We added the Balmar SG200 Battery Monitor to our boat a couple of years
ago. We have three battery banks, one engine start battery, and two house
banks of 300 amp/hour each (700 amp/hour total).  It seems to be a very
accurate system, giving lots of useful info on your Smartphone or iPad.

This is the version with no display, and a Bluetooth gateway: Balmar SG205
Smartgauge Battery Monitor with SmartShunt & Bluetooth® Gateway

Stus-List Re: Yanmar Parts ?

2024-02-18 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
I've had good luck with TOAD Marine Supply, based out of New Baltimore,
MI.  Back in 2001 they were able to supply an original Yanmar Turbo Inlet
hose that Yanmar stated was no longer manufactured, and so no longer
available.  I bought two from TOAD, to keep one as a spare.  They also
didn't have a problem shipping to Canada.

They seem to be associated with Marine Diesel Direct:


"In May of 2012, Torresen Online Acquisition, Inc. (TOA) entered into an
agreement with Torresen Marine, Inc. (TM), transitioning the ownership and
operations of their ecommerce online catalog.


Created in 1995, the online store has become one of the industry leading,
boating specific online retailers in the world with domain names including
MarineDieselDirect.com, LaserSailingDirect.com, SunfishDirect.com, and

2023-12-07 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
I can’t say for sure how the Rudder is supported in an 85 C 37 but by
1988, the C$C 37/40 had a bolt through the Rudder Post just above the deck
with two rollers on either end of the bolt that rolled on a plate on the
deck.  Perhaps that bolt is sheared off?

Stus-List Re: Shore Power Adapters.

2023-07-21 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
A  125V 30 amp Male to 125/250V Female Pigtail

This won't do what you think in North America, instead it will do
something dangerous in one way, and not do anything at all in another.

The 125V 30 amp Male plugs into the power source and will have three wires
in it, Black (Hot, providing 125 volts referenced to both neutral and to
Ground), White (Neutral, 0 volts referenced to ground) and Green (Ground).

The 125/250V Female Pigtail will have four wires, Black (Hot, providing 125
volts referenced to both neutral and to Ground), Red (also Hot, providing
125 volts referenced to both neutral and to Ground and 250 volts referenced
to the Black, but 180 degrees out of phase with the black, because it is
tapped off the opposite end of the transformer, with the neutral tapped at
the halfway point, halfway between red and black), White (Neutral, 0 volts
referenced to ground) and Green (Ground).

So look at the source, it only has 125 volts to start with so you aren't
going to get more than that.  If you connect the red and black in the
female, to the black in the male (i.e. bring two legs of the same 125 Volts
into a 250 volt system) you will get 0 volts in any 250 volt circuit on
your boat. The 110 volt circuits on your boat will generally do what you
expect, and deliver 110 volts.  Depending on exactly how your boat is
wired, you may end up with more current in some of the neutrals on your
boat that they are sized to carry, so may create a fire risk.

We supplied the boats with Baby Stays, knowing that the mast could be tuned
with a bit of bend so that it was not needed.  However, when the boat was brand
new, on the first sail, and not tuned yet, things could go south.  So, we kept
them on the boats.
In a violent seaway they do stabilize a pumping mast . . . .

I think you will have more luck at a local machine shop, either repairing
the existing thread (weld and redrill and tap), or drilling and tapping a
new hole elsewhere on the donut.

Loads of trees down all over town.  Lots of power poles snapped off too.
No damage to our house or to our boat.  We lost one smaller tree in our
front yard, it uprooted, and lots of smaller limbs (and a few big ones) are
down off our other trees.  Still no power on at home yet, not since Friday
midnight.  No landline, internet or tv either.  Radio works...  The little
Honda EU2200i generator is presently running our deep freezer,
refrigerator, boiler & pumps, Annes’s sewing machine, and a few lights.
Glad I bought extra gas, we’re going to need it.  Something like 19,200
customers without power in town still, 100,000 out across Nova Scotia.

