Re: Stus-List Windows laptop for chartplotter?

2015-09-09 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
A little bit of thread drift; I just installed a Raymarine e7D
plotter/radar on Peregrine. I got it on sale at Defender for way less than
$2K, including the radar antenna and wires. Just did a very foggy cruise to
Grand Manan Island in New Brunswick and the whole unit worked a treat. One
of the best features is that it transmits a wifi signal that I can get on
my iPad so I can check my position from my bunk; this is really handy when
I'm anchored and worried about dragging in the middle of the night.

If it's a good chute, you may want to avoid harsh chemicals. Sailmakers I know

Re: Stus-List Reporting when entering Canadian waters

I just entered Canada with a phone call from Grand Manan. Coming back we 
entered the U.S. In Eastport, ME and met the most delightful CBP officer there. 
No hassles at all but a wonderful 45 minute conversation in his office about 
all manner of things. It was of many highlights of our recent cruise.

Re: Stus-List C 37 question

2015-09-03 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
It is very like the 40 inside, but fewer concession to the rating rule, IOR, in 
the hull design (and sail plan, I think).
One thing I liked about the interior of the 37 was the drop down electronics 
mount over the nav station. And less interior teak. Ok, two things. And the 
bigger sink in the head...I'll start again. The three things I like better...

 The problem with the STAR is that it has a PHRF rating based on it’s 
 full-sailing capability which works against other boats racing with spinnaker 
 (their full-sailing capability), even though it does not have a spinnaker. 
 
 There is no good way to rate a STAR when competing against non-spinnaker 
 boats. 
 
 For example, the Enterprise rates 96 in a spinnaker division and rates 96 in 
 a non-spinnaker division. That does not mean I can be competitive not raising 
 my chute in a spinnaker division. The rating assumes everyone is on equal 
 ground.

 What do your folks rate a Star? We only have one Wednesday night race where 
 the fleets are combined, so usually they race one design - windward/leeward 
 - which is what they like. But on that single race, our guys rate them at 
 162, which seems to be somewhat correct. And, we race in light wind and flat 
 water, which favors them. The rest of the combined fleet ranges from a J-105 
 at 87 to a Cal 2-27 at 213.

The paddle wheel should turn easily when you blow on it. If it doesn't then you

 Joe,
 I had the same symptoms with my knotmeter last week. The boat had been unused 
 for several weeks with the bung installed. I installed the transducer(s) 
 before leaving the dock and the knotmeter read zero until we had covered 
 about 5 miles when it started reading correctly. I assumed there was a 
 build-up of growth in front of the paddlewheel, and it performed fine for the 
 rest of the trip.

 airbnb has some closer options but nothing under 150$ a night for a room in

Re: Stus-List Heaving-to - sail ratios for higher winds

2015-08-14 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
Fred's right. Larry Pardey describes it as a slick that helps mitigate the
waves breaking over the boat. His Storm Tactics is an excellent read.
Bear in mind that heaving to isn't just for storms or reefing. if we want
to have a nice sit down dinner, even in light airs, we will heave to. And
remind me to tell you how I learned to heave to on my dad's CC 27 and the
red-haired girl who provided the incentive...

 Paul — from Sail Online:

 When a sailboat is set in a heave to position, she slows down
 considerably and keeps moving forward at about 1 to 2 kts, but with a
 significant amount of drift. The drift creates some turbulence on the
 water, and that disturbance decreases significantly the sea aggressiveness.


 This was always my understanding, and has been my experience on my 30mkI

Re: Stus-List Heaving-to - sail ratios for higher winds

2015-08-13 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
Really, when you're hove to, you're pointing about 60 degrees off the wind and 
your COG is about 90 degrees to the breeze. How hard you have the main sheeted 
controls your angle to the breeze. I will roll most of the jib in big 
breeze...leaving as little as 10 or 20% out. 
Coming home to New England in the spring, it is often difficult to get more 
than a three-day window for a four-day trip, so I will leave Bermuda about a 
day before a front is due and sail north until the breeze shifts and the waves 
get too big, at which point I will heave to and wait for the wind to shift; 
usually about twelve hours.

 You basically turn up into the wind but don't release the headsail sheets.  
 Once the bow is through the wind turn the wheel back all the way and lock 
 it.  You are in effect now hove-to.  Now you can throw a float and focus on 
 the MOB.  The nice thing about this maneuver is that the boat will stop and

 Patrick,
 
 On Pegathy, also an LF38, I have never reefed the main. I have two reef 
 points, but I take it down, or just don't put it up. The boat sails very 
 well under jib alone, and I reef the roller furling jib in very high winds 
 - sailed from Martha's Vineyard to Natucket very comfortably in 40 knots 
 with jib alone reefed to 110%. That includes a very close reach into the 
 inlet. I have hove to in Pegathy with a full genoa, but not in high winds.
 
 My understanding is that when hove to, the boat should be going forward. 
 This makes sense, since if you're moving aft with the rudder to windward, 
 the boat will fall off, as you described. You must be going forward for the 
 rudder to have the desired effect. If you had the main too tight, you may 
 indeed have been moving aft. When hove to, the main needs to produce enough 
 drive to overcome the windage of the jib and still move the boat forward. 
 That also means there must be enough angle of attack for the keel to 
 produce lift. At least, that's how I understand it. I suggest the Lin's 
 book; Storm Tactics is the name, I think. Pretty thorough discussion of 
 heaving to and other ways to stay below safely in storms.
 
 BTW, I made my own slide gate out of 1/8 in. aluminum bar to make it easier 
 to get the main into the stack pack.

Re: Stus-List Yanmar engine mounts replacement

 Anyone have tips for replacing engine mounts on a Yanmar 3HM? In terms of
 the logistics, like how to prop up the engine, get the old mounts out, etc.

 I have the transmission out now for a rebuild (fwd clutch failed) so it's
 the perfect time to replace mounts. I'm just going to do the forward two
 (back end of v-drive engine) because those are the two the mechanical
 inspection (purchase survey at the start of this year) said were
 delaminating. Plus Gallery Marine in Seattle has two in stock, not four. If
 this goes easily maybe I'll consider replacing the aft two.

 I'm going to go with the OEM mounts instead of PYI since several online
 reviews said Yanmar OEMs were significantly better (and they look it too -
 a lot more rubber for vibration dampening). The engine vibrates a fair
 amount now, and a slight misalignment might be what caused the transmission
 premature wear.


 Copying a mail from Martin below in 2013 on the list. Martin, I'd be
 interested in hearing more if you still recall the work you did (even
 though your engine is a Perkins, so the mounts are different). What did you
 mean by the existing engine mount bolts didn't meet your standards? I'm
 ignorant of what the issue with lag and stripped threaded bolts is. I'm
 expecting the existing mounts may be hard to get out because the bolts/nuts
 look a bit rusted on.

 I saw your suggestion of a scissor jack, but I'm not sure where I would
 place that? The engine doesn't have super good flat surfaces between it and
 the hull. And the plates the mounts attach to look too small to fit a jack
 in. I've read that the mount nuts can just be used to raise the engine
 until its raised enough to slip the mounts out (block it with scrap wood at
 that point). Is that actually the best way? I have some pictures I could
 upload.

 Thanks! Hoping to do this project in the next two weeks, which is how long
 it will take Harbor Marine to get to the transmission. I thought boats knew
 not to break in the summer months, but I guess not!

