Stus-List Rental Inquiry

2018-01-31 Thread ALAN BERGEN via CnC-List
I apologize in advance for using this list for a non-boating inquiry.  My
son is moving to Southern California in February, and is trying to find a
house or apartment to rent in Irvine, Tustin or Santa Ana.  If anyone knows
of something that might be in one of those cities, please contact me off
list.

Re: Stus-List Adding asym sail/sprit to C 36

2018-01-31 Thread Eric Baumes via CnC-List
Depends on the locality.

E.g. HRYRA (Hudson River) and YRALIS (Long Island Sound) only allow one
cert per boat, and one change to the cert per year. I believe this was to
discourage to using a different cert for different conditions. E.g. declare
a 155% for summer and light wind and declare a smaller headsail for fall
and heavier wind.

PHRF-NB (Narraganset Bay) allows more than one cert per boat. But I am not
sure for what conditions they allow it.

Re: Stus-List Vented loop for engine above exhaust elbow?

2018-01-31 Thread Rick Brass via CnC-List
Patrick;

 

The PO installed the new Universal M35B using the basic exhaust elbow available 
from Westerbeke instead of a riser, which put the high point of the exhaust 6 
to 8 inches above the waterline, to port of the centerline of the boat. Because 
of the geography aft of the engine on a 38 MK2, the horizontal Hydra Hush 
muffler was installed on the starboard side of the transmission, near the 
waterline. That gave an angle of 30 degrees or less from horizontal to the hose 
that crossed from the exhaust elbow to the muffler (behind the heat exchanger). 
Aft of the muffler the 2” hose from the exhaust was reduced to the original 1 
½” hose used on the original A4 (increasing back pressure and probably 
resulting in more water staying in the muffler) and the hose was just laid in 
the bilge on the way back to the original 1 ½” through hull in the transom – 
maybe 8” to 10” above the water line and less so when the boat squatted under 
power. 

 

So the high point of the system was pretty much the exhaust through hull and 
the hose was undersized, but apparently adequate. When under power the exhaust 
sprayed out of the through hull like a rooster tail; I corrected that with a 
rubber elbow that redirected the spray downward, but didn’t really think about 
why it was happening. 

 

In retrospect, when the engine was shut off all the water in the hose aft of 
the muffler drained back into the muffler. Then when sailing with high port 
heel, the water drained back from the muffler to the exhaust manifold. So long 
as I started the engine after sailing (which is normal) the exhaust pressure 
cleared the water out of the manifold. That arrangement worked for 5 years and 
about 400 engine hours, until I put the boat into a slip without the engine, 
and left it sit for a couple of months. That let the water in the manifold seep 
into the cylinders and rust the rings to the cylinder walls.

 

The replacement system is what Westerbeke/Universal recommends in the 
installation manual – and a bit more when space permitted. After 9 years and 
about 900 hours no problems so far – and I don’t need to put up with the 
rooster tail getting the cockpit wet when motoring downwind.

Rick, that's the sort of nightmare story I'm hoping to avoid! When you say 
corners were cut "on the exhaust elbow, hose routing, and the siphon break" do 
you mean the prior engine had those things installed in a poor manner, or that 
a siphon break wasn't installed?

That is in place of a standard spin and pole. If you declare both Asym on
sprit and Symmetrical on pole you will get a PHRF penalty.

Re: Stus-List Adding asym sail/sprit to C 36

2018-01-31 Thread Matthew L. Wolford via CnC-List
At the suggestion of a friend who successfully raced a J 35 for years, I 
bought an assym for my 42.  I did not retrofit a bow sprit, but instead we 
set the pole low and nearly against the forestay.  We fly the sail from 
about 60 to 110 degrees apparent -- below 110 it is obviously the wrong 
sail.  On our big, old 42, we don't sail downwind polars.  We tend to stay 
on the rhumb line going downhill, which means we go to a regular chute when 
the apparent wind is below 110 degrees.  Also, we don't race in the 
spinnaker fleet a lot, and when we do it is typically distance races.  As a 
result, we don't need to jibe the assym.  My impression is that it has been 
a good addition to the inventory.


FWIW, when I visited Rocky River, OH, over the summer, I noticed a lot of 
boats with retrofitted bow sprits.

Difficulties in finding enough crew to fly my masthead kite (~7-8) have me 
thinking of adding a sprit with asym kite to make it possible to be 
competitive in the spin fleet with less crew (~ 4-6). I only had   6 for our 
last race and the wind was 10-15 so we decided to forego the kite and took a

the asym if I don't have enough crew to do the symm Masthead kite so I would 
likely keep the asym size such that my rating is not changed. Thoughts on 
this plan from the list would be appreciated.
I do realize that this is a complicated issue and I may have to get some 
expert advice on sprit length, asym sail size/shape not to mention figuring 
out how to fly it but I am starting with the collective list wisdom.

Hi Eric

When you say YRALIS allows 24% with no penalty is that in addition to a 
standard spin pole and Symmetric spinnaker or in place of the standard 
pole/spin?

Hi,

I did this a few years ago on my 34/36+ Brief write up here 
http://svheesoo.com/content/bowsprint-retro-fit-project

Here is the pertinent information on sizing.


PHRF Regulations

The YRALIS allows for a retrofit bowsprit to be 24% of J without penalty for 
Windward/Leward racing. For distance racing it asseses a -6 second penalty.

To support an unsupported length of ~52 inches, the Selden Selden 99mm Aluminum 
Bowsprit Kit - 10.4 Ft. was required. The 52 inches is comprised of the 42 in 
beyond the forestay allowed by PHRF plus the forward ring was mounted 
approximately 10" behind the forestay on the deck.

If you have the same Harken furler and bow roller there is just enough room.

This is something you can DIY.

The uncut sprit was just over the limit for UPS so I had them cut it to avoid 
the freight charge.

Let me know if you have any questions.