Stus-List Re: Shower drain fitting

2022-08-22 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
The shower pickup is essentially the top of one of these Jabsco Utility
Hand Pumps (the top and bottom of the pump are red, it just doesn't show
red in the B photo on the spec sheet):
https://www.xylem.com/en-ca/products--services/pumps-packaged-pump-systems/packaged-solutions/drainage-dewatering2/utility-hand-pump-with-transfer-hose-kit/

You can buy a rebuild kit for the hand pump that includes a new top and
make it work:
https://www.xylem.com/siteassets/brand/jabsco/resources/manual/brass-hand-pump.pdf

Or you could buy a purpose built strainer and try to make it fit but I
think these are all going to be too large to fit the hose and shower sump:

I don't think it is easy to stay in the US for more than 12 month either.
But you only have to leave and go to another country for 15 days, then you
can return and start the clock over again.  I'm not sure what the similar

Further to this, it appears some of Henry's American clients had kept their
boats in Canada continuously for up to 18 years without ever actually
officially importing them, so never paid import duties:
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/tariff-for-non-canadian-boat-owners-threatens-yard-1.1322571

In the long run, the rules were not changed, and this didn't seem to have
any lasting effect on Henry's business.  The Cape Breton Boat Yard in
Baddeck, Nova Scotia is still in business.

Stus-List Re: Canadian Luxury Tax

2022-01-15 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
The "short amount of time" Andrew refers to is one full year (12 months).
The ``newish" law Andrew referred to has been on the books for at least 20
years ( I think since the fall of 1998) but has been spottily enforced. In
theory, US boats are not supposed to overwinter (stay longer than 12
months) in Canada without being legally imported and paying duty. But
there’s an exception. If a boat needs repairs, it may stay—and the repairs,
maintenance and storage of such yachts has been the core business of Henry
Fuller of the Cape Breton Boat Yard in Baddeck, Nova Scotia. And though the
necessary “repairs” may not have been very extensive, customs officers have
never been very exacting about the matter.

For many years quite a number of American boats spent years on end in
Canada without being officially imported, using this loophole that allowed
the boats to remain here if "major overhaul" and other large shipyard
related jobs were being done to them.  The intention of this rule was to
allow shipyards to bid on large projects without having to worry about
import duties if the job stretched out beyond 12 months. Legitimate large
repairs can be extended beyond 12 months, up to as long as four years (48
months) if required, and permission for the extension(s) is granted.

This loophole was being abused as many of these boats were really just
having light seasonal maintenance done.  Henry Fuller made a public issue
of it back in the fall of 2013 and so drew the attention of the government
agency tasked with enforcing the law, forcing their hand so enforcement
increased as a result.

2022-01-10 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
We have a friend with a "Natty" dodger, made by Genco in Ontario.  It was
purchased for his C 35 Mk.1 sight unseen.  I helped install it when it
arrived.  It fit perfectly, once we figured out exactly where it needed to
be installed.  He's had it for years now with no issues.

...so, if Genco have a pattern, and I expect they do for the C 37+, it
should fit with no issues.  Joe's comments on sending all measurements you
can is a good one though, in case your boat differs from the pattern bot in
boom height, or some such thing.

Stus-List Re: Dodger

2022-01-08 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
Hi Rob,

We have a dodger on our 37+ (actually a 37XL).  We're quite happy with our
dodger, it is tall and roomy but doesn't get in the way.  It has one top
panel, and five window panels (one large front window panel, two front
corners with windows, and two sides with large windows).  The front panel
zips open, or comes off completely, as do any or all of the other panels.
All panels can come off and the top panel and frame still stays in
place, if that is what you want, or you can fold it all down.  We tend to
put it on for the summer and just leave it up all the time as it doesn't
cause any issues getting up or down the companionway, and no issues sailing
the boat.  We don't even bother to take it down wehn racing for evening
races.

The side panels have large pockets sewn on the insides, below the windows.
We use these for all kinds of stuff, books, binoculars, phones, etc.

There is also an extra panel that zips on the back of the dodger and
extends to the backstay to provide sun and rain protection to the cockpit,
but that can't be used with the boom sheeted in as it gets in the way of
the main sheet and traveller.  We use it while running downwind on long
runs, and use it at anchor if we are expecting rain or too much sun.