 I replaced all 4 of Calypso's engine mounts (Perkins 4-108) a while back.  I 
 used the RD Engine Mounts offered by PYI, Inc.  As none of the existing 
 engine mount bolts met my standards ( a combo of lag and stripped threaded 
 bolts) the job became slightly more complex than imagined at the start.

 In 1970 Bruckmann's was laminating a steel plate on top of a wood base to 
 build up the engine support frames.  Once I understood what was under all the 
 fiberglass and paint I decided to drill and tap new bolt holes, using the 
 older ones if possible.

 The results when finished were worth the effort.  I did re-align the 
 engine/reduction gear to the prop shaft.  The engine vibration transmitted 
 through the hull was significantly reduced with the added benefit of being 
 confident that the engine would stay put if the boat broached or was knocked 
 down in a heavy sea.

 One of the least expensive tools to purchase that may help is a small scissor 
 jack to be used in holding the engine in place while changing the mounts. Let 
 me know if you want more info on how I approached the process, but there is 
 much already written about the topic available.

.  As it turn out there was debris in the fuel tank including an 
 old fuel gauge sender and some rubber gasket material that would get sucked 
 up and block the fuel intake.
  
 Years later I was helping a friend deliver his very nice fast cruising boat 
 from Seattle to San Francisco.  As we were rounding Cape Flattery in calm 
 weather the owner wanted to take the short cut inside Tatoosh Island. (If I 
 was a delivery skipper on someone else’s boat I would have gone around 
 Tatoosh on the outside.)  Naturally the filter plugged up and stalled the 
 engine in the middle of the narrow passage.  The current was not helping the 
 boat clear all the rocky areas.  There was some amount of “hurry up” 
 involved in returning the engine to full power.  I was to learn a little 
 later that the owner knew there was a lot of crud in the fuel (left over 
 from a So Pac cruise) and was planning on cleaning it out in San Francisco.  
 He did a lot of spare filters onboard and was fast at changing the filters.  
 He did have two Racors but they were not on a single manifold that would 
 allow continued fuel flow when switching filters.  We made it to San 
 Francisco in 4 days but he changed a lot of filters on calm days.

Why do you need to keep the engine running offshore while you change the

 If you price Racor's dual filter system, you'll faint.  However, you
 needn't install one of those or even a second filter identical to whatever
 you currently have.  You need only install a small inexpensive filter to
 keep the engine running while you change the element in your main primary
 filter and then switch back.

Re: Stus-List Securing seat locker

It's a Lewmar V-2 and I am mounting it on deck, just aft of the anchor
locker hatch, where there is just enough room. I did have to cut away my
staysail track for two screws. I am mounting it on deck rather than in the
locker as I want to be able to use it manually should I lose power. I will
be running a rode of 80' of 5/16 chain and 150' of 9/16 nylon 3-strand. The

 is pretty good, about 1.5” longitudinal.

 I’m weighing in the following options

 1.   Send to rigger and have him swage identical replacement (likely
 no sailing this weekend)

 2.   Get sta-lock or norseman terminals and swage it myself, I have
 spare ¼” wire rope.

 3.   Use some of the Dyneema SK78 7mm line I have to make a
 babystay.  Its 7200lbs and I originally bought it for my running backstays.



 A while back I added an inner forestay with ¼” wire rope, and running
 backstays so I have support at the second spreader, but if I leave it for
 the offseason, this crack will linger in the back of my mind every time I
 head out.

Stus-List Securing seat locker

Like most of us, I think about taking my boat offshore one day. One of my 4AM

in the way of gaskets to keep water out. If a wave filled the cockpit, as has

 We have been pooped before, but I don't remember if it caused an undo

 I was more worried about gasketing and securing the washboard.

Re: Stus-List Running Back Stays

2015-07-29 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
Racing CC 40s back when they were new, in the late 70s/early 80s, we used 
running backstays. They were used to do two things; stop the mast overbending 
when you had a lot of permanent backstay on and to stop the mast pumping when 
beating into a lumpy sea.
These days, another use for running backstays on many cruiser/racers (like 
Swans) is to tension an inner forestay on which a staysail is set. 
As an aside, what we always refer to as check stays is a second set of runners 
attached lower on the mast, usually on race boats with less...robust...rigs 
than ours. These again are mostly used to adjust the bend in the mast as the 
permanent backstay is tightened. The runners and checks control the shape of 
the main; it's not uncommon to invert the main if you don't have enough 
tension on the runners and checks when you max out the permanent.

 Persistence has check stays. We were concerned as you are when we were

 knots to stop mast from pumping. When light we disconnect and attach to 
 turnbuckles at shrouds.  I have a snap shackle to reconnect to blocks on 
 transom when wind comes up.  We also changed the lines in the blocks to 
 smaller diameter 60 Ft a side so that when using checks we let the line out 
 downwind rather than disconnecting.  These are not the pita we thought they 
 would be but do add one extra thing to do when in use.
 
 If all boats were swept back spreaders like cc99 and 115 we would not have 
 this discussion.

 Subject: Stus-List Running Back Stays
 
 Hi All,
 
 Looking at a 37/40XL and I know they have running back stays, anyone who has 
 them, are they a pain in the neck, or do you not use them all the time.  I am 
 not planning on doing much racing, mostly cruising.  I've heard of people on 
 other types of boats just removing them all together.
 
 Thanks,
 Scott

Re: Stus-List Best EngineYanmar 3GM + Prop?

2015-07-21 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
It sounds to me like you may be over-revving your engine. My rule of thumb
with my boat (same engine as you) and when I get on a boat I'm delivering,
is to get into open water and, in gear, push the throttle wide open. My
cruising RPM is no more than 75% of that number, which on Peregrine works
out to 2200 or so.

 John, Mike and any others with a Yanmar 3GM30F

 What is the make, diameter and pitch of your props, and can you get to the
 one hour rated RPM of 3600?

 Back in 2010 I had an engine overheat alarm and discovered the coolant
 overflow tank was full and had an amount of oily substance mixed in.  There
 was very little coolant left in the engine.  The mechanic discovered a
 blown
 head gasket was the cause.  The head was sent to a shop to be rebuilt and
 a few other parts replaced.

 Last month [just after Edd's engine woes came to light] I had another
 overheat alarm, and again discovered the coolant tank full and the same oil
 mix.  Am assuming the head gasket is blown - again.  The mechanic has not
 looked at it yet.  Obviously, something is wrong.

 The July edition of Cruising World had a timely article about props and
 stated an over pitched prop puts additional wear on the engine and can lead
 to cavitation.  Nothing new there but started a possible theory.  I have
 not
 had dark exhaust so did not think the prop was over-pitched, but there is
 some pitting on the prop blades so maybe there is cavitation and an over
 loaded engine.  Also have excessive vibration so the clues seem to be going
 in that direction.  I rarely take the engine up to 3000 RPM though did have
 a several hour delivery at 3200 this spring.  Have never tried but do not
 think I could get up to 3600.  [Have read the Yanmar tach's are not all
 that
 accurate and have not had the RPM's verified independently.]  Still this
 seems to be another indicator the prop may be over pitched.

 I originally had a Martec folding 16 D x 14 P prop though after the lack of
 much reverse led to a near miss incident I replaced it in 2002 with a
 Flex-O-Fold with a 16 D x 13 P at the recommendation of Flex o Fold.  The
 reduction is 2.61.  Am thinking the increased surface area Flex prop is
 overloading the engine even though the pitch was decreased by 1 compared
 to
 the Martec.

