Re: Stus-List Deisel Fuel Additives?

Hi Richard, Off-road fuel has a red dye to indicate road taxes have not been paid. The diesel comes form the same stack as marine/off-road fuel. I know it seems crazy that the higher taxed fuel is more expensive but c'est le vie. I suggest an additive with each fill, regardless of where

Re: Stus-List Deisel Fuel Additives?

With apologies for re-raising a previously discussed topic; my boat is a 1985 37 with the original Yanmar 3HMF 27 hp; I went for my annual diesel fill up and the pumps were out of order; so I had to get diesel from a street gas station; although the cost was almost a dollar per gallon

Re: Stus-List VC17

First coat of bottom paint has to go onto Interprotect 2000 while the interprotect is still tacky, if I'm recalling correctly. I've overcoated Interprotect with Micron CSX this way and had good results. Graham Collins Secret Plans C 35-III #11 On 2015-10-12 10:57 AM, Chuck S via CnC-List

Green dye means it was taxes as motor fuel rather than red non taxed farm fuel. Joel On Monday, October 12, 2015, Richard N. Bush via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > With apologies for re-raising a previously discussed topic; my boat is a > 1985 37 with the original Yanmar 3HMF 27 hp;

Re: Stus-List Autopilot Recommendations

I had a Raymarine ST4000 wheel drive that worked but in some circumstances not well. Trying to use it upwind into waves had it steering all over the place, and playing with the damping settings didn't solve it. At lower speeds it would hunt a lot. At the Toronto boat show I spoke with the

Brent, That's weird. I'm taking a quess. Maybe there was some sanding dust on the hull after sanding? Did you wipe the bottom with rags dipped in a solvent, before painting? Is it peeled off or worn off. Got any pictures? Chuck Resolute 1990 C 34R Broad Creek, Magothy River, Md -

Re: Stus-List Diesel Fuel Additives?

No, it's all low sulfur. Green just tells the cops that you paid the road tax. Surprising , Truck diesel here is 2.69, and at our club (Red Boat Diesel) is $2.03. Put Bio-Bore additive in always. Or it will turn Black! Bill Coleman C 39, Erie From: CnC-List

Re: Stus-List Roller Reefing Boom

Just wanted to respond to moving the boat and the future commute. I kept my boat close to home for 10 years. It took me 45 minutes to get to my slip. I had to run my boat 2 hours to the nearest race. In two hours a sailboat can take you 10 miles from home, while a car can travel 100 miles in

Re: Stus-List Deisel Fuel Additives?

I'm a bit mixed on additives. I've tried numerous times to get a straight and scientific answer but to no avail. Some things that are prominent in my memory are as follows. Most diesel already has an additive package to prevent bio growth the question is, "How long does it last?" The bio-bore

Re: Stus-List VC17

FWIW, Didn't have any problem getting bottom paint to stick to my Interprotect. I scuffed the Interprotect w 80 grit to provide tooth as on the instructions. No problems after 8 years. No problem getting paint to stick to later interprotect paint when I changed the depth and speed sensor

Re: Stus-List Deisel Fuel Additives?

All diesel is made to the same set of standards. The red stuff just has a dye in it to indicate that the highway fuel tax has not been paid. When your engine was built, diesel fuel had 5000 parts per million of Sulphur content. The Sulphur was a significant factor in lubricating the injection

Re: Stus-List VC17

Yeah it is weird. The paint under the hull sticks fine. It resists 4000 psi from the pressure washer. I thought dust might be the problem too but I fooled that guess by spraying the hull with fresh water a day before I painted it. Air temperature was good, humidity was fine. It's a mystery.

Re: Stus-List VC17

Graham is correct. The Interprotect literature indicates you should apply the first coat of bottom paint before the Interprotect fully cures so that it bonds with the Interprotect and acts as a primer. You touch the partially cured material with a knuckle. When it is cured enough that you leave a
