Patrick:

In all likelihood, the 1988 C 44 you are looking at was built in 
Niagara on the Lake, Ont. Canada.


The Middleton, Rhode Island plant closed in November 1985.

Hello,

I'm in the process of purchasing a 1988 C 44 and my customs
broker is giving me a hard time about its place of
manufacturing. As far as I can tell, all C 44s after the
prototype were built in Middletown, Rhode Island. Does anyone
know how I can prove this to the broker?

Thanks so much,

The HIN on the transom or inside a locker should tell you where the boat 
was built.


CCY is the Rhode Island 
 plant

ZCC is the Niagara on the Lake plant.

Hi Chuck,

Thanks for the quick response. The customs broker claims the HIN just states 
the manufacturer and not actual place of origin. I personally think they're 
being a bit too onery about all this. I'm hoping for a manual or brochure that 
says something like "proudly built in Canada/US"

Re: Stus-List Diesel engine fire-I chose a Halon ext for my engine

2019-06-02 Thread Russ & Melody via CnC-List



I too think the Halon auto is the best choice but 
last time I tried, could not be purchased new in 
Canada due to damaging effects to ozone layer (or 
some other SJW concern). Older ones could still be refilled a few years ago.


The best non-residue solution is probably CO2 and 
the little port, as discussed.


I bought one of these little puppies:
http://www.elidefire.eu.com/
Figuring "what the hell" as a back-up it cannot 
hurt too much. Position it high & aft in the 
engine compartment. Looks like a slight residual powder may be left behind.


Don't discount the possibility of a diesel fire 
when there is pressurized fuel line(s) near high temperature exhaust surface.
Gargle "steam turbine oil fires" to see what a 
hot metal temperature and lube oil will do.

I am not certain if they are readily available

Re: Stus-List Galvanic Isolators

2019-06-02 Thread Dreuge via CnC-List


I would not spend much money on a galvanic isolator (GI).The main cause of 
the galvanic corrosion is a result of connecting the AC and DC grounds.  Check 
if you have these grounds connected. Most older and smaller vessels don’t 
have the grounds connected and don’t have galvanic corrosion problem.  Also, 
the industry is moving away from this requirement.

One is better off investing in a whole vessel GFCI breaker(also called an ELCI 
Main Circuit Breaker).   These cost much less than a typical fail-safe GI and 
provide galvanic isolation from stray AC currents by disconnecting the power, 
and more importantly they provide much better ground fault protection than 
connecting AC & DC grounds.  

If one still prefers bonding the AC & DC grounds then I would recommend the 
Yandina GI or better, a DYI GI,  and connect the GI between the AC to DC 
connection to provide a fail-safe connection.

I have a write up on my blog about this and also how to make a DYI GI, but in 
short, don’t waste money on an expensive GI, invest your money in an ELCI 
breaker, individual GFCI circuit protectors, and a decent marine charger (not a 
cheap HF/Walmart/Amazon brand )

Good suggestion on the automatic, Len.  It looks like a small automatic is 
actually less expensive than a small manual (at least what Defender sells).  
Now I have to figure out if there is a place to mount it inside the engine 
compartment. I have soundproofing material all around so taht presents a 
problem plus there is not much accessible mounting surface that is not 
occupied.  I will report back on what I end up doing.  Dave

Jon,


You could say it’s around the corner, but only if you are talking on a 
country-wide scale. This summer, the Enterprise will be moving to a slip at the 
Venice Yacht Club in Venice, FL — In fact, fellow lister Captain Rick Brass is 
working up a
 full plan and quote to bring her down. 


My business and residence will also be moving to southern Sarasota. You could 
say it has been an eventful winter around here. 


So, the Enterprise will travel over 1,300 miles to continue the voyages she has 
begun, seeking out strange new marinas and southern Florida civilizations, 
boldly going where no man, or no one, has gone before. 


Aside from Bruce’s C 37+ and a few others I know about, there’s not a whole 
lot of C action in the Gulf area, but maybe others will one day follow us to 
also live where others vacation. There is something VERY satisfying in knowing 
that last
 October was the last time I’ll winterize my engine and that I won’t really 
need to haul the boat again for at least a few years, then only to slap some 
new paint on the bottom and then go back sailing again. 


I’d love to get a Rendezvous together for late June or something like that in 
the LI Sound area — stay tuned for that. 






All the best,


Edd

Re: Stus-List Diesel engine fire?

When installing between the companionway steps be sure you situate it so the 
fire extinguisher can get between the steps and the nozzle  is at the port.