 Anyone have any thoughts?

 Thanks,
 Brian

 Our 34 has the Yanmar 3GM with Martec folding prop.  Clean bottom cruising
 is 5.5, max is about 6.  As I recall, your max speed is supposed to be
 about
 80% of theoretical hull speed with throttle wide open??  Another variable
 is
 the calibration of the knotometer and if using the GPS the impact of

  I often sail with a group of sailors that have more modern and

  my cruising speed is about 5-5.5 knots. I have an Atomic 4 engine. I'm

 On the way to and from our racing area, my Beta-25 with only 390 hours on it 
 was running fine and then it dies.
 
 It started up right away, ran for a few minutes then died again.
 
 We sailed out of the channel for about 10 minutes, started it up again with 
 no problems and it ran for 20-30 minutes before
 I shut it down for the race.
 
 On the way back we motored around loafing at about 4 knots for 30 minutes as 
 we headed for the channel back to the slip.
 
 Halfway in it died again. I used the electric fuel pump to be sure it was 
 'primed' and it started right up and then quit again after about
 30 seconds. 
 
 By then, we were close enough to the slip to sail in--kept the main up for 
 just such an event--which we did without issues (a competent crew
 of 6 can do that!).
 
 Ran it in the slip at full throttle and it died again after about 3 minutes. 
 Started tight up, ran again at full throttle and it died again.
 
 Fuel tank is only 3 hours into a full tank (48 gallons) and the pick-up tube 
 was replaced last year to go further down into the tank so neither
 the fuel level or pick-up tube level can be issues. I also added some 
 Stan-dyne (?) when I last filled the tank earlier this year.
 
 The Neuse River was almost flat since we had only a 5 knot breeze so I doubt 
 that it was 'stirred up' crud from the tank.
 
 Haven't replaced the fuel filter between the tank and the engine or the 
 engine mounted one this season (did it last year) so that is my first chore
 since IMHO it looks like a fuel issue or an air in the fuel line issue.
 
 I also will check all the clamps that are used to seal the fuel line from the 
 tank to the engine.
 
 Does the list have any other suggestions/ideas besides what I listed?

Re: Stus-List head question-lubrication

2015-07-16 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
I used to use olive oil, but my feeling now is that would leave a film on
top of the liquid in the holding tank, preventing air from getting at it,
which would result on a foul odor.
Perhaps one of the dedicated head lubes would be the ticket.

Re: Stus-List westerbeake sucking in air on a half tank

2015-07-10 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
You shouldn't have to do the injectors, just use the lift pump to get the air 
past the Racor and and out the top of the fuel filter on the engine and you 
should be fine. You may even be able to get away with just topping up the Racor 
after pumping for a bit. If there is a fuel shut off on top of the tank, close 
it and you may not have to do any bleeding.
By the way, I think I can see your boat from my mooring in Brenton Cove. Stop

 Petar — it might be that the fuel pickup tube is corroded, and either doesn’t 
 drop as far down into the fuel as it should/used to, or you have some pits in 
 it above the half-tank level that allow air it.  Sounds like time to pull and

 The first time I sailed and dropped a hook before bleeding the injectors.   
 Second time I added 5 gal jerry can and after bleeding injectors in 6 foot

Re: Stus-List Pacific Sea stories / Offshore fishing tips?

2015-06-18 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
We've had good luck with a cedar plug, too.
I think it's appropriate, given the direction of this thread, to mention that 
the difference between a sea story and a fairy tale is that one starts Once 
upon a time... And the other starts, Now, this is no shit...!

 On a delivery from Tonga to New Zealand we caught a 70lb yellow fin tuna.  
 The vodka trick came in handy.  That fish was particularly pissed off to 
 find itself winched up a backstay and being readied to be butchered into 
 football sized roasts.
  
 On the Tonga/NZ trip there were three avid fishermen on board with offshore 
 rods and reels.  My job was to sail the boat to keep the lines from the two 
 rods from getting under the boat (a 46’ Barnett custom).  The fishing line 
 was +-200lb test, the leader SS braid, the hook a big a** #3 treble, the 
 lures were squid like.  After several hours of landing mahi, wahoo, and 
 some sort of jack (some ½ eaten by the sharks) both rods sung out at the 
 same time.  The guys responsible for the rods were stuffing tennis shoes 
 into the reel area to help the brakes. After 20 minutes of fighting, we 
 landed the small tuna (the 70lb’r), the big one broke the line and got away.
  
 I will put together a short list of what worked for fishing from a racing 
 sailboat in the NE Pacific.  I claim no expertise but I have picked up a 
 few easy no-rod tricks that seemed to work between Hawaii and the US West 
 Coast.

 Andrew,
 
 Which CC 39 and year?  In the late 70's there was 4 or 5 active 39s racing 
 in the PNW.  Many of the crews would hang out together after racing and tell 
 sea stories.  The names Blackwatch and Mistress come to mind.  The 
 Midnight Special set a Vic Maui record for boats under 40' in either 74 or 
 76 under its original ownership, Steve Crary IIRC.
 
 I did a similar thing sailing a CC 39 (the Midnight Special under its 2nd 
 owner) sailing back to Seattle from a Transpac 77.  I dove over for a 
 baseball sized glass float.  I took the crew a few moments to drop the 
 spinnaker and turn around.  I could not see the boat for about 10 minutes but 
 I was young and a good swimmer.  We were +- 1,000 miles from dry land.
 
 I have 9 glass floats picked up while delivering boats back from Hawaii.  
 That baseball sized one is the smallest, the largest is the size of a small 
 beach ball.  My wife has them nicely displayed in our home.
 
 The bigger floats always had a beard of sea life hanging below the water's 
 surface.  The big float still had its netting attached which allowed extra 
 sea life to attach.  When I extended out from the deck to grab the float it 
 almost pulled me off the boat.  Another crew grabbed my legs allowing me to 
 hold onto the float until the boat slowed more.  I cut off the netting and 
 returned it to the sea.

 occasionally get away and were highly valued by sailors.
 
 They were reaching along with the kite up when my friend, who was driving, 
 and his watch mate saw one the size of a basketball. The watch mate tried to 
 grab it but missed. So he called man overboard! and jumped in after it. My 
 friend stopped the boat by going head to wind as the rest of the guys ran on

 Apparently the owner was quite impressed! :)

 Hi Andy,
 
 Thanks for the reply.  Are you talking about the lower tube where the post 
 goes into the glass tube and ultimately out the bottom, or the top of the 
 tube where it meets the cockpit floor?.  I put quite a bit of grease in the 
 lower fitting last year in a futile attempt to get rid of the squeak.  The 
 only thing that seems to help is getting some lube on the emergency tiller 
 bracket in my case.

 My 40 and the 41 I'm delivering south from St John, NB at the moment both 
 have grease fitting on the tube. These are packed with grease and you give 
 them a turn every now and then to lube the tube. Mine hadn't been done for 
 quite some time so it needed to be repacked twice before I was confident 
 there was enough grease in there. That eliminated the squeak for me.

I find my #3, about 110%, drives my 40 just fine for cruising and it's easy to 
tack and trim. I have an asymmetric in a sock for light airs off the wind. The

Using the topping lift makes the pole much easier to handle; it's like
having another set of hands. The topping lift makes the whole process much
easier from start to finish. I'm not sure it's clear in the article, but
the pole is attached to the sheet.

