Re: Stus-List Slight mold inside

Ron: I'm not sure what's in it. I doubt it's unique, surely there are lots of similar products out there. I guess my point was that as much as bleach is the old standard, it does sometimes cause collateral damage. Also as soon as the chlorine reacts or evaporates, it done and gone. Whereas the

Re: Stus-List Slight mold inside

There is a product called Mold Control available at Canadian Tire and other hardware stores. Clean surfaces conventionally and then you spray it on and let it dry on the surface. As it dries, it kills the mold spoors. It kills the mold and little else. When i first tried it at home I found it

Re: Stus-List spinnaker rig

Others have expressed their appreciation for an asymmetric spinnacker which I also echo. All of their points are valid, however you may find that the effort involved with setting the A-sym just isn't worth the mild improvement in speed/performance over an oversized headsail and whisker pole.

Re: Stus-List spinnaker rig

My thru-the-mast fitting is located about 3 feet above the spreaders. The downhaul is mid deck (about 2 feet forward of the cabin) on a folding pad-eye. I have a block there and the line runs back along the cabin (one fairlead at the front/side of the dorade box and another at the rear) to a

Neil, I appreciate your offer, but isn't White Lake 100+ miles from St. Joseph? The boat is at Anchor's Way and listed on Yachtworld & craigslist. I'm not quite at the point of taking you up on your offer as I'm awaiting the sellers response to some questions I've asked. I'm sure you've seen the

Re: Stus-List Slight mold inside

You can kill mold with bleach. You can prevent mold by allowing air to circulate through the boat. Here in the Pacific NW, we get lots of rain in the fall and winter, but I get no mold in the main cabin. I do get some in the head if I don't leave the door ajar. Alan Bergen 356 Mk III Thirsty

Stus-List Slight mold inside

Greetings folks,I've discovered that I'm getting a slight mold growth on the inside glass (GRF) in the off season.  Can anyone suggest a mild cleaner that won't scratch the GRF?  I'm worried that something harsh might leave microscopic pits that would promote more mold growth in the off

Re: Stus-List Speaking of oxalic acid

Are you insulting my crapamaran? I mean, catamaran? :) Actually, the oxalic acid seems to work well on the brown stains. I got some at my local Ace Hardware. It does, however, have a deleterious affect on the decal striping on the hull. The issue now are the "footprints" of the lichens and

Re: Stus-List Speaking of oxalic acid

I have not used this myself, but I have seen folks clean severely stained hulls using cheap “Dollar General” toilet bowl cleaner. At 24oz for a buck, it may be worth a try especially for something heading to Craigslist. - Paul E. 1981 C 38 Landfall S/V Johanna Rose Fort Walton Beach, FL

Re: Stus-List spinnaker rig

Kevin, First, the elevation of the exit/block for the pole lift is not critical. +/- 2-4 feet should be OK. Second, many of the older models had a "donut" on the forward side of the mast for a pole lift exit. Simply a hole with a round metal washer-like fitting. My 35-1 has one of the donuts

Re: Stus-List spinnaker rig

I will be prepping my mast next week and could take measurements. I doubt you would want to mount a normal block on the front of the mast if you are carrying an overlapping headsail. It will rub and maybe catch on every tack. The 30-1 factory spinnaker uphaul fitting was a feedthrough with less

Re: Stus-List Broke a Zerc fitting

Depending how close it is to the fiberglass, put a small amount of heat to the fitting with highly directed propane flame alternating with penetrating oil and heat again. This drives the oil around the threads. Then use the extractor s l o w l y. BTDT many, many times with tractor

Richard, I am about 30 miles from St. Joe. Just went to Wolf's Marine in Benton Harbor on Wednesday. Where is the boat and what is your time frame? I could go over and take a look and snap a few pictures for you. We used to be in South Haven. Just up the coast, but have since moved

Stus-List Broke a Zerc fitting

After greasing the rudder post I managed to snap off the grease fitting. I was planning to use a screw extractor to try to get it out. Any tips or tricks before I make it worse? If I have to drill and tap, what size tap? Thanks! -- Joel 301 541 8551

Stus-List Anyone near St. Joseph, Michigan?

Was wondering if there is anyone near St. Joseph, Michigan that could take a cursory look at a C 33 Mk2 for me. I'm on the other side of Lake Michigan and would like to know that it's not a total waste of time before making the trip over there to look at it. I'm sure I could do something to make

Re: Stus-List spinnaker rig

I'm sure you are going to hear this many times but if you don't race why not go with an asymmetric spinnaker. No pole, no down haul and no lift. Much easier to fly and better for reaching in light wind. Jerry J Sent from my iPhone > On Apr 28, 2017, at 7:41 AM, Kevin Deluzio via CnC-List

Stus-List spinnaker rig

Hi All, This is my second season with my new to me 1980 30-1. I would like to rig it for a spinnaker this year. Not interested in racing with one, but I like the idea of using it for light winds downwind sailing. So I have to install a block for the pole lift and I’m wondering where to
