Sam I did have a similar issue myself. I found that by taking a 1ft piece of 3/8ths twisted Cable to feed it in over the sheaves to begin the process at the top of the mast attached to a drop line works best. The twisted cable acted as the weight. On my 35 I was able to take out the bottom pulley

Stus-List Rig shroud and stay Tuning

2018-05-18 Thread Rodney Meryweather via CnC-List
All I would like to know if there are any documented Rig Tuning specs for a C 35 Mk1 available.  Last weekend tuned it with a Loose P2 model and it ran well but the Aft stay and Center Shrouds were to big for the P2. I have attained the Loose P3 model and am looking for approximate settings that

The engine and gear ratio, together with the engine power, are critical for any propeller sizing. When choosing an engine &/or propeller for your boat, it is important to consider the effect of the gearbox ratio on the propeller. Most marine diesel engines have a reduction gearbox, which makes

Growing up on the Sea Coast of Maine I saw this on a regular basis. During my stint in the Military I was the Craftmaster of a 100 vessel with twin screws. The twin screws make all the difference of laying a vessel up along side or into a narrow berth if you know what you are doing. Sent from

Not that this will help with the Nut problem, but I changed out my electronics and depth sounder so my chart plotter/depth display now gets its depth readings from a "In-Hull" transducer that shoots the beam through the hull. The transducer screws to a mount. The mount is glued/epoxied in place

David This sounds like one of two issues but most likely an electrical sign wave issue, with possible EMI interference also. I have seen this before. Either shield your power cable (takes care of EMI) or and I recommend this, put a power conditioner in front of all of your