 Hi Andy- I see that you are using a topping lift, and that would solve the

 Topping lift means one more thing to mess with when setting up the pole.  I
 have not tried attaching the topping lift and haven’t even looked at how
 that would be done with the Forespar whisker pole.  I will play with that

Re: Stus-List Appropriate safety gear for a trip to Boston

2015-03-12 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
I would say a raft is an option if you have the dinghy. I would have an EPIRB. 
In that area rescue is going to be pretty quick if you need it. I would also 
have a waterproof handheld VHF handy so you can direct the search.
The best safety equipment you can get is the patience to await a good forecast. 
The worst thing is to have ANY kind of schedule.
Personally, I almost always got up the beach along the NJ coast, through NYC 
and then down Long Island sound. It's a nice ride, gives you lots of options if 
the weather goes sour, avoids drunk fishermen at night in the shipping lanes, 
and is only a few hours more distance.

 Dan,
 
 The inflatable is not safety equipment.  If you are going to wait for good 
 weather, I don't think must have a raft, but it is personal preference.  Vane 
 Bros. in Baltimore will rent you one for $500.  I'd be inclined to rent an 
 EPIRB.  Boat US rents them, and Vane Bros. may as well.  Battery is much more 
 robust then a PLB.
 Jacklines, inflatable PFDs with harnesses are a must.  Take a look at the

 They have a temperature and humidity controlled room with all of the

 Yes, the CC drawings at the Marine Museum are a tremendous resource. 
 However, I had forgotten that the 43 keel was a combination of iron and lead 
 castings. I'm in the process of doing a series of articles for Good Old Boat 
 on the evolution of the keel in sailing yachts, and the 43 would be an 
 excellent example of this transitional stage to an all lead casting. Is there 
 any chance you could send me a copy of that keel drawing,  otherwise I too 
 would get a copy from the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes at Kingston.  I'll 
 be up there on the 19th for a Board meeting.

 I received our CC 43-1 digital drawings this week and had a chance to give 
 them a good look over. We purchase a little over 20 drawings, both the 
 digital and printed copies.  The printed full size copies are should be 
 delivered in a week or so.
 
  
 
 The purchase was worth every penny.  On the keel drawings are hand written 
 notes listing the actual weights of the first 3 castings of both the iron and 
 lead parts.  Also, the keel drawing shows all the bolt locations including 
 some between the lead and iron parts that I had not found (they are buried 
 inside the keel assembly).
 
  
 
 Calypso’s mast and fittings are all custom (the fittings are overbuilt, 
 fabricated SS).  The drawing package included dimensioned drawings for most 
 of the fittings and the spreaders. If the mast ever get damaged we now have 
 an excellent starting point for the repair.  We also got the original chain 
 plate drawings.  I found some additional drawing numbers relating to the 
 spars and have requested them from the museum.
 
  
 
 As Calypso is hull #1 of the custom 43 series many of the hull build drawings 
 have additional notes regarding fiberglass lay-up details that I was not 
 aware of including extra lay-up in high stress areas and where the balsa 
 starts and ends.  Along with the “as built” type drawings are the early 1970 
 conceptual deck and interior drawings used to sell the project to the first 
 buyer.  It is interesting to see how the design changed from the early 
 marketing to actual build.
 
  
 
 The rudder drawings include the first rudder and rudder bearing assemblies 
 which show the rudder’s stock details and the massive bronze casting that 
 makes up the lower rudder bearing assembly.  I also have the drawing of 
 Calypso’s 2nd rudder which is deeper with additional inner SS structure.
 
  
 
 The icing on the cake for me is the drawings that show the transom 
 modifications performed in late 1973.  It is a relief to know that the 
 original CC design team engineered the change including how much additional 
 lay-up was needed to maintain structural integrity.  This drawing will be 
 very useful if we decide to restore the original transom shape.

Re: Stus-List Latest Chartplotters

I find the Raymarine more intuitive to use. I can mostly figure it out by
pushing buttons. I have to get out the manual for the BG.

I'm just about to buy an e7d on advice from my favorite electronics guru.
Another thing I like about it over the BG is that it has wifi that means I
can see everything on its screen and control it from my iPad. So the
repeater plotter I will have at the nav station (or in my bunk) will be my

Wifi, Rick.
How does salt water get on your screens? Mine will be mounted in the
cockpit so it should never get wet.
Or are you guys THAT kind of sailor? The kind that sails in splashy weather
when all prudent mariners are at the bar...

 I have to agree with Joel about the Raymarine touch screen in a saltwater
 environment. And, Joel, it isn’t just the plotter on your boat. I’ve had
 the same experience on two other boats recently, and the electronics guy
 who does much of the work in my area steered a customer refitting a Pacific
 Seacraft 37 away from the Raymarine for that reason. On the other hand, I
 find the touch screen on the Garmin 7series work quite well. I was
 pleasantly surprised.



 As far as software, I find the Garmin more intuitive than the Raymarine.
 But I’ve had more experience with Garmin plotters over the years, so I
 suppose that’s sort of an Android vs. iOS thing and not a real difference
 in capabilities.



 Andy, do you mean WiFi or Bluetooth? The newer Garmin plotters will also
 interface with a tablet using Bluetooth.

 I have an E7.  You will find the touch screen on the iPad easier to use
 than the E7's after a few days of salt spray.  I did not play with the new
 BG or Garmin stuff.  The main reason I did not buy the Garmin that was on
 the market 3 years ago was it was all touch screen.  I like having the
 joystick.

 I'm just about to buy an e7d on advice from my favorite electronics guru.
 Another thing I like about it over the BG is that it has wifi that means I
 can see everything on its screen and control it from my iPad. So the
 repeater plotter I will have at the nav station (or in my bunk) will be my
 iPad.

 I still have an RC-80 Raymarine which works fine, but all these new
 features, plus many, many more make my knees go weak.

 Any Comments?

 Another observation, I notice that Defender has nothing from Garmin
 anymore.
 I wonder if they pulled their plug for not playing by the rules and selling
 below their suggested prices. ?

Re: Stus-List 34 offshore

And when you leave Florida for Bimini or the Banks, leaving at night allows
you to pick up the lights on the big radio tower on Bimini so you know how
far you got pushed by the stream and then when you get there the sun is up
so you can make your way in.
I guess I'm dating myself as that isn't necessary in these days of GPS and
plotters.

 His

 Anyone else on the list with the CB version do any offshore cruising? I'm

 extended offshore... not so much.  Aside from that, cargo capacity becomes a

 there.
 
 I always liked the 34 and may yet own one someday. I'll keep her within the

this year, what could be more natural than dreaming about summer sailing plans? 
I hope more than a few on the list will plan to sail in Block Island Race Week 
June 21-26

This regatta was a ton of fun and I think many others on the list would enjoy 
it. I found the logistics much simpler to organize than I anticipated. We 
anchored out and there was plenty of room for others who came in mid week--the 
anchorage wasn't crowded. This could be a perfect regatta for a family or a 
bunch of the boys (or girls) and it's not too expensive if you do it the way 
my crew and I did last time; by staying on the boat and mostly eating aboard. 
That's what our cruiser/racers were designed to do and it's fun going old 
school at such a major regatta. One of my crew brought along his boat for 
additional room. A good way to be more comfortable would be for a couple of 
owners to team up to sail one boat and sleep on both each night. 
Full disclosure, Storm Trysail is my club and I'm doing all I can to help 
promote the regatta. But really I'd mostly like to get a bunch of CCers out 
there to play with.
I can't stress enough how simple sailing in this regatta can be; you don't even 
need to go stripping the boat. We raced Peregrine in full cruising mode with 
full water tanks, and a week's worth of food aboard and had a ball.

