Re: Stus-List set screws

2017-06-11 Thread sender via CnC-List
If the coupling is still easily removable, I'd say take it out of the boat
and clean the threads on it thoroughly with brake cleaner, the jack bolts
too, and then re-assemble them with lots of blue Locktite 242. Then torque
them to the correct spec for the type of bolt.

Since the brake cleaning spray makes a lot of flammable vapor, you'd need
to think of another way to remove grease film from the coupler if it has to
stay in the boat.  The new coupling will almost certainly have oil residue
left over from manufacturing when the tap threaded the hole.

When used on clean, clean, clean threads blue Locktite will be stronger
than the wire method.   Don't use red Locktite, it's considered permanent
and you may break the bolt trying to take it off.

Look at the head of the bolt.  if it's plain, it's a grade 2, if it has 3
dashes, it's grade 5. if it has 6 dashes, it's a grade 8.  Go online and
get the maximum "lubricated" torque value for your size bolt and torque
them to the exact value.

Re: Stus-List How are the reefing lines run on a 33-2

2017-06-11 Thread RANDY via CnC-List
On my 30-1 I've got a jam cleat on the starboard side of the mast for the 
cunningham. It runs down from the cunningham cringle in the sail, through a 
cheek block at the base of the mast, then back up to the jam cleat. So the jam 
cleat prevents the tail from being pulled down. 

I've got two reef points each rigged for single-line slab reefing. The reefing 
lines run from boom port side D-rings up through the reef point clews, down 
through boom starboard-side cheek blocks, then forward to a mast-mounted double 
swivel block below the gooseneck, then up the starboard side through the reef 
point tacks, then down the port side to small cam cleats on the mast. I don't 
currently have reef hooks, so I have to "move" the tack shackle to the reef 
point tack when reefing, and back to the normal tack when unreefing. 

Cheers,

I cant seem to figure it out. I have a jam cleat on the starboard side of the 
mast the stops a line from being pulled towards the deck (is this part of it?). 
I'm stumped

Re: Stus-List 33-2 question where does the hose in the bottom of the ice box drain to?

2017-06-11 Thread Dave via CnC-List
Good thing the brackets are still there.   You know, I will need to look at the 
boat to determine what the valves are for, I really don't know though I would 
assume to isolate the hot water tank.
I hope you got out for a sail today - fantastic conditions a few miles out, 
windstar was flying.

Re: Stus-List How are the reefing lines run on a 33-2

Thanks. When I looked closer this afternoon is saw the ram's horn :) so I 
captured the cringle on the rams horn and used the in boom lines to bring down 
the clew. A friend suggested the jam cleat might be to secure the baby stay 
adjuster which looked as though it might be correct or perhaps for a cunningham.

Thanks all

Stus-List set screws

2017-06-11 Thread William Walker via CnC-List
All,
  I replaced prop shaft and coupler this spring.  Shaft is seated in coupler 
and two square head, drilled, cup pointed bolts go into dimples in shaft..i 
know that proper technique is to properly safety wire the bolts through drilled 
heads so can't come loose.  But, when seated the drilled holes in bolt heads 
are perpendicular to coupler and there is absolutely no room to properly safety 
wire these..
I could remove bolts, drill opposite faces of bolt, reinstall and safety wire, 
BUT, I was thinking of getting proper size cup head set screws instead and 
stacking two in the coupler to lock them instead.
Thoughts..

And from the mast end at the boom, up through the cringle, and back down to 
the boom where it is secured with a bowline.  Loose footed main facilitates 
this.
