Re: Stus-List inexpensive chartplotter

[Glenn Gambel via CnC-List]

Fred,
Just wondered if I am correct that Raymarine Axiom 9, which I have with 
Navionics+, still does not have a night mode similar to Garmin?  When I 
discovered that, I contacted their support guy (Charles, Chuck) and he 
indicated they did not have a night mode.  He started a ticket on that 
request to determine if one could be added.  What in the world were they 
thinking.


Secondly, I could swap out Navionics+ for the Raymarine charts, but 
wonder what you think of both?  I will be traveling up into Canadian 
waters (Lake Huron, Georgian Bay) this summer and wonder if there is a 
difference in what one sees on the charts?


Thank you,

Chris — once you’ve decided on a make/model but before you purchase, 
please email me — as you’re new to the list, you probably aren’t aware 
of this, but I used to design and install marine electronics and 
electrical systems for a living.  I’ve kept my vendor relationships 
active, and offer discount pricing (pretty much dealer cost) to people 
on the C list as a courtesy.  I can get most manufacturers’ gear (not 
B…) at good pricing; for instance, your cost on the lowest-end 
Raymarine Axiom 7” plotter with Navionics+ US/Canada charts would be 
$780.00 plus shipping (list $899.99).  Email me off-list.

Re: Stus-List Docking Seamanship

[Glenn Gambel via CnC-List]

No one seems to mention that on some C's the stanchions protrude 
enough so that they will catch as you come in or out of a slip that has 
pilings or boards on the finger pier. Unless someone is on the boat to 
assist in keeping that from happening, one is likely to destroy a 
stanchion.  I have a couple of times over the many years I have owned my 
C 36.  It is a problem.  Just thought I would mention that.

A variation on the spring line is to run a long line attached at the 
toe rail next to the sidestay, outside the lifeline, with bitter 
end/tail running back into the cockpit.  Tail remains loose in the 
cockpit for the approach.  Stay at wheel and throw the line (holding 
onto tail) beyond the dock cleat so as you pass a bight forms around 
the cleat.  You'll have a loop that runs from amidships, around dock 
cleat, back into cockpit.  Wrap tail around cockpit winch as you pass 
the dock cleat.  Can pull in or ease if needed to gently slow the boat. 
 With boat stopped leave boat in forward idle with wheel to port and it 
stays snug against the dock.  Acts just like a spring line but is 
easier to get it around the dock cleat.


Reverse the process to leave the dock.  With boat in forward idle and 
spring attached, remove other dock lines, get into boat.  Then with 
boat in nuetral pop the bight off the dock cleat and recover the line.

Attention Listers,

I followed the advice of contacting Allen Hutton at

needle bearing that I needed to repair my Barient 28 ST winch.  He told 
me that he had the bearings, gave me the part number and I ordered two 
of them this evening, supplying my credit card in a fairly secure way 
and they will be shipped to be via insured mail. What great customer 
service.  I highly recommend this company and Allen.  Though everyone

Re: Stus-List Touche' hydraulic backstay adjuster repair

[Glenn Gambel via CnC-List]

My Navtec hydraulic backstay tensioner blew a seal in the middle of the 
Queen's Cup race from Milwaukee, WI. to Grand Haven, MI.  I called 
around and got some recommendations on a hydraulic manufacturer and 
repair shop near Grand Rapids, MI.  Took it in on Monday and hope to 
have it back in less than a week.  We shall see how it goes.  From the 
recommendations that I got and from meeting the gentlemen who will do 
the repairs, I think it will be repaired correctly.  It is a bonus that 
the gentlemen knew a good deal about sailboat racing and understood the 
stresses on the hydraulic backstay adjuster.

Re: Stus-List insurance

[Glenn Gambel via CnC-List]

My insurance is with Boat US, and my rates did not go up.  Since I sail 
on Lake Michigan and not in coastal areas or waters, I speculate that 
location may have something to do with it.  We don't have hurricanes 
here.  I also speculate that the hurricanes which have destroyed so many 
boats are mostly the blame for the increases in insurance rates, 
deductibles, etc.  About the only thing one can do is shop around.


Something similar happened to me with regard to our home.  Home 
insurance leaped up because we do not live near a fire hydrant or fire 
station.  I complained and then shopped around.

If your deductible is zero, that means that your deductible has gone 
from whatever you had it, to zero without increasing your premium for 
the zero deductible.  In other words, you had no claims in the past 
four years, and your deductible has gone down twenty-five percent per 
year over those four years.  I had a claim, last year, and I didn't 
have to pay a deductible.  It started out as a four percent deductible, 
and it went down when I had no claims for four years or more.  I had 
the same question as you, until they explained it to me.  My insurance 
is due to renew in April, and the deductible will probably go back to 
four percent, plus whatever the new rates have increased to.

Re: Stus-List C Photo Album owners database

[Glenn Gambel via CnC-List]

Mike,

I have a 1981 C 36 with Rod rigging.  It has winches, etc. for racing. 
 I am 70, and would have very little problem sailing her by myself, 
provided I rigged her up for that purpose.   You must have roller 
furling.  You should have the jib halyard and main halyard lead aft so 
that if necessary you could drop one or the other with out having to go 
forward.  I have never had to do that.   That means I would likely hoist 
all of my sail area, but then again on a beautiful day with little 
chance of stuff happening, I would.  I have never put up a chute by 
myself.  Just not smart or in the cards at this age.  Finally, having a 
working auto pilot helps a great deal when single handing.  Don't forget 
to provide your self with jack lines and a harness as well as a life 
jacket.