Here's a letter I wrote to the organizers after the 2013 regatta.

Dear ladies and gentlemen of the race committee,

I am nearly recovered from last week (I'm sure it will take you a bit longer!) 
and I wanted to drop you a line to express my appreciation and tell you how 
much my crew and I enjoyed ourselves. This was my first foray to BIRW in 36 
years and my first on my own boat, but not my last.

First of all, I can't imagine the time and effort and sheer lifting necessary 
to get the equipment and personnel on site. From the outside looking in, the RC 
team pulled it off without a hitch. That alone is a feat worthy of Papal 
attention.

I appreciate the help you gave me to make sure my entry process went smoothly. 
My dog thinks I'm pretty special, but I don't flatter myself that you do, too, 
yet I was left with the impression that you found it personally important that 
entering the regatta was as easy and enjoyable as possible for me. What a job 
to do that for 182 skippers! Thank you for the hand-holding!

I normally avoid the beer tent at regattas. However, this one was so well 
organized and the wait for drinks so short and the company so terrific, that my 
crew and I showed up every night. And stayed!

Because my boat is new to me and I wasn't sure I could get and house crew, I 
entered the Cruising Class non-spinnaker division. The single navigator-style 
race format proved to be a lot of fun and not so taxing that my crew in their 
50s and 60s were too worn out to make it to the party every single night. The 
racing format was an excellent idea and Bruce Bingham's execution was terrific. 
Bruce and his crew did everything a first class race committee is supposed to 
do; the lines were good, his weather intuition was spot-on, and the courses 
interesting and just the right length. 

I know organizing Race Week must have been a full-time job for you and others 
for months before the event and I can only say, Thank You and Well Done

Re: Stus-List Fw: The stern squats at high speed

On my Shields, which is a lovely slim 30 footer with long overhangs, when we 
get going hull speed and the breeze is trying to push us quicker, the bow wave 
starts rolling over the foredeck and the stern wave rolls over the aft deck. 
Any faster and we'd be under!

 Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this...
  
 The stern of a displacement hull vessel will begin to submerge as you 
 approach hull speed.  It's settling into the trough of its own wake(s).
  
 Even kayaks do it.
  
 Someone told me a long time ago that a displacement vessel could 
 theoretically sink itself if it had enough power.
  
 YMMV

Re: Stus-List questions from potential buyer

2015-01-13 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
He should have tapped the hull, too, which would tell him if there is any 
delamination. High readings could be caused by condensation inside the boat. 
Bottom line is that I would tend to trust him. Get a second opinion, if you're 
not confident.
Great boat! Good luck with your purchase.

 Hello all,
 I've found a mid 70s CC 33-1 that I'm interested in buying. One thing the 
 survey indicated was elevated moisture levels, into the yellow on the meter, 
 in the bottom.  The owner had the bottom epoxy barrier coated about 8 years 
 ago, and the bottom paint was new last year.  There were no blisters present 
 at the survey, and the owner has said there have never been any- he has owned 
 the boat for 30+ years.  The boat has been on the Great Lakes from new, and 
 based on the condition of the boat, especially compared to all the boats I 
 have looked at,  I would say the boat has had an attentive, conscientious 
 owner. 
 
 My question is whether elevated moisture in several areas of the bottom of a 
 solid fiberglass hull should be a deal breaker or a matter of concern.
 The surveyor told me that he would not be concerned, and that if I was I 
 should  buy a new boat (hah! not happening).
 Do you agree with the surveyor's lack of concern about some level of moisture 
 in the bottom of a solid glass hull of a 40 year old boat?
 
 Many thanks in advance for advice.  My search for a boat has lasted a couple 
 of years now, has included a big learning curve, and has focused on CCs, in 
 large part because of the valuable information and assistance available on 
 this site from the members. Thanks again.

Re: Stus-List CC 37+ engine size

2015-01-12 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
Danny,
If it's any help, I'd buy another 40 in a heartbeat. Also the right 39, 37,
37+, or 41. Great boats all. That said, I wouldn't mind a more powerful
engine in Peregrine, but I don't have the room for it or the fuel capacity
to run it for long. Powering against wind and current down Vineyard Sound
one gray day last summer, we were making 3 knots over the planet--sometimes
less--until I hoisted a double reefed main and unrolled part of the jib and
turned off the engine. Then we started romping along at 5+. And the boat
felt better and we were happier. The nice thing about our boats is that
they are so easily-driven that they don't need a ton of sail to make them
go fast enough for cruising. And they are FUN to sail, which makes a longer
passage easier to endure.
the other side of that coin is that in the conditions you're talking about,
even a boat with a good-sized engine is going to be considerably slowed by
the chop.

 When you are experiencing heavy currents and can only go 3 kts to round
 the mark.� Is that 3 kts being measured by the gps or is it 3 kts measured
 by the speed log?� It sounds to me like it is 3kts by gps and if so then
 from all of the other listers comments and my own experience a larger
 engine would only allow you to proceed at 4kts.

 When people experience a mismatch between boat size and drive train
 performance it is most often experienced in heavy chop.� I believe there
 are two main factors at work in these under powered cases.�

 The first is the diameter of the prop.� Smaller engines = smaller props =
 less bite in the water and when things get sloppy the prop slips and
 cavitates more.

 The second part is prop speed.� In order to use a smaller engine to do the
 same job the designers will gear it to gain mechanical advantage.� The prop
 will have to spin faster than its higher powered counterparts.� Faster
 prop=less bite and closer to cavitation.

 When these two factors are at play the speed log will slow
 disproportionately to the gps speed.� Everyone has probably experienced
 plunging the bow into a breaker and seeing the boat speed come down.� The
 question is how long does it take go recover.� These smaller props spinning
 at higher rpm slip and cavitate more so speed recovery is longer.� If the
 next breaker gets to you before the speed recovers

 Remind me, your boat, Lolita?, has an A4 right?� Is it direct drive?� If
 my recollections are correct then you have a couple of things that set your
 experiences apart from what you could expect from a larger diesel powered
 boat such as a 37+, 38LF, or a 40.� Forgive me if my recollections are
 incorrect.

 First is that the gas engines don't have as much low end torque so when
 those breakers come and the boat needs to make up, the engine has a harder
 time coming back up to speed.�

 Second, the direct drive (1:1) means that right from the start the prop
 has to spin much faster and an increase in load at the prop is directly
 felt as an increase in load at the engine.� There are no gears to help in
 having less low end torque so the prop pitch is much less as well, again
 meaning more cavitation.

 Third, being a shorter and lighter boat means that the breakers will cause
 the boat to hobby-horse around a lot more and also push the bow off
 requiring more helm.

 All of these factors make for a less comfortable ride and slower progress
 in the thick stuff.

 Good Luck,

Sorry to hear you're parting with Indigo, Rich. I hope you will get another 
boat out there. It's the most beautiful cruising grounds in the world! Boat 
prices are high, though, and you may well find that it's more economical to 
ship Indigo out.
Congrats on the move!

 arrive around the end of January.
 
 The sad part of this will be leaving Indigo, our LF 38 behind. It’s simply 
 not practical to ship her to the west coast and the North West Passage is a 
 bit too ice choked at this time of year to sail. So, she is up for sale.

