Re: Stus-List Rendezvous roll call

[Russ & Melody via CnC-List]

Hi Lee,

Melody & I missed you the many years that you did 
not come to the rendezvous. The early years we met with you were brilliant.


But you might wish to revisit the stats on your 
"2012' blog entry. 845  mile trip?? Seattle at 
47.6N and Thetis at just below the "49" suggests 
you really really strayed. Or nice cruise.


Cheers, Russ

Re: Stus-List 35-3 Asym Conversion

[Bruno Lachance via CnC-List]

Hi, i installed an asym kit on my 33-2few years ago: big running asym, a selden 
bowsprit, facnor furler and yes, I installed the crane/bail on the mast. If you 
choose to go with a furler, you will need that clearance for the top swivel. It 
gets crowded up there with the jib furled. My boat is a 1987 with a mast made 
by Offshore, I ordered the spinnaker mast bail from them.

The furler is safe tu use singlehanded, but slow and expensive. A good sock 
would be my choice because it is faster for racing short handed.

Love the bowsprit!

Yes, I added an aluminum plate on the top of the mast to get the spin halyards 
out past the forestay.  I also fly only Asyms.   For the longer distance races 
I sail I wouldn’t go back to sym.  Simple, fast and less crew needed.

I don’t use a top down furler so can’t help you there.   From those that I know 
that do, a sock has same reliability and a lot cheaper.

If racing, check with you local rating officials to make sure you understand 
the adjustments that will be applied.

Hope that helps.

Subject: Stus-List 35-3 Asym Conversion

Hello Folks,

I'm considering simplifying things on my 35-3 and changing to an asymmetrical 
system. I'm interested in any information from folks here that have done a 
similar conversion: positives, negatives, cautionary tales?

One thing I'm concerned about is that my mast does not have a crane, the 
spinnaker halyards exit right next to the genoa halyard. If I add a top-down 
furler I'm nervous everthing is gonna get a bit congested. Have any of you 
added a masthead crane to move the halyards out a bit?

Thanks in advance,
Luke

Try Rig Rite:   https://www.rigrite.com/Spars/SparParts/MH_Spinnaker_bails.php 
  They should

You can always just try it before mounting the antenna.
I never had the dodger block a GPS signal.

Anybody know of a way to persuade spider from building webs attached to my wind 
transducers.
If I have to climb the mast, I only want to do it once. Maybe there is a 
repellent or something to spray up there that won't wash away at the next rain. 
For awhile it was just the speed transducer and a good blow would break it 
free. Now the other day my direction indicator was stuck until I did a few 
gybes and tacks.
