I have had a 1980 version #593 for 24 years and I have had some of the issues you mentioned. Some deck crazing near stanchions where I believe previous owners (and maybe my boat partner and maybe myself) have put too much stress on the stanchion (docking by feel). A small chainplate leak, fixed by

I picked up a Johnson Controls group 31 AGM a year ago, a friend picked up 3 for his house bank. The 200 minutes reserve capacity is a plus, as is the bulk charge rate of about 40 amps in my setup. A downside is they weigh 71 lbs.

Stus-List Boat batteries

I replaced mine a few years ago and went with Northstar AGMs (Group 31). These were highly rated then by several reviews. They claim to be made from 'virgin' (as opposed to recycled) lead, are ~ $350 each and weigh at least 70 lbs. The ones I got previously from Sams club (AGM--forgot the

Re: Stus-List Battery replacement time

When considering anything other than lead acid wet cells keep in mind that all of your charging systems (alternator, solar, wind, and shore power) will need to be properly setup for the alternative technology and chemistry. Wet cells aren't perfect but they offer a tremendous value and make

Re: Stus-List Battery replacement time

Here is another thing to consider when redesigning/replacing your batteries. The orientation of wet cells can affect their longevity. http://www.pbase.com/mainecruising/flooded_battery_orientation Josh On Jul 9, 2017 1:15 PM, "Persuasion37 via CnC-List" wrote: > Tim >

Maine sailor has his opinions and a great write up here: http://www.pbase.com/mainecruising/deep_cycle_battery There is a pretty solid concensus that better batteries weigh more. If you are looking to source from a conventional store then find the heaviest battery at the best price. AGMs are

My neighbour here (Whitby ON) took his "new" 35-2 out two weeks ago and the engine went bang. He bought the boat from the widow of his best friend, and this was to have been an inaugural sail, he was out with friends and family and received a tow back. Pretty discouraged I think. Email me

I too am looking to replace my batteries. Current ones are group 27 agm's that have been in use since before 2003 when 2 owners ago installed them. I have 6 house and 1 starting. Due to the location I have to stick with the AGM's. I will be following this thread, and chiming in if I find any

Re: Stus-List Battery replacement time

IMHO gels are superior to AGM if you have the correct charging systems for them. If you do go AGM, *by far* the cheapest way is getting GRP 31 AGMs from Sam's Club. They are relabeled Dekas and thus identical to West Marine AGMs for literally half the price. Lifeline will be a LOT more money and

Every boater has an opinion on batteries. I've been using Delco Voyager wet cell batteries for almost 20 years. Usually get 7-8 years life. Except for the spill prevention aspect of AGMs, I think the Voyagers offer the most bang for the buck. The pro fishermen like them also. On the other

Actually, the "pin size blisters" may be more what some of us call gelcoat pox. Older C's were prone to gelcoat pox near the boot stripe/waterline area. The pox is pretty much limited to the gelcoat. I think C applied the gelcoat a bit too thick in this area. I fixed Touche's pox and applied

Hi Greg, Thanks for the info. I was wondering how to dismantle the cabinetry. What do you have to do and where are the screws? Do you have to take the sink area apart and then the back panel? How is that back pannel connected to the side bulkheads? It sure looks like a major job and a PITA.