Photos here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/pMGCqocwBVmCuBvy7

It was built by Eau Vent LM Inc. in Quebec but he doesn't seem to still be
in business.  He may have a pattern he might share.  He speaks french, his
english is Ok, but not great.  They do (did?) really good work. Tel. 418

That's my understanding, SeaTalk NG is "NMEA 2000", but with a couple of
extra wires so SeaTalk NG can also speak to the older SeatTalk (not NG)

Stus-List Re: C 37/40R for sale

2021-12-08 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
That is a very unique C 37R.  It was the 14th 37R built, called Wave
Trane, and it had quite a number of factory modifications to make it
stronger and stiffer than the usual C 37R.  As an example, all
bulkheads were tabbed to the deck from below, not usual for the 37R.  There
are a set of drawings at the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes at Kingston,
just for that boat.

It also has a weird looking one off custom keel designed by Britton Chance
Jr., designer of America’s Cup Boats among other things, which explains why
there are so many keel bolts.  Some info here:
http://c-c-37-40.blogspot.com/p/boat-design-c-37r-designer-robert-ball.html

Some of the links there, to download the drawings, aren't working just now,
Google changed something.  I'll see if I can get that linking cleared up
this evening.

Stus-List Re: Garboard

2021-11-22 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
I think the best trick is to use two powerful magnets, one inside, and one
outside.  Move the inside magnet and the outside one will follow.  Move the
inside one to the lowest spot you can get to, where you want the garboard
drain to be, and the magnet outside will show you where to drill the hole.

I sand the prop and shaft lightly with emery cloth, so maybe 100 grit and
then spray it on lightly to cover.  The prop still had full coverage when

RUST-OLEUM makes a GALVANIZING COMPOUND SPRAY which is a 93% pure zinc
coating. I can get it at the local hardware store.  We've used it the last
couple of seasons. The boat comes out with the zinc paint still on
the prop, and no growth whatsoever.  Only about 45 hours on the engine this
season though.

 First full season for me with my C 34 and I used Interlux Micron CSC,
 as that’s what the previous owner ’thought’ was on it when I bought it. A
 good friend has also used it on his Tartan 3700 for years with good
 results.



 I used 2 to 3 coats after a light sanding of the previous coat(s) and
 it has worked very well. Five months moored in the Northwest Arm in Halifax
 NS and it was surprisingly super clean when it came out at end of season… a
 little green scum in places but that’s it! Stainless prop shaft was caked
 with barnacles and growth, so I’m guessing bottom paint worked great where
 it was applied!



 Does anyone  coat their stainless prop shaft (or brass folding prop)
 with bottom paint?

Stus-List Re: Electric Bilge Pump

2021-10-17 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
Hi Rob,

Did your pump work on "Manual" in the past?  Meaning it is wired
correctly?  If so, the "Manual" position on the switch just bypasses the
float switch so there must be a break in that circuit from the switch to
the pump somewhere, perhaps a corroded connection.  Start with a
voltmeter (or a test lamp) on the back of the switch to see if there is
power at the terminal on the back of the switch for the "Manual" side when
the switch is in "Manual".  If so, then follow the wire to the next
junction and test it there., and so on.  If there is no power at the back
of the switch in "Manual, but there is power on teh "Auto" side when in the
"Auto" position, then your switch is bad.

Hope this helps.

Really, should there be a short or other electrical failure, the big source
of current that would heat up and burn up the wires and possibly set the
boat on fire, would be the boat's house or starting battery bank.  So the
fuse should be as close as possible to where the wires from the solar
panels tie into larger wires or bus bars (or the batteries if wired
direct to the battery bank).  As close as 6 inches if possible.

Hi Adam,

We draw 8' 2" so you won't have any trouble at any anchorage we use.  Some
of our favorites in the Bras d'Or are (Click on the names for charlets):

Maskells Harbour <http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/Maskells.pdf>
Johnstown Harbour
<http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/Johnstown.pdf>
Ross Pond <http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/RossPond.pdf>
Clarke Cove (Marble Mountain)
<http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/ClarkeCove.pdf> Actually
MacDonalds Cove behind the marble sand bar at the north of the linked
chartlet.
Blues Cove (Orangedale)
<http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/BluesCove.pdf> We tie to the
wharf here.  check out the Museum at the old Train Station..
Little Harbour
<http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/LittleHarbour.pdf>
McPhee Islands <http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/McPhee.pdf>
Washabuck River & MacIvers Cove
<http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/Washabuck.pdf> We go way up to
Campbells Cove and tuck in just to the north of red buoy AC12
Long Island <http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/LongIsland.pdf> We
anchor behind the small sand bar.
Island Point Harbour
<http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/IslandPoint.pdf> we go right
to the head of the harbour, almost to the sand beach.
Otter Harbour <http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/OtterHbr.pdf>

I don't know how much time you have.  You could also pop out the Great Bras
d'or and go up to:
Ingonish Harbour
<http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/SouthIngonish.pdf> We tuck
into Dunphys cove.
Neils Harbour <http://www.cruising-cape-breton.info/charts/NeilsHbr.pdf>

That will get you started.

