Re: Stus-List 33-2 secondary winches and t-track - worth considering?

Dave, We use sheets and twings on our spinnaker. No guys needed. This way we can end-for-end the pole pretty easy, at least in moderate air. The twings go to a small block on the rail near the shrouds. The sheets go to blocks on the stern quarters. In heavy air sheets and guys are

Re: Stus-List Moldy Lines

I bring all my lines home in the fall and put them in mesh washing bags in the washing machine with detergent and bleach and fabric softener. They come out very clean and plush, but I worry a bit that it wears them. And it can ruin the mesh washing bags. Cheers, Randy - Original

Re: Stus-List macerator switch

On our 1989 C 30-2, our macerator switch is on the vertical face of the molded in "vanity" in our head, just below the shower sump drain switch. It very much seems like the right place for it since it is close to the Y valve and head discharge/tank discharge thru-hull. It is a waterproof switch

I installed a Natures Head on my CS 30 three yrs ago. I've not yet fiber-glassed over the inlet and outlet thru hulls - but I feel confident enough with the composting head that I'm planning to get it done. In my case I didn't have a holding tank,

Nature's head? I use it every time I'm in the woods. And...with regard to plumbing reductions, consider a prostatectomy. The increase in flow is significant. (Sorry, Joe. No experience to actually answer your question.) Dennis C. On Tue, May 9, 2017 at 3:35 PM, Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List

Chuck, your last point caught my attention, "I had a bunch of gray gunk damming the flow of water from the hatch. "; that grey gunk was very likely old butyl tape which had seeped from the hatch and also which caused the leaks you were experiencing... Richard s/v Bushmark4; 1985 C 37

Re: Stus-List the foam monster that ate the v-berth

I do have a Tufted Topper - got one years ago. It did help with the crappy old cushions and REALLY is nice on top of the new mattress. As far as moisture goes, that remains to be seen. I don't see any reason it will be any better or any worse than the old cushions. You can always put this stuff

Stus-List List Butyl tape or is there something better?

I removed the companionway hood on Morning Sky (35-3) and resealed with LifeSeal but wish I had used butyl. The screws seemed adequate, as there appears no big structural issues...but there is a shallow 'crease' around the perimeter of the hood (not the drain gutters to port and starboard) that I

Re: Stus-List the foam monster that ate the v-berth

I also have the original 1973 cushions that need replacing. I like the idea of the memory foam option. Is there any problem with the cushion holding moisture from humidity. I plan to put something under the cushion like dri-deck tiles. Cheers, Tom Power Invictus C
