Re: Stus-List Stuffing box restuffing

Just did mine yesterday. You most likely have a 7/8”shaft (assuming the Yanmar 2QM15 engine). You will need ¼” square packing and as was said, three wraps. The stuff the prop specialist sold me is GTU, which is black and a fiber product. There are others, but this stuff is really slippery. It

Re: Stus-List racing a C 24

Get one of those little stoves that restaurants use for heating things at the table. I am afraid you may be disappointed with the Corinthians. I have heard that most of them have big fast cruisers….. I am staying with PHRF just because. I’ll check after the Annapolis to St. Michaels race and

Re: Stus-List genoa cars and tracks - C 30 MK1 1979 (Steven Tattrie)

With tracks directly behind the shrouds, my 30-1 ‘s 155% genoa hits the spreader and shroud at about the same time. I think that seven degrees on a rather wide boat is pushing it, it seems the boat is not able to respond. Just my experience. Gary #593 From: CnC-List

Re: Stus-List Advise on cutting fiberglass

There are a lot of sources for ‘fein’ tools, such as Lowe’s and I’m sure Home Depot. I got one at Harbor Freight, figuring it will outlive me for the few cuts I will use it for. Gary From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Dave S via CnC-List Sent: Sunday,

Re: Stus-List Second bilge pump

What kind of bilge pump do you have now? And where is it? My 30-1 had an original equipment Whale Gusher hand pump with a 1 ½ inch hose going to the mast area of the bilge and the exit hose exiting out of the port side just under the rub rail in the area near the winch. I added an electric pump in

Re: Stus-List genoa cars and tracks - C 30 MK1 1979

I have long tracks which start about two feet aft of the shrouds and are even with them across-wise. They are about eight feet long. The 140+/- sheets near the forward end of the gate and the 155 sheets mid-to aft in the gate. The clew of the ‘working jib’ which may be original to the 1980 boat

Re: Stus-List Removing Starter...

Can you get a flat ratchet wrench in there? All you need for swing room is one click. They have an open end on one end and a box (ratcheting) on the other. I got mine at Sears, but I've seen them at Lowe's and elsewhere. Gary From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf

Re: Stus-List Fuel Tank Cleaning/Removal

I vote for plastic, even if you have to do some cutting. My 1980 boat had the original aluminum tank which worked great until, at the end of last year when I noticed a bit of red liquid in the area around the tank. It has now been recycled somewhere because it had many small pinholes in its

Re: Stus-List Mast Step Pitch & Helm Balance

Randy and Lee…. The tree stump that C designed for the 30-1 is super stiff. Pre bend is pretty much fiction. I have a 4 to 1 backstay adjuster on my split backstay and the only thing it does when I haul on it as hard as possible is stiffen the forestay. Randy, you should go with your plan

Re: Stus-List Mast Step Pitch & Helm Balance

I agree with you. The three supports on Penniless are level, the oak block sits on them and is level with the floorboards, but about 3/8 inch higher (I do have the teak and holly sole, which some of the earlier boats did not have). When my mast is in its normal position, the base sits in the

Re: Stus-List Automatic Bilge Pump? Recommendations?

As I share the same design (30-1) with you and have that really deep sump right under the mast, I have agonized over this issue a bunch. First, you have to get all the water out or your sump will always be wet and your mast step will degrade. Second, if you come up with a good way to install a

Re: Stus-List Bilge Pump for C 29-2

Tom, which pump did you buy? I am in the same situation as you and Michael Brown – little room for a pump (30-1). Water collects down there and helps soften the mast step, which is not good. I managed to get a small Rule pump in the sump when the mast was out - which is working OK (with a check

Re: Stus-List Bottom Painting -- Anyone Spray?

My friend who finished second overall and first in class at last year's Newport to Bermuda race sprayed his bottom (Cal 40). Used a number of thin coats of some expensive new paint. We have also sprayed Balto-plate. I think Vivid may work with a sprayer, as it is rather thin. Talk to the vendors.
