Re: Stus-List Raymarine exits the instrument, vhf and autopilot business!

So, I'm a neophyte compared to you guys when it comes to electronics and instruments etc. But I wanted an inexpensive electronic wind instrument for my boat this year, and chose the SailTimer Wind Instrument ( http://www.sailtimerwind.com ) over the basic Raymarine i40. Given Raymarine's

I have experienced keel bolt weeping on my C 41 early on. After some detailed efforts, I determined that is was the result of improperly drilled bolt holes in the hull/keel stub. When I removed the nut, and the washer from the leaking bolt, It was obvious. C had drilled a bolt hole in the

Re: Stus-List Keel bolt weeping

Barbara, I will agree with the others. Try tightening the keel bolts first. It is certainly the cheapest option and the first remedy that I would try. Does your model have a keel bolt under the mast? If so, that one is probably loose due to not being tightened regularly. Is there any

Yes, tape the stripes then sand up to them. I'd say wet sand with 220 or 320, depending on how much shine you're after. If the tape edge gets messed up, just re-tape it before you paint. I'd use awl grip, again. I would call the techs at the company and ask if you need to prime over the old awl

I think you're looking in the right direction. I have one of the Par Max pumps (not sure which one) and it does a fine job. It runs pretty much whenever I open a faucet as I don't have an accumulator tank, but that's OK with me. I know when the pump is running, but it is not obnoxious. I don't
