Re: Stus-List NMEA 0183 vs. 2000 Wiring Compatibility

Since the NMEA2K conductors usually run from the top of the mast to the back of the boat and supply power to all the devices in between, the voltage drop is a significant problem even if you use the recommended cables. Using the NMEA 0183 cable which doesn't usually supply power to all the

Re: Stus-List Toe Rail Cleat (revisited)

Hi Rick, Good points. Two reasons for a mid ship cleat. 1. Not all docks (and Piers) have mid cleats. 2. The chocks at the bow and stern of my C are not big enough for 2-5/8" dock lines, so chaffing is an issue. Gary S/V Kaylarah ~~~_/)~~ On Wed, Jun 27, 2018 at 10:59 AM, Rick

Stus-List Toe Rail Cleat (revisited)

A couple of weeks back there was a discussion about toe rail cleats. I was unhappy with the Johnson Toe Rail Cleat , so I decided to make my own using a Schaefer 8" Black Aluminum Cleat

Stus-List Force 10 Oven Thermostat

Has anyone found a way to retrofit an oven thermostat into an older 3 burner Force 10 range (circa 1990)? Newer Force 10 ranges have a thermostat, while older ones do not. Gary S/V Kaylarah C 37+ East Greenwich, RI, USA ~~~_/)~~ ___

Re: Stus-List Below deck auto pilot installation for C 40 (David)

Tom, If by victimless support, you mean the vertical piece of 1.5" plywood attached to the rudder tube (and the hull and cockpit floor), it supports the cockpit floor and keeps the now cut rudder tube aligned. It is an essential part of the hull structure at that point. I used a Sawzall to cut

On Kaylarah (37+) I had to reinforce the rudder assembly and then cut the rudder tube to insert the Edson Rudder Arm. See here . It works extremely well. Gary S/V Kaylarah '90 C 37+ East Greenwich, RI, USA ~~~_/)~~

Re: Stus-List Auto pilot upgrade

I had a ST4000 on my 35 Mk II. I was never happy with it. Went with a below deck unit, and never looked back. If you are not handy enough to install it yourself, it can be an expensive undertaking. Gary S/V Kaylarah '90 C 37+ ~~~_/)~~ On Fri, May 25, 2018 at 5:58 PM, Allan Hester

Re: Stus-List Raymarine Autopilot gone mad!

Tom, There information in your email isn't clear enough to offer a thoughtful diagnosis, but if you are considering a below deck auto pilot, I can offer the following advice. I would suggest a wheel pilot is insufficient to handle a boat the size of a 37+, so you should consider a below