Re: Stus-List Block Island Race Week 2015

2014-12-16 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
Hi Tim, a little late in replying, but yes, Peregrine will be at Block Island 
Race Week again this year. 
Last year one of the crew brought his cruising boat and Zodiac and we rated up 
and anchored just on the other side of the channel from the marina. We slept on 
both boats and were comfortable the whole week, despite the fog that moved in 
one night! We will be sailing Cruising Class, non-spinnaker again. That was a 
ton of fun for us as my crew are all old and the racing didn't wear us out 
enough to impinge on our time at the MtGay tent.

There was lots of room in the anchorage. We got there on Friday, but there was 
no need to worry about finding a good spot.

 I’d have to plead partially guilty to that.
  
 I’m planning to attend the PNW Rendezvous and explore the Gulf Islands with 
 my Admiral, and had hoped to charter a CC for the trip. Twist, the 110 that 
 was at Island Cruising in Sidney is no longer in their fleet. Only CC I’ve 
 managed to find would be a skippered charter on a 41 out of Nanaimo. So it 
 looks like I might be at the Rendezvous in a Bavaria/DuFour/ Benneteau 
 charter boat; that seems to be what most charter fleets in the area are made 
 of.
  
 More importantly, my interest in delivering Indigo is in getting more 
 offshore time. After 5 months of medical tests to prove I really can hear and 
 see, I wear hearing aids and glasses, and that I’m not about to keel over 
 because of my diabetes, the USCG finally issued my 50 ton Masters License. 
 I’ve got an Inshore Master and a Near-coastal 6-pack, with sail and towing 
 endorsements. I need just under 60 more offshore days to upgrade the Master’s 
 ticket.
  
 Besides, it would be fun to get to meet some of the other CC skippers I know 
 from years on the various iterations of Stu’s List and its precursors.

About the time your boat was built riggers started using three halyard mast

can be used for spinnakers.

Re: Stus-List 34/36 flat area

2014-11-04 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
That flat area forward of the keel on many 70s and 80s CCs, including my 40, 
was there as a way of fudging an IOR measurement point. The purpose was to make 
the rule think the boat was slower than it actually was. The boats do pound if 
you motor straight into waves, but heeled the hull presents a much nicer shape 
to a seaway.

 The 33 mkII also has a fairly flat hull bottom section, almost from the back 
 of the keel forward. I understand that it helps a lot to keep a good heel 
 angle to prevent pounding going upwind. But in short waves IT WILL BANG 
 whoever is at the helm. I'm even thinking about reinforcing the front section 
 of the hull laminating a grid from the inside because i think there is a 
 lack of support there and it flexes too much. I was able to notice the flex 
 last summer in the choppy conditions of the Northumberland strait. Any 
 comment on that project are welcomed.
  
 That said, the boat is fast for it's size and fairly stable downwind for an 
 old boat. I don't know if the flat section really helps but i did hit some 
 very good speed going downwind and surfing for a brief moment (not sustained 
 surfing) at a MAX speed of 14 knots!!! on the speedo, not GPS (was not 
 looking down!). that day the boat was averaging a speed over 8.5 regularly 
 surfing over 9 and 10 with rides over 11.5. I did saw a 14 for like a second 
 or two, i don't know what the GPS was showing... It was blowing over 30 with 
 a fairly big following sea. the sails where tied wing to wing, two reefs 
 and with my no.3 (110%) a bit furled and stabilized with a whisker pole. . 
 since the sails were tied with the boom secured too, and that my sails were 
 balanced for the conditions i was able to play the wind a little to 
 accelerate in the puffs and then point the bow down the waves. Very fun ride 
 but very stressful for my girlfriend and me too at some points.
  
 a friend following us with his CS 36 bent his boom that day after an 
 accidental jibe. his boat seemed harder to steer in those conditions and was 
 not surfing as much as we were. the CS is way heavier and has a very V 
 shape bow.

 Lots of fast boats have a flat bottom from the keel forward.I made a 
 short delivery (40 miles) on a J44 in heavy winds and seas on the 
 'nose'..the boat pounded on every wave it hit.
 
 I don't think the the 34R is any different.the same thing happened on a 
 delivery from Port Hawkesbury to Halifax with the wind and waves on the 
 nose.that front flat section of the bottom does not push the water away 
 in those conditions.at least it didn't for us.both sailing and 
 motoring.  So I am not sure what Rob Ball means when he says it wouldn't 
 slam when sailing, or when heeled because the hull has a vee on either side 
 of the flat, so it acts like a keel when heeled. 
 
 We did a lot of spin runs racing the 34R.the fastest I can recall we got 
 the boat going was about 10.2 knots on the GPS and that was with a 3/4 oz. 
 chute in about 25 knts true.

 So clean any space that needs proper sealing, clean it after the butyl is

 inspection or service.
 
 A rigger friend recommended full replacement.
 
 Is this correct?  And what are alternatives?  What is a rod replacement cost

 I love the boat layout etc.  But suspect rigging will kill my offshore

 No, you don't have to report back to the list on how you did.

 If you operate a boat, even a sailboat, you need to know rules of the
 road, basic seamanship and marine safety.  I'm always amazed at the low
 level of knowledge of many boaters.  I once sailed in convoy with another
 sailboat.  We came to a major ship channel with a LARGE ship transiting the
 channel.  The other sailor appeared to believe he had right of way over
 this large ship in a confined channel.  The ship sounded the six whistle
 alarm.  I hailed my buddy and suggested he tack out of the ship's way.  :)

Stus-List Savannah /Charleston boatyards

Can anyone recommend a good yard in the Charleston/Savannah area where I can 
get some significant work done on a client's boat. It will need to come out of 
the water and she draws 11' and the mast height is more than 80' so the 
approach has to be pretty easy.

Re: Stus-List sailing under jib alone

2014-09-19 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
I have sailed in storm conditions several times with only a jib and no 
problems. The main, when hoisted, dies stabilize the mast. But with the rig on 
the  40, for instance, I would crank on the baby stay and back stay to induce 
bend and then rig the runners fairly hard. The mast would be perfectly stable 
and I would be confident I wasn't going to harm the rig.
Bottom line: don't hesitate to sail under jib alone.

 I am afraid that the idea of the “uneven loading on the rig” is another myth.
  
 Your rig (not the rigging, but the boat, as a whole) is unbalanced. How much, 
 it depends on the size and shape of your jib.
  
 I think the problem stems from the fact that in lighter winds, you want to 
 have as much sail as you can or you are not moving. And in the strong winds, 
 you might be unbalanced to the point that it is difficult to steer (the boat 
 would have a tendency to bear off). You may also find it to be difficult to 
 tack, especially in waves.
  
 But if any of those does not wear _you_ off, the boat would be fine.

 All,
  
 Earlier this week I went out for a lazy sail after work.  Unfurled the jib in 
 10 knots of wind and decided I was too lazy to remove the main cover and 
 hoist the main.
  
 I've read that sailing under only jib is bad because it places an uneven load 
 on the rigging.  Seems to me that the load is minimal in light air and the 
 total load is a lot less under one sail.
  
