Stus-List thread reply and rod rigging

Hi, can someone tell me how to reply to a thread? Sorry, I can’t figure it out. So I started a new one. Next I looked at a 1984 CNC 35 M3 yesterday. Concerned about the rod rigging. This boat is run down so I don’t expect a record of rigging inspection or service. A rigger friend

hi David, welcome to the list. most correspondence happens on the email serve. So, you got that much right! As far as I know, and i don't have rod rigging and have only seen it, I think the main are of concern are the fittings to the rods. I believe worst case scenario is the have the

Not a pro but agree with Andrew. New style tangs and all the rod re-headed when we rebuilt our rig 10 years ago. Pretty comfortable with the safety/reliability aspects of older rod. Dave 1982 CC 37 - Ronin Sent from my iPad On Oct 12, 2014, at 08:50, Andrew Burton via CnC-List

David, The primary reason rod rigging was developed was to reduce weight, particularly weight aloft. Rod rigging is also supposed to reduce windage (not likely that one would notice) and is stronger pound for pound. The heads and spreader intersections are the weak links on rod rigs.

Rod can be reheaded for about $2000. Should be done every ten years per Navtec. Joel On Sunday, October 12, 2014, David Dawes via CnC-List cnc-list@cnc-list.com wrote: Hi, can someone tell me how to reply to a thread? Sorry, I can’t figure it out. So I started a new one. Next I looked at

i did not see the new Redline 41, But i hope that it is more than slithtly higher quality than a Bene or a Hanse. i charter a brand new (1month) Hanse in the BVI last year. nice boat, but the quality of the inside is fairly cheap and the deck hardware is minimal... this is just not the same

Dave - In addition to the comments on rod rigging, and as a point of reference for you on costs, I had an old Stearns headstay/furler and replaced it this fall with a Harken. This required that I add a new forestay. For multiple reasons I went with rod vs wire. Total cost for just the

David, I purchases a 1984 CC 35 MK3 last fall and had the rod all replaced. The cost was $8K. However, the boat had been stored in doors every winter since it was built and except for the rudder was totally dry. It was on the market for $38K and I eventually purchased it for $24. Add the

There's another online nav game with which some may be familiar: Virtual-loup-de-mer.org French website but most interface is available in English. It's not as graphically fancy as Volvo but seems to be more for 'serious' nav players. I have been on and off it over last 10 years and some of the

For around 50-75K you can get a late 80s CC 41 with PHRF around 70. I assume the Redline 41 will come in somewhere around PHRF 25. Jerry. CC. 27 V JJ. Sent from my iPhone On Oct 12, 2014, at 10:15 AM, Bruno Lachance via CnC-List cnc-list@cnc-list.com wrote: i did not see the new

In 2011 I had a toggle break on the starboard jump stay on my 1976 CC 38. It caused me to question the integrity of the rod rigging. It was, after all, 36 years old at the time and there was no previous indication of any trouble brewing. But my future plans include offshore cruising and at
