Re: Stus-List set screws
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
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.

Stus-List Job and spinnaker sheets
We have 2 sets of jib track on Pulse, a short set inboard and a standard set, both ending abut the same place. The long set lines up nicely with the turning blocks, and the sheets feed nicely to either set of winches. The inboard set wrap badly when grinding and don't feed well to the turning blocks. Does anyone have a second set and how do you rig? They may work better with a smaller jib? Do you use lazyguys when flying your spinnaker? Where do you rig snatchblocks? Does anyone have a rigging diagram? Dont see anything in my C owners manual, and the gentleman we bought from wasn't a wealth of knowledge.

Re: Stus-List 33-2 question where does the hose in the bottom of the ice box drain to?
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. Dave. Sent from my iPad > On Jun 11, 2017, at 7:24 PM, Doug Welchwrote: > > Thanks Dave.

Thanks Dave. I have the hose coming from the ice box and the clamps where the pump was affixed to the side, so I suspect my was plumbed the same way and I just have to replace the pump.

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.

Stus-List set screws
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.

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