 Thoughts?

 would bump on my way in or out unless it was high tide. The town operated 
 marina at the head of the harbor is nice, but likewise very shallow. Really 
 just for daytripping powerboats. They had a few (3?) deeper slips, but I was 
 in one of those and woke up at low tide to find I was firmly stuck in over a 
 foot of mud with my 5 foot draft. A scuba diver happened by, and he stood up 
 at the end of my slip. The water was somewhere between his belly button and 
 chest! Not kidding. Too bad, because the town operated slips are directly on 
 the restaurant district and the price was right. There is a nice privately 
 owned marina, Milford Boatworks  Marina, just down from the town facility, 
 with deeper slips, but it is a little further from the restaurants and 
 business areas and costs a bit more. I would call them about the shoaling 
 situation before making any plans. 
 
 Danfords Marina in Port Jeff might be able to accommodate you with enough

 David,
   On Cat’s Paw, I installed special sound insulation to quiet the noise of 
 our 30 hp Perkins diesel.  Decided to make noise measurements in the cockpit, 
 the cabin just forward of the engine, and all the way forward in the V-berth 
 (using a cheap dB meter app on the iPhone).  2 inch thick sound foam with a 
 special sound-adsorbing backing on the wooden engine housing in the cabin 
 (sides, front and top) and on the sides of the cockpit lockers.  Just too 
 hard to get to the underside of the cockpit floor.  It made only a small 
 difference in sound level - maybe a dB or two (I think 3 dB is a factor of 
 2).  When talking to a professional sound person when we separated a large 
 room with wooden sliding doors in our rental apartment downstairs with 
 special sound-absorbing materials, professionally installed, I was told that 
 even a small gap in the insulation would basically make the whole thing 
 pretty ineffective.  90 percent coverage with insulation would let much more 
 than 10 percent of the sound through.  That job really worked - they left no 
 crack uncovered and it really blocks the sound. So my guess is that unless 
 every exit point surrounding the engine were insulated, it would make little 
 difference (and I left the whole cockpit floor uninsulated).  Also the engine 
 can transmit sound by vibration through the engine mounts - perhaps new ones 
 would help - have not tried that.  But as it stands, pretty disappointing.
 
 See you at the Newport rendezvous in September - I can show you what I did.

I can't remember all the times I've had to sail a boat to the dock at the
end of a delivery.
It's good practice to sail your own boat in occasionally--just for fun--in
case one day you have to get in without an engine. I suspect most of the
people on this list know their boats well enough that they can do this
without too much trouble. It's most a matter of knowing how far the boat
will carry her way and how to slow down if you don't like the approach
speed. Fortunate;y we all have boats that are very maneuverable and that
accelerate quickly.
Using the boat for this sort of thing is all part of the fun and it's
immensely gratifying when you pull it off perfectly--especially in front of
an audience! :)

 In my olden days as a member of the Yacht Club's Executive Committee,
 business was brought forth to propose that sailboats must use engines in
 the marina (or something to that effect).  I pointed out that engines are
 auxiliary power on sailboats and if we are to endorse this business I will

 power.

 That was the end of discussion.

Re: Stus-List Engine Sound Insulation - Go Without an engine?

 (save that one time when my outboard quit when turning into the fairway)

Which is exactly why I advocate practicing sailing in! We lose these skills
over time, so practice is necessary and far from irresponsible. Nothing
says we have to come charging in at hull speed. Try approaching with just
the jib or just the main up--it's part of getting to know your boat. It
sure beats waiting for SeaTow as your boat drifts down an grounds on the
jetty.

And in a man overboard situation, I absolutely would prefer to use the
engine. Unless it was too rough, or as very often happens in the kefuffle
of a man overboard, a line wraps around the prop. That's the reason we
ALWAYS practice MOB retreival under sail.

 And I bet that most of us would prefer to use the engine in a MOB situation
 than do it under sails alone.

 The harbours got more crowded, the slips narrower, the skills required did
 not get better and the engines did. Not to mention that we very often sail
 shorthanded.

 This does not take away from the fact that not that long ago even bigger
 vessels operated without the auxiliary power and somehow managed to do that.

 Guess I am missing something here…maybe I don’t understand what is meant
 by “marina”.  I know it is possible to dock a 35 footer like Alianna at a
 “marina” using sails only and I have done it a time or two but under
 unfavorable wind conditions due to direction or strength in such close
 quarters I prefer to use auxiliary power and have my sails down and packed
 away before going to the dock or maybe I am missing what auxiliary power
 means to anyone in craft not outfitted with sails…or maybe I have just
 become more of a whimp and less of a purest as I grew older…hell I even
 prefer auxiliary power when tieing up to a mooring in a crowded mooring
 field and sailing off a mooring in a crowded field in some wind conditions
 can also be tricky and unnecessarily risky

 In my olden days as a member of the Yacht Club's Executive Committee,
 business was brought forth to propose that sailboats must use engines in
 the marina (or something to that effect).  I pointed out that engines are
 auxiliary power on sailboats and if we are to endorse this business I will
 push that ALL vessels operating in the marina are required to use auxiliary
 power.

 That was the end of discussion.

 Good times.

 Robert,



 If you ever do decide to install new insulation I can share a few tricks
 to make it easier as I re-insulated the compartment in my CC 32 last year.



 I used material purchased from Defender which is reflective containing
 foam and rubber and lead which is impossible to drill holes in for mounting
 and the compartment does not allow room to swing a hammer to mount with the
 usual mounting hardware.

 If I ever did it again I would glue the stuff in.



 Anyhow, I tore the old stuff out and left in the mounting screws then made
 cardboard templets of the foam patters and put a  small amount of paint or
 magic marker on each screw head and pressed the cardboard in place. This
 gave me screw locations for the pattern and insulation. I then laid the
 pattern on the insulation to cut to shape and transferred the holes to the
 insulation using a small soldering Iron which burned through the insulation
 foam and rubber. A drill caught and twisted the foam and got caught messing
 up the insulation and took a lot of time removing. Then remove all the
 screws in the sides of the engine compartment and mount the insulation with
 fender washers on the  old screws. I then used metal backed duct tape on
 the ends and any joints of the insulation. See Arpeggio1984.info, web site
 under Projects 2013 for results. Looks and works good!

 Update: Tonight I removed the sound insulation from the sides of the
 engine compartment. Let me tell you - it was a dirty mess. Surprisingly, it
 is possible for a substance to be both dusty and oily at the same time. On
 the bright side, after removing the old, crumbling insulation I was able to
 give the little Yanmar and the engine compartment a good cleaning. It looks
 100% better now and I think it will be easier to keep the engine clean.



 I can't report on the noise yet as I'm waiting on an exhaust elbow at the
 moment. Even if it's a little noisier under power, I think that it may be
 worth it just to have a little more room in the engine compartment (it's
 amazing what an extra couple of inches can give you in a cramped space) .
 On the other hand, if the racket proves to be intolerable, I'll report back
 with a warning to others who might be contemplating taking the same steps.



 Thanks to everyone for the helpful feedback.

 I have replaced the old, crumbling sound insulation in the accessible
 parts of my engine compartment with new sound insulation from West Marine.
 However, there is almost no room on either side of my Yanmar in my 30 MKII.
 Getting new insulation in along the sides is going to be very difficult. I
 am contemplating just taking out the old insulation from the sides of the
 engine compartment and going without. Does anyone think this would be a big

 Yesterday, it was pretty sporty on the lake with winds in the upper

 engine start key /  broke it  as he stepped over to come and take the wheel
 for a while..  I could not find my spare key so I had to stick the broken
 half  back into the slot to get the engine re-started.

 Back at the marina in the evening, I tried to remove the broken piece by
 prying  / pulling  it out with a variety of small screwdrivers, drill bits.
 and other implements nothing was working and it was getting late so I
 decided to take the switch off to bring home and figure it out later.

