus-List Winterizing an Atomic 4

2016-10-10 Thread Marek Dziedzic via CnC-List
Different engine, but the same procedure.

I take the intake hose off the seacock and connect a length of hose (about 2 m 
(6-7 Ft)). This goes into a bucket (e.g. from home depot, 5 gal). I run a 
garden hose to it from a water supply. I fill the bucket with water and start 
the engine. This way you can run the engine as long as you want (e.g. until it 
warms up). You regulate the level of the water in the bucket by adjusting the 
throttle and the flow of water. When the engine is warm enough, I stop it. Now 
I replace the water with antifreeze. A few gallons should be enough. In my 
Perkins I use almost a full bucket (antifreeze is cheap, engine parts are not). 
When the AF is gone from the bucket, I stop the engine. My long hose is almost 
transparent so I can time it, so there is very little AF left in it. If you 
want to be sure, you can capture some of the AF coming out of the exhaust and 
check with a $15 refractometer.

This method helps with changing the oil- the engine is warm.

You can push the water out of the muffler with a shopvac half way through.

My first haul-out with my 30-1 (purchased in January) is coming up in a few 
weeks, sadly. The PO advised me to just run antifreeze through the raw-water 
cooling system until it comes out the exhaust.  My main question is how to get 
the antifreeze into the raw water intake.  I've seen a gadget made from a 
toilet plunger with a garden hose plumbed into the rubber cone, that can be 
held over the raw water intake with the other end of the hose in a bucket of 
antifreeze.  Any other recommended techniques?  Any other general tips on 
properly winterizing an A4?

I just disconnect the intake hose from the seacock and stick it into a
bottle of antifreeze. I'm running without thermostat however so it's
simple. If you're new with the A4 a great resource is moyer marine. The

Re: Stus-List Winterizing an Atomic 4

2016-10-10 Thread Josh Muckley via CnC-List
You can plumb in auxiliary suctions that will let you draw glycol straight
out of the jug.  If you haul the boat you can stuff a tygon hose up the
through hull and beer bong the glycol into the engine.  Or you can try the
seaflush.  I have one and it works, though it might be a bit over priced.
I like using the shop vac to blow the water out.  That may actually be
sufficient.   I am cautious though and carefully consider the possibility
of stagnant loops of water.  So, despite "blowing out"  the engine, I also
run glycol.  The nice thing is that I don't have to worry as much about the
water diluting the glycol.  It takes way less glycol to provide freeze
protection.

Thanks Dave. I recall meeting you and thanks for your past and current advice. 
As it turned out on the banging problem we discussed turned out to be a massive 
brain fart on my part. I had replaced the plastic shift lever with a stainless 
one and the throws are different. The replacement stainless lever was coming in 
contact with the protector before forward was fully engaged which caused the 
banging. I figured it out a few days after we met.

Re: Stus-List Seeping Depth Sounder

If you can back the ring off enough to insert it, butyl tape or a thick
ring of Lanocote would probably make it leak-free for a while.

Re: Stus-List Race Committee for Pursuit Race

Kevin,

 

There are a couple ways that you can do this.  At my current club we have a 
pseudo pursuit race, we start the boats at one minute intervals according to 
their PHRF rating and then compute each boat’s TOT corrected time after the 
race.  It’s a lot of work for the RC but ends up with a more fair race.  At my 
former club we had a true pursuit race.  We worked out the length of the course 
and computed the TOD start times for each boat entered.  The slowest boat 
started first and each boat had its designated start time.  The first boat to 
cross the finish line won.

Obviously there is some calculation of start times in relation to each boat's 
rating. These are our contestants 

 . I figure there will be three starts. 1 for the 'Level' racers, 1 for 'No 
Score' racers, and another for PHRF, i.e. the Pursuit racers. This is the first 
race in our winter series, which runs till March. We thought we might kick it

Re: Stus-List Race Committee for Pursuit Race

2016-10-10 Thread Indigo via CnC-List
We do several pursuit races a year at my club. 

Here is how we do it. 

1) rank the entries in PHRF order. If a boat does not have a valid certificate 
we get the rating for that class if boat from the local PHRF database. 

2) Knowing the charted distance of the race, we calculate the number of minutes 
/ seconds owed by all boats to the slowest in the fleet.  

3) Add that time allowance to the race start time (the starting time for the 
slowest boat) and give each boat its own start time  - GPS time - clearly those 
with the same rating will start together. 

4) Sometimes we use an official starting line, other times an honor system with 
a bearing from a fixed government mark. 

5) First boat to the finish line (usually "honor") is the winner. 

If you want to add some fun to the race consider adding "engine" time. In our 
most popular pursuit race, a distance of about 15 miles - two legs from one 
harbor to another with a dog-leg - boats can use their engines for a maximum of 
20 minutes (honor!). Some use it at the start, others reserve it for the end in 
case the wind dies, others to counteract adverse tides.   The trophy is a large 
stuffed soft toy "rat" that is required to be on display at the members house 
from one race to the next!!  We call the race the "Rat Race!!"  It is passed 
from winner to winner at a raft up at the destination!

Are you hauling it out?  If not, you should consider disconnecting the exhaust 
elbow so that the water lift muffler doesn't draw moist air in and out of the 
engine as the boat rocks fore and aft.  Obviously wait till you're done running 
glycol through.
Many people choose to change the oil/filter and tranny fluid.  Some people also 
choose to remove the raw water pump impeller.  Others also take the opportunity 
to change the fuel filter(s).  You can also fog a diesel though there are mixed 
opinions.  The manual actually suggests "roll" the engine once a month by 
pulling the decompression levers and running the starter till the oil pressure 
alarm clears.  This keeps the bearings and rings from getting too dry.
As recently mentioned, I have an immersion heater that I plug in.  200w keeps 
the condensation out and slightly heats the cabin.