They are pretty inexpensive.  $9.99 at Defender.  They generally have a clear 
window which lets you see inside the engine compartment to see if you have a 
fire, and you can then poke a fire extinguisher into the engine compartment 
through the pot and put the fire out without opening the compartment and 
letting in lots more air which would likely just make a fire worse.

The side panel of the engine compartment would be a good place I'd think.  Or 
between the companionway steps.

Stus-List Diesel engine fire

2019-06-02 Thread Len Mitchell via CnC-List
David, if you must provide an extinguisher specifically for the engine 
compartment, I would look at something like a Fireboy automatic discharge 
extinguisher. They use a “clean” product and it’s activated by a sprinkler head 
type device activated by a specific temperature of 175F. There are other brands 
too and they can all be mounted inside the engine compartment with no fire port 
required. I have never tried one but probably should, the electrical components 
in the engine compartment are my concern not the diesel. It looks like 25 cubic 
feet for just less than $200 if that helps.

Re: Stus-List Diesel engine fire?

2019-06-02 Thread Edd Schillay via CnC-List
David,

I have not installed one yet, but have it on my project list. I think the best 
place is on one of your side access panels — should be able to extinguish the 
whole engine from there. 

Note that while diesel fuel is not flammable, it does have a flashpoint. 

Nevertheless, the real risk is an electrical fire. High amps plus vibration can 
sometimes yield bad results. 

All the best, 

Edd

Re: Stus-List Diesel engine fire?

2019-06-02 Thread David Risch via CnC-List
On my 1981 40 I installed a fire port (hidden behind companionway steps) for 
the possibility from fire not so much from diesel (highly unlikely) but from 
electrical wiring.

I have a bilge counter on my primary (1000 gph) pump and an alarm on my 
secondary (3000 gph) pump.  The float alarm is set higher up and will only go 
off if we are taking on water that the primary cannot handle.   Has not 
happened yet but it  makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

To me the bilge counter is very important to determine a problem that may have 
occurred whilst gone.

Dave,

The fire port is something that is appearing on new boats, especially those 
made in Europe. Not sure that all insurance companies would call for it with a 
Diesel engine, but you “got to do what you gotta do” .

That all said, the port is small, typically less than 1 & 1/2 inch in diameter. 
 Often located between the steps or on the side of the engine area depending.

Stus-List Diesel engine fire?

2019-06-02 Thread David Knecht via CnC-List
I had an insurance survey done recently and the surveyor made several 
recommendations that were surprsing to me and which the insurance company is 
now expecting to be done:

1.Install a fire port on the engine compartment and a no residue extinguisher 
nearby.  I have never heard of this and the purchase survey done a few years 
early did not mention it.  It is not terribly expensive, but I can’t find a 
reasonable place to install the fire port.  One of the reasons I made sure to 
get a diesel engine was I thought that fire was not a significant risk with 
diesel fuel.  Does anyone else have this on their boat and is this a worthwhile 
safety upgrade?

2.  Install a high water alarm.  This seems to me to be overkill given the size 
of the boat and the fact that it is pretty much impossible to be trapped below 
water line in the event of a serious leak.  I also have an automatic bilge pump 
switch, so that would alert me if water were coming up to the floor boards.  
Has anyone else installed an alarm?

Thanks- Dave

Unless you are going around Hatteras, maybe we can have a C NC get together 
as you come through. Maybe Belhaven or preferably Beaufort.

Jon,

You could say it’s around the corner, but only if you are talking on a 
country-wide scale. This summer, the Enterprise will be moving to a slip at the 
Venice Yacht Club in Venice, FL — In fact, fellow lister Captain Rick Brass is 
working up a full plan and quote to bring her down.

My business and residence will also be moving to southern Sarasota. You could 
say it has been an eventful winter around here.

So, the Enterprise will travel over 1,300 miles to continue the voyages she has 
begun, seeking out strange new marinas and southern Florida civilizations, 
boldly going where no man, or no one, has gone before.

Aside from Bruce’s C 37+ and a few others I know about, there’s not a whole 
lot of C action in the Gulf area, but maybe others will one day follow us to 
also live where others vacation. There is something VERY satisfying in knowing 
that last October was the last time I’ll winterize my engine and that I won’t 
really need to haul the boat again for at least a few years, then only to slap 
some new paint on the bottom and then go back sailing again.

I’d love to get a Rendezvous together for late June or something like that in 
the LI Sound area — stay tuned for that.


All the best,

Edd
