Polyurethane doesn’t seal as well though. Don’t ask how I ( and my new flooring) know. Neil Andersen 1982 C FoxFire Neil Andersen 20691 Jamieson Rd Rock Hall, MD 21661 From: CnC-List on behalf of rick bushie via CnC-List Sent: Sunday, January 6, 2019 4:43

Re: Stus-List 1974 36 mk2 questions

Hello all, Had a look at the 35 mk2 in Victoria, and while it will be a great boat for someone, we've decided it's just not for us. There is a lot of value in recent upgrades, but the quality of workmanship is not quite what I'd like to see, and there is a bit too much complexity in the engine

Re: Stus-List Stair Treads and companion way finishes

I use polyurethane for all interior brightwork. It cures harder. The name brand polyurethanes don’t have UV protection, but we are talking about cabin use here. I refinished Anchovy’s companionway ladder with big box store poly two seasons ago and I see no signs of wear. Rick Bushie

Re: Stus-List 1974 36 mk2 questions

Thanks for all the info. Going to look at the boat today, so I will report back. I was invited on board another '74 35 mk2 yesterday, after viewing a Catalina (am I allowed to say that here...?) 30 and a CS 27. Needless to say, I preferred the C, and it just made me more curious about Callisto. If

Re: Stus-List Ye Olde Stuck Seacock issue

Following up on my note below, I just reviewed an excerpt from my copy of This Old Boat (newer addition). Don Casey is unequivocally in favor of Marelon and says he has seen almost no evidence to support the concern about strength (aside from a broken handle on one small seacock). In his

Re: Stus-List Ye Olde Stuck Seacock issue

Thanks, Josh. I have no opinion one way or the other aside from what I’ve heard and read — which may be pure fiction. Admittedly, it has been a while since I heard negative comments about Marelon. Perhaps the concern was more about the uncertainty of change. Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 5,

Re: Stus-List Colour match question

When the hull was painted on our boat I was able to use AwlGrip’s AwlCraft 2000 Pale Gold (F9145). Big effort and cost for a little project If you are only concerned about the cove stripe, then I would second Dennis’ recommendation. I used the same 3M product and it lasted for many years. Easy

Re: Stus-List Colour match question

Many of us have had good luck with 3M Scotchcal striping tape. I used 3M 73403 5/8 inch metallic gold for the cove stripe on Touche'. Still looks good after several years. See: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_sb5TfIENvsckJWcWNldEFydjg Shop around. Pricing varies online. Dennis C. Touche'

Stus-List Stair Treads and companion way finishes

Has anyone recently refinished companion way stair treads and teak? If so what stood up best? Has anyone used the fairly New Petit Sea Gold finish? It has good PR from Petit but I have seen a few reviews indicating it did not stand up well in exposed locations. Best recommended finish for

Stus-List Colour match question

We want to repaint the cove stripe on our 1975 C 30 MK1. Any suggestions on matching the original colour (e.g. pantone colour spec) and/or what product(s) to use to re-do it? David J. Morris, MBA President, D.J. Morris & Associates Ltd. 427 Division Street, Kingston, ON Canada K7K 4A8 Tel.

Re: Stus-List Ye Olde Stuck Seacock issue

I prefer the now 45 year old Groco bronze seacocks on my 35 MKII to anything plastic. I believe my boat spent the vast majority of it’s life in salt water. Even though some are located in difficult to access spaces i have managed to keep them operational once every 5 years for insurance survey. My

Uh oh, tempers can flare when the new F-N bomb comes out I think Marlon is basically PA6 or PA66 Nylon. It's become a very common material in a lot of adverse applications. Makita, Milwaukee, Festool, Hilti and other heavy duty tool manufacturers use it extensively. The automotive industry
