I replaced my tank - which, coincidentally, was about 35 years old – because I 
was looking for a source of persistent diesel smell and discovered some pinhole 
leaks on the bottom of the tank. The tank sat on a wooden platform with no air 
space or cushioning under the tank. So the pinholes were apparently the result 
of corrosion from moisture trapped between tank and wood.

 

When I reinstalled the new tank, I bought some 6”x6”x1/8” rubber squares used 
to make plumbing gaskets (about $.50 each at Lowes) and installed 5 or 6 of 
them under the tank to provide an air gap.

I took my tank out last October on haulouthad a pin hole leak in my 33 year 
old aluminum tankkept the original tank with its fittingshad a machine 
shop weld a new bottom to my tank and at the time had them reduce the 'depth' 
of my tank by one inch.my original tank with the 'fittings specifically the 
infill connector' was a small fraction maybe 3/16" too big to get the tank out 
of the lazarettefinally I just pulled it outafter I noticed I had 
crushed the aluminum 90 deg elbow infill connector by the same 3/16" .no 
big deal...with the repaired now tank one inch smaller, getting it back in was 
a breeze.I went from 20 gals to say 18.5 galsnot a problem for me the 
way I use my boat and ability to refuel.

When I reinstalled my tank, all the 4 hose connections were really tightC 
didn't waste an inch on any hose when they built my boat.the one inch drop 
in tank height compelled me to either get all new longer hoses or loosen 
existing clamps holding the 4 hoses to bulkheadsI loosened the 
clampsnot as neat as before but not as costly and difficult as replacing 
all the hoses.  After I reclamped the tank to its holding station and loosening 
clamps to make the 4 hoses to connect, I then thought about putting one inch 
whatever under the tank to bring it back to its original position and the hose 
connections.but that's now 20/20 for this genius!

On my 38 mk2, R the tank was easy. Drain the tank and remove the 
hoses. IIRC, there is a 90 degree elbow in the top of the tank that 
also needs to be removed. From the starboard lazarette, remove the 
straps that hold the tank on the platform on which it sits. Slide the 
tank to starboard so you can reach it through the top of the 
lazarette. Rotate the tank so the former starboard side is now the 
top, and lift it out of the lazarette. There was a generous inch of 
clearance around my old tank when it came out… so I had the new tank

If you want to remove the tank as is, first, measure your tank to 
determine where it will be removed from the engine compartment.if it 
coming out through a lazarete, measure the opening from the engine 
compartment to the actual lazarete and then the opening from the 
lazarete to the cockpit.


If you are going to take a sawsall to the tank and simply cut it up 
before you remove it, you don't need exact measurements for these.


After measuring and it will fit out through the openings or cutting it 
up before hand, empty the tank of fuelget a pump and adequate fuel 
storage containers.


Then disconnect all hoses to the tankif diesel, usually 4 
connections, 1. infill  2. vent  3. fuel line to engine  4. backfill 
from engine to tank


Then undo clamps holding tank in place.

Remove tank.

That stability graph definitely shows the 29-2 as tender. 

However I could wash the windows on the 25-2 if I had a mind to. I also
owned a 33-1 which, when we were racing, would have the person responsible
for helping the genoa around when tacking, ankle deep in water if the wind
was up and they were slow in getting off the low side. I don't see the 33-1
on the chart.

I'm reluctant to argue with a proven methodology, but I find the 29-2 to be
both stiff and forgiving compared to the other 2. To me the 29-2  heels to a
certain point where the rail is still not buried  and then says you really
should do something with the main and if you don't  it will start to round
up rather than continue to heel.  Is it possible that this behaviour is due
to the hull shape and this is not captured in the stability test which is
static. If so that could explain why the boat is rated as tender, but will
only heel to a certain point in real world conditions.

I experienced this occasionally when I had a C 25-2. It would only happen
when the sailing hard to weather with the rail buried. If I were going to
tighten the hull/deck joint screws I'd start with those closest to the
chainplates.

 

This is not an issue with the 29-2 as it is a very stiff boat and doesn't
appear possible to bury the rail.

