Guess you do qualify under combination (2).  

4. VISUAL DISTRESS SIGNALS - Recreational boats 16 feet and over used on 
coastal waters or the Great Lakes are required to carry a minimum of either (1) 
3 day and 3 night pyrotechnic devices (like flares), (2) one day 
non-pyrotechnic device (flag) and one night non-pyrotechnic device (auto SOS 
light) or (3) a combination of (1) and (2)

I carry the flag also, but doubt anybody would react to seeing that.

Mine says USCG approved nightime beacon. We all carry loads of outdated flares.

I believe the new electronic flares are acceptable as long as it carries the 
USCG approval stamp.  Of course that is the most expensive one available

Stus-List Corroded Centerboard Pendant Tube 1981 36-1

2022-03-29 Thread Tim Rutherford via CnC-List 
 Looking for experience on procurement and replacement of the Centerboard
Pendant Tube (or whatever it's called) on 1981 C 36-1. This one shows
signs of corrosion and pinhole weeping on the aft facing part of the lower
radius. Is this common?

Going through the list of sources for drawings (Marine Museum, South Shore
Yachts) as a starting point. Likely will have a replacement fabricated
locally and schedule haul out once materials and dimensions are known.

Vessel: 1981 C 36-1 KCB
HIN: ZCC36244M81H (36-1 #244)
C Design Drawings Prefix: 76-6-NN

After a thorough scrubbing and cleaning of old residue try Penetrol coating.  
It was originally designed tor coating the inside of gas pipelines to stop them 
from corroding. The gelcoat has to be clean or it will film over any residue or 
oxidation. They make a Marine version but the lumber store product is pretty 
much or the same product. Safe on fibreglass just due prep work.
Good luck.james

The electronic flares that flash SOS are acceptable replacements. You don't
have to carry pyrotechnic flares if you have an electronic one. You do need
a daytime signal such as a flag, since the laser flares are difficult to
see during the day.
