Somewhere in your there is a high resistance. Maybe a bad crimp, corroded
connection, bad float switch? Even a faulty breaker. A few voltage
measurements with respect to the battery negative should show where the voltage
is being lost. Voltage cannot disappear, it is being dropped
I have a peculiar problem. I have a brand new whale gulper pump, 24 volt. I
have 24 volts going to it, but just as soon as I connect the leads, nothing
happens, and the voltage goes to zero in those leads. But it does not throw
a breaker. Red to red, black to Black. Does anyone have any ideas what
I am in the process of redoing my plexiglass ports, it’s the second boat I have
done and the second time was way easier. If you are trying to remove the glass,
try a small thin flexible scraper wherever the glass is loose and separate the
glass from the plexus epoxy by pulling the scraper
Wedges can be easily made out of oak or a similar hard wood. I leave a lip on
top so they don’t fall inside the boat and stay where you put them. Any wood
shop can make them. I also use oak shims in a fat T pattern to keep the mast
base in the appropriate spot at the bottom and help the mast
You could not have had a better boat to do what you did. And your C 30
will continue to please somebody

I was happy to sell my Grady White.
Bought for $6000
The engine through a rod through the block.
Towed it to the shop and got a $12,000 repair estimate.
Another customer saw the boat and offered $6000 for the boat as-is.
SOLD

I’ve never bought that canard about being happy to sell a boat. From my Lasers
to my C 40 I’ve hated to see each leave. A sad day for you, but new horizons
beckon.

Good questions. The design on the mast comes right off. It's from a fish
aquarium. Taped on.The overhead in the v-berth is painted on.JimSEA YA ! 38

I used a sharp chisel to remove the old glue. There was a bit of damage where
the gelcoat pulled off. I patched it with white epoxy filler and the new
acrylic covered over all my shady filling and sanding.

I have to ask - do the designs on the mast and the overhead cloud design
come off, or are they painted on.
Also is the boat a shower-stall version or a combined head/shower
version. THANKS

I’m using Yanmar premixed coolant which I get from my local marine store at a
reasonable price. I changed mine last week after three years and the old stuff
looked the same as the new. There are about 200 hours since the last change so
it was time.

I use rubber wedges on my 30-1. I don’t remember where I sourced them but
google is your friend. My mast boot is constructed from a tire inner tube and
contact cement. Works great.

The sticking to the mast part works great unless you need to remove the plug
for some reason (as I have -- twice). When I removed the plug on the 42 mast,
it took the paint with it. I had previously removed one from my 34 unpainted
mast, and used KY jelly (water soluble) to help get it off.
I’d also like pics of the windlass in the locker. On my list of things to
do. Appreciate it! st...@stevefranks.work

I think the idea when you set it up is to sand the mast a bit to make it rough
and spray mold release or coat the collar with Vaseline so it sticks to the
mast but not the boat.
If I ever redo mine I am going to make a “muffin top” to keep water out better.

Spar-tite is supposed to work for annual un-stepping/re-stepping, but I share
your concern. I especially like the first time the mast comes out and the
Spar-tite plug “lets go” of the boat, creating a 60-foot pogostick.
For what it’s worth, the last time I removed my mast with the Spar-tite
I would take the spar down in my 39 every year, and SparTite worked splendidly
for that. Just make sure you clean the mast good around the partners so it
sticks good, and make sure you put some Vaseline or something on the collar so
it comes out. Also make sure it doesn’t taper towards the
I used urethane from Spar-Tight and it works 1,000 times better than
wood wedges IMHO. It is a bit of a pain to set up though.

I thought I had the windless install documented but alas I cannot find any