 Agree with Randy...I had both a 25-2 and a 29-2; I rarely buried the rail on 
the 25 stuck it routinely on the 29I now have a 37 and look forward to

Stus-List C and C 25 water in lockers under settees

2016-06-14 Thread Bmue via CnC-List
Hi Mark 
Did you figure out where the water is coming from?
We seem to be having exactly the same problem. During the deck restore the 
seeps we used to experience occasionally during rainstorms were fixed. Now we 
sometimes find water in the settee lockers during/after sailing. it stays there 
as there is no connection to the bilge (which has occasionally some water in it 
but nothing to worry about.)
I crawled around inside the boat trying to find any seeps while underway and 
found nothing along rails. 

Any ideas?
 Is there a schematic available that shows how the settee lockers are connected 
to the rest of the boat?
 Did you drill drainage holes so the water can drain into the bilge?

water in each bin. After I dry it out, it stays dry until we go for a sail. 
What I'm thinking is there is a leak in the seal in between the topsides and 
the hull seam, and sea spray forces its way into the hull on the down wind 
side. I was thinking that I need to tighten the bolts along the toe rail that 
hold the topsides to the hull. I've read online that you hold the screw steady 
on top and turn the bolt underneath. I believe there is butyl tape in between 
the hull and the topsides. I was thinking of giving each bolt a 1/4 turn. Is my 
thinking on this correct? Thanks a lot for your help.

Re: Stus-List c and c 29-2 mast cap.

2014-09-22 Thread Gary Nylander via CnC-List
If the 29 is like the 30, then the whole top of the mast (aluminum casting) 
comes off - it rests on the top of the mast, but the casting goes down inside 
of the mast. The sheaves are in the top piece, and you must take it off to get 
the sheave axles out. Mine is secured with about 8 stainless screws, evenly 
spaced around the casting. It is a tight fit, it took some prying with small 
pry bars to get it out.

I agree - I think the 29 is keel stepped and if so, keeping the lowers in place 
and using the pole topping lift can hold the mast in place while you work on 
the top. But, your crane must hold you up there without any help from halyards 
and such, as they are all attached to or through the top casting.

  On the 35-3, you would not have to affect the standing rigging to change a 
sheave.  It should be possible from a bosun's chair (at the crane or on other 
halyards).  I would suggest going up to check what it looks like before 
gathering the right tools and planning the job.  On the 35-3, the sheaves are 
rigged similar to those on the boom.  There is a stainless cover over one end 
of the sheave axle.  When that is removed, you should be able to push the axle 
out and remove the sheave (holding it as others suggested).  Yours may be 
different, but it may not be necessary to remove the mast cap.

Stus-List c and c 29-2 mast cap

2014-09-22 Thread Jean-Francois J Rivard via CnC-List

I would just go ahead and pay to un-step the mast.

 I was all worried about that before doing it last spring.  It took 10
 minutes of taping the rod threads (To mark the turnbuckle position
 adjustment),   10 minutes for 'Stumpy' to pick it up with the travel lift
 and set it down on saw horses (So smooth, a complete non-issue) , and 85
 bucks for the round trip.

 Best 85 bucks I ever spent.  There are so many other things you can fix,
 clean, lube, inspect, replace, and improve while you're at it..

We sometimes hire a crane tow truck to unstep masts or to lift out an

Re: Stus-List c and c 29-2 mast cap

2014-09-22 Thread Michael Brown via CnC-List
Ouch! The club here has two smaller fixed cranes and a pole cat - a used 
utility truck with a
boom arm. The smallest fixed crane will do masts easily up to 30 - 32' boats. 
All are available
for free with volunteers operating the pole cat.

For haul out the club hires in two large cranes. So we get the masts unstepped 
and stored,
the cradles brought in by forklift and laid out, the boats hauled, stored over 
the winter, the boats launched,
the masts stepped and cradles stored for $900 on a 30' boat.

It is self service for the mast unstepping / stepping and layout on the mast 
racks, but there always
is lots of people to help.


I have removed and serviced the original sheaves on my 30-1 twice. I cleaned 
them up when I went
from wire to rope and replaced the Oilite bearings, then replaced the Oilite 
bearings again two years
later. The bearings were crushing a bit and the play allowed some sideways 
misalignment, ending
up in scoring the sides of the sheave and the mast casting. Also lots of 
friction at high loads.

Last year I replaced the two jib sheaves with Acetyl ( Acetal - Delrin ). I 
found ISOMAT had the correct
size and were the two piece design I wanted. So a smaller donut goes around 
the SS shaft. I purchased
that undersized and drilled it out to be a press fit on the shaft. The Sheave 
goes over the donut and
uses the increased diameter as a plain bearing. The Acetyl is very hard, in 
fact rated for use with wire.
So far this year, including numerous sail changes at over 20 kts in the LO300, 
the sheaves have
worked very well. Lighter weight, no grease required.

