Stus-List Backstay adjuster- is there too much of a good thing?
I have a split backstay with a car that pulls the two arms together to tighten the forestay. I am in the process of fine tuning the rig and as the last step will adjust the turnbuckles on the backstays to set a neutral (backstay off) position. My question is, do I have to worry about the possibility of setting it up so that I can apply too much tension through the backstay? In other words, is it possible to do damage to the rig by applying too much backstay? If so, how would I know what is too much?

Re: Stus-List Hasps
The Perko hasp on my companionway hatch disintegrated and I was going to replace it with stainless but had trouble finding one the right length. All Westmarine had were shorter ones, and that was mostly what I found online as well. Eventually I stumbled on an exact replacement and ordered that. Not interested in drilling new holes either. Mine, the original and the new replacement, appear to be chrome plated zinc alloy. Certainly not bronze.

Re: Stus-List Drywall sander
Digging a little more, I see there is a Full Circle pad, https://www.amazon.com/Full-Circle-International-R360-Interchangeable/dp/B000WQL5CO?th=1 that is not supposed to flip. Also offered as a flex air tool, with a hose to suck the dust, but then I am up to $140. I can’t believe that I can’t find even one YouTube Video with someone using one of these power drywall sanders – And now to buy one, delivery isn’t until June.

I also use the drywall sander on a stick and once it is against the surface it does not flip over any longer. Is great for a light wet sand after applying new coat of bottom paint.

And it was sure a lot easier than holding a sander over my head. And that crocus cloth material for sanding really holds up well and doesn't gum up. But the pad kept flipping over and was annoying at times . And I was wondering if there was a more professional pad, so I googled, and found rotary Sanders with vacuum. Does anyone know anyone using something like this? https://www.all-wall.com/Categories/Porter-Cable-Sander-Pro-Packs/Porter-Cable-Drywall-Sander.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-r71BRDuARIsAB7i_QOr7GremTf5Gg_bJREva54MMWijKE2TqJHv47VHFN1WRojtsSKUR78aAnq2EALw_wcB Bill Coleman ___ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions.

Re: Stus-List Replace Hot water heater
Oh. Well I'm sorry to hear that. I guess you would have to go into bypass, or you would lose your engine coolant and overheat! It does indeed look like a new hot water tank is in your future.

Re: Stus-List iPhone Tactiqs app
I've have installed iRegatta Pro on my iPad although use us only occasionally. I feed it with instrument data over WiFi from a nmea200/nmea0183 to TCP hub. iRegatta has various screens in addition to those which are more racing specific - instrument Gui screens, AIS radar-like screen. It also builds realtime polar charts for your boat as you sail.