The most difficult part for me is getting in and out of the the slip.  I 
have a rather large racing wheel at the helm which serves as a trap.  In 
addition, I am probably not as quick as I use to be.  Finally, C 
designed the stanchions on my boat in such a manner that they stick out 
slightly, just enough to allow me to catch a piling coming into of 
leaving a slip.  Having removed one in that manner, I don't want it to 
happen again.  My previous boat from many years ago, did not have that 
issue.  Just had a line on a piling and as I coasted into the slip, 
grabbed it and put it on my back winch.  Boat settle in to the slip 
without an issue.


It is a lot of boat to single hand, but it is a great sailing boat.  
When I race it I usually have five crew members plus myself.  Have done 
it with less, but that is not optimal.  Five plus me, and we feel safer 
about changing sails etc.  And since it is a mast head rig, the head 
sails are larger than if it were a fractional rig.


All of this said, you can probably do single handing with the boat, but 
I would suggest a smaller vessel would likely be easier.

Re: Stus-List Danfoss Compressor Controller

How did you decide it was the controller and not the compressor?  Is 
there a way to test to determine if the current controller is bad?  My 
controller is a 102N3030 12V DC with a 15 amp fuse.   I believe the 
digital control that you found on line will work in my boat, but I hate 
to spend $295 to find out it is not the controller but really the 
compressor or something else.

Hi Tom,

The information David provided you is not completely accurate.
The 4-pin Danfoss was used by a bunch of companies.
it is definitely obsolete, but if you do a Google search, it appears

Stus-List AIS and MMSI as well as marine radio use in Canada

[Glenn Gambel via CnC-List]

 If a boat crosses from the United States in to Canada and stops at a 
Canadian port, must the vessel (sailboat) have a ships station license 
from the FCC?  I believe the answer is yes.  Also, if the vessel has AIS 
and MMSI, I believe that is necessary to have a ship station license and 
have the MMSI issued by the FCC so that it meets the international 
treaty requirements.


I thought someone out there would know if I am correct or incorrect.

Also where I might find the correct forms on the FCC website, if they 
are needed.


Thanks in advance

Re: Stus-List Mast Step Box 1980 CnC36

[Glenn Gambel via CnC-List]

I have a 1981 C 36, and it is keel stepped, not deck stepped.  Even if 
your mast is keel stepped and you were some how going to raise it a bit 
without completely removing it, I would suggest that the process would 
be risky.  Better to take it out and investigate the problem completely. 
 May be a smarter and safer way to go in the long run.  In addition, you 
get the opportunity to check out all of the rigging, wiring, etc. and 
service or replace what is needed.  Just my thoughts.

Right you are Dwight, but the marina in Florida is insurance crazy and 
skill short when it comes to sailboat rigs. They insist that boat 
owners hire a "professional rigger" to assist with unstepping or 
stepping a mast. My plan is to improve the  situation for now, and 
unstep the mast to fix the step and a few other things when I get to a 
place that has a better attitude and maybe a crane. Everyone in our 
sailing club on Lake Erie unsteps their mast every year, so it is a 
little hard to relate to people who insist that it is such a big deal 
just because they don't do it much themselves.

 Whatever is supporting the mast step on my 1980 C project boat 
has sunk by 1/2 to 1.0 inch, and the mast is pulling down on the cabin 
top. There is no visible sign of rot in the wood and fibreglass cross 
members at either end, and I am planning to attempt to put an aluminum 
plate shim underneath. The step box is constructed of anodized 
aluminum about a half an inch thick, and the bottom plate extends 
forward forming a shelf through which 2 bolts or lag screws hold it in 
place. There are no other visible mechanical fasteners.
 Judging from all the talk over the years about mast steps, I am 
guessing that someone on the list has removed a similar box on a 
similar if not identical boat. What did you find? Were there other 
fasteners? Was the fibreglass holding it down? Any issues getting it 
loose? What is underneath that not obvious?
 I am hoping to do this without unstepping the mast, but just jacking 
it up a bit.

Re: Stus-List 3QM30 Head Gasket

[Glenn Gambel via CnC-List]

I paid a professional to do mine last summer.  Your price is not bad.  
It is more difficult than it looks.  I ended up with new heads as there 
was a hairline crack in the head.  He found it by xray, I believe.  We 
ran into difficulty finding a the new head and found it in Wisconsin.  
Had I tried this myself, I may not have found the crack and therefore 
would have made a real mess of the repair and spent a bunch more money 
doing it again.  Just my thoughts on having gone through this.

So...we are leaving harbor  to make our way down to Mystic for the 
Rendezvous.   As I usually do I turn around and check the exhaust for 
water and color.


Today the color as darkish grey and it looked like oil was coming out 
as well.


I do an immediate 180 and go back to the mooring.

Mechanic is out within the hour and confirms my suspicions. Head 
gasket.  To do the job right (injectors, planing head etc) he estimates 
$2,500 to $3,000.  I think the price is fair but I wonder if I could do 
it myself.   Anyone have any experiences around this?   I am a fair 
mechanic, but I don't want to be penny-wise of pound foolish and I have 
never done anything like this before.


Thanks in advance...

Stus-List Circuit Breaker Panels for 1981 C 36

[Glenn Gambel via CnC-List]

I was wondering if anyone knew what brand, type, etc.  single pole 
marine circuit breakers would fit in the original panels that were 
installed on a 1981 C 36?  My original panels are in great shape, but 
I have three or four circuit breakers that are no longer functioning and 
must be replaced.


I am hoping that this will not be as painful a project as some are.  Any 
help would be appreciated.