Will check them when I pull the mast next month.

2014-09-22 Thread Marek Dziedzic via CnC-List
Apparently it pays to belong to a good Club.

We do, generally, the same. 

Up to 5000 t (~1 lb.) boat -  you can do it for free using one of the two 
fixed cranes. Of course, you have to have means to move the boat from under the 
crane afterwards. There are service providers that would do a complete haul out 
(or launch), including mast unstepping (stepping), for about under $300.

Or the Club can do it for you, when we hire a couple of commercial cranes and 
we do about 100 boats in one shot. I think the fee is ~$150 per boat. There is 
a lot of volunteers involved, as well, but that does not appear on the invoice. 
Then you do the mast yourself using a mast crane (again for free, or rather , 
included in the membership fees already).

We do it twice a year, so, I guess, we have to be reasonably well organised.

‎On my 26 the mast cap comes off as one unit with the main and 2 jib halyard sheaves all together. It's then quite easy to do the sheaves at the workbench.  sam :-) From: Tim Goodyear via CnC-ListSent: Sunday, September 21, 2014 8:08 PMTo: Bev Parslow; cnc-list@cnc-list.comReply To: Tim GoodyearSubject: Re: Stus-List c and c 29-2 mast cap.On the 35-3, you would not have to affect the standing rigging to change a sheave. It should be possible from a bosun's chair (at the crane or on other halyards). I would suggest going up to check what it looks like before gathering the right tools and planning the job. On the 35-3, the sheaves are rigged similar to those on the boom. There is a stainless cover over one end of the sheave axle. When that is removed, you should be able to push the axle out and remove the sheave (holding it as others suggested). Yours may be different, but it may not be necessary to remove the mast cap.TimMojito35-3 Branford, CTOn Sep 21, 2014, at 7:14 PM, Bev Parslow via CnC-List cnc-list@cnc-list.com wrote:We have a mast tower at the club.

Re: Stus-List c and c 29-2 mast cap.

Hi Bev,

Removing the masthead crane (the thing you're calling a cap) will 
require dropping the forestay  backstay, for most older rigs. This 
is an unusual practice if servicing at a mast tower. If you have a 
roller furling jib then it's definitely not worth the bother.


Normally you secure the sheave and drive out the axle, as others have 
mentioned. The best way to secure the sheave... and it is very 
important to secure he sheave, is to attach a length of PVC tape 
(commonly called electricians tape) to some small stuff (string) 
and lay the tape into the sheave. Rotate sheave to retrieve the tape 
and continue to pull the string through. When you have the string 
end, hitch it to the other part then tighten down to lasso the 
sheave. This way it is captured and will not fall very far down into 
the mast if you lose control of it.


Cheers, Russ
Sweet 35 mk-1

It is no more of a hassle to fly a symmetrical chute on a 29 than it is on
the J-24 (I have a 30-1 that I race every now and then and race on a J-24
each week). It is just bigger. You will probably need an additional person
(we use 5 on the 30 and 4 on the 24). An adjustable spin track on the mast
would be useful. The inner stay can be made to be easily disconnected.

If the boat doesn't have a pole, track, extra winches, then you could
consider one of those deck mounted extendable poles and fly an asymmetrical
chute.

It is interestingthe PHRF for a 29 is most likely higher numerically
than the J-24. Around here, the 24 is 171 and a 29 is around 180.

But, it is a lot more cruising friendly and powerful.

Subject: Stus-List CC 29-2 Spinnaker


I am considering buying a CC 29-2 (1983) and would like to know how/if a 
symmetrical spinnaker would work on these boats. I am looking at a boat 
nearby, but it only has a cruising asymmetrical spinnaker.  My current boat

is a J/24 and I am looking for something a little more comfortable but also

performance oriented. Since I have a crew for racing on the J/24, we would 
also want to set a spinnaker on the CC.  The problem is the baby/inner 
stay that bisects the fore deck. Yes, I understand that we could disconnect

it for the downwind leg, but that seems to be added complexity that I would

rather avoid. The concern that I have is that the only photo of a 
symmetrical spinnaker I can find on the WEB is the original sales brochure.

So, I am thinking its just a big hassle to fly a symmetrical on these 
boats. Any thoughts?
 -Ken