And there is no charge to pass through the locks, neither at the Canso

to help you through, 24 hrs a day, and staff to help at St. Peters during
opening hours, 7 days a week.

Hi Bill,

The lake is connected to the North Atlantic by two natural channels; the
Great and Little Bras d'Or Channels which pass on either side of
Boularderie Island.  The great Bras d'Or is large enough for ocean going
ships such as smaller Cruise Ships and for  bulk (gypsum) freighters. The
southern tip of the lake is connected to the Atlantic Ocean via the St.
Peters Canal, two locks and a swing bridge to get in, first built for
shipping traffic in the 1860s.

I think this 2008 video of Bill Salvo's Hand Signals for Anchoring is a
good example of how stress free anchoring can be with a decent set of hand
signals.  Bill's are pretty intuitive I think.

Guess what the wings on the Boeing 777X are made out of...

While the composite wing is a first for the 777X family it is, in fact, the
fourth composite wing built by Boeing for a commercial aircraft after three
versions for the 787.

Boeing’s 777 was the first commercial airliner to incorporate composite
designs for structurally significant composite parts. Composites account
for 50% percent of structural weight of the more recent 787 Dreamliner, and
the 777X will have the world's largest aircraft wings formed from composite.

Yes.  One exception is that there is a school of thought that the traveller
should use something stretchy, like mountain climbing rope, to absorb the
shock of a jibe.  Apparently getting a piece of used climbing line

Stus-List Re: Removing lettering

2021-04-21 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
3M makes a type of rubber wheel you put in a drill and use to rub off
adhesive lettering.  Apparently they work well.

Google "3M Stripe Off Wheel"  There are videos out there showing how they
work.  They use them at work to strip decals off municipal vehicles,
including police cars, before we auction them off.  Some of these vehicles
have had those decals on for more than 10 years and they come right off.
You can still see where the decals had been, but only because the original
paint is in better condition where the decals were, protecting it.

That is what ceiling means on land.  Ceiling has a different meaning in a
boat.

ceilingPlanking attached to the inside of the frame
s or floor
s of a
wooden hull, usually to separate the cargo from the hull planking itself.
The ceiling has different names in different places: limber boards
,
spirketting
,
quickwork
. The
lower part of the ceiling is, confusingly to a landsman, what you are
standing on at the bottom of the hold of a wooden ship.[21]

NAUTILUS 40 was built by Niagara Nautic/Aztec Yachts (CAN), Niagara-on-the
Lake, Ontario, CAN
Designed by: Henry Adriaanse in 1979

A native of Holland, Henry Adriaanse worked for C Yachts in Canada
beginning in late 1960's and stayed with the company until 1976, when he
left to start his own design firm. According to his own account, he left
the boat design profession in the early 1990's.

Stus-List Re: Broken rod rigging attachment for babystay deck at keel - 37/40+

2021-02-17 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
Hi Bruce,

I haven't had this problem yet.  I may be able to provide a bit of info
though.

As you know, there are webs fiberglassed to the interior of the hull that
provide reinforcement.  These webs form a reinforcing grid that C
referred to as the 'Spider'.  These individual webs are generally shaped
like an inverted 'U' and are hollow.  I think, looking at the drawings I
have (they don't show this detail very well), there is a web running fore
and aft on the hull's centreline, from the transverse web that supports the
forward end of the mast step, to around the half height bulkhead that
supports the aft end of the forward berth.  I think the plate the rod is
attached to is glassed into the top of that web so you won't have to glass
to the hull to make the repair, just to the web (I think), which should be
easier to do.

Have a look at the 'Spider design' drawing at:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7X4Y5iVFYAKcDd4ZlhWNGZzdmM/view

I think the lower end of the rod is shown as a short little line, rising
from that fore and aft centreline web.

https://c-c-37-40.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html

Another drawing that my be helpful:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7X4Y5iVFYAKYTJxRDJBc3BvLWM/view

If we're lucky, Rob Ball may remember this detail, and may be able to let
us know if I am correct in my guess (or not).

