Try Kroil comes in Orange can. We use it in frozen bolts on turbine engines. I 
had some frozen turn buckles on Rebecca Leah, sprayed and let soak for 3 days 
and was able to free them up. I won't use any other penetrant. Also you may 
want to use a good anti seize for reassembly.

Hi Marek
Tall ships were in Lunenburg 8-12 Aug and Folk Harbour festival  and dory
races too we were anchored and living onboard in Lunenburg front harbour
during the festivities which were excellent. I agree with others on Mahone
Bay I grew up there and also Lunenburg and Ovens park, Shellburne and
beaches along the shore like Crescent Beach, White Point and
Sommerville. Sailing Mahone Bay is really nice and Chester Race week was on
this past week you can check that event online and even though the races
will be over the village of Chester is worth some time. St. Margaret's Bay
which is known for good sailing and where I live now is just 30 km from
Halifax on the way to Mahone Bay. Peggy's Cove is at the eastern entrance
to St. Margaret's and a day sail trip from here. If weather permits and you
have some time to spare I can offer you an afternoon of saling the Bay on
Alianna. Give me a call at 902 449 5920 and we can set something up.
Wishing you a nice vacation on the south shore
Dwight

These are helpful, we’re also planning a trip to Nova Scotia next month.  My 
crew signaled mutiny if I took our boat so it’s the ferry from Portland to 
Yarmouth.  I’m hoping the weather is good for putting the top down on my wife’s

Marek - I happen to have a summer home in Shelburne NS, (since the 90s) and 
know the area quite well. To add to Dan's comments, there is lots to do on the 
low-key south shore.  Lunenburg, mahone bay, peggy's cove are the tourists' 
staples but also consider Keji seaside adjunct, some amazing beaches - Roseway, 
Carters, others,  Drive out to Cape Sable Island.   A bit of a hike but if you 
can go whale watching from Brier island (birthplace of Josh Slocum) you will 
likely have an amazing experience.   Also Shelburne is worth a day, check out 
the small museums, (incl some boatbuilding stuff) events at the Osprey Arts 
Centre and reserve for dinner at Charlotte lane.   Visiting the smaller towns 
gives you a more authentic sense of things - always take a moment to visit the 
fisherman's memorials, Check the dates, surnames, 1929 as an example - conveys 
how these communities were and are very integrated with the sea.Just 
driving the "old highway" will bring you to some spectacular places.   

 

Contact me off list if any questions.

Any ideas would be welcome.

Re: Stus-List Frozen turn buckles

2017-08-19 Thread Danny Haughey via CnC-List 
The thing is, if you don't know the rig's age, you should be replacing it.  The 
general rule for standing rigging is to replace every 10 to 15 years.  If yours 
is frozen, chances are is original.  Replace and reset the clock so you know 
how old the rigs is. 
On my first two boats, I just swapped out the rig all at once.  on the current 
boat, I'm swapping out in increments.  It much heavier and much more expensive. 
 
Of course, my mast comes down every year so its no extra to spread the 
replacement out. 
You can either drive your rigging to rigging only in Fairhaven ma.  Or mail it 
to them for a very reasonable replacement cost.

Re: Stus-List Frozen turn buckles

2017-08-19 Thread PETER OCAMPO via CnC-List 
Thanks for the info  will try liquid wrench first  have about 6 weeks to try 
that  

Hope it's not a full cold weld that does not sound exciting

Re: Stus-List Battery/Wiring Problem?

2017-08-19 Thread David Knecht via CnC-List 
When I wired the Add-a-battery switch this spring, I found that there was the 
main heavy red cable that ran from the switch to the panel and five individual 
wire ring terminals (I think added by the PO) all attached to the output post.  
I wired them all to the Add-a-battery house output post since I did not know 
what they all did.  When I was testing the power draw last week, I took all 5 
off (which I now know to be the automatic bilge pump, battery 2 voltmeter, tank 
monitor and two others as yet unidentified) leaving only the heavy red cable 
running to the panel and still found the 100mA draw.  Everything on the panel 
was off including the voltmeter.  So I am guessing that something in the panel 
is wired directly so it bypasses the panel circuit breakers. Perhaps I will 
trace all the circuits next spring to try to find it, but for now, I am not 
going to worry about it since it will only be happening when the switch is on 
and there are far larger loads to worry about.  Dave

Re: Stus-List Southern Nova Scotia

2017-08-19 Thread Dave S via CnC-List 
Marek - I happen to have a summer home in Shelburne NS, (since the 90s) and
know the area quite well. To add to Dan's comments, there is lots to do on
the low-key south shore.  Lunenburg, mahone bay, peggy's cove are the
tourists' staples but also consider Keji seaside adjunct, some amazing
beaches - Roseway, Carters, others,  Drive out to Cape Sable Island.   A
bit of a hike but if you can go whale watching from Brier island
(birthplace of Josh Slocum) you will likely have an amazing experience.
Also Shelburne is worth a day, check out the small museums, (incl some
boatbuilding stuff) events at the Osprey Arts Centre and reserve for dinner
at Charlotte lane.   Visiting the smaller towns gives you a more authentic
sense of things - always take a moment to visit the fisherman's memorials,
Check the dates, surnames, 1929 as an example - conveys how these
communities were and are very integrated with the sea.Just driving the
"old highway" will bring you to some spectacular places.

Contact me off list if any questions.

Don't miss Mahone Bay.

Mahone Bay is a joy, but old town Lunenburg has lots of good food, shops,
museums and history to check out. You will want to see "The Ovens" - look
it up on google. It's not far from there and should not be missed. If
you've got the time you could check out some local beaches or go into
LaHave on the light house route. Airbnb has some really good deals around
there worth checking out. Have Fun!!