 That's when I found out  that I was very thankful for thoughtful Yanmar
 engineers: There is a slot in the barrel directly over the key's teeth.
  All you need to do is stick a small screwdriver in the slot and push the
 offending broken piece out..

 Brillant!

 Outside of that it was a phenomenal day on the lake.  Probably the best

 Here is another rule quandary that happened at our club recently
 
 RC sets up the line with the pin on its port side. Triangular course -

 the pin was to port at the start and round the windward mark to port -

 subsequent marks to starboard

 rights either, yet Rule 18 is not that difficult to understand as it is 
 written on paper and your explanation is easy to understand 
 too…understanding of the written rule and application of the rule on the 
 water at mark roundings is, on the other hand, often a judgement call…not 
 having knowledge of the rules or how they apply on the water or maybe even 
 having that knowledge but pushing the limits of the rule can cause 
 unecessary collisions…like I said earlier the issue is not so crystal clear 
 to me from Davids recollection of what happened but it is troublesome that 
 he did not know who had rights and maybe the same could be said for the 
 other boat yet they were still out there sailing rather expensive vessels on 
 a possible collision course in close proximity to one another…we all know 
 that sailboats don’t have very good brakes and they carry a lot of 
 momentum…it is very good however that one boat finally did give way and no 
 collision happened…racing rules can work but all sailors need to know and 
 understand how they apply in given situations and they need to obey the 
 rules or else they should take a break from racing and do some 
 study…knowledge of the rules at the start, at crossings on course and mark 
 roundings are particularly critical because that is where most collion 
 possibilities are encountered.  I do not know anything about David’s racing 
 experience but I am hoping that this event and the discussion we have had 
 here will encourage him to study the rules so that he never has to say 
 again, I did not know who had rights, and I hope we all know that we must 
 take all possible action to avoid collision with another boat regardless of 
 who has rights according to the rules of racing

 Actually, you had an inside overlap.  There is no requirement for boats to 
 be in close proximity to one another for an overlap to exist.  You were 
 clear ahead until the other boat established an overlap to windward of you.  
 The only way for the other boat to have had rights would be if it became 
 clear ahead before either of you had entered the zone.  Since you both 
 entered the zone at around the same time, you had an inside overlap, and 
 rights at the mark.

 starting to cruise more and find that after 3 days on board we NEED to get
 off. I love how this boat sails! she handles beautifully and has a very
 slippery hull, deep keel and points like nobody's business! However we
 really want some creature comforts. Like, at least a swim platform, I think
 this can be added to the right boat, A stand-up shower and a usable galley.
 A large cockpit is also on the want list for entertaining.

 We don't race but we like to go fast.

 My thoughts are to either buy a suitable older boat and have her modified
 to what we want or go for a new boat. We like the Jeanneau 349 but my fear
 is the quality of the new boats and the composites they use. I love the
 solid hull on my viking. The wife really loves the light open feeling of
 the newer boats and I'm only even considering them for her sake.

 I'd like to start a conversation on this and hopefully come to a
 conclusion. I feel that a new boat will depreciate quickly and a refurb of
 an older boat will offer a better quality built boat overall and the value
 will remain largely the same.

 I have, until now, rehabbed 2 boats from the brink of the crusher.
 Although I enjoyed the process and have a strong sense of accomplishment, I
 don't want to do it again. I want to find a boat, have the work contracted
 out by a reputable yard and end up in a turn key situation. I'm getting a
 bit older and just want a boat, in great shape, that I can simply maintain
 and sail more than work on.

 I'm considering looking on the great lakes for a nice freshwater boat.  I
 think and older freshwater boat will potentially be in better shape than a
 newer saltwater vessel.  I think the added cost of the shipping or extended
 cruising vacation could really be worth it!!

 I'm looking forward to all the tips, suggestions and insights!!

 I guess someone is going to get a really nice V33 in Lolita!

 Danny

Danny it wouldn't take much to get the boat here. I've just done that trip
a couple of times. I can help you out with logistics if you jump (but it'll
mean coming to Newport and getting together for a beer). And the trip is
easy and beautiful. Don't be put off by that.

 I second Pierre's suggestion

 That CC 36XL in Toronto looks really good.

 http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1996/C%26C-36XL-2527557/toronto/Canada#.U_NvE010zmE

 As a current owner of a 34+ (Same boat, might have a slightly different
 rig)It seems it would fit the bill.

 Points like nobody's business, very comfortable:  we spend weekends and
 short vacations with the whole family (2 kids) and it's roomy enough,
 separate shower, etc. To paraphrase one of my dock buddies: He says you
 guys are staying at the Marriott, I'm at the Motel 6..

 And fast as heck.  We hit 8.4 knots in 13-14 knots true last weekend again
 and it will pretty much match (True) wind speed on a reach on 3.5 knots or
 less wind.

 We raced twice but the race was called both times because of weather.  1)
 no wind 2) pretty bad thunderstorm.  We were top 3-4 on the 1st race (Our
 1st ever on our boat)  and we were leading the 2nd race by a good margin
 when we had to call it quits in the storm.


 Good Luck,

Re: Stus-List Racing rules at marks

2014-08-19 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
18.1 When Rule 18 Applies
Rule 18 applies between boats when they are required to leave a
mark on the same side and at least one of them is in the zone.

18.2 Giving Mark-Room
(a) When boats are overlapped the outside boat shall give the
inside boat mark-room, unless rule 18.2(b) applies.
(b) If boats are overlapped when the first of them reaches the zone,
the outside boat at that moment shall thereafter give the inside
boat mark-room. If a boat is clear ahead when she reaches the
zone, the boat clear astern at that moment shall thereafter give
her mark-room.
(c) When a boat is required to give mark-room by rule 18.2(b),
(1) she shall continue to do so even if later an overlap is
broken or a new overlap begins;

If you're inside and not laying the mark you can head up--as long as you don't 
go past head-to-wind and still be entitled to room.

Sailing in a 30-boat one design fleet will expose you to pretty much all these 
situations!

 Like Edd said, you had rights as the leeward boat and, as leeward boat 
 entering the two boat length circle, you carried those rights into the 
 circle.  
 
 I would place less emphasis on rights as inside boat unless you are 
 ABSOLUTELY positive you were laying the mark.  Consider this, a boat 
 approaching the mark is claiming they are inside boat but they aren't laying 
 the mark.  They could claim they were laying the mark and were inside boat 
 and a windward boat did not grant them room to round so that they were forced 
 past the mark by the windward boat.  I've never been involved in such a 
 situation but it could happen.  The demonstration of inside boat is when it 
 actually lays and rounds the mark.

  Now whether or not it is worth the fight is a whole other story.  Maybe 
  they will be in a position to give you a little leeway on the next leg.
  
 At a mark rounding I once told a Melges 32 helmsman he would need a liferaft 
 before a protest flag if he stuck his nose in there.
  
 With mixed fleets of RV class heavy displacement boats (like Calypso) along 
 with lightweight sporty boats the mark roundings can get exciting.

Re: Stus-List what happened to this boat?

2014-08-18 Thread Andrew Burton via CnC-List
Before I bought Peregrine, I looked at a 39 here. It's always been one of
my favorite boats; I agree with what Bob Perry has to say about its looks.
The one I saw here was asking $25K and was in about the same shape, except
the deck was covered with Treadmaster.
I passed.