I've used one of these for the last 10 years or so.  Sucks the oil up
through the dipstick tube when the oil is still hot.

Stus-List Re: Mega Hin

2020-10-02 Thread Ken Heaton
Hi Chuck,

As I understand it, your breakdown of this HIN looks correct to me, with
the 1978 Model Year, and the I indicator for month,  so built in April of
1978.

The model year usually changed in September, so a boat built between
September of 1977 and August of 1978 would have a 78 for the 1978 Model
year, even though it was built in 1977 or 1978.  This one seems to have
been built in I = April so the Model Year and Build Year would be the same,
1978.

Are you up to cutting a hole in one of the cockpit seats aft of the wheel
and building your own locker into that?  It is wasted space on the 35 Mk.1
as I remember.  You could put one of the skinny tanks in there I think,
with perhaps a cover made from the top you cut off the seat to make the
opening?  A 10 lb steel tank is only 9" in dia.

Re: Stus-List Source for Waltec parts in the US?

2020-08-23 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
I'm in Canada and I've replaced just the rubber washers on the Waltec
cartridges in the past with a standard size tap washer from the local
hardware store.

I've also changed the cartridges (at least two faucets in our house are
Waltec) but you don't need to if just the washers are worn or have hardened.

I know others have replaced their faucets but I don’t relish that project.
I would like to replace the cartridges, but Waltec appears to be a very
Canadian oriented brand and I don’t see a source that will ship to the US
reasonably.  Anyone know of a good place to buy parts here?

Re: Stus-List 1979 C 34: why hangers on thru-deck mast fitting?

2020-08-11 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
Yes, absolutely, they should have a bolt passing through them and through
the mast.  One long bolt is fine, washers and a self locking nut work
well, the bolt doesn't have to be tight, just not loose. If you find the
strap holes are a bit too high to get the bolt through them and the mast
try releasing the tension on ALL your halyards and the holes should line up.

The halyards and other lines coming down the mast turn in blocks attached
to the mast collar casting (partners) to run back to your line stoppers and
winches.  This creates an upward force on the deck at the mast collar,
trying to lift the deck up.  The resulting load on the mast collar and deck
is transferred back to the mast by these straps.

The other rod is probably attached to the baby stay track (assuming you
have a baby stay.  It should be just snug, or perhaps have just a slight
bit of tension when the baby stay is slack.

Re: Stus-List Cozy Cabin Heater Install examples?

2020-08-07 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
Did you consider the Dickinson Marine Newport P9000 Propane Fireplace ?
Was that one too expensive for your application?

The  Newport heaters is equipped with a flexible stainless double walled
vent pipe and a combination deckfitting/exhaust cap. Fresh air is pulled
from outside, through the outer pipe into the combustion chamber while
exhaust gas leaves the vessel through the inner pipe. The air from inside
the cabin is not being used for combustion so a fresh air vent is not
needed. Since this unit has isolated combustion, the exhaust gases are
being taken out via the chimney so no moisture is being created inside the
cabin.

It has an electric fan but the fan only draws 0.2 amps, is 12 volts.  You
don't need to use the fan on a low heat setting, only on medium to high
heat.

You do need a minimum of 20" of run for the chimney.

I'm pretty sure the forward sink won't drain very well, if at all, through

Re: Stus-List C 35 about to be scrapped in Pensacola, FL

2020-07-01 Thread Ken Heaton via CnC-List
The Mark 1 doesn't have the star and sword.  At least my friend's 1973 C
Mk.1 doesn't.

This article says that neither the Mark 1 or 2 have them:
http://www.cncphotoalbum.com/brochures/35foot/35mkii/index2.htm


The major features of the boats are as follow;
-The one feature which sets all MKI and II 35's apart from
all other C models is the absence of the trademark cove
stars at the fore and aft extensions of the cove stripe.

-The MKI did not receive the stars because of time limitations
for the first hull, thus there was no ties to install the
stars on the plug.

-The MKII plug was made off the C 35 MKI hull. The plug
being fibreglass could not (at that time) be modified, by
carving out stars,